Hidden health; physical and emotional.

Meaning: This card does not presage a physical death but, like the harvest, marks the end of a cycle in which the seeds of a new one are sown. The card indicates a time of adjustment and mourning, a suspension between the old stage and the new. On a higher level, the Death card can indicate a re-evaluation of your life and a change in your consciousness.

Visible spiritual path.

Meaning: This card indicates that a willing sacrifice of some kind will be called for. You will be forced to recognize the necessity of change, which involves letting one thing go to gain another, whether this concerns relationships, possessions, or personal growth. On a deeper level, the Sacrifice card is asking you to look at your attitudes toward control. Sometimes it is necessary to relax and let go, to let events take their course.
