Arcane XIII

The Major Arcana XIII has no name, yet it is often called “the Death card” in tarot.
It symbolizes transformation, change and the inevitability of endings. It implies signifying a profound and necessary shift in one’s life or circumstances.
I had chosen to represent the card with a memento mori which reinforces the card’s message.
Around the cat’s skull other elements convey the idea of cycle: the background from clockwise displays all four seasons. The Ouroboros could be a necklace offered to the deceased or a crown, fallen where the sparrow is somehow ironical standing, while the cat had finished feeding back the earth.
