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 Hierophant

教宗

The Hierophant represents spiritual authority, traditional values, and the transmission of sacred knowledge. Seated between two pillars like the High Priestess, but in a religious setting, he bridges the divine and the earthly. This card speaks of learning from established traditions, seeking guidance from mentors or institutions, and following a conventional path. It may indicate formal education, religious ceremony, or any situation where conforming to established norms serves your highest good. The Hierophant reminds us that there is wisdom in tradition and value in shared beliefs and practices.
