True nature
Sometimes things are not as they appear. This idyllic, romantic notion of a young woman, lovingly and devotedly bending over a cute little animal is, in reality, a life-threatening situation. She is holding a Tasmanian devil in her arms – a marsupial that eats the flesh of dead animals, behaves aggressively towards people and emits forth a loud, screeching sound. The animal is found on Tasmania, the island southeast of Australia.
This ‘wolf in sheep’s clothing’ card indicates a detrimental situation or person in your life. There is a hidden agenda, opportunism or even betrayal and deceit. It is skilfully disguised with sympathetic-sounding words, sugar-coated stories and empathetic gestures, but the underlying intentions are impure. Somewhere in the background, your nervous system is already making you aware of this because somehow you just cannot seem to fully relax into this matter. If you think: ‘if I just put enough love into it everything will be fine’ then you are ignoring the true nature of the matter. The ‘so-ness’, as the Buddhists call it. Everything has its so-ness: it is so and not otherwise, no matter how much we would like it to be otherwise. You can dress a wild animal in a pretty outfit but it will still be a dangerous animal.
It is also possible that there is a Tasmanian devil within you presenting itself differently than it is: a behavioural pattern that seems innocent but is toxic. The longer you keep covering it up and justifying it to yourself, the more damage it can cause. After all, that little devil that you feed will grow to be big.
The Tasmanian devil would like to add that danger has its uses if managed carefully and in moderation. If you are aware of the risks and know your own strength you are in a position to handle them. The danger itself is not the problem, only ignorance and recklessness of the situation are.
