(1), Brand Overview
Death (Si) (Death) is the 13th card in Major Arcana (Da A Ka Na), and also the most frightening card. On the card, a skeleton knight wearing a black (Hei) helmet, Jia (1st Heavenly Stem), rides a white (Bai) Horse (Ma), and holds a black (Hei) The flag features White's (Bai Se) Rose (Mei Gui) (representing freshmen). Wherever he went, people fell, some cried, and some accepted it calmly. However, the Death (Si) card does not actually represent the Death of Death (Si), but rather the end, transformation, and rebirth. The old will not go away, and the new will not come. Only by ending the old can the new begin. The essence of the Death (Si) card is: ending is for rebirth.
(2), Upright (Zheng Wei)Meaning/Implication (Han Yi)
Death Upright (Zheng Wei) It represents the end, transformation, rebirth, letting go, radical change, and a new beginning. Drawing Death Upright (Zheng Wei) means that a phase is about to end and a new phase is about to begin. This end could be a relationship, a job, a lifestyle, or even an old self. Although Death (Si) may seem terrifying, it is actually a good thing because it clears away the old, useless east (Dong) west (Xi) and makes room for the new. It reminds us: don't be afraid of the end, the end is another beginning; Only by letting go of the past can we embrace Wei Goat (Wei); Change can be painful, but growth happens in the bitter (Ku)center (Zhong) of pain.
(3), Reversed (Ni Wei)Implication (Han Yi)
Death Reversed (Ni Wei) represents resistance to change, fear of the end, stagnation, the old not going away, the new not coming, and the rekindling of Death (Si). Drawing Death Reversed (Ni Wei) may mean that you are resisting change, unwilling to accept what is over, and clinging to the past. It could also indicate that things are taking a turn for the better; they thought it was over, but then Death (Si) reignited. Reversed's "Death" (Si Shen) reminds us that what needs to end will end sooner or later, and instead of resisting, we should accept it calmly. Clinging to the past will only make you feel bitter and miss new opportunities. Change is bitterly painful, but not changing will be even more bitterly painful. Sometimes, during the Pentad/five-day period (Hou), the end is the best gift because it gives you the opportunity to start over.
(4), Career and Academics
In terms of career, Death Upright (Zheng Wei) represents major changes at work, which may include changing jobs, careers, company restructuring, or even unemployment. But this is not necessarily a bad thing. Only when the old job is over will there be a chance to find a better one. In the case of a startup, Death (Si) represents the end of a project or the need for transformation. In terms of academics, Death (Si) represents the end of a learning phase, while Closeness/Neighboring (Bi) represents graduation, the end of exams, or the need to change learning methods. If you are Reversed (Ni Wei), you may not have undergone any Transformation (Hua) at work and cannot change, or your project may be half-dead (Si) and not survive, and you may be stuck at a certain stage in your studies and unable to make progress.
(5), Emotions and Interpersonal Relationships
In terms of relationships, Death Upright (Zheng Wei) represents the end of a relationship or a significant shift in the relationship. For single people, Death (Si) indicates that you will say goodbye to your past relationship patterns and be ready to embrace a new romance. For those in a relationship, Death (Si) may represent a breakup, or it may represent the relationship entering a completely new phase. The old strong/supporting (Xiang) pattern has ended, and a new pattern has begun. The love of Death (Si) is the love of rebirth from Nirvana, the love that becomes even more steadfast after experiencing the rain of Wind (Feng). If it's Reversed (Ni Wei), the relationship might break up and get back together, and the break might not be clean, or it might be that one party wants to break up but the other doesn't, which is very painful (bitter (Ku)).
(6), Tarot cards (Ta Luo Pai) Revelation
The Death (Si) card tells us that life is a process that keeps ending and keeps starting. Nothing is eternal; everything is constantly changing. We are often afraid of loss, afraid of the end, but it is precisely because there is an end that the new comes. The wisdom of Death (Si) is that all losses will return in another way; All endings are for a better beginning; What you lose is never truly yours; What belongs to you will never be lost. May you have the courage to bid farewell to the past with Qi/Vital energy (Qi), and the faith to welcome the Wei Goat (Wei) with Heart (Xin). Because every time Death (Si) arrives, it is an opportunity for rebirth. Only when the old you dies can the new you come back to life.
