cleopatra wanted to die because, she had tried seducing the octavian empire,but unfortunately failed in that task. now,octavians will take over if she didnt do anything to prevent it. cleopatra had almost nothing in her mind,no ideas, only an empty space..

so,she chose to commit suicide by letting a snake bite her.

Did Cleopatra mean to die?

Yes, Cleopatra did mean to die. She committed suicide, by taking a poisonous snake and letting it bite her on the arm. Cleopatra did this to avoid being paraded through the streets by Augustus and Octavian. They were planning to take Cleopatra back to Rome and show her off as a prize. Then they were probably going to kill her in public. Cleopatra was a very dedicated queen, so she did not want to be paraded through the streets. She didn't want to be humiliated, so she just killed herself. Exactly how we don't know. But most people think the snake bit her.
