About La Muerte
La Muerte is a card from the Mexican game Loteria. It is a classic Mexican board game of chance, similar to bingo, that is played using a deck of cards featuring images and their matching titles. Players choose a board with a 4x4 grid of photographs and mark off matched images when they are announced by the cantor or caller. In Lotería, the term La Muerte refers to death. This card can represent denying oneself something, being unhappy with your body or yourself, being lovesick, missing someone, or coming to an end.
