Day of the Dead ~ Día de los Muertos
Day of the Dead is a holiday celebrated in central and southern Mexico during the autumn days of November 1 & 2. Even though this coincides with the Catholic holiday called All Soul's & All Saint’s Day, the indigenous people have combined this with their own ancient beliefs of honoring their deceased loved ones.
They believe that the gates of heaven are opened at midnight on October 31, and the spirits of all deceased children (angelitos) are allowed to reunite with their families for 24 hours. On November 2, the spirits of the adults come down to participate in the festivities that are prepared for them.
