Honestly, we’re all going to die eventually, so technically the answer to that kind of question is always yes — the card isn’t wrong.
That said, life isn’t black and white, so if you want readings to feel accurate, it helps to allow for some grey area. For yes/no questions, I like doing two-card pulls:
Two upright cards = likely yes (still “likely” because nothing is guaranteed).
Two reversed cards = likely no.
One upright, one reversed = maybe.
The card meanings then give more context. For example, a likely yes might show a peaceful, even positive outcome — so in your case with the Sun, the “yes” could come with a sense of peace or acceptance. A maybe usually highlights unresolved factors that could still shift the outcome.
Also, a heads-up: questions about death rarely bring comfort. Tarot can still help, but framing it differently — like “How can I bring comfort to this person or myself?” — might be a lot gentler and more useful.
