The Death Card of Tarot: Don’t Stay Stuck in the Past
The Death card of tarot could well be telling you that it is time to let something go. Don’t cling too tightly to this thing in your life. Whatever it is, it is over, and it is time to accept that. Enjoy the memories, but realize that memories are all they are now.
It is time to reinvent yourself and move in a new direction to become what you are meant to become now that this new chapter that has begun. When you read a book, do you stay stuck on one chapter and continually reread it without moving on to see how the rest of the book turns out? It is doubtful. So why live life this way?
Time moves on like the pages of a book and one situation gives way to the next, to the next, to the next. Notice that each page builds on the previous pages. They would never amount to anything if each page had the exact same words on it. Remember fondly, but don’t stay stuck in the life you once lived. Live the life you are living now. Anticipate where it is going and enjoy the journey that life is. This could never happen without the continuous cycle of death and rebirth, and it is nothing to fear. –Jim Larsen
