The Devil
Card XV of the Major Arcana
- Attachment
- Temptation
- Habit
As a yes or no answer:No
Upright
Something has a hold on you: a habit, a person, a fear. Naming it loosens it.
The Devil sits above two figures chained loosely at the neck. Something has a hold on you: a habit, a desire, a fear or an unhealthy tie. Notice that the chains are loose. Naming what binds you is the first step to freeing yourself. This card can also point to strong material or physical temptations.
Reversed
You are breaking free from what bound you. Keep going.
Reversed, The Devil shows you breaking free. You are seeing a harmful pattern clearly and starting to release it. Keep going. Old temptations may test you once more, but your grip on your own life is growing stronger.
In love
- Upright
- Intense attraction, but check whether the bond is healthy or controlling.
- Reversed
- Breaking free from an unhealthy attachment. Your freedom matters more than the pull.
In career and money
- Upright
- Golden handcuffs, debt or a job you stay in only for money. Name the trap.
- Reversed
- Breaking free from a draining job or debt. Keep going.
