Death Tarot Card
Major Arcana Card 13

Death

transformation endings rebirth transition release

Upright Meaning

Death signifies profound transformation, the ending of one chapter, and the beginning of another. This card rarely indicates physical death; instead, it speaks to the necessary release of old patterns, relationships, or identities that no longer serve you. Embrace this transition, for from the ashes of the old, something beautiful will be reborn.

Reversed Meaning

Reversed, Death suggests resistance to change, fear of endings, or an inability to let go of the past. You may be clinging to situations, relationships, or beliefs that have already run their course. Until you accept the need for transformation and release what no longer serves you, you will remain stuck in a state of stagnation.
