Alright, so I got this wild idea to try out the “Death by Tarot Reading” thing from goodr. Honestly, I’d heard a bunch of mixed stuff about it, mostly how it’s this big scary card that freaks people out. But hey, I’m all about trying new things, so I thought, why not give it a shot?
First thing I did was grab my trusty tarot deck. I’ve had this deck for a while now, and it’s always been pretty spot-on with my readings. I cleared off my table, lit a candle to set the mood, you know, the whole nine yards. Then, I shuffled the cards, focusing on what I wanted to learn from this “Death” experience. I was kinda nervous, not gonna lie, but also super curious.

I laid out the cards in a simple spread – just three cards to represent past, present, and future. And guess what? The Death card popped up right in the middle, the present position. My heart did a little flip, but I took a deep breath and reminded myself that it’s not usually about actual, physical death. It’s more about change and transformation, right?
Looking at the card, it actually wasn’t as terrifying as I’d imagined. Sure, there’s a skeleton, but it’s also kinda majestic, riding a horse and carrying a banner. I started digging into what it all meant. I grabbed my favorite tarot guidebook and started reading up on the Death card. It talked about endings leading to new beginnings, letting go of old stuff to make way for the new. It made sense.
- Endings and New Beginnings: I’ve been feeling kinda stuck lately, like I’m at a crossroads. This card felt like a nudge, saying it’s okay to let go of the things that aren’t serving me anymore.
- Completing a Chapter: Yeah, this resonated too. I’ve been clinging to some old habits and patterns that I know aren’t good for me. Time to turn the page, I guess.
I spent some time just reflecting on all this. I thought about the areas in my life where I needed change, where I was holding onto things that were holding me back. It was a bit emotional, I won’t lie. But it also felt… liberating. Like I was finally acknowledging what I needed to do to move forward. I just do not wanna be that guy who depends on something that does not work for me.
Realizing I was not dying was a big relief.
I realized, this whole “Death by Tarot Reading” thing wasn’t about predicting my doom. It was about facing the changes I needed to make in my life. It was about letting go of the old to make room for the new. And honestly, it was a pretty powerful experience. I felt like I’d gained some clarity and a new sense of direction.
So yeah, that’s my story about my little adventure with the Death card. It wasn’t scary, it was enlightening. And it definitely gave me a lot to think about. I’m actually excited to see what new beginnings are in store for me. Tarot reading is quite fun. Go get yourself a deck if you do not have one already. Maybe you will be the next tarot reader.
