All Fool's Day,also known as April Fool's Day,is celebrated annually on the first day of April.It is a time for the traditional playing of pranks upon unsuspecting people...the victim of such a prank being called an April Fool.
The origins of this custom are somewhat uncertain,but may have initially been related to the arrival of Spring in late March,at which time Mother Nature is said to "fool" the human race with sudden and fickle changes in the weather...showers one minute and sunshine the next.The playing of practical jokes,however,dates back to Ancient Rome and such activities were an integral part of the Hilaria celebrations held on March 25,a celebration which would again appear to be associated with the coming of Spring and the Vernal Equinox,held to honor the resurrection of Attis,Roman God of Vegetation who was linked to the seasonal cycle.In England,an ancient legend states that April Fool's Day commemorates the fruitless mission of the Rook (or European Crow) which was sent out in search of land from Noah's flood-encircled ark.

Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrated in much of North America,generally observed as an expression of gratitude,usually to God.The most common view of its origin is that it was to give thanks to God for the bounty of the autumn harvest.In the United States,the holiday is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November.In Canada,where the harvest generally ends earlier in the year,the holiday is celebrated on the second Monday in October,which is observed as Columbus Day or protested as Indigenous Peoples Day in the United States.
Thanksgiving is traditionally celebrated with a feast shared among friends and family.In the United States,it is an important family holiday,and people often travel across the country to be with family members for the holiday.The Thanksgiving holiday is generally a "four-day" weekend in the United States,in which Americans are given the relevant Thursday and Friday off.Thanksgiving is almost entirely celebrated at home,unlike the Fourth of July or Christmas,which are associated with a variety of shared public experiences (fireworks,caroling,etc.)

The Date of Easter
Prior to A.D.325,Easter was variously celebrated on different days of the week,including Friday,Saturday,and Sunday.In that year,the Council of Nicaea was convened by emperor Constantine.It issued the Easter Rule which states that Easter shall be celebrated on the first Sunday that occurs after the first full moon on or after the vernal equinox.However,a caveat must be introduced here.The "full moon" in the rule is the ecclesiastical full moon,which is defined as the fourteenth day of a tabular lunation,where day 1 corresponds to the ecclesiastical New Moon.It does not always occur on the same date as the astronomical full moon.The ecclesiastical "vernal equinox" is always on March 21.Therefore,Easter must be celebrated on a Sunday between the dates of March 22 and April 25.

The vigil of this feast is popularly called "Hallowe'en" or "Halloween".]
Solemnity celebrated on the first of November.It is instituted to honour all the saints,known and unknown,and,according to Urban IV,to supply any deficiencies in the faithful's celebration of saints' feasts during the year.
In the early days the Christians were accustomed to solemnize the anniversary of a martyr's death for Christ at the place of martyrdom.In the fourth century,neighbouring dioceses began to interchange feasts,to transfer relics,to divide them,and to join in a common feast; as is shown by the invitation of St.Basil of Caesarea (397) to the bishops of the province of Pontus.Frequently groups of martyrs suffered on the same day,which naturally led to a joint commemoration.In the persecution of Diocletian the number of martyrs became so great that a separate day could not be assigned to each.But the Church,feeling that every martyr should be venerated,appointed a common day for all.The first trace of this we find in Antioch on the Sunday after Pentecost.We also find mention of a common day in a sermon of St.Ephrem the Syrian (373),and in the 74th homily of St.John Chrysostom (407).At first only martyrs and St.John the Baptist were honoured by a special day.Other saints were added gradually,and increased in number when a regular process of canonization was established; still,as early as 411 there is in the Chaldean Calendar a "Commemoratio Confessorum" for the Friday after Easter.In the West Boniface IV,13 May,609,or 610,consecrated the Pantheon in Rome to the Blessed Virgin and all the martyrs,ordering an anniversary.Gregory III (731-741) consecrated a chapel in the Basilica of St.Peter to all the saints and fixed the anniversary for 1 November.A basilica of the Apostles already existed in Rome,and its dedication was annually remembered on 1 May.Gregory IV (827-844) extended the celebration on 1 November to the entire Church.The vigil seems to have been held as early as the feast itself.The octave was added by Sixtus IV
