Alright, let’s talk about this Devil card, the one with the scary fella on it. Folks ask me all the time, “Is it a yes or a no?” Well, lemme tell ya, it ain’t that simple.
Mostly, if you’re askin’ a yes or no question and you pull that Devil card, it’s a big ol’ NO. Like, if you’re askin’ “Should I marry that fella who drinks too much and borrows money all the time?”, the Devil’s sayin’ “Heck no!” You get what I’m sayin’? It’s about seein’ things for what they are, not what you want ’em to be.
- It means watch out! This card is a warnin’, like a rooster crowin’ before a storm. It’s sayin’ somethin’ ain’t right, somethin’s holdin’ ya back.
- Too much of a good thing ain’t good. Like that extra slice of pie? Tastes good goin’ down, but you’ll feel it later. The Devil card is like that, too much desire, too much of anything, it’ll bite ya in the butt.
- Stuck in a rut. Ever feel like you’re walkin’ in circles? That’s the Devil card too. It means you’re caught up in somethin’ unhealthy, somethin’ that’s keepin’ you from movin’ forward. Could be a bad habit, could be a bad relationship, could be just plain bad thinkin’.
Now, some folks get all scared when they see this card. They think it means somethin’ evil, like the devil himself is gonna come snatch ’em up. But it ain’t like that. It’s more about your own choices, your own weaknesses. It’s sayin’, “Hey, you’re headed down a wrong path, best turn around before it’s too late.”
Think of it like this: you see a snake in the grass, you gonna step on it? No, you’re gonna be careful, right? The Devil card is that snake. It’s tellin’ you to watch your step, to be careful about what you’re doin’ and who you’re trustin’.
Some folks say it means fear, bein’ trapped. Like you’re stuck in a spiderweb, can’t get out. And yeah, it can mean that too. But it also means you gotta fight back, gotta break free. It ain’t easy, but you gotta do it.
Now, let’s say you ask, “Should I take that new job even though it means moving far away from my family?” And you pull the Devil card. That ain’t just a simple no. It’s telling you to think real hard about what you’re giving up. Are you letting fear hold you back? Or is your desire for somethin’ new blinding you to the important things in life?
And it ain’t always about big things either. Sometimes it’s about little things. Like, “Should I eat that whole bag of chips?” Devil card shows up? Means put the bag down! See? It’s about common sense, really.
Let’s be clear, the Devil card is a tricky one. It ain’t always black and white. But if you’re lookin’ for a straight answer to a yes or no question, more often than not, it’s a no. It’s a no with a big ol’ exclamation point, and a waggin’ finger tellin’ you to think twice, maybe even three times, before you do somethin’ you might regret. It’s about lookin’ at the shadows, the dark corners, the parts of yourself and your situation you don’t wanna see. But you gotta see ‘em, or they’ll control you. That’s what the Devil’s all about.
So next time you see that Devil card starin’ back at ya, don’t freak out. Just listen to what it’s tryin’ to tell ya. It ain’t always what you wanna hear, but it’s usually what you need to hear.
