DeathTarot card meaning
This card concerns endings and transitions, not a literal prediction of death. Letting a phase close can create room for something that cannot grow inside the old arrangement.
01 / Upright
Endings
Endings, transition, making space for renewal.
Read these themes alongside the question you asked and the card’s position in a spread. The same idea can describe an available strength, something to practice, or a part of a situation that deserves attention.
02 / Reversed
Another way to look
Clinging to what has ended, delayed transition.
A reversed card can invite you to examine a difficulty, an inward experience or an adjustment. It does not automatically cancel the upright meaning. Readers use reversals differently; you can also read without them.
03 / Everyday example
A situation to think with
A hobby no longer fits your life. Keep what it taught you while deciding whether to release the commitment.
04 / Reflection
A question to take with you
What has run its course, and what would making space require?
