~/annunciation
March 25. Some argue the Incarnation begins here rather than at the Nativity, the Word made flesh at conception per the Creed. Never transferred in the East, even in Holy Week; yields to Holy Week in the West.
vs
~/corpus-christi
Instituted by Urban IV in Transiturus de hoc mundo (1264), the first papally mandated universal feast of the Latin Church, office by Aquinas. Absent from the East, which keeps eucharistic devotion inside the Liturgy rather than in a feast of its own.
