Tarot Contemplation – The Devil

Pay attention to what you feel resentful towards or burdened by today. Whatever you are feeling weighed down by, remember, it is something you chose, and also something you can unchoose. Assess whether you want to remain committed to that which you have tied yourself to. It may not seem like it, but you do have a choice. The Devil is a card of indulgence and material pleasure. When the Devil appears, there is something you do that feels good, but its not good for your health or well-being. You know you shouldn’t have another glass of wine, charge those shoes to your credit card, or fall into bed with that troublesome lover, but you do it anyway. You may be ignoring your higher self and be disconnected from spirit. In some way, you are deceiving yourself. Sometimes, the Devil shows up when a little fun is exactly what you need. Sometimes, we need to let go, break our own rules and forget about the consequences until tomorrow.
