You are The Devil

Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession

The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.

Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

This is an interesting card and is useful to keep in my LJ as a reminder.  :-)

I am surprised by this, but I recognize the chains that bind me and have been working to remove some of them. (I have succeeded in removing quite a few of my chains, but there are a lot still remaining.)

I acknowledge the ambitions and business skills I do have and the drive to see them through.

The only addictions I have allowed myself to have are playing games and reading books. These I try to keep under tight control so they don't take over my entire life!
