Combination of card Eight of Pentacles and card The Devil

The Devil in the upright position and the Eight of Pentacles in the upright position form a rather interesting combination. Both cards essentially speak of a strong desire for material well-being and success. But you need to be careful: behind all this might hide an addiction or a blind pursuit of wealth. This can be reflected, for example, in a person willing to do anything to achieve their goals, even if it harms others.

Combination of reversed card Eight of Pentacles and card The Devil

The combination of the Devil upright and the Eight of Pentacles reversed suggests that the pursued goals may lead to a loss of stability or even a crisis. Apparently, there is an uncontrolled desire for wealth and power that can turn into trouble. For example, someone might take a risk by investing all their money in dubious ventures and lose everything.

Combination of card Eight of Pentacles and reversed card The Devil

When the Devil card reverses and the Eight of Pentacles remains upright, it indicates that a person can free themselves from their fears, addictions, and limitations. They begin to value their work and effort without striving for unhealthy wealth. Thus, a person might leave a high-paying but oppressive job for a beloved activity that brings in less money but more joy.

If both arcana are reversed, it indicates upcoming changes. The person will likely realize their mistakes and strive to change their life. This may manifest in them starting to fight their addictions, seeking to break free from them, and beginning to appreciate what they already have. For example, they might give up an unhealthy lifestyle and start working on themselves, both physically and spiritually.
