Día de los Mu***os is a time we celebrate, honor, and remember those who are no longer with us. For some, this season brings forward recent loss — and for others, it reopens or reconnects us to grief we’ve carried for years.
El Día de Mu***os helps us process grief by inviting us to talk about our loved ones, share their stories, and keep their memory alive within our families and communities. The ofrendas — the altars — are not just displays. They are narratives. They’re a way to continue the relationship, to make meaning, and to heal.
Full transparency — I did not grow up practicing Día de Mu***os. It wasn’t until I got older that I connected spiritually with this tradition. And this year, my grief feels more present than usual — and I find myself more drawn to the healing practices of my ancestors. It feels deeply meaningful to intentionally connect with my past and spend time with those I’ve lost.
Tell the story of your people. Speak their name. Your grief is allowed.
