One common question about pagan beliefs is whether or not the practitioner needs to share an ancestral or ethnic link with the system of magick or religion being practiced. In the case of Santa Muerte magick, there's no requirement to be Mexican, Latin American, or Catholic. As the personification of death, the Santa Muerte knows no ethnicity, she has no race, and she waves no flag. Call her what you want and dress her up in any cultural costume you want, beneath it all, she's the same boney lady known around the world. Sure, she might be a rogue Catholic saint venerated by a large community of self identifying Catholics in Mexico, but that's only one part of her story from one part of the world.
