January 1 is the Octave of Christmas, and the start of the New Year. This is also the feast of the Circumcision of Christ, His first spilling of His blood for all mankind. Especially since the Second Vatican Council, the emphasis has changed to celebrate the Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of Christ, and as a day of prayer for world peace.
Twelfth Day is Epiphany, January 6;
Candlemas (the blessing of the candles) is February 2; See: Candlemas
The Feast of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary is February 2.

Feast day of the Holy Innocents, Martyrs, is December 28;
