Upright Meaning:
If you are single, the Devil card is asking you to reevaluate your attitudes to love and sex. Perhaps you value pleasure over an emotional connection and this is harming your ability to find a partner. You may feel that right now this is all you are wanting, but the Devil knows that deep down you are craving that true connection.
In regards to love, the Devil card can also suggest that trauma and insecurities are holding you back. A break-up or a difficult past relationship might have made you disconnect from love, believing that it is not for you. But, these chains can be broken! You deserve to let love in and open your heart to romance.
If you are in a relationship, the Devil often represents a damaging partnership. Are you too co-dependent? Is your partner controlling over you? This intensity can be really damaging and affect your long-term happiness. Remember, a relationship should be caring, safe, and respectful that allows you to truly be you.
Reversed Meaning:
The reversed Devil card suggests that you are about to break free from negative love and relationship patterns. Do you seem to always date the same sort of person and it never works out? Perhaps you find yourself to dependant on your partners and anxiety overwhelms your relationships.
The reversed Devil is really hopeful for those of us who find dating and love difficult. It suggests that soon you are going to come to an understanding of your emotional life and what you need from a relationship. This will allow you to go into your next relationship with a fresh mindset and an open heart.
If you are in a relationship, the reversed Devil card suggests that soon you will work on your independence, with or without your partner. Now is the time for you to work on your happiness and wellness.
