| My Day of the Dead Marigold |
In memory...
The Day of the Dead is a holiday traditionally celebrated on November 1 and 2, though other days, such as October 31 or November 6, may be included depending on the locality. The multi-day holiday involves family and friends gathering to pay respects and remember friends and family members who have died.
Marigolds, known as "cempasúchil" or the "flower of the dead," are a central symbol of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) because their strong scent and vibrant color are believed to guide the spirits of the deceased back to their families.
