The Devil

Major Arcana · Card 15

Upright Meaning

Shadow, attachment, the chains we place on ourselves that we have the power to remove.

Reversed Meaning

Release from bondage, reclaiming power, seeing an attachment clearly for the first time.

Themes & Symbolism

The Devil shows the ways we stay attached to what diminishes us. The chains are always loose enough to slip off — if we choose to.
