I was very impressed with your pointing out that the two people, even though they're supposedly "prisoners of the Devil", do not seem to be suffering in any way. They have relaxed body language, normal facial expressions etc. And as you also pointed out, the chains around their necks are so loose they could remove them whenever they wanted to, but they don't. Basically, their problem is that they don't even know they have a problem! And that is something we see a lot of in real life. The more you explain the Major Arcana in these videos, the more I think that Arthur Waite and Pamela Colman Smith were geniuses!
I don’t wha
Co-dependency. Fear of intimacy. Caretaker role. Bondage. Comforting illusions. One who knows when to stop is forever safe.
Those who sacrifice freedom for security lose both.
Your comment that the Devil was "the opposite of enlightenment" was a new one for me. Perfect.
According to Pollack, his upraised hand is the gesture used by the high priest of Jerusalem as a priestly blessing at the Jewish New Year.
A quote by Wm. Blake that you might appreciate: "Satan is the symbol of creativity, activity and energy struggling to be free". I feel that this circles back to Marianne Williamson's "our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure...".
I've been pulling The Devil and The Sun cards a lot recently for my question. You can't imagine how much this response has liberated me.
@@BT-qb7ig Oh! That makes me happy. You didn't ask, but I'll tell you that one of my favorite meanings of the Sun card is from Mary K. Greer. She used "birth of divine child". I think that fits so well with the Blake quote. All the best, Donna
It seems like a hatred for accountability is why the Devil gets a bad wrap. We have fun with our lovers and 2 of cups cards (yay) but when the Devil enforces the consequences of the desires we consent to, we blame the devil and not our own lack of self control. Seems to me like there’s more power in being the author of the contract than the star crossed lover demanding the services of the Devil.
I think of ego, pride, and lack of control, lack of intuition, disconnection.
Perhaps also mundane, materialistic, superficial or asleep.
The devil isn’t “bad” necessarily but necessary as the devil provides something to compare with the light.
The part where you talked about being addicted to going to bed late / “rebelling” like that RESONATED with me wow
Grapes and fire.
Grapes are the sweet things in life, fire are the passions and energies we are addicted to. Anger, fighting, energy.
I am addicted to the white fire of my computer screen.
I drew the Devil today as a daily draw card. I use the Dark Wood deck and am never surprised when it cuts right to the point. This card directly addresses my current struggle and gives me a lot to think about. I was surprised about the freedom angle of this card. I think a lot of us can fall into the trap of being wrapped up in thoughts and emotions and think of them as the 'self', when that's not really the case. You can transcend these thoughts that may be making you feel that you're not free.
Both card you present it are my birth cards. I love devil card. It was my beginning on self realization and breaking the chains. It’s amazing card to start on shadow work. ❤
I love the part about safety and freedom. I also love the part about the chains and how they are loose enough to pull off. In a million years I wouldn’t have put together this false choice between safety or freedom instead of belief that safety and freedom can go together. 🙏🏽🔥❤️
This card was so good it kind of showed me a different direction in a different reading that I been experienced for myself it was alighting mean it was fulfilling and I'm looking forward to the freedom and I've been saying freedom for so long unplugging and replugging I get it
3:24 you just blew my mind
Ive known about these two cards for so long and hadnt reqlized the possibility that theyre the same two people
After your great description The devil card became my favorite card! I know that from now on when this card shows up in my readings I will not be afraid.
I'm so happy to hear this ♥
My SP's prumal need- mummy issues.. wanting her approval. But he can free himself.. he has the tools.. but he has to know it. And he sacrifices his soul and do abovr and beyond for his mom forgetting that he can balance it out. .
I love this card. It reminds us as above so below. The Devil trains us the dynamic aspect of life. Also reminds me when Goddess Auset of Egypt went underworld the shadow to revenge for her husband Osiris
What happens when you fall in love with devils (question was what is my soul contract with this person*)😁 What does that mean? 🤔can someone help me
It looks to me like the devil has set the guys tail on fire with his torch. I am loving your videos. Thank you so much for all this great infirmation. 🦋💛🦋
Yes, that was my observation as well about the fire
Thanks for this lesson! I used to struggle a lot with the Devil card, specially because I couldn’t see any “light” in it. But your insight about being aware of what the Devil represents and this being the actual bright side of the card made a lot of sense to me!
