The Coffin represents endings, loss, closure, illness, and periods of stillness. It signals that something has stopped, reached its conclusion, or must be released. The card can also indicate grief, absence, stagnation, or a necessary period of rest before movement and renewal can eventually begin.
The Coffin brings something to a stop or marks a period of absence, rest, or closure. Look to surrounding cards to discover what is ending, lost, or no longer progressing. Although often difficult, its ending can sometimes be necessary or welcome, especially when it closes an unhealthy situation.
