Deathas the Future
"It's not over. It's composting."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
What this card is saying about what's ahead
What's unfolding is a transformation, not a loss you can avoid. Death in the future points to an ending that clears ground for something more honest to take root. Grieve what needs grieving and don't confuse the ending with the whole story.
Don't fear the death card, a skull knight rides a white horse across a battlefield. The card seems grim, but the death card means a new beginning as much as it means something coming to end. Think persephone and hades more than the grim reaper. Or the death of winter leading to spring.
You are facing an ending or a big transition. Will it be a phoenix rising from the ashes or the start of something new. Some trees only grow in the wake of a forest fire. Accept this part of the process of life and let the loss wash over you. This part of the cycle has ended, but a new one always begins
You are energetically blocked by something from your past. Holding onto it is causing you more pain than you know. Everyone fears loss, but, alas, we cannot go through life without it. Feel the grief flow through you, but don't let it trap you in a place you don't belong
Its place in the deck.
Where it shows up.
Where is this showing up for you?