I love that this helped you see this card in a different light, Felipe!
I loved this analysis so much. One of the most persistent metaphors I've used when thinking about my life is that at one point I "sold out" or "sold my soul", and it really broke me. I've tried to change the course of my life ever since, but it's so, so hard. Now this card appeared in my reading as my "future" and I see it as another test like that, and I am afraid to fail it again. I've also realized that being safe AND free never even crossed my mind as a possibility. So yeah, lots to unpack here.
Thank you for sharing this - I feel like you'll pass the next test, since it sounds like you learned from the previous experience.
Got this one on my first ending in Cyberpunk 2077. Definitely gonna watch all the series you have made. Next, The Fool
The torch Deliberately pointed downwards was my aha! And the journaling question that got me to stand up was 'What are you giving your power away to?' Thank You Kate!
I like how you mention even things like credit card debt, things on more mundane levels of understanding could be indicative of the devil card. Thanks, that opened my understanding a little more to the devil.
Beautiful explanation❤
What a deep dive--much deeper than any other explanation of the Devil I've read. This really makes me think about my life and some changes I might want to make. There are certainly some things we'd all like to change, but this makes me realize that I'm doing pretty well and have a lot to be grateful for. Thank you for this thought-provoking and, for me, inspiring message.
This is the only therapy session I needed, thank you!
haha, you're welcome! ;)
Thank you so much for this video tutorial on the DEVIL card! It was fabulous and so helpful.
i also think devil can also represent that too much freedom can be on his level too, for the characters on it being fully naked
My card last year was Temperance and let me say towards the end of the year I went in the exact opposite direction of moderation and balance. Now this was before I started getting into tarot and I really had no guidance other than my intuition which I ignored to push for a result that shouldn't have been pushed for. Now my card for this year is The Devil and I am definitely understanding what I need to focus on as far as self sabotage and addiction but I am having difficulty knowing how to break free from those habits and if i want to break free at all. Regardless of my feelings at the moment I am thankful for this video as it has clarified at lot for me!!
Lol...it is a horni card! I'm addicted to these great tutorials!! Thank you Kate🙂
haha, glad you enjoyed, Will! Thanks for watching :)
i love these videos! you have the most calming, peaceful energy
Such a powerful card on so many levels. Another great deep dive. Looking for comfort and routine will never let you truly experience freedom. I learned that the hard way. Even if you think you can “control” comfort and routine- change comes along and throws it all out the window and then we see and feel the devils chains. Thanks Kate. I love this series! 🌟🙏🏻
I couldn't agree more, Susan!!! Well said.
As usual, a fantastic watch! Thanks very much Kate :-}
The first time I saw the devil card, I was a child, and it was in response to what would my future look. The person read it to me to mean I'd get married. Haven't gotten married, but it's not entirely an irrelevant card in my life either. Some people are probably better at projecting than reading people.
My thoughts on the card evolved since then, and I like your interpretation. I do get a sense of rebellion from the card, which might be why it leads to the tower. If someone doesn't break free, something will probably break anyway.
Personally, what got me to acknowledge you was when I 😂realised I have been called "The Devil" by various women in my life who hold different titles in my life like stepsister, ex girlfriend, (no they're not the same person you nasty minded folks!) aunt etc...
The Biblical foundation I have of The Devil wasn't enough to help me make sense of why these women called me the Devil, I'm not John Wick, I'm not the boogyman! Along came your video and everything made absolute sense.
I will admit I have behaved more as temptation to women than anything else really. Not sure if it's a desire thing but I revel in that and I also build deep emotional relationships with women where some have confessed to not being able to sleep without reading my words cause I only email. (I don't do it on purpose!)
Okay wait I feel like should quit going on otherwise this will turn to a therapy session of sorts. Thoughts.
Daily Tarot Girl (I hope I remembered your channel name right, this the first time I've ever felt compelled to pour part of my guts out in a comment!😅 You just really brought a lot of clarity and I'm really really really grateful for that! I should really stop typing... Plus it felt amazing just getting the above out of me.)
THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!
