Death

Death.  We all know it and we all fear it, so of course see this card is seen in a negative light.  This interpretation is misguided because the death card is not a card of pain, it is a card of powerful transformation in our lives.  The card shows death (the skeleton) wearing unbreakable armor and riding on a white horse waving a black and white flag.  The color of black signifies an absence of light and all that the light represents, while the white represents rebirth and purity.  At death feet there are children, women, and men; nobody is immune.  The sun in the background shows the cyclical nature of life in it's times of light and darkness.  This card is linked to the sign of Scorpio which is known to be connected with sex, death, deep intimate relationships, and emotional and spiritual transformations.  Scorpio is ruled by pluto the planet of transformation and renewal; the taking away of what does not work so that something better can be created.  That is what this card is, it shows that your life is going to change and you may be left with only a skeleton of the life you had before.  Remember however, when you take away something that is unbeneficial you make room for something better to come in.  If you find this card in the upright it is time to accept these changes and weed out what must be weeded out.  You may find that soon your life is unrecognizable, but for the better.  This could be the end to the drama, chaos, delay and negativity you have experienced.  Congratulations, you are now ready for a new chapter.  In the reverse this card shows you are resisting a necessary change and holding on tightly to the past.
