Step 5 of 9 · Love, Longing and Folly

The Devil

Modern interpretation

Why this step

The Devil is the attachment or compulsion that has more power over you than you would like to admit. The entry says the first honest step is seeing how tightly it holds, and that the chain is often mistaken for a choice. Set beside the stories before it, it asks whether longing has become something you follow instead of something you choose.
