Tarot Reading and Death

If you believe in superstitions, the number thirteen would surely make you uncomfortable. Whether you’re sitting as the thirteenth in line at a doctor’s clinic, or walking along the corridors in the thirteenth floor of a building, you’ll have the uneasy feeling of bad luck and disaster coming to you.

In the tarot card deck, the death card is numbered as the thirteenth card. People most often fear the card for two very simple reasons. These are because the card symbolizes death and the card is number thirteen on the deck. What’s more is that the infamous Grim Reaper is shown in the death card. He is a symbol of fear and death. Naturally, when you go for tarot card reading and you’ll see a death card as one of the random cards chosen, you’ll be quick to react as if you are going to die sometime soon. After all, the Grim Reaper supposedly takes lives away, and if you pick his card, should you be rid of your life?

The death card is a symbol of endings, but having this one in your tarot card reading does not necessarily entail that you’ll experience death immediately or the like. The death card may symbolize the death or erasure of your past. In all its ironical sense, the death card may even symbolize new life. How? The death card signifies the end of all the mistakes in your past, making you renewed and ready to start fresh in life. So the next time you receive a death card in your tarot card reading, think twice before reacting negatively. Be positive and think of the death card as a way to having a new and better life for you.

When the death card appears in your tarot card reading, it often signifies a major renewal or change in your life. Although the change may appear unexpected and disruptive, the change can also be of positive nature. The death card can guide you in change by helping you take action to clear all obstacles hindering your growth. Therefore, avoid directly assuming that the death card is a negative card. The death card may most likely signify progress and improvement in your life. As the death card may symbolize change, so to must you be ready to change your life. Life itself is in constant change and you too must adapt to this change by continuously growing as a better person, working toward your goals, fulfilling your dreams, and developing a quality and holistic well-being.

Imagine yourself as a fertile land. You are most optimized for having bountiful crops and harvests. These symbolize your growth as a person. Yet there are weeds which constantly thrive on the land, ruining the crops in the process. Your mistakes symbolize the weeds. In order to be able to completely utilize all of the land, you must remove the weeds in order to plant more crops. This is the same with your life. You must make up for your mistakes, overcome your fears, and undergo change in order to rid yourself of hazards and obstacles in your life. Only then will you be successful in life.
