Velvet Verbosity’s Blog Find of the Week
I guess I’m still in Halloween mode. Maybe it’s because I have one more party to go to. If I’m going to be accurate here it’s a Dia de los Muertos – Day of the Dead party. And Dia de los Muertos is pretty different from Halloween in history and tradition.
Dia de los Muertos, a primarily Mexican holiday, originated with the Aztecs who believed death was not to be feared as it signified the entrance to higher consciousness. Higher consciousness…Heaven? What I want to know is why all the good stuff happens after we die? What is UP with that?
Get back to me on that.
For now, for your entertainment, check out the Skull-A-Day blog.
