Transformation

tarot card number: 13

astrological sign: scorpio

positive associations with this tarot card: endings, transformation, clearance, sweeping change

negative associations with this tarot card: stagnation, loss of opportunity, loss of friendship, fear of change

without a doubt it is this card that causes most fear in a reading and yet it rarely, if ever, symbolizes actual death, more a time of absolute endings and absolute beginnings

whilst The Death card can represent rather shocking or unexpected events or changes, they usually clear the way for a brand new start and a greater value for life itself

out with the old and in with the new, a time of transformation is another way of looking at this card

negatively there isn't much difference, other than you may have a greater sense of fear and dread. when this card appears it's time to show what you're made of

another negative aspect of The Death card is stagnation, resisiting change when change is essential which may lead to lost opportunities
