Meaning: Death shows a skeletal figure on horseback moving steadily forward, rarely meaning literal death, instead representing the end of one phase and the transformation that follows.

Upright: Endings, transformation, transition. Signals a significant ending or transformation, the close of one chapter that clears space for something new to begin.

Reversed: Resistance to change, stagnation, fear of endings. Can point to resisting an ending that needs to happen, or feeling stuck in a situation that has already run its course.
