The Devil is a card about ties, vice, difficult situations and materialism. The Devil portrays a couple, very similar to the one that appears in The Lovers, tied by the neck to a pedestal in which The Devil rests. However, if you look closely, you can see that The Devil is not making an effort to keep them tied to him, symbolizing the excuses that sometimes keep us tied to difficult situations or situations that prevent us from growing.

If you have asked about relationships and The Devil comes up, the answer is NO. However, if you are enquiring about a reconciliation, the answer is YES, though it will ultimately not satisfy you and it will prolong a toxic cycle. If you are enquiring about sex, the answer is also YES. In terms of career, finances and personal projects, it is a YES but it comes with a high cost, so perhaps it’s time to turn it down. If you are enquiring about matters of spirituality, the answer is NO.
