Tarot Topic
The Devil is the tarot card associated with Capricorn. The Devil relates to bondage, constraint, and the great "gremlin" that keeps you stuck in old thought patterns. The card shows a large creature looming over two figures controlling them through their chains. The man and woman are naked, symbolizing purity and light. By focusing on this pure, positive energy, the couple can free themselves of their chains. See what else you see!
