    Photography: Mike Kraut Today and tomorrow, people around the world are celebrating Dia de los Muertos, also known as the Day of the Dead. For families, this is a holiday to pay tribute to los Muertos. Unlike the previous day of Halloween, the Day of the Dead is not a scary thing, but a moment to commemorate loved ones who have passed away. Traditionally, the celebration of the main Mexican heritage (Aztec ritual) will be held from November 1st to 2nd. During this time, people go to their family cemeteries and decorate their loved ones graves or ofrendas (changes) in a festive, fun, colorful, and decorative way.

Then, on November 2nd (All Souls Day), smaller skulls are replaced with larger decorative skulls to pass on to adults. These skulls are beautifully decorated because their names are scribbled on the skulls of the deceased. Hand-drawn floral swirls and other quirky designs are painted on the skulls eyes, cheekbones, and around the head. The skull term in Spanish, Calaveras, is not the only decoration during the celebration. Even colors have symbolic meanings: yellow represents death, purple represents sadness, white represents purity and hope. In addition to sugar skulls and paper flowers, departing photos are usually placed on the altar with real flowers, candles, religious symbols, and
