The Death/ SU Tarot by Rafiye Hilal Arslan

You feel like you are dying but at the same time a wish, a longing for a fresh new beginning is inevitably growing. When the things, persons, relationships, situations etc..metaphorically dies (leaving an old form and transforms to a new, with or without you) you understand one thing very clearly time can not be stopped and change is the only constant.

The Death is transformation, fundamental change, leaving the old and all that is unnecessary behind, to make room for new and necessary things.

As you see it in this depiction of the Death in SU Tarot in the distance the point of a spear with flag, probably there was a time long ago.. a battle that took place here. And on this battle field there was a purpose for both oppositions, we don’t know who won the battle but we know that here lies old bodies, dreams and hopes. There was a time that people here took their stand for what they loved and believed. As you see, the battle field is under waters by now, there is nothing that water cannot cleans and clear. And sometimes it can wash away also the things that we consider as good..so don’t hold onto what is old and lost. Even it seems still good for us. Perhaps there is an another way to create that dream or wish, with different tools and people. Perhaps there is an another person who can create that magic in a fair relationship you always dreamed of.

The Death in Su Tarot is keeping up the hope even you are scared and thinking not to be ready for the changes. You have your time cause the changes they already ongoing it’s in the happening, in your daily life, it’s already in the air. Possibilities and impossibilities will occur in your life that will make you ripe to enhance your very deepest grounds, where you will grow new flowers and willingly accepting to leave the past to rest. And don’t hold your tears for whatever reason, let them wash away the pain if thát is what you are scared off to feel.
