Death — Tarot Card Meaning
TransformationNew chapterInner strengthSpiritual growthWisdom
Upright Meaning
Endings and transformation. Death clears the old to make way for the new — a profound transition, the close of one chapter and the rebirth of another.
Reversed Meaning
Reversed, you resist necessary change: clinging to what's over, fear of transition or a transformation stalled. Letting go is the only way through.
