Individual Card Meanings

Death

死神

Death rides on a white horse, carrying a banner of the mystic rose—symbol of life and rebirth. This card rarely means physical death; rather, it represents profound transformation, the ending of one chapter so another may begin. What must die for you to be reborn? Death clears away the old, the stagnant, the no-longer-serving to make room for new growth. While this transformation may be painful, it is necessary and ultimately liberating. The Death card promises that what rises from these ashes will be more authentic, more alive than what came before. Do not fear the ending—embrace the transformation.

The Empress

皇后

The Empress represents the abundant, nurturing aspect of life. Seated in a lush garden with wheat growing at her feet, she embodies fertility, creativity, and the beauty of nature. She is the mother archetype—caring, sensual, and deeply connected to the physical world. This card speaks of a time when creativity flows easily, when projects come to fruition, and when nurturing yourself or others brings great rewards. It suggests pregnancy, artistic expression, or any venture that requires patience and care to grow. The Empress reminds you to connect with nature and honor the cycles of growth in your life.
