Major Arcana

Death:

It is a card connected with the cycle of life, transformation, and the renewal of the universe and its eternal motion.

It also represents the liberation of the spirit through art, pain, grief, sadness, and the inevitable end.

If the query is about love, it may mean pain, a change of life, mourning, and the end of a relationship.

It stands for renewal, change, and the start of a new stage in our lives.

It does not mean or does not have to mean any deaths, which is a common belief among those who have little understanding of the meaning of the tarot cards.

If the Death card is righ-side-up, it represents renewal in any area of life, failure, things that are sought which may not be achieved, loss of employment, and resignation.

If on the other hand the card is reversed, it symbolizes that the querent presents evidence of depression, a bad disposition, and that the person is quite pessimistic.

It may also mean that a job is expected, which seems to never come, and that a situation will end badly with a lot of pain involved.
 
The words that define this card are: loss, renewal, cleaning, change, and rebirth.

If Death appears with The Wheel of Fortune, it means there will be an inheritance.

If it turns up between The Hanged Man and The Star, beware, for it represents danger in a watery environment.

Death is associated with Gemini.

If it is reversed, it could mean a standstill or stalemate in our projects.
