 Assumption of Mary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Assumption is important to many Catholics as the Virgin Mary's heavenly birthday (the day that Mary was received into heaven).
Her acceptance into the glory of heaven is seen by them as the symbol of the promise made by Jesus to all enduring Christians that they too will be received into paradise.
The Feast of the Assumption is a Public Holiday in many countries, including France, Italy, and Spain.

 MARY'S ASSUMPTION:IRRELEVANT AND IRREVERENT?
The dogma of the Assumption means that the Virgin Mary now experiences in heaven that union of glorified body and soul which her son enjoys.
Second, because, resting on the claim of the Pope's authority to define dogmas, the Assumption is regarded as the most recent and perhaps most vivid demonstration of the Catholic Church's alleged penchant for "inventing" new dogmas without warrant in Scripture and then imposing them of the faithful as infallibly true.
Through her glorious Assumption, Blessed Virgin Mary has begun to reign with Christ as all Christians shall at the Resurrection of the Dead.

 The Assumption of Mary
Catholic Encylopedia on the Feast of the Assumption.
On another level, the Assumption epitomizes the reconciliation of the material and spiritual world, as the human Mary enters "body and soul to heavenly glory." Carl Jung, the transpersonal psychologist, concluded that the doctrine of the Assumption reflected an acceptance of the physical world.
The literal significance the Assumption, of Mary's body rising from the earth toward the heavens, should not be underestimated.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Feast of the Assumption
[Note: By promulgating the Bull Munificentissimus Deus, 1 November, 1950, Pope Pius XII declared infallibly that the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary was a dogma of the Catholic Faith.
Today, the belief in the corporeal assumption of Mary is universal in the East and in the West; according to Benedict XIV (De Festis B.V.M., I, viii, 18) it is a probable opinion, which to deny were impious and blasphemous.
The Greek Church continues this feast to 23 August, inclusive, and in some monasteries of Mount Athos it is protracted to 29 August (Menaea Graeca, Venice, 1880), or was, at least, formerly.

 Immaculate Conception and Assumption -
The mere fact that the Church teaches the doctrine of the Assumption as something definitely true is a guarantee that it is true.
Most arguments in favor of the Assumption, as developed over the centuries by the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, concern not so much scriptural references (there are few that speak even indirectly to the matter), but rather the fittingness of the privilege.
There is a certain sense in their argument, and if the doctrine of the Assumption were what they think it is, the argument would carry some weight.

 Munificentissimus Deus
So it was that the Feast of the Assumption was elevated from the rank which it had occupied from the beginning among the other Marian feasts to be classed among the more solemn celebrations of the entire liturgical cycle.
Sergius I prescribed what is known as the litany, or the stational procession, to be held on four Marian feasts, he specified together the Feasts of the Nativity, the Annunciation, the Purification, and the Dormition of the Virgin Mary.(14) Again, St.
On the feast day of the Assumption, while explaining the prophet's words: "I will glorify the place of my feet,"(27) he stated it as certain that the divine Redeemer had bedecked with supreme glory his most beloved Mother from whom he had received human flesh.
