The Devil Card
The Devil (XV) is the fifteenth trump or Major Arcana card in traditional Tarot decks.
Meaning:
The Devil is the card of humanly desires. It represents being seduced by the material world and physical pleasures. Also living in fear, domination, and being caged by an overabundance of luxury. Discretion should be used in personal and business matters.
The Devil in Love:
The Devil also indicates sexual interests such as bondage, bisexuality, and fetishes. In its darkest form, the Devil can represent sexual slavery and obsession.
They must have you at all costs.
Depiction:
The Devil card depicts the devil as the ancient goat-god Dionysius, shown sitting on his throne while watching over a male and female captive chained naked to the podium on which the Devil sits. The lovers are slaves to their desire, urges, and raw passions. Each has small horns on their head, similar to the devil—a sign that they are becoming more and more like the devil the longer they stay. Both have tails—a further symbol of their animalistic tendencies and raw instincts.
They appear to be held against their will, but upon closer inspection, you'll notice the chains around their necks are loose.
They are free to go whenever they like.
