The Season of Epiphany
Next to Easter, Epiphany is the oldest season of the Church year, and the Day of Epiphany is one of the Church’s great festivals—alongside Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost. Because it often falls on a weekday, it does not always receive the prominence it deserves.
The word “Epiphany” means “Manifestation.”
It is the season when light shines in darkness, God reveals Himself in Jesus Christ, and the glory of God is made known through Christ.
Throughout history, Epiphany has been known by many names, including:
• Feast of the Manifestation
• Feast of Lights
• Feast of the Appearing of Christ
• Feast of the Three Kings
• The Twelfth Day
The Season of Epiphany lasts between six and nine weeks, depending on the date of Easter.
The liturgical colours used during Epiphany help express its meaning:
- White is used on three significant days—Epiphany Day, the Baptism of Our Lord (Epiphany 1), and the Transfiguration—symbolizing light, glory, victory, and celebration.
- Green is used on the remaining Sundays, representing growth.
During the Season of Epiphany, we are called to grow into a deeper understanding of who Christ is—the Son of God—so that His light may be revealed in us and through us.
