In the RWS Devil, we see the Lovers in a new light (or rather darkness ). They now have tails and horns, representing the fact that they've been taken over by their animalistic desires. The Devil sits on a half-cube, symbolizing this is not based in reality; it is based on incomplete knowledge. On the man's and woman's tails are the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge and the flame from the Tree of Life. My question is, what does this mean (having the flame and fruit on the end of the tail)? Does it mean these things are behind them, where they are no longer aware of them? What exactly do the fruit and flame represent to you?
