Day of the Dead (Día de los Muertos) is yearly celebrated in Mexico and many other countries during the last days of October through the first week of November. A time to communicate with the ancestors, it honors the death-transition from one life to another. Blending the Roman Catholic All Saints' Day (November 1st) and All Souls' Day (November 2nd) with pre-Hispanic Meso-American indigenous Nahua traditions (Aztecs, Toltecas, Tlaxcaltec, Chichimec, Tecpanec as well as the non-Nahua Maya) death becomes a colorful dance, where souls never die, they rest in Mictlan.

According to legend it takes the soul about 3 years to reach Mictlan and finally rest. That's too long I wanna sleep right away.👼
