The Devil

The Devil

The devil in this card appears in his most famous Satyr form, also known as Baphomet. In addition to the half-goat, half-human body, this devil has bat wings and an inverted pentagram on his forehead. He stands on a pedestal, to which a naked man and woman are bound, seemingly indicating the devil's dominion over them. Both the man and the woman have horns, suggesting that the longer they spend with the devil, the less human they become. The chains make it appear as if they are captives of the devil. The flame on the man's tail and the bowl of grapes on the woman's tail symbolize their respective obsessions with power and the pleasures of life. Upon closer inspection, both the man and the woman look unhappy. Their personal power has been taken away, leaving them exposed and ashamed.

Upright

The shackles of desire, impure and binding relationships, suffocation or helplessness, addiction, obsession

Reversed
