This is the Third card from my Tarot series

This Tarot set will be a cross between the idea of the Old Tarot Cards with the iconography of the Philippine telenovela/soap operas (Telenovelas shown in the Philippines) in the Japanese anime style. (A project me and a friend Nyel decided to do. A card is to be released every week.)

I'm delayed already (2 cards short)

The Death

This is the first non-character card. It is a symbolic figure of death. On Telenovelas/soap operas (or even in real life) death is something that is feared. It is usually accompanied with tears and grief (mauve pearls).Usually death has two faces - the dark face where it would be the end of all the beautiful things and of life , the the lighter face where it tends to be an escape from life's curse... death is viewed differently by every individual. The Serpent spirit signifies death caused by natural means (Its the sea-nature serpent from the anime iconography usually seen in holy lakes). Roses in unusual pallet of purple. I used purple to denote the feeling of half mourning and a near death state. Death's left arm is seen as fleshless holding a torn pearl necklace (Signifying promises that are taken away by the said incident) Death is portrayed here in a very at ease facial gesture - it is a fact that most of us ignore but all of us will face sooner or later.

Here's the Basic Tarot Meaning

Yes, the Death card can signal a death in the right circumstances (a question about a very sick or old relative, for example), but unlike its dramatic presentation in the movies, the Death card is far more likely to signal transformation, passage, change. Scorpio, the sign of this card, has three forms: scorpion, serpent, eagle. The Death card indicates this transition from lower to higher to highest. This is a card of humility, and it may indicate the Querent as being brought low, but only so that they can then go higher than they ever have before. Wang notes that Death "humbles" all, but it also "exults." Always keep in mind that on this card of darkness there is featured a sunrise as well .
