Day of the Dead (Dia de las Muertos) Festival
October 31 - November 2, 2013 
Oaxaca, Mexico

Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), is often confused with Halloween, but this holiday is not about ghouls and goblins, but instead honors the dead and welcomes their souls home as a blessing. Altars and offerings are a way to remember family members who have passed into the afterlife. In this culture, the lines between life and death are blurred and the acceptance of mortality becomes a liberation from fear. Indeed, life and death live on parallel planes in Mexico. This beautiful festival has a profound life lesson that transcends life itself.
