November 1st

 All Saint's Day

To some people today, November 1st, is known as All saint's Day. However, that practice has only come into common usage in the last two centuries as to the Catholic church today is All Soul's Day. A day given to those who for some reason are unable to have a Christian burial.

After all, yesterday was Halloween to the people of Spain and her descendants Noche de los Muertos (Night of the Dead); a time when they can talk to their ancestors.
