Pfft! What do they know.

I had a pretty crappy week last week. My back was unbearably flared up after my birthday and I was not feeling at all well… which was no doubt fairly evident from the postings I’ve been making. Anyway a friend sent me one of those silly internet meme things about what “Tarot Card Are You” and after I answered the questions it told me I was the Devil!!!

You are The Devil

Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession. The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.

Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really “Satan” at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild – or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.

I didn’t post it because well

  1. I’m pretty sure I’m not the Devil,
  2. I was curious if I gained this less than flattering result due to being in a lot of pain/taking lots of drugs and
  3. because I’m fairly confident it’a all a pile of BS anyway. 

But it stayed open in my browser all week and when I saw it just now I thought I’d do the silly test again now that my back has largely settled back down to it’s normal levels of pain and discomfort  (which isn’t to say the pain’s gone… it’s just back to what I consder ‘bearable’ or ‘normal’… yeah my normal sucks).  So now things had calmed somewhat I was sure that my usual sweet and charming disposition would be reflected in my answers and I would get a different and lovely result telling me I was ‘The Moon’ or something equally feminine and lovely…here was my result on reanswering the questionnaire…