THANK YOU!

Thank you so much for sharing :) I'm glad my description of The Devil card resonated for you and gave you some aha! moments. Good to hear!!!! thank you for watching :)
Shadow self
This really resonated. I just had a dream where I was shown this card TWO times. Not sure of the double card meaning, but this video was helpful! 🙏
I'm glad this was helpful to you! Your dream sounds powerful!
He is the "light bearer"- lucifer!! He wants to show us our inner darknesses; he presents us with the enchantments of the earth realm, but let us choose our own path. Its always up to us, we have free will. But we were also put here to experiment with our five senses, without loosing our connection to eternity and the creator. We can only see light if there is darkness, and we can only acknowledge our darkness if there is a "lucifer"... Think about it...
I had a aha moment, today I got the devil card at my tarot reading after a holographic breathing session... During that breathing session the thought I wanna have sex repeated itself over n over.
And lately when I try to meditate I often get aroused by sexual images in my mind. Plus few days ago at my therapie session I realized why I'm so addicted to negative thinking and sadbes There's a lot of sadness and negativity within the family system I grew up in and it feels like a part of me wants to stay loyal to the family through negativity and sadness, even though I feel also at the same time I want to be free of that. I could feel it kinda rambling in my body like a tornado, a lot of movement. That's where I am right now. At the same time new doors are opening up in my life and new chances are presenting themselves. A whole lot going on. Feels like a roller-coaster ride. Plus I'm left with... The way that can be named is not the way. Which to me means the way cannot be named because the path is created by each step that is taken, so there can be no label for that path cause no one not even the one who is going or creating that path knows what's coming next. Now I'll be honest, I don't wanna let go of sex, but I wanna let go of negativity and the belief, that I have to stay small, giving power away.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Umaer :)
Wow. This was so transformational for me. Thank you.
I was doing a reading on myself and was confused about this card. You cleared up my confusion! Thank you so much.
Please do the video juxtaposing the lovers and the devil.. love your work.
This Devil card and another The lovers appeared on cards that I picked when my mind asked a question should this year be the right time to leave my current job? Hope you could do a video about the relationship of the two deeper...
It looks like the Devil is doing the "Vulcan Salute". Of course this card was drawn before Star Trek. The gesture comes from the Jewish tradition, meaning "Lord" or "Blessings".
Yes, that's right! And yeah, it does look like the vulcan hand sign, I hadn't noticed that.
The Devil doing that would be an inversion of its meaning, I think. A curse instead of a blessing.
He’s gonna burn his arm off by holding the torch down that way.
totally!
Hey! I love your videos. Pls pls make videos for rest of the cards too! Many thanks, keep enlightening.
thank you :) Glad you're enjoying! I'll be making the video for The Tower soon....I will do a video for each major, don't worry!
Thank you so much! I love the journaling questions.
Fantastic card analysis Kate! Looking beautiful as always 😍
I got this card few days ago me and my husband always had feeling something wrong but i ignore it now after we got married there no love life or sex in months i address this issue goes nowhere, he makes it feel like it my fault don't always believe it.
Yes the Devil is usually a person who due to his own selfish materialistic desires and vices chooses to stay in bondage or negative situation/ partnership etc. repeating the toxic cycle. It’s due to their carnal passions and materialism.
It’s a person drawn to the lower vibrations and is working through animalistic desires and vices. It’s still a lesson this person has to explore and go through.
I have seen this card appearing in a marriage where people are not staying for love but rather due to material security which keeps them unhappy and in bondage. But they choose to stay, because they like the power and control the money gives them.
The person also was prone to addictions and vices (alcohol and gambling).
I love your videos and your energy! ✨
Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together for us all, to help us all understand each care at a deeper level. I so appreciate it.....thank you from Terri from Australia
Thank you so much for sharing ❤
I also noticed their tails. The woman’s tail is showcasing grapes which are known to be sort of aphoristic and induce a drunken feeling and the men’s tail burning with the lust of fire.
I loved your interpretation of this card. It erased the strangeness around it for me. Thank you, from a new subscriber. 😊
Awesome! Thanks for subscribing and I'm glad you found this helpful :)
Thank you.
