The season of Epiphany begins on January 6, the day of Epiphany, and continues until Ash Wednesday. “Epiphany” means “manifestation” or “revelation” or “appearing.” On Epiphany we remember the Gentile wise men who followed a miraculous star to find Jesus, the Savior of all people. Throughout the Epiphany season we consider various occasions on which Jesus revealed to his disciples who he was and what he had come to do.
The liturgical color of the majority of the Epiphany season is green, which symbolizes life and growth in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
