Even really, what are these strange skulls?
“Calavera” skulls have their origins in Mexican culture. In this Latin American country, they serve as symbols of the famous “Day of the Dead”, or “Dia de los Muertos” in Spanish.
This popular holiday actually combines elements of Catholicism and ancient Aztec symbolism with some flair.
While crosses and some religious icons are clearly associated with the Christian faith, others (for example the lucky skull) have a slightly more… equivocal meaning.
However, make no mistake: this is not a sad symbol of death, but rather an enhancement of life.
In fact, the Day of the Dead is an opportunity for Mexicans to honor their loved ones who passed away too soon and to remember them together.
Some even claim that on this day, certain spirits return to Earth to participate in the celebration with the living!
In short, if the Mexican “calavera” earrings you see here are so colorful, it is precisely for this reason.
Viewing death with such positivity is actually unique to Mexico.
While everywhere else, the commemorations that celebrate our loved ones departed are dark and gloomy, the Day of the Dead and the colorful skulls associated with it exude joy and good humor.
The message sent to us is clear: only by accepting death and celebrating those who have passed can we get closer to life.
So, whether you are going through a painful loss, appreciate the culture of Mexico or simply love its style, these lucky earrings will surely help you!
