Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with tarot cards lately, just for kicks, you know? I’m not a pro or anything, but I thought, why not give it a try? Today, I decided to do a little reading for myself, and guess what? I pulled the “Death” card. Yeah, sounds pretty ominous, right?
So, I got this deck of tarot cards a while back, never really used ’em much. But today, I felt like it. I shuffled the deck, thinking about what’s been going on in my life. Just a regular shuffle, nothing fancy. Then I spread the cards out on my coffee table, which, by the way, is a total mess, but whatever.

I decided to keep it simple and just pull one card. I closed my eyes for a second, took a deep breath, and picked a card from the middle of the spread. Flipped it over, and bam! There it was – the “Death” card. My first thought was, “Oh crap, what did I get myself into?”
Now, I’ve read a bit about tarot online and stuff, and I know the “Death” card isn’t always about, like, actual death. It can mean change, endings, new beginnings, that kind of thing. Still, it’s a pretty intense card to pull, especially when you’re just starting out.
Here’s what I did next:
- Freaked out a little: I mean, who wouldn’t? It’s the “Death” card!
- Googled it: Yeah, I went straight to the internet. I typed in something like “death card tarot meaning” and started reading through a bunch of articles and forum posts.
- Tried to make sense of it: I looked at the image on the card, read the little booklet that came with the deck, and just tried to figure out what it could mean for me.
I spent a good hour just thinking about it. What’s ending in my life? What needs to change? Is this a good thing or a bad thing? My head was spinning. I even considered just putting the cards away and forgetting about the whole thing.
But then I thought, “Nah, I’m already in this, might as well see it through.” So I decided to embrace the chaos, so to speak. I’m still not entirely sure what it all means, but I have a few ideas.
My takeaways:
I think maybe it’s about my job. I’ve been feeling pretty stuck lately, and maybe this is a sign that it’s time to move on. Or maybe it’s about my relationship. Things have been a bit rocky, and maybe this is a sign that we need to make some changes, or maybe even end things.

Honestly, it could be anything. But pulling that card definitely got me thinking. It’s like a wake-up call, you know? Like the universe is saying, “Hey, pay attention! Something’s gotta give.” I was reading some forum posts, some folks said the “Death” card signifies needing to be in the moment of change and just accept it, which was an interesting perspective. I haven’t decided if I should do tarot again, maybe it’s too much for me.
So, yeah, that’s my “Death by Tarot Reading” story. It was a wild ride, and I’m still processing it all. I guess the only way to find out what it truly means is to just live my life and see what happens. Wish me luck!
