Individual Card Meanings
The Devil
惡魔
The Devil shows two figures chained at the feet of a horned beast, yet their chains are loose—they could leave if they chose to. This card represents the bondage we create for ourselves through attachment, addiction, materialism, or unhealthy relationships. It asks you to examine what holds you captive. What patterns, beliefs, or desires have become your prison? The Devil is not about external evil but about our shadow self—the parts of ourselves we deny or project onto others. When this card appears, it is time to honestly face your attachments and ask whether they serve your highest good or keep you in chains.

教宗
The Hierophant represents spiritual authority, traditional values, and the transmission of sacred knowledge. Seated between two pillars like the High Priestess, but in a religious setting, he bridges the divine and the earthly. This card speaks of learning from established traditions, seeking guidance from mentors or institutions, and following a conventional path. It may indicate formal education, religious ceremony, or any situation where conforming to established norms serves your highest good. The Hierophant reminds us that there is wisdom in tradition and value in shared beliefs and practices.
