The Devil (Reversed) | Tarot Card of the Day

“Embrace Personal Liberation, Discard Limiting Beliefs, and Boldly Explore the Unknown” 

The Devil (Reversed) | Tarot Card

The reversed Devil card reveals the loose chains on the upside-down figures, poised to break free under the force of gravity alone.

The shackles which once bound you to your past mistakes or negative habits are loosening. The force of your personal evolution, signified by the 'gravity,' is naturally leading you towards liberation and personal growth. Old habits that once kept you stuck are no longer the insurmountable challenges they once were.   You are letting go of these outdated, self-limiting thoughts. You are finding that you outgrew them, and they no longer hold you in bondage. It's as if you're shedding an old skin that no longer fits. The challenges, obstacles, and limiting beliefs that once seemed like immovable obstacles are starting to lose their grip on you. This signals a significant moment of personal development and self-discovery, an exciting step towards freedom and self-mastery.

Often habitual cynicism will rush in to justify why it's important to hang onto past negative beliefs. It can be comfortable to cling to familiar ways of thinking, even when they're negative or self-defeating. This is where the reversed Devil card reminds us to be vigilant, to resist the temptation to slip back into old, harmful patterns of thought and behavior.

The familiar, even when destructive, is far more comfortable than the unknown. The ego’s cynical aspect hates not knowing things, so it looks for something to attack. Despite the discomfort associated with the unknown, it's important to embrace it in order to move forward. This card serves as a gentle reminder to keep stepping out of your comfort zone, to bravely explore the unfamiliar, and to embrace uncertainty as an opportunity for growth and evolution.

The Devil reversed represents releasing the negative habits and assumptions that keep you in a pessimistic hell. When the Devil appears reversed in a reading, it symbolizes a profound transformation, a breaking away from old patterns and limiting beliefs that have held you back. It's a message of empowerment and liberation, and a sign that you're ready to reclaim your personal power and forge a new path.

Do you struggle with self-esteem or feel trapped in a situation that seems out of your control?

Think about how your own shadow manifests in your life. When you look at the Devil card, you can see a corrupted version of the Lovers card. The figures are chained to the Devil's throne, representing their enslavement to their animalistic nature. But notice that the chains are loose, and they could break free at any moment. This reminds us that we have the power to free ourselves from our own self-limiting thoughts and behaviors if we confront them honestly.

Confronting the Devil is a daunting task for anyone. It represents our inner demons and self-sabotaging behaviors that hold us back from achieving success. This voice of negativity often creeps up just as we are on the verge of a breakthrough, testing our belief in ourselves. The Prince of Lies, as the Devil is known, tries to convince us that he holds more power than we do. But we have a choice every day: to listen to the voice that tells us we are unworthy or to believe in our own worth and potential.

To defeat our shadows, we must embody love and kindness towards ourselves and others. We shouldn't get caught up in defending ourselves against someone else's shadow but instead be of service and help others. When we challenge the lies we tell ourselves and send light and love to those we struggle to forgive, we can unhook ourselves from the Devil's chains. By embracing our better angels, we can take away the Devil's power over us. Remember, the shadow may be real, but we are more powerful.

When the Devil appears reversed, your shadow’s power is fading.

It is time to challenge any remaining unconscious attitudes of fear, anger or sadness that you have been carrying with you. Bring it all into the sunlight. Each day you work on your best self you become less stuck than the day before. It's time to remember your strengths, talents, and abilities. These are who you truly are. You are not the awful things the shadows lurking within wants you to think. Be kinder to yourself and be on your own team!

The Devil reversed means that you have received your "Get out of Hell Free Card." Let the chains of negative thinking slip off and fall away. Know that when these chains emerge that they are born from fear of shadows from the past. Step back into the radiant light of your limitless spirit. You are your present, not your past. You are so much more than what the shadow wants you to believe. The light within you is stronger than the darkness, and it’s time to affirm it.
