In Mexico, death rites date from pre-Hispanic rituals represented in murals, painted pottery, monuments, and artifacts, which shows how the Day of the Dead has its origins in the rituals practiced by the indigenous peoples of the Americas. Its precedents date to more than 3000 years ago when the Olmecs and subsequent Toltecs, Mixtecs, Zapotecs, Maya, and Aztecs honored death.Those who passed are alive in our memories. A continuous echo that at certain occasions becomes louder. As the only answer to many of our questions, death is an integral part of life, and the living and the dead meet in this day to emphasize the importance of death in the cycle of life.
It's Dia De los Muertos today. What better day than a truly Mexican holiday to celebrate Mexican drag?

ReplyDeleteIt's an all-important part of living. And that makes it worth a day of its own to honor. Happy Day of the Dead. XOXO
Another great tradition monotheistic religions tried to destroy.
ReplyDeleteLove the illustrations. And that song is fun, too, as is the video. Hope all is well, my dear. It's a wonderful opportunity for us to reflect and honor those we have lost along the way... Kizzes.
