A bit about Epiphany

Revelation

  In Christianity, the epiphany refers to a realization that Christ is the son of God.  Don’t confuse this date with the Orthodox Christmas, which is for Churches that follow the Julian calendar.   The Gregorian calendar, which more accurately accounts for leap years is recognized by everyone else.  Orthodox Christians follow the first testament of the bible not the second testament or any other versions. 

In 2014, Epiphany landed on January 6th, Orthodox Christmas on the 7th.  Protestant believers don’t understand the significance behind this holiday which is mostly observed by Catholic & Anglican Christians.  It’s all about the Three Kings Day and the Twelfth Day or Night of Christmas or rather.... the last day of the Christmas Season.  

Some faiths make honour of when the wise men visit the Christ Child, some put emphasis on the baptism of Jesus by John and some commemorate Jesus’s miracle of turning water into wine. 

Eventually the word epiphany has been come to be known as when a person has a sudden, intuitive perception or insight.  An Ah Ha moment! This is the magical - metaphysical - spiritual aspect of revelation.  For a deity to suddenly appear, we have to accept the manifestation of spirit.  It appears religion is full of psychic mediumship. Epiphany is proof that you believe in Spirit. Ta Da!
