About Dia de Muertos

Dia de Muertos, or the Day of the Dead, is a Mexican holiday that honors deceased loved ones. The celebration is believed to originate from indigenous cultures such as the Aztecs, who believed that death was not the end but rather a continuation of life in a different form.

The holiday is celebrated from October 31st to November 2nd, which coincides with the Catholic All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day. During this time, families create elaborate altars, or ofrendas, decorated with marigolds, candles, and food offerings to welcome the spirits of their loved ones back to the world of the living.

Dia de Muertos is a time for remembrance and celebration, not mourning. It is a time to honor the lives of those who have passed, and to keep their memory alive. Many communities hold parades, dances, and other festivities during the holiday, with colorful costumes and skull face paint being a common sight.

Overall, Dia de Muertos is a beautiful and vibrant celebration of life and death, and a unique way for Mexican communities to remember and honor their loved ones who have passed away.
