HelloI did the Tetraktys Spread for myself and got The Devil for the following position; "The Sustainer Card depicts that which helping you remain balanced and healthy." I know the devil is not always a negative card but in alot of cases it can be unhealthy so im wondering how to apply it in this instance. I have some thoughts; 1. I feel at ease when i feel in control of my life(the chains) or when there is nothing controlling me(shackles are loose). 2. Having fun and not taking things too seriously 3. Exploring my negative qualities and work on them? 4. Breaking away from negative patterns and habits - there are chains but they are loose so i can break free if i really want to. I'm inclined to think it is the second or fourth point - more on the 4th. I was wondering has any different opinions to me? Thanks pls dnt quote might edit later IP: Logged |

I would make a connection to the 10th position. 10. The Premise represents the factors that form the the foundation for the entire spread. (mine was King of wands )I have turned the spread upside down and in this position the devil would be clarified by the light(#8) and dark(#9). IP: Logged |

Just to double check with you, your number 10 is the bottom card and then they go from left to right(9, 8, 7, 6.....etc) ? eg. Strength is number 4(The Earth Card ) and 4 wands is no. 1(fire card)?IP: Logged |

The queen is a beautiful card on its own. In this card is as black cat. Sometimes there is a dark side within everybody and everyone. High up on a horse (=page,knight) the fall hurts and there comes a disruptive quality with it along. The Devil can help to face the dark side and see the light. As there is the earth and fire symbol in this card represented. I tend to say:It is #3 and #4 in a combination. IP: Logged |

That is true. My cards reflect more the money woman that I am at the moment. That is not very spiritual . IP: Logged |

The Fire Card represents your creative force, will, and ambition. 4 wands - completeness, you dont like not finishing things. ----> I prefer: I love to start things. I do not like routine. The Air Card Your current strategies and thoughts concerning your goals 10 swords - you have so many thoughts that pop out of know where, perhaps you ignore most of them. The Water Card explores your emotional self. 2 cups - balanced. Emotionally fulfilled by spending time with loved ones.
The Earth Card concerns how you dealing with everyday life. strength - alot of order and discipline. It is true for me, but according to astrology I am indecisive. The Creator Card explores that which drives you in new directions. ace of pents - learning, exploring. . It is the fire in me and I will always learn. The Sustainer Card depicts that which helping you remain balanced and healthy. 10 wands - you like being busy? I like that more. The Destroyer Card identifies that which must be jettisoned, so you can move forward. 7 pentacles - perhaps it means learning to balance things ie work/money/exercise? I guess the term long-term is my personal destroyer. My live is movement and daily routine is my personal "destroyer" The Light Card represents the cosmic force which is guiding you towards fulfillment. Judgement - Being open to ideas, using your own judgement. The Dark Card represents the cosmic reaction to your being. 5 Wands - a challenges/tests that you have the strength to overcome and learn from I like yours more than mine. The Premise represents the factors that form the the foundation for the entire spread. King of Wands - activity and creativity? I liked those words and there were some wands in the spread. In my case they made perfect sense in the position they landed. Authority figure · Financial gain · Honest and trustworthy · Mediation · Professional

I would think since the devil also represents human life and being separated from God what is keeping you healthy is your human self and its something you need to experience to remain balanced in the world.IP: Logged |

Thanks athenegoddess and empress for your inputs. Would make sense there too, thanks Thanks for the feedback GK, though what do you mean when you say "I like yours more than mine."?
