Is this a good sign?

Is this a good sign when the interviewer said “see you on the other side” after the interview?

That's a weird thing to say. It doesn't really mean anything. They will either hire you on the spot, or be non-committal. The only thing that is a good sign is if they actually hire you. Even then it can fall through before your start date. In the mean time keep looking.

Can you provide more context than just a few words?

Sure! I feel the interview was not bad because when I gave the answers to the questions, the interviewer said it was good and awesome. However, I’m not sure whether I will make it to the 2nd round because there’s so many other strong competitors around me. I was curious and I consulted a tarot reader, she said I won’t make it to the 2nd round because of strong competition. I felt really confident that I’ll make it to the 2nd round when he said “see you on the other side” after our interview ended but after hearing what the tarot reader said.. my confidence level just dropped 😭 I don’t know. The interview also enjoyed our conversation. What do you think?

In my experience interviewers sometimes like to lul you into a false sense of security, if you have shown a lot of confidence then you're far more likely to succeed, a strong competitor means nothing if they have no confidence to show for it. Also I don't believe in tarot stuff and planets aligning in a certain way. Science debunked this stuff many times before.
If the interviewer said what he said, then I do believe that you managed to get to the 2nd round.
If you manage to get to the 2nd round, it's more of a proof how bs is all this tarot stuff.
Believe in yourself and your abilities, because when you're scared, you're far more prone to make mistakes.

Thanks so much Nikolas!! Appreciate your response and being supportive! I’ll stay positive!! Yes I do feel tarot is a lie sometimes! I shouldn’t even be trusting it so much. Sometimes, I feel the reader was just bias or envy of you. I don’t know.

I don't think they are biased or envious, they just tell you what you want to hear or the more likely results. There is no magic or prophecy in this. It's been debunked and shown that such people just listen to what you have to say and your problems, make a conclusion with a small obvious twist and tell you what it is "in the cards".
If you don't succeed in this interview, you can find more places to go to, I'm sure there are more companies looking for someone as passionate and great as you are.
