Death

While the Death card may appear ominous, drawing it, particularly in an upright position, is considered positive. A significant transition is about to take place, opening new doors that necessitate closing others. Embracing change and letting go of the past—whether it's a relationship that's no longer working, an unfulfilling job, or unhealthy patterns and habits—is essential to achieving this. The old must be shed for the new to emerge. Doing so can be frightening, but remember that endings lead to beginnings – sometimes more promising and fulfilling than before.

Receiving Death in reverse suggests that you may be having difficulty accepting change and letting go. You might be fearing the uncertainty that comes with transitions, or struggling to leave behind a past phase that felt comforting and familiar. As a result, you may feel trapped in negative patterns, unhealthy attachments, or stagnation. This card reminds you that these issues prevent you from moving forward from a limiting past, and it’s time to embrace change and all the bright possibilities that it brings.
