Week 8: Symbols

Spend some time on the internet researching your particular card (either the one you picked originally or the one you picked last week). What symbols are normally associated with this archetype? What do the symbols represent? If you had to pick a card to represent you right now, would you use this one or another one? Why? What is different about the other one if you have a preference for a card other than the one you originally picked? Does that preference reveal anything you didn’t already know about yourself?

One normal symbol that is usually associated with the death card is the skeleton. This skeleton obviously represents mortality, BUT it can also represent change and transition.sun in the background. This sun in the background of this tarot card normally represents life and growth. It also ties in to the skeleton symbol and is a reminder that with an end, there is usually a new beginning. The white horse that the skeleton knight is riding represents the power of instinct and knowing when is the right time to move on.
If I had to chose a card that represented me right now I would definitely pick this one. This is because I myself definitely feel like I am in a transitional state. I had to move on from a situation in my life and this ended up being a good thing for me. I also feel like leaving the situation I did brought me to a brand new opportunity that I never would've found if I hadn't left. I think I knew this about myself and this is why I could relate to this card so much.
