I got this card in a reading I did the other day and was wondering about it's significance especially in the Fey deck in particular.
I found it interesting that the tree is emphasized when you reverse this card, rather than the flames, and it almost looks as if the tree is growing from the Devil's mouth, though it's "leaning" away from the flame in the Devil's tail. I love that there's this infinity loop being implied here, that what causes destruction could also aid growth and it feels relevant because I know that some pine cones need fire before they're able to release their seeds and because it makes sense with the Fool's journey as described at the Aeclectic site.
What I'm curious about is the significance of this card being reversed though, 'cause most places have the Devil reversed as being a particularly negative sign. Your thoughts?
