What are the Posadas?
The Posadas is a traditional Mexican celebration that reenacts Mary and Joseph's search for lodging before the birth of Jesus. It is a joyous occasion that takes place during the nine days leading up to Christmas, with each day representing one month of Mary's pregnancy.
During the Posadas, participants form a procession, carrying images of Mary and Joseph, and go from house to house, asking for shelter. The hosts, representing innkeepers, may reject them until they find the designated "inn" where they are finally welcome. This symbolic journey is accompanied by prayers, songs, and Christmas carols.
