Okay, so I’ve been messing around with tarot cards lately, just for fun, you know? And I kept pulling the Devil and the Tower together. Freaked me out a little, not gonna lie. So, I decided to do a little digging, a little experiment to see what’s up.
My Little Experiment
First, I grabbed my notebook and pen. Always gotta have those, right? Then, I shuffled my deck really well, focusing on the question, “What’s the deal with this Devil and Tower combo?”

I laid out the cards, and bam! There they were again, staring me in the face. Devil and Tower. Okay, universe, I hear you!
So I started writing down everything that came to mind. Like, what do these cards make me feel? The Devil, for me, is all about feeling trapped, maybe by bad habits or unhealthy attachments. And the Tower? Total chaos. Like, everything falling apart.
- Devil: Temptation, feeling stuck, bad choices.
- Tower: Sudden change, destruction, chaos, things I can’t stop.
I spent a good hour just staring at the cards, thinking about my own life. Where was I feeling stuck? What big changes were happening, or maybe needed to happen, even if they were scary?
Then I Started to pull them every day and every day for over a week, bam, Devil and Tower!
Putting it Together
It became clear that these cards, together, were screaming at me. They wanted me to realize that my obsessive tendencies (Devil) were going to trigger some major, unavoidable shake-ups in my life (Tower). Like, I was heading for a crash if I didn’t change something. It sounds simple when some one says it, but when you are in it, it’s not so clear.
I started looking at the areas of my life where I felt that “Devil” energy – maybe overworking, ignoring my health, that kind of stuff. Then, I had to be brave and ask myself, “What needs to be torn down (Tower) so I can build something better?”

It’s still a work in progress, honestly. But now, when I see those two cards, I don’t freak out as much. I see them as a warning, a heads-up to pay attention and make some conscious choices before things blow up on their own, and it has really made a difference.
