Card Description Death in Tarot

In this arcane, we have the image of a skeleton with a scythe. He is the Death messenger.

The skeleton represents the part of the body that survives the longest after life has ended.

The Messenger passes the scythe in a field of people symbolizing that you must cut out of your life both people and ideas that do you no good.

The symbols on this card mean that death is not just the end of life, but also the beginning. It is the end of one life and the birth of another. It is change, transformation.

What does Death in Tarot mean?

Death in Tarot is a misunderstood card. When it appears in a reading, people associate it with physical death, of the body, and they already think that they will die or that someone important in their life will make the dreaded crossing.

But it’s nothing like that. The Death card is one of the most positive Tarot cards. It indicates the end of one phase to the beginning of another. The death of everything that no longer serves you for the birth of better and greater things in your life.

This letter asks you to leave the past behind in order to embrace the new opportunities.

This arcane will only be bad if you offer resistance to the necessary ends. In this case, you will feel pain, both physical and emotional.

However, if you embrace the possibility of a major transformation in your life, you will allow more constructive patterns to emerge.

You will go through a time of change and transition. Your life will be purified and renewed after eliminating limiting factors.

Death Inverted Card Meaning

If in the upright position, Death points to a period in which the past is left behind so that there is room for transformation and renewal, in the inverted position, this arcane means that you are resisting this change.

Death Card in Mythological Tarot

The Death card is represented here by hades, the god and lord of the underworld. The River Stinge, which we see in the image and which means “hated”, was seen as a terrible and oppressive river.

It represents a stage through which we must pass in order to reach the riches of the underworld: it is the stage of sadness and mourning, as necessary as joy and celebration.

The sun that rises on the horizon announces a new future, but the souls kneeling before Hades, the card of Death, still do not perceive it.

The child who offers the flower is an image of the child’s trust in change that can help us deal with the grieving process. Only the child is not afraid to express sadness.

The Death card is the finitude and feeling we experience in all endings. When we change, a new circumstance can arise.

However, the previous path remains dead and will never return to its original form.

In a divinatory sense, the Death card means something that must come to an end. Since the pain and suffering of this experience depends exclusively on this person’s ability to accept and recognize the need for a new life.
