Maybe, maybe ....
The devil is a situation or outcome which you fear .... something you don't want to face ... the unknown ....
Linking it with the Ace Of Cups its maybe relating to a relationship or a friendship or certainly an interaction where you have heartfelt feelings for someone ...
The knight and the princess are the two people in the situation ... same kind of social standing ...maybe even same family but it doesn't have to be ...
Both of the suit of wands suggests the pair have empowerment or choice in their own destinies .... maybe both are in a rut in their interaction and the fear (the devil) is that you can see the both of them using their own choice of freewill and going their own seperate ways ....
Maybe both need a breathing space .... a cooling off ... or to spend some time doing their own thing to make their minds up ...
Maybe the fear is that they will find their own spaces and use the magic of their wand never to come back to each other again?
The Devil is 'the lord of the gates of matter' in the cabala ... path 26 ... The Path Of Ayin or the eye .... maybe you are the eye of the beholder and you are scared of letting that which you see actually develop?
It is a whole host of possibilities ... but I sense it is your fear which the devil refers to not being fearful for others ....
The ace of cups can relate to Kether and the feeding of someone's psyche to become the talisman animal of Kether ... the swan .... maybe the princess of cups is feeling a little lacking in confidence ... and is in need of some change in her life to become the swan ....???
The Princess of wands ... now Malkuth associates itself with the princess trumps ... the ace of cups and the princess of wands (and the knight of wands) are minor arcana cards ... so the cards themselves suggest this is a minor issue ... a minor worry or fear .... this influence of malkuth suggests you maybe someone's Guardian Angel ... have you a younger sister .. or a close female friend who you see as a sister? Does this person have a relationship issue ... one you have been viewing from afar as an observer???
mmmmm .... tell the person to hug an Oak tree for strength (no seriously) or burn the incense sandalwood ... both are associated with Malkuth and grounding ... maybe she needs open space and open air to think before a decision needs ot be made?
(IMG:
style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) making any sense or am I one million miles away .... just using intuition to write a tale like I always do with the tarot ...
the Knight Of Wands ... knights associate with Chokmah ... the supernal father ... is the issue with her father or a boyfriend who is the father figure .... Maybe your daughter (that is if you have a daughter????
?????
