The The Devil
The path of Capricorn — Hebrew letter Ayin (Eye) — connecting Tiphareth to Hod.
The Path of Capricorn
The path of confrontation with material bondage and the liberation that comes through awareness. Ayin is the eye — but also the void, the darkness, the illusion of separation from the divine. The Devil in the Tarot is not evil but unconsciousness: the chains that bind us are loose enough to remove, if we recognize them. To walk this path is to understand how the self (Tiphareth) can become trapped in the structures of the mind (Hod) — mistaking the map for the territory, the system for the truth. Liberation comes not from destroying structure but from seeing through it.
If This Path Is Yours
