“Death” – Tarot scented candle for transformation, letting go and a powerful new beginning

Change begins with courage.

The Tarot Candle: Death is one of the most misunderstood cards of the Major Arcana. It doesn't represent the end of life—but rather the end of a cycle. It represents letting go of what no longer belongs to you. It represents the radical renewal that only becomes possible when you are ready to leave the old behind.

This card invites you to ask yourself:
What is allowed?
What wants to emerge?

Our handmade Death Tarot Candle accompanies you on this inner path of change. With calming lavender and clarifying rosemary , it supports you in finding inner peace and embracing change. Its energy is gentle yet determined—just like the process it symbolizes.

The symbolism of the Tarot candle Death

Traditionally, "Death" depicts a skeleton rider on a white horse, surrounded by falling leaves, a sunrise, and bowing figures. These images represent the naturalness of change—and the fact that every end is also a new beginning. In Tarot tradition, the card symbolizes transformation, transition, and new beginnings.

Those who work with tarot rituals quickly realize that these symbols are not gloomy, but full of hope. They remind us that growth is only possible when we leave the old behind. This is precisely the message the "Death" candle brings into your home.
