SOURCE : Occult Symbolism of the Ace of Spades
When we emerge onto the earth plane, we do so through the gateway of the [Ace of Spades].
At any moment in time, circumstances present at that moment are unique. When we are still young, we can see the gateway clearly and there is an undeniable connection to the Spirit realm. Over time, however, the moment of birth slowly disappears into a myriad of memories generated by our momentary choices.
At the end of life, the natural hope would be that we find the gateway that we entered through at birth in order to return… However, having lost the memory of our moment of birth, fear that the gateway will thus not be found leaves us with a feeling of dread. That feeling permeates our waking life… [and] gets associated with the [Ace] (and for spades in general). The good news is, when leaving this lifetime… the Spirit realm will look the same no matter what moment is chosen for the time of death. We do not need to fear death since all doors lead to the same place.
