Hola~~~
I’m so excited about the newest episode of Uranus Is Blue (no pun intended) with Elizabeth Vega, The Mistress of Death. I first heard Elizabeth on the UIB internet radio show when she was spoke directly to my soul. Her interview was during a time when my community/tribe was experiencing much loss and she gave perspective and opened up dialogue that I had to that point been very uncomfortable with.
In the newest episode of UIB Elizabeth Vega discusses the origins of Dia de Los Muertos, the Mexican Day of the Dead, as she and some volunteers assemble a community altar to the ancestors.
