death is a card that ignites a lot of fear during tarot readings, but it doesn't specifically mean a physical death (although that is always a possibility). more frequently, it refers to an ending of something significant, such as a job or a relationship or a stage in life. while still a large moment, it heralds a period of change that is an evitable part of the human experience. embracing it will make going through the experience a little easier and help you to move on to the next stage of life sooner. when pulled upright, it means profound change, failure, a significant ending, or potentially an illness (although this is not how all readers interpret the card). when pulled reversed, it suggests depression, an resistance to change, delayed or protracted endings, or lack of awareness. change will come regardless, the question is how you choose to greet it.
