Meet Aliya Bree Hall, a lesbian author, freelance journalist, and founder of Sapphic Stories Book Club: Queer & Feminist Tales.

Her essay in our Devil issue is an intimate exploration of memory, shame, and trauma—and how she is learning to court pleasure.

A person with long curly hair, wearing a green sweater, smiles brightly while holding up a tarot card. The card depicts The Devil, illustrated as a woman in a red polka-dotted dress sitting on a mushroom, with a spiderweb in the background.

quote card with a cream background and a gold decorative flourish at the top. The text reads:
“I've only pulled The Devil card twice. The first was days before I embarked on a painful but necessary journey through my memory, and the second was in its reversal form at the end of that lunar year. It's a deeply personal card to me, and with it showing up in my life when and how it did, it's hard not to interpret the card as an embodiment of trauma. But I think, more than that, The Devil is a reminder of the pattern of shame and guilt that I have punished myself with, and shows me I'm capable of moving through that.” –Aliya Bree Hall

A person holds a magazine titled “The Rebis” with a bold red cover. The artwork features a surreal illustration of a human figure entwined with a goat, dragon wings, and botanical elements like grapes and leaves. At the bottom, the words “Tarot Creative Writing Art” are printed. The magazine rests on a light gray surface with crystals and a smoky quartz obelisk in the background.

Stephanie Adams-Santos & Anna Barouh Davis return as Rebis contributors! They created a ritual guide for our Devil anthology—one that will take you on a journey of initiation and transformation, where we shed old skin, and embrace what is emergent: our dreaming, our becoming.

A person with curly dark hair, a septum piercing, and a patterned shirt covered in strawberry shapes holds up a tarot card, The Devil (XV). The card shows a horned, goat-like figure with one knee raised, surrounded by abstract shapes. A mounted animal head is visible on the wall behind them. The image is in black and white.

A person with brown hair in a braid and bangs, wearing a patterned cardigan and white top, smiles while holding up a tarot card called 'The Devil.' Behind them are artworks on the wall, including a large blue abstract figure, a framed photograph, and a pencil drawing of a person wearing sunglasses and a sports bra.

Inside cover art by @xavieralopez.bsky.social

A bold red silhouette against a black background, depicting a surreal fusion of forms: the head of a horned goat, abstract branching shapes with circular ends, floral and plant-like tendrils, and animal limbs. The overlapping shapes create a dense, mysterious, otherworldly mass.

Meet @larisanjou.bsky.social, a multidisciplinary artist based in Anjou, France. A daughter of the Puerto Rican diaspora, her work explores histories through a vibrant visual language that she calls Domestic Psychedelia. For The Rebis, she created a beautiful linoprint illustration of The Devil.

A person with long brown hair lies on the ground, gazing upward with a playful expression. Resting in their hair is the tarot card Le Diable (The Devil) from the Marseille deck, showing a horned figure with two smaller chained figures. The person wears red lipstick and a gold septum ring.

a fucking joy and absolute privilege to work with my dear friend and cohost @beescolnick.bsky.social on this KILLER piece for the rebis!

The Rebis 〰️ Literary Magazine @therebis.com · Aug 28

Meet @beescolnick.bsky.social, who wrote a delicious essay for The Rebis about The Devil through the lens of reality dating show "Love Island"—exploring what keeps us chained to cultural myths of love/relationships/dating & what it means to watch and empower others behaving in monstrous ways 👀

a person wearing sunglasses and a beige hat that says “FRIEND OF DEATH” holds up a tarot card, The Devil (XV). They are making a playful grimace, sticking their tongue out slightly. The card illustration shows two puppet-like figures controlled by large hands above them, with a red pentagram at the center.

A text graphic with a decorative gold flourish at the top and bottom reads:
“‘The Devil shows us where we feel trapped. It especially reveals situations where our feelings might not match the facts. But there’s such humanity in this experience; such an innocent desire to break free, to be happy, to be loved. And The Devil sure is a character we love. For better, and for worse. Our beloved tricksters and trappers encourage us to stray from the light. They invite us to be bad; to have fun, maybe, but also to be damned.’ –Rebecca ‘Bee’ Scolnick.”
