| | The Christian churches celebrate this with the feast of Annunciation on March 25, which is nine months before the feast of the Nativity of Jesus, or Christmas. | | | The first authentic allusions to it are in a canon, of the council of Toledo (656), and another of the council of Constantinople "in Trullo" (692), forbidding the celebration of all festivals in Lent, excepting the Lord's day and the Feast of the Annunciation. | | | In the Roman Catholic liturgical calendar, the feast is moved if necessary to prevent it from either falling on a Sunday, or during Holy Week or the week in which Easter occurs. |

| | It is hard to imagine the scene at the Annunciation, at that event commemorated in what a Syriac calendar once called 'the beginning and source of all other feasts', though Scriptures, the Fathers and the festal hymnography of the Church speak much of it. | | | With the Annunciation to the holy Mother of God, the Incarnation of Christ, the economy of God ever purposed and eternally intentioned, took place in the human, created order. | | | It is especially revealing that a number of icons of the Annunciation show Mary's heart being surrounded by daggers, swords, ominously indicating the tears that lie ahead. |

| | It suggests that the Annunciation is distinctive because it was designed to relate in wholly original ways to devotional practices that occurred inside the chapel on March 25, the feast day of the Annunciation. | | | The importance of the divine office on the Feast of the Annunciation, an office that came to be known throughout Europe as the Missa Aurea, or Golden Mass, has been overlooked in most discussions of the Arena Chapel.(10) Yet, thanks to the patron's efforts, the frescoes achieved maximum exposure during this Mass. | | | At major churches the Golden Mass was often elaborated by a small musical play in which members of the clergy enacted the roles of the Angel and the Virgin Mary.(11) This happened at the cathedral of Padua itself during this period. |
