Death

Card Meaning

Endings, transformation, transition

Description

Death represents significant endings and the transformative power of transition. While it may seem daunting, this card symbolizes the closing of one chapter and the beginning of another, emphasizing the importance of letting go to make way for new experiences. Death encourages you to embrace change and transformation, reminding you that endings can lead to renewal and growth. This card often signifies profound personal shifts and the release of old patterns that no longer serve you. In its reversed position, Death may indicate a fear of change or an inability to let go, prompting you to reflect on what is preventing your growth.
