In African, Australian, and even Native American tribes skulls are very big juju. Skulls of the dead were retained and placed prominently at entryways. Ancient Celts viewed the skull as symbolic of the anima, or the spark of life. In Alchemy, the Skull is considered the Throne of Higher Intelligence. In Mexico, the skull is a representation of Impermanence, Transition, and Freedom. The skull represents the faint shadows that our physical body leaves behind upon our death. Sugar Skulls are often used to decorate the ofrendas on Dia de los Muertos which is November 1st and 2nd. Feathers, beads or colored foils are “glued” on with the icing to create highly ornate skulls.

Skull Symbology: Mortality, Protection, Intimidation, Death, Intellect, and Warning.
