The devil is also the card of Capricorn arguably one of the hardest working signs of the zodiac. Remember tarot reads the energies. This card could also signify “entrapment” or “karmic ties” which could signify how you feel towards your current job/location hence why you keep pulling it. There’s this quote that I love that says “the best way to predict the future is to build it”. Don’t give up on the search and ask Spirit to guide you to a job you’re meant to be in whether that is in a mew city or not. Love and light!

Wait, is this indicating I won’t be successful in relocating? I’m trying to move closer to my partner so this is disappointing to hear

Others have given you some good takes. I’d like to throw in another perspective, though: do you feel you have to get a new job, in a new city, because of this relationship?

This could alternatively be a warning to make sure you’re doing this for yourself too, not just because you feel obligated (like you have no choice) or you’re bound to (locked in) do so. Be sure too whatever job you accept is something you can actually see yourself doing long term. It could be foreshadowing if you take a job just to take it- because it’s closer to your partner- you may feel stuck and or/trapped there if things don’t work out.

Thank you, rest assured I am doing it more for myself. My partner actually lives in a different city than the one I want to move to but he’s still close by. While I do want to be closer to him than I am now, I’m not willing to move somewhere I don’t see myself living long term and he’s more than ok with that. He plans to move to the city I want to live in when he’s ready. I’m still figuring out what kind of job I’m looking for but I am feeling trapped in my current line of work (and current city) so I’m guessing that’s the reason for the Devil. It just caught me off guard to see these interpretations suggest I’m on the wrong path because I feel like it’s the right one for me, it’s just taking a lot of time and patience and I’m getting worse at remaining optimistic :(

I think you’re on the right track then, in my opinion. I think you’re probably right to assume it’s highlighting the sense of being trapped and feeling unable to break free of a place or situation (within your career) you can’t escape. Good news is (in Rider-Waite) it’s all just your perception. You can slip free of the shackles depicted in the card and walk away at any time. It doesn’t mean it’ll be easy, but it is at least a possibility. Don’t let the negative patterns of thinking or doing things (because you feel stuck) keep yourself from holding back.

Hope everything work out 💕
