Residents of Tecomitl, located in the southern end of Mexico City, go to the community cemetery on November 2, 2024, to decorate the graves of their deceased loved ones with cempasuchil flowers and figures made from mud that, according to belief, receive their souls during the Day of the Dead festivities on November 2 in Mexico. The Day of the Dead in the indigenous vision implies the temporary return of the souls of the deceased, who return home, to the world of the living, to live with their relatives and nourish themselves with the essence of the food offered to them on the altars that are erected in their honor. The cempasuchil flower symbolizes the Day of the Dead in Mexico. Thanks to its color and aroma, it is one of the most representative elements of the offerings for the deceased. Its name comes from the Nahuatl Cempohualxochitl, which means ''Flower of twenty petals.'' During pre-Hispanic times, the Mexicas associate the yellow color of this flower with the sun, so they use it in altars, offerings, and burials dedicated to their dead that lead them to Mictlan, the underworld.
