Remember. Respect. Celebrate.

While we should take every opportunity to cultivate love, kindness, and compassion, Dia de Mu***os offers us an opportunity to celebrate not only the beautiful memories and lives of family and friends, but also to show generosity of heart by honoring those who died alone, without family or friends to remember them.

During these challenging times, let's also make the effort to remember fathers, mothers, children, and youth who died while crossing borders seeking a better life, some whose bodies may still lie undiscovered in deserts or mountains, also, for those who have been killed or died while in custody.

Your reverent prayers and candlelight will help guide them home to the Ancestors.

🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️

October 27, for those who died alone without family to remember them. Also, animal companions. Light a white candle.

October 28, for those who died in an accident or other unexpected manner. Light a white candle.

October 29, for those who died by drowning. Light a white candle.

October 30, for those who died unidentified and without food. Light a white candle and place bread/food for them on the altar.

October 31 to November 1: Vigil and ofrenda dedicated to Infants, children, and those unable to be born. Candles, food, baby formula, a sippy cup with milk, or snacks appropriate to the age of the deceased.

November 2, Vigil for Adult dead. Customary offerings of candles, food, and beverages for adults.

November 3, Light one last candle, offer a prayer for their journey, thank them for their visit, say goodbye, and ask that they return next year. Mindfully, take down your altar. Food can be given to wildlife if suitable.

In honor of our most high and holy Ancestors and future generations of good ancestors.

🕯️Do not leave candles unattended.

I hope my daughter is beautiful
in the wildest of ways
like tree roots
reaching deep into the earth
fierce, not cute

and growing as deeply
as her branches will rise
reaching to the beckoning skies
and down into the core
always aware, there is more

I hope my daughter is free
like sea foam is free
a product of oceans commanded by moon
finding space where there was no room
and riding life as it is cresting
flying, finding, creating, nesting

I hope my daughter is beautiful
in the way that wind is not dutiful
conducting the garden
to bend and sway
and knowing the only possible way
is to join that dance

and be blown as you blow
it’s how she’ll grow
I hope she will know

that beauty is like fire and ice
it rarely thrives in sweet or nice
but rather in the dusty ground

of which her growing place is found

I hope my daughter’s beauty bound

with all that wildness

swirling round.
