Sepulchral

The Word of the Day for December 5 is "sepulchral."

sepulchral: (adjective)
  1. Gruesomely indicative of death or the dead.
  2. Gloomy and solemn, like a tomb or grave
Synonyms: charnel, ghastly

Usage: The sepulchral darkness of the catacombs sent a chill down my spine.

Relevance to my Life: Historically speaking, filled as it has been with severe illness, heart-crushing breakups and the occasional bout of deep depression tinged with suicidal ideation, the color and mood of November is, for me, sepulchral.
