Long version description:
Dia De Los Muertos was a very big deal in my Mexican-American household. The most important manifestation of this day for my family is La Ofrenda, the altar of offerings to your loved ones that included many items to honor them.
Music to communicate with them and celebrate our cultural roots
Cempasúchil or Mexican Marigold as symbols of the sun to guide the spirits
Roses for eternal love and adornment
Pan de Muertos to nourish our ancestors on their visit
Papel Picado (paper pattern crafts) for festive decoration and to guide them back like cobwebs back to their spiritual home
And finally, La Calavera Catrina, the ultimate symbol to honor the dead, remind the living of the mortal and transitory nature of life.
Calaveras are typically ornate and personalized to create a more meaningful connection to each loved one.
