A federal holiday (observed Mon. Jan 2., 2017) in the United States, New Year's Day has its origin in Roman times, when sacrifices were offered to Janus, the two-faced Roman deity who looked back on the past and forward to the future.
Epiphany (Fri., Jan. 6, 2017)Epiphany (from Greek epiphaneia, "manifestation"), falls on the 12th day after Christmas. It commemorates the manifestation of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, as represented by the Magi, the baptism of Jesus, and the miracle of the wine at the marriage feast at Cana. One of the three major Christian festivals, along with Christmas and Easter. Epiphany originally marked the beginning of the carnival season preceding Lent, and the evening preceding it is known as Twelfth Night.
Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Birthday (Mon., Jan. 16, 2017)A federal holiday observed on the third Monday in January that honors the late civil rights leader. It became a federal holiday in 1986.
Chinese New Year (Mon., Jan. 28, 2017)The most important celebration in the Chinese calendar. Chinese months are reckoned by the lunar calendar, with each month beginning on the darkest day. New Year festivities traditionally start on the first day of the month and continue until the fifteenth, when the moon is brightest. In China, the New Year is a time for family reunions. In the United States, however, many early Chinese immigrants arrived without their families, and found a sense of community by celebrating the holiday through neighborhood associations.
Groundhog Day (Thurs., Feb. 2, 2017)Legend has it that if the groundhog sees his shadow, he'll return to his hole, and winter will last another six weeks.
Lincoln's Birthday (Sun., Feb. 12, 2017; observed Mon., Feb. 13, 2017)A holiday in a few states, this day was first formally observed in Washington, DC, in 1866, when both houses of Congress gathered for a memorial address in tribute to the assassinated president. In some places, it is combined with Washington's Birthday and celebrated as President's Day.
St. Valentine's Day (Tues., Feb. 14, 2017)Originally a pagan festival, the holiday eventually was recast as a Christian feast day in honor of St. Valentine-but there are at least three different early saints by that name. How the day became associated with romance remains obscure, and is further clouded by various fanciful legends.
