[Reference: Learning the Tarot : A Tarot Book for Beginners, Joan Bunning]
Death is not a permanent end, but a transition into a new sate.
... often represents and important ending that will initiate great change.
..., there may be sadness and reluctance, but also relief and a sense of completion.
Death also suggests getting down to basics.
... reminds you to cut out the unnecessary.
... sometimes there are events that are inescapable as well.
..., the best approach is to ride you fate and see where it takes you
