 | | Lady Day is an abridgement of the old term ‘Our Lady's day’ – a ‘gaudy day’ of the Catholic Church, and it represents the Christianisation of older, pagan Spring Equinox festivals, in the much the same way that St Patrick's Day and Easter do. | | | Lady Day was once considered to be the date of the Creation of the world as it was the date of the conception of Christ. | | | March 25, Lady Day, is also the Feast Day of St Dysmas. |

| | The Two Babylons: Christmas and Lady-day |
| | There is not a word in the Scriptures about the precise day of His birth, or the time of the year when He was born. | | | Even where the sun was the favourite object of worship, as in Babylon itself and elsewhere, at this festival he was worshipped not merely as the orb of day, but as God incarnate. | | | This tendency on the part of Christians to meet Paganism half-way was very early developed; and we find Tertullian, even in his day, about the year 230, bitterly lamenting the inconsistency of the disciples of Christ in this respect, and contrasting it with the strict fidelity of the Pagans to their own superstition. |

| | Spiritualitea: Lady Day, the Vernal Equinox by Mike Nichols |
| | The first, occurring on the fixed calendar day of March 25th in the old liturgical calendar, is called the Feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary (or B.V.M., as she was typically abbreviated in Catholic Missals). | | | But it was certainly more popular to the south, where people celebrated the holiday as New Year's Day, and claimed it as the first day of the first sign of the Zodiac, Aries. | | | In the Mabinogion myth reconstruction which I have proposed, this is the day on which the restored Llew takes his vengeance on Goronwy by piercing him with the sunlight spear. |

| | Venerating la Virgen de Guadalupe O'odham share in devotionas Our Lady's feast day nears Arizona Daily Star ® |
| | The cross-cultural passion for the Dec. 12 annual feast day stems from the indigenous connection to the story of the Virgen, and in the case of the Tohono O'odham, a devout Catholicism that has not faded over the many generations since Spanish Catholic missionaries converted the tribe in the 1600s. | | | She remembers feast days for La Virgen de Guadalupe when she was a young girl attending Our Lady of Guadalupe Church. | | | El Día de la Virgen de Guadalupe, which is Our Lady's feast day, is an important day not only for Latin Americans who revere the Virgen, but for American Indians also. |

| | Lady Day is the British name for Annunciation Day--the church festival commemorating Angel Gabriel's announcement to Mary that she was to give birth to Jesus (Luke 1:26-38). | | | In 1572, Pope Gregory XIII reformed the previously accepted Julian calendar, correcting errors which made the vernal equinox fall earlier and earlier in the calendar year. | | | One day you'll look at this entry and ask yourself: "Did I convert this date to the new style? |

| | Finally, except for the reference to Bastille Day, all of the poem's references to "foreign" and "past" history (the poem as well as consumer capitalism problematize the meaning of foreign and past) are references to texts. | | | In the prepolitical climate of O'Hara's day, this survivalism found expression in the highly ironized flamboyance of the camp ethic--"laughing to keep from crying"--which structured a whole subculture around the act of imagining a different relation to the existing world of too strictly authorized and legitimized sexual positions. | | | O'Hara had heard Lady Day sing the previous autumn at the Five Spot Cafe, where Thelonious Monk regularly played. |

| | The Deacon's Homily for Lady Day |
| | Tuesday is the feast of the Annunciation to the Blessed Virgin Mary, called, in the tradition of the English-speaking peoples, “Lady Day.” It is truly a feast day of our Lady; but it is also the feast of the Incarnation. | | | And it would not matter what they say, except that, as the Fathers of the Church unanimously taught, that which is not united to God is not saved. | | | As such it is one of the most important festivals of the Church year; but, as it always occurs during Lent, the festivity is generally reserved for Christmastide. |

| | The principal feasts honoring Mary are those of the Assumption (Aug. 15), the Birthday of Our Lady (Sept. 8), the Immaculate Conception (Dec. 8), the Purification (Feb. 2: see Candlemas), and the Annunciation or Lady Day (Mar. 25). | | | Catholics maintain that the veneration (hyperdulia) accorded Mary, while higher than that accorded any other creature, is infinitely lower than the worship (latria) reserved for Jesus. | | | Apparitions of the Virgin have been reported since ancient times, and some have led to new cultuses and shrines, typically associated with cures. |

| | village voice > people > Lusty Lady by Rachel Kramer Bussel |
| | February 1st, 2005 10:28 AM Last Valentine's Day, I was supposed to attend a party where everyone had to dress as a V object. | | | But as the year wore on, and I'd laughingly respond to the kind question "When did you two break up?" with a slightly bitter laugh and "Valentine's Day," I started to hear people saying, "Me too." "Really?" I'd ask excitedly, glad that I'd found a kindred breakup soul, and we'd eagerly exchange stories. | | | In some cases, the importance of the most romantic day of the year forces people to assess the state of their relationships. |
