Enjoy this time of hibernation, dreams and “tearing it up” a little!
However you like to celebrate, remember to spread the love and do what you can to lift someone else up.
Calling ourselves “Scar Clan” emerged through the threads of love and the tapestry of long life, and has bound us together in a unique bond, marked by shared experiences and cherished memories. As we gather before our Dia de los Muertos altar, we long for the day when we can reunite with our ancestors, celebrating the eternal connection that runs through our veins.
With every offering placed upon the altar, we honor the past and anticipate the future, knowing that our love will guide us to that sacred heart where our ancestors await, ready to welcome us into their timeless embrace.
We create an altar and invite our ancestors to return home and visit. During this week we celebrate life and love together as we offer remembrance and gifts.
