Why is New Years Day in the Gregorian calendar considered a holy day by the Catholic Church?
The first day of the month of January is dedicated to the god Janus the god of beginnings and openings. That is the Roman system and they are dedicated to the Triune god. They imposed it on Christianity and they adopted the pagan calendar on the same grounds. The New Year is the First day of the First month which is Abib. The Anglo Saxons kept the month of March as the New Year until the 18th century. Read the papers The Moon and the New Year (No. 213) and also God’s Calendar (No. 156).
