Daily Mindfulness The Devil

This is my all time favorite Devil card! Happy Smiling Goat Devil - and if this were a song...
​The devil inside
The devil inside
Every single one of us
The devil inside

The Devil
Goat and scapegoat - the Devil card is much maligned - said to be the bad/evil card, but no. All cards have the potential to be good and or evil - just like we humans have that same potential within us.

Masculine energy at its most masculine. And the symbolism on the card shows just that.  This Devil that people have been brought up to fear is life itself - happy, creative, unrestrained life. This Devil wants us to grow and unite with everything. This card then is the complete appreciation of all existing things. He represents the finding of ecstasy in every phenomenon and transcends all limitations. ..
.
Blind impulses, ambition, temptation - are a few of the ways this card can be defined - but if we accept our "good" impulses as well as the "bad" ones, we can remained honest and balanced. We are free to choose!  Embrace, don't hide your shadow side - by hiding it, it becomes something bigger or darker than it should be.  The Great Work is to reconcile ourselves into wholeness - and we do that by facing all our disparate parts and uniting them together.
