The letter of the Tarot "Death", which many people fear when you do a Tarot reading, does not exist.
Tarot The first version of which was born more than a thousand years somewhere in southern France or northern Spain, had 22 major arcana, and are not mentioned the letter "Death." If there were among the 22 major arcana a special letter, a mystery no name, with the number XIII (see image above). All cards in this first version had been drawn by hand with care and love and each letter was full of detail and color symbols according to the rightful meaning.
then started to copy by hand the first version of the Tarot and the passage of time (and over by hundreds of hands of copyists) were starting to lose details, missed the original exact colors and some letters took the liberty to include new details or added words. Thus was born finally "Death." It added the word "Death" in the "Arcane XIII" and thus created the Tarot card controversy and fear that has caused.
Fear of Death
The Sufi poet Kabir said: "Love is the Gap Between Life and Death" ... What a beautiful way to see it. The Life and Death two states are actually the same thing. He who is afraid of death, so afraid of life. If you accept life in all its dimensions, we also accept Death. Death does not exist as we fear, as a final defenitivo. Death is actually a revival (the symbolism of the crucifixion of Christ.) It is a state in which we surrender, a profound transformation, a mutation, a cleaning and new development, "a make room for growing something new," a change ... and these are precisely the meanings given to the letter "Arcane XIII" on tarología.
we go in a little more on what happens to us when we die? From where comes the fear? When one dies, there are two dimensions that do not actually die but are reborn or resurface ... your body and soul. It is a process of resurrection, rebirth, and the truth is that there is no reason to be afraid.
disintegrate your body, temporarily, your package ... body materials are immediately eaten by worms and other creatures, absorbed by land and integrated into new forms of life and so the body almost instantly reborn in thousands of new life forms.
The soul, the essence or your real time out of your way, your body to meet again with the universal energy source. There waiting to be used again for new adventures (rebirth?) ... No one knows exactly what happens to your soul when you die because we have not been there personally (no evidence), but the big gurus all agree that your soul, your essence will continue to exist as such.
far so good, indeed! If you or your body or your soul away, but both are reborn in their own way ... Where does the fear of death, the end then? Then this fear comes from the third dimension of your being ...
Your Ego!
The Ego is an energy that will disappear forever when your body and soul are separated ... not retained or reborn. Going a little further ... Do not panic! The truth is that the Ego has never really existed.
Ego our own invention. It is a false entity we have created within our thoughts, identify with the forms, possessions, achievements, people, events ... all things inpermanentes. The stronger the identification with your ego (and all the ways in which you have created your ego ...), have more fear of Death. "Who do you think being" your invention created and nurtured for so long in your mind, just when your body and soul are separated. Finite Ego! Ciao! It's over!
The path of spiritual growth is just to go slowly turning off the power of the Ego ... while you're alive! so fears losing life, to stop shaking and use your life for something more useful for your purpose?
Demons! ... How one gets rid of the ego? ... say. One gets rid of the ego trying to disarm your identification with the material, trying to disarm your IDs to people, trying to disarm your identification with certain thoughts and ideas as well ... Your essence, your being real has nothing to do with your house, your car, your studies, your education, your friends, your physical body, your political ideas, your profession ... these are all impermanent things with little importance.
But the Ego will eventually be built through these forms and has given much importance to these things ... Through your identification with these things the ego is fed and is still alive. The path of consciousness is to bring light into your life and clear the form and identification with the ego. While the Ego disappears, fades away your fear of death. You realize that all he really dies or disappears is the Ego.
The Path of Consciousness is just that ... to get rid of the Ego, in giving up and dying in life (the Death of the Ego) and then revive and revive and continue a life without ego, conscious existence guided by the light within you. You'll earn well at this growing group of individuals made larger, thus helping to create a new human consciousness.
Viva la Muerte!
