The Devil is one of the most misunderstood cards in the tarot deck. Dark? Yes. Negative? Not always. In a Yes or No reading, the Devil card means: No — unless you break free from what’s holding you back.
This card represents entrapment, unhealthy attachments, addiction, obsession, and fear. If you’re asking a question related to love, work, or life choices, The Devil urges you to evaluate whether you’re acting out of desire, fear, or control — and whether the outcome will serve your higher self.
❌ The Devil Tarot Yes or No
- Upright: No — unless you recognize toxic patterns.
- Reversed: Yes — if you’re willing to let go of attachments or destructive habits.
The Devil doesn’t deny your desires — it simply warns you about being consumed by them.
💖 The Devil in Love
Upright: Intense passion, obsession, or even a karmic connection. This could be a relationship based on lust, control, or codependency.
Reversed: A chance to break free from a toxic dynamic. Healing from manipulation, jealousy, or unhealthy behavior.
💔 Breakup
Upright: The breakup may be caused by obsession or imbalance. The relationship could have been emotionally draining or possessive.
Reversed: A sign that you’re finally freeing yourself. The chains are coming off, and healing is possible.
💭 Does He Think About You?
Yes — obsessively. This isn’t just daydreaming; it’s fixation.
📩 Does He Miss Me?
Yes — but it’s complicated. He may miss the comfort or control rather than love.
⟳ Is He Going to Come Back to Me?
Upright: Possibly — but not for the right reasons. There may still be unhealthy attachments.
Reversed: Maybe — if both of you are healing and growing. Otherwise, this return could repeat old cycles.
📞 Will He Call Me?
Upright: Yes — but expect manipulation or drama.
Reversed: Yes — with the potential for clarity, but only if true change has occurred.
👩👧 Is There Anyone Else?
Upright: Possibly — infidelity, secrets, or emotional dependency may be at play.
Reversed: There may have been someone else, but the situation is being released or resolved.
🧠 The Devil as Feelings
Upright: Obsession, lust, or emotional dependence. This person feels drawn to you like a magnet, but it may not be love — more like an addiction.
Reversed: They’re trying to detach. Their feelings are changing or they’re attempting to regain control over intense emotions.
💼 The Devil for Career and Money
Upright: You may feel trapped in a toxic job or career that pays well but drains your soul. Money might be flowing, but at what cost?
Reversed: A sign of release. You’re becoming aware of how to escape unfulfilling situations and seeking purpose beyond material success.
🧘 The Devil as Advice
Upright: Acknowledge your shadows. Are you driven by fear or desire? What are you avoiding? This card invites self-awareness, not shame.
Reversed: You have the power to walk away. Break the chains — whether it’s a person, job, belief, or habit.
