Mixtape No.12 Cosmic Explosions Just Woken Me Up

The death card in tarot is commonly associated with rupture, ending and as the name suggests, with death. However its meaning goes a lot beyond that, as we can see in the first minutes of Varda's Cleo the esqueletic figure carries the seed of change, the uninterrupted violence of the revolution, with its hand it keeps revolving the ground, looking for a new path, while burying behind it a painful past. Calling it 'death' seems to be an attitude posterior to the creation of the game itself. And in the same idea Bergman made all peasants dance with Death, followed by the music of a dionisiac saxophone, enchanting all the way to a new life.
So let it be action and potency altogether, force and rage working towards a simple result: rebirth.
