Death represents transformation and the end of one chapter to make way for a new beginning. This card appears when you're going through a major life change - the end of a relationship, job, or way of thinking. Death reminds us that sometimes we need to let go of what's familiar to grow into who we're meant to become. Like a snake shedding its skin or a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, this transformation can feel scary but leads to something more beautiful. The old must die for the new to be born.
