Head Note: Lavender, Lemongrass, Lily of the Valley
Heart Note: Pine, Rosemary
Base Notes: Juniper
The Death in the Tarot deck is not related to physical death. It is the archetype of change, transformation and metamorphosis, it marks the end of one period or quality and brings a promise of rebirth, resurrection of a higher level or quality. A person most often faces change as a great challenge or event tragedy, a disturbance of the natural flow of life, and not as an opportunity to grow and expand. That’s why the archetype of Death often seems menacing. When one grasps the necessity of constant change, the archetype of Death becomes even pleasant and inspiring. After all, the absence of change never brings any good. Even the darkest night is replaced by morning.
