There is something so beautiful about keeping a place for those we love, even after they’ve passed.
DĂa de Mu***os is a Mexican tradition with deep Indigenous roots—a time to honor loved ones through flowers, candlelight, offerings, and memories.
While customs and dates vary by community and family, this remembrance calendar shares:
October 27 — Beloved animals and pets.
October 28 — Those who died suddenly or tragically.
October 29 — Those who died by drowning.
October 30 — Forgotten souls and those with no one to remember them.
October 31 — Preparing the ofrenda and welcoming the departed.
November 1 — Children who have passed, lovingly called “angelitos.”
November 2 — Adults who have passed.
November 3 — A farewell as the observance closes in some traditions.
At SpiritKeepers Native American Church, we honor the beauty of this tradition and the communities who carry it forward.
Speak their names. Share their stories. Love remembers.
