Element
Water
Zodiac
Scorpio
A skeleton in black armor rides a white horse. Before him, figures of all ages kneel or lay. A sun rises between two towers.
Upright Meaning
Death represents transformation, endings, and major change. It rarely means physical death—instead, it signifies the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.
Reversed Meaning
Reversed, Death suggests resistance to change, stagnation, or fear of the unknown. You may be holding onto something that needs to end.
Symbolism
The white horse represents purity. The flag shows a five-petaled rose, symbolizing life after death. The rising sun indicates rebirth.
Love Reading
