What does the Death tarot card mean?

Transition. Ending. Transformation. And we could simply stop right here. Once again - Transition. Ending. Transformation. This is the answer. The main meaning of the card is that the natural end of the current situation is near. And there is nothing wrong with that. Death is the healing beginning of life.

What does the Death reversed mean?

Reversed Death can mean that the end of a matter is near, but hasn't arrived yet, or that a person is not allowing it to arrive. Reversed Death resists the changes that this Arcana brings when it is in an upright position. It is like a person with a toothache postponing a visit to the dentist.

What does the Death mean in love?

Destruction, disintegration, the end – all these meanings of the thirteenth Arcana usually manifest quite vividly if the question is about love. Often the card indicates that the time has come to part, to find a replacement for relationships that have exhausted themselves.

What does the Death mean for career?

By and large, death is good when the question concerns the end of some not particularly pleasant and sluggish situations, or a way out of a crisis. If the querent was interested in the prospects of some business venture, then the project risks ending before it has even begun. There are stillborn ideas and unviable plans – Death "marks" them quite clearly, as far as can be judged from practical observations.
