The Day of the Dead offering is a sign of recognition and veneration for people who have died, where they place food or objects that were to their liking.


Elements of Day of the Dead offering

According to tradition, on November 1 and 2, souls leave the place where they now live to visit their loved ones who still live and enjoy, for one night, the things they liked when they lived.

And although the Day of the Dead offering does not have definite rules about what to wear, since everything depends on the tastes of each person, however, there are some elements that are necessary and that are part of the tradition, like which ones? We tell you.

Candle or candles


They symbolize the element of fire, which helps souls illuminate the way home.

Sometimes they are placed in the form of a cross although that depends on you.

Pictures


You can place loose photographs, framed, portraits drawn or painted.

This is done to remind the person and define who the offer is dedicated to.

flowers


The flower of cempazúchil is the most used due to its beauty and smell, which attracts souls.

They can be put in the shape of a cross or forming a path to guide the way to souls.

Purple or white flowers are also widely used.

 Salt


It is a symbol of purification that must be placed in a container.

Incense


In the past, copal was more commonly used, characterized by an aromatic smoke that attracts souls, as well as being a symbol of prayer and purification.

When you can not get it, aromatic herbs (such as rosemary and chamomile) and incense, which have the same effect, are also used.

Confetti


The colorful papers with figures of skulls, pumpkins or tombstones, are placed as garland or tablecloth of the offering.

Representation of the four elements


The candles represent fire; the paper chopped to the air; the fruit to the earth and the water glasses to this vital liquid.

Skulls


They can be sugar, chocolate, amaranth or plaster.

The objective of using them is to remember the final destiny of each person.

Pan de muerto


It can be sweetened, with sesame or salted.

In some cases its shape is round and in others it resembles the human body.


Food and drink


After a long journey from the other world, the souls arrive tired because of what they need to rest and recover their energies.

For this, an extensive menu is ready and this usually includes tamales, pozole, mole, sweets and the favorite drinks of the loved one who left.

On some occasions, cigars are invited.

Religious articles


The crosses, crucifixes, rosaries and images of saints can not be missing in the offerings.

Various objects


It includes all the objects that he loved in life to the person as toys (in the case of children), toiletries, books, jewelry, office supplies, gadgets, etc.

The final design of the offering will depend on the deceased and the family. Just remember to make it very special so that your loved one is well received.
