Da de la Candelaria, celebrated on February 2, 2025, is a big non secular vacation in lots of nations, notably in Mexico and different elements of Latin America. The day commemorates the presentation of Jesus Christ on the temple and the purification of the Virgin Mary, 40 days after the beginning of Jesus.
The vacation is also called Candlemas, because it marks the tip of the Christmas season and the start of the liturgical 12 months. In Mexico, Da de la Candelaria is related to the custom of consuming tamales and atole, a conventional heat corn-based drink. Additionally it is customary to decorate up child Jesus collectible figurines and current them at church for a blessing.
