House 8: Coffin House
closure
The Coffin House is where things end so that something else can begin. This is not catastrophe — it is the natural conclusion of a cycle. Grief, release, rest, and the clearing of space all belong here. A card in this position shows what is ending, what needs to be let go, and what kind of recovery follows.
This house corresponds to 8. Coffin in the deck.
When a Supportive Card Lands Here
Clean closure. A supportive card here suggests an ending that brings relief, a burden finally set down, or a transition that opens space for something better.
When a Difficult Card Lands Here
Endings that linger. A difficult card here warns of grief that is not being processed, an ending fought rather than accepted, or the temptation to revive something that has already run its course.
