Las Posadas 101: Gen Z Edition


Hey fam, Las Posadas is approaching, and you know what that means – it's time to honor the most iconic road trip in all of historia. Oh, you're not sure what exactly went down? No te preocupes, I'll break it down in a way that makes sense. ¡Vamos a empezar!


Picture this: Roman Emperor Caesar Augustus , the OG micromanager, decides he needs a census to basically stop people from pulling a “catch me if you can” on their taxes later on down the line. Only the men were required to register, but Mary was that girl and stood on business. She knew Jesus was destined for Bethlehem, so she hopped on that donkey and became Joseph’s passenger princesa. 


Don’t get it twisted, though – this viaje was not cute. The weather? A hot mess. The roads? Busted. And the thieves? Ready to spin the block. When they finally reached Bethlehem, Joseph went door to door like, “you got games on your phone?” Kidding. But he did ask for a place to stay…only to be left on read by literally everyone. No rizz? No room. Their last option was a barn, and that’s where baby Jesus was born.


Fast forward to today, Mary and Joseph’s journey is…cómo se dice…our Roman Empire. Their strength, humility, and commitment not only made them couple goals, but they showed us what true love and dedication means. That’s why during Las Posadas, we honor them with nine days of fiesta, faith, and, of course, good vibes. It’s also the perfect time to make connections – IRL or matching with someone who shares your cultura.

So, grab your vela, sing your heart out, and don’t be shy about showing off your best posadas fit. Whether you're celebrating with la familia or DMing your crush to join, the real chispa is in the shared moments.
