Death
Keywords for Death: endings · transformation · clearing space.
Upright meaning
Upright, Death points to endings, transformation and clearing space.
Death is one of the 22 Major Arcana, so when Death appears it usually marks a bigger chapter rather than a passing mood.
Reversed meaning
Reversed, Death can signal clinging to the past, fear of change or slow transition; it rarely means the opposite, more that the energy of Death is blocked or overdone.
Love
In a love reading, Death suggests endings between you, and reversed Death asks you to look honestly at clinging to the past.
Career & Money
For work and money, Death favours clearing space; if Death shows up reversed, check where slow transition is costing you.
