THE DEVIL

THE DEVIL

You think you own

what's before your eyes.

You think you're too pure

for greed and lies.

So now laugh and drink

you're sure to be merry,

the weight of your sins

you're later to carry.

Falling further you ll think

your splendor sublime

while I wait in the shadows

just biding my time.

The Devil card is about sin, the path of

least resistance negative life cycles, and

addiction or self-bondage.The figures

below the dragon are in chains, but they

are loose around their bodies, suggesting

they are willingly imprisoned.This is

because The Devil is about being

intensely bound to something or to

someone for better or worse.

The Devil's shadow is quite conversely

about liberation-especially sexual

liberation. It can also be a sign that you

need to give in and live a little.
