The Devil — Upright Meaning
The Devil shows two figures bound by loose chains — chains they could easily remove. This card represents temptation, addiction, and the attachments that keep you small. The chains are looser than you think. Name what holds you, and you begin to free yourself.
The Devil — Reversed Meaning
Reversed, The Devil is a card of liberation. You are breaking free from unhealthy attachments, fears, or self-limiting patterns. The chains are falling away — walk away from what no longer serves you.
