The Day of the Dead is a traditional Mexican celebration that honors the dead. It takes place on November 1 and 2 and is linked to the Catholic celebrations of All Souls' Day and All Saints. In Quechua it is called Aya markay quilla, in Aymara Wiñay Pacha.2 It is a festival that is celebrated mainly in Mexico. In 2008 Unesco declared the festival as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity of Mexico. The passage from life to death is an emblematic moment that has caused admiration, fear and uncertainty to the human being throughout history. For many years, in various cultures beliefs have been generated around death that have managed to develop a whole series of rites and traditions either to venerate it, honor it, scare it and even to make fun of it. Mexico is a country rich in culture and traditions; One of the main aspects that make up its identity as a nation is the conception of life, death and all the traditions and beliefs that revolve around them. In this design I resorted to original symbols of various cultures of my country. Violet is the color with the highest frequency, it is the 7th. Indian chakra that symbolizes transmutation or transformation.