So insightful! Thank you 🙏🏻
Thank You ❤
Thank you so much for this video. Very very helpful and gave me a lot of clarity. Blessings to you.
Loved it! Thank you! I am an experienced reader and I kept writing notes for myself. Thank you again for such great insights!
I'm so glad this was so helpful to you, Marianna ♥ Thanks for watching!
This was a really good dive into this! I always understood this card on a basic level but I like the “good news” about this showing up because it is in this that we can find the helpful side to this appearing in a reading. I hadn’t really thought about that! Also exactly what can be addictions…such as habits not just alcohol or drugs. Thanks for the insightful meaning and journaling questions
So glad you enjoyed this, Renee! ♥
Super helpful!
Thank you very much. this video is very interesting and very well done. Many compliments!!!
A big hug.😊☘🌺🌹🌻
That was soooo good to watch. I learned so much! 🙏🏿
When I pull the devil card in my own readings, it’s a warning representing someone in my life that is being controlled by the devil. Not to be fooled by them. To be careful. I pulled it 2 x’s today. And the devil is at play here.
Whenever you can, please dive deep into The Tower. Will really appreciate that. :)
That's next on my list! Coming very soon...
What a brilliant video, thank you, really helpful x
Thanks for posting this really helped me understand.
I can relate to you regarding the sleeping late at night.
thank you. great video here, and i think this came for me at the right time
This was so helpful!!! Thank you!!
This was great- thanks ❤️

I love your channel! You’re relatable & you’re providing great insight into the card.
Okay, I’m not worried anymore
Thank you Kate ❤️🙏🇬🇧
Also capricorn starsign x
martin yup! ;)
I asked for a past thing and the Devi and 6 of cups pop out 😔
Love this
Great interpretatons
I haven't notised the tail being grapes before, how could I miss that? 🙈
Amazing
This is just a side thought. If struggling with waking up on time is a real struggle for you that you can’t seem to break, you may have adhd or some kind of sleep disorder that needs extra supports in place to wake up on time ❤
That's interesting - I hadn't considered that. Just this past year I've managed to overcome this bad habit by scheduling Zoom calls and appointments at 9am - if I have a specific reason to get up, I have no problem doing it. This seems to be the trick for me.
@@DailyTarotGirl oh good I’m glad you figured it out!
Valuable lesson! I have a special set of conundrums because I'm new to tarot and using the Dark Mansion deck. (I have the Universal Waite but relate to the other more intensely.) Many symbols are different from the Waite, definitely in this card, and I know I'm missing nuances in my novice condition, but there seems to be no guidebook written for Dark Mansion. Plenty of reviews, but since I own the deck.... Does anyone know of a guide? Or have the deck and thoughts about this version of the Devil card?
Thank youuuuuu
My card...
Like, subscribe & a comment for you to tell you that you are a legend. thank you. you opened my eyes.
thank you so much ♥
@@DailyTarotGirl 💖🌼🌸
Is there a devils card where the couple is sitting down?
So making a deal with the devil is like selling your self
a time share condo
A terrible idea, right?
What does the symbol "4" represent on his raised palm; and what is the significance of the sign he is making with his hand?
Thank you so much for these deep dives, I find them to be incredibly helpful! The journal questions are very insightful!
How would the devil reversed be interpreted when asking who is the woman a man wants?
So the meaning of the inverse Devil, a highly disciplined, responsible woman of good temper. Seem fitting?
Death card your birthday the day you were born

Please write a tarot book ...
Aww, thank you :) I've been thinking about it these days.
@@DailyTarotGirl This is synchronicity a la C.G.Jung. .. Write much like you speak - clear, humorous and full of deep insights. :-)

❤️👍
Interesting that his legs are shaped like a heart
oh wow, I've never noticed this detail before!
I think some of the true evils of this world are born of ignorance. But that ignorance is not a result of a lack of spiritual understanding. The church has been responsible for hindering innovation thought out history, from studies of astrology, to history and medicine. Your definition of ignorance precludes religious peoples when, many religious people actually use their beliefs to perpetuate ignorance and polarizing value judgment that are unhelpful to growing our understanding of the human experience and compassion for eachothers realities.
Wow thank you. Love you❤
