The Devil
Daily routines and appearances can mask deeper passions, vices, and repressed urges that will not remain hidden forever. Attempts to deny or hide these impulses are futile, and they will resurface if unacknowledged. The Devil symbolizes the necessity of recognizing and addressing your sins and weaknesses before they manifest in distorted, corrupt, and trapping ways. Look inward honestly to identify whether you are dealing with these urges healthily or allowing them to poison your life, and take conscious action to confront them.

Meaning
You've mowed the lawn, washed the dishes, and done the laundry, but have you addressed the Devil today? The life in the photograph may look happy and perfect, but underneath the surface of our daily routines are our passions and vices. You may have attempted to deny them or hide them away, but they will always rise again. Your sins and weaknesses exist. The Devil must be acknowledged and addressed. Refusal to do so will result in your desires manifesting themselves in distorted and corrupted ways. You must look deep inside yourself to identify those repressed urges, and recognize whether you are dealing with them in healthy ways or allowing them to manifest in ways that trap you in a poisoned life.
Visual Description
A tall rectangular vignette at the top-center shows a red, horned demonic figure with wings leaning forward above two chained human figures whose faces show distress. The inset panel is richly colored in reds and oranges and contrasts with a pale suburban scene behind it. In the foreground a smiling child in a yellow dress stands with an adult whose legs and arms are partially visible, and another child is being held at the adult’s side. A house, trees, and a driveway fill the mid- and background, and the Roman numeral XV and the title "THE DEVIL." appear at top and bottom of the card.
