Christmas can fall on any day of the week. The other feasts are all Sundays.

Pleroma begins between October 9 and 15.

Christ the King falls between November 20 to 26. Never in December.

Advent begins between November 28 and December 3.

There are 42 days in Pleroma. Six weeks with seven days per week. The season is always 42 days long because it begins on a Sunday and ends the day before Christ the King, which is always on a Sunday.

There are Seven Days of Christ the King between Pleroma and Advent. Hmm. The Last Days of Ordinary Time.

In the spirit of Septuagesima, Sexagesima, Quinquagesima, and Quadragesima Sundays.

Not-so-ordinary time.

November 23: feast of Blessed Miguel Pro, SJ. Viva Cristo Re! Because the feast of Christ the King always falls between November 20 and 26, Pro's feast is always nearby: 20 21 22 23 24 25 26. Three times it comes a little after Christ the King, three times a little bit before, and once in a while the two feasts coincide on the 23rd.
