In the Catholic Church, Christmas is celebrated from December 25th to January 6th, also known as the Epiphany or Three Kings' Day. This period is known as the Christmas season, or the Octave of Christmas, during which the church celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ and the manifestation of his divine nature. The season is marked by special liturgical celebrations, prayer services, and various customs and traditions. The season ends on January 6th with the Feast of the Epiphany, which commemorates the visit of the three wise men to the baby Jesus.
