Situation:
I asked my tarot deck why I can't enjoy anything I'm writing this month, and for the most part I understand its answer, but the last card in the spread tells me how to fix the problem. It's supposed to indicate how I can start feeling fulfilled by what I write. The Devil is in this position and I'm confused.
The Devil:
It's a card that generally indicates indulgence and materialism. It can show up when there's an imbalance in someone's life. Like, maybe they're eating too much, spending a lot of money, or they're spending too much time thinking about how attractive their lover is.
Either way, I don't understand why it appeared, because I have already tried to base my writing on instincts and basic needs. It hasn't worked so far. I keep feeling unsatisfied with what I'm writing even when I try to indulge my "dark side," so to speak.

It seems like I'm missing something about the meaning of this card, but I may be in the wrong mindset to see it.
Does anyone have any ideas about the card's meaning in this situation?
I don't know what you are writing, but if it is a romance novel, it is no doubt telling you it needs more sex....at least that was what it was telling me, and it was in response to a question I asked because an editor had told me it had to have a lot of sex for publishers to even consider it...apparently it is what publishers look for because it is what sells.
