Death — Spiritual Message of the Day

Death is said to be the great equalizer since it claims us all. But more importantly, it is a great instructor. When faced with death, many people finally realize what is important in life. They may see that old grudges aren’t worth holding on to or that spending time with loved ones is more important than working nights and weekends in order to have a beautiful home they only ever sleep in.

A suggestion for when this card shows up is to consider it to be an imaginary version of a death sentence. Ask yourself what changes you would make in your life if you found out that you had only a short time to live. What’s stopping you from making those changes now? Take this as a wonderful opportunity to learn the lessons that impending death teaches before the actual specter of death looms close at hand.
