| | Tarot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Tarot decks depict the archetypes of spiritual life, see iconography. | | | The Tarot was not widely adopted by mystics, occultists and secret societies until the 18th and 19th century. | | | On the planet Tarot, nightmares, visions and fantasies become real, and sometimes tangentially, sometimes on-target, the protagonist lives through myths and stories, e.g., the moment Jesus of Nazareth "dies" and accepts his spiritual journey as Christ the savior, related to Tarot cards. |

| | Devil - encyclopedia article about Devil. |
| | The medieval Cathars believed that the Old Testament Yahweh was, in fact, the devil, based partially on ethical interpretations of the Bible and partially on the beliefs of earlier gnostic sects (such as the Marcionists) who regarded the god of the Old Testament as evil or as an imperfect demiurge. | | | In other languages devil may be derived from the same Indo-European root word for deva, which roughly translates as "angel angel is an ethereal creature, found in many mythologies, whose duties are to assist and serve God or the gods of many religious traditions. | | | Moreover, research into Ugaritic texts revealed that the names of the Jewish god were the same as separate gods worshipped in the same region; Yahweh is cognate to Ugaritic Yaw who is there the god of chaos, evil, and world domination. |

| | The Tarot Death Card |
| | The highest ranking trump in Tarot varied from one historical deck to another, and showed either New Jerusalem, Christ Triumphant, from Rev 5:5-6, or the Last Resurrection, and was called either the World or the Angel, from Rev 11:15. | | | The fifteenth century Tarot card showing the Reaper as a cardinal also points to the religious significance of Death. | | | However, the overriding design of Waite’s Tarot, on the literal level, remains one of life, death, and resurrection via the grace of God. |

| | It is also consistent with all the various titles of the card, including the enigmatic "God's House", for the gnostic Devil is worshipped by the unknowing as God. | | | In the Tarot de Marseille, the card rather mysteriously acquired the title "Maison Dieu", the House of God. | | | Paradoxically, however, the fire seems more celestial than infernal; it usually arcs down from heaven. |

| | This Tarot is especially valuable for its inclusion of the spelling and zodiacal degrees of the zodiac angels, the Shemhameforesh, drawn from Old Testament sources and invoked through theurgy. | | | But I am inclined to believe that the most common astro-to-Arcana correspondences used in Spain with the Marseilles cards, at least by the turn of the twentieth century, were the ones presented in Joseph Maxwell's posthumous book called The Tarot. | | | The Dali Tarot, along with the aforementioned Balbi Tarot, show more alphanumeric relation to Joseph Maxwell's correspondences than to any other version. |

| | The commentary may not refer to cards being used for divination, but rather to the use of amulets, incantations, etc., i.e., magical practice “heeding” the advice of diviners, soothsayers, or enchanters, or even consulting them. | | | (H 13.) Double-headed cards apparently originated in the later part of the eighteenth century, and double-headed Tarot decks were known by 1780. | | | The emblematic tradition, along with the hieroglyphic tradition, were expressions of the kind of symbolism which many modern Tarotists see in the trumps, and the possibility of a connection with the trumps is something that various Tarot authors have mentioned. |

| | "Violence, ravage and fatality" are the meanings Waite gives to this card, and it is clear that this was a direct interpretation of the Devil from the Christian religious tradition. | | | Hugh Moran in The Alphabet and Ancient Calendar Signs adds that the derivation could be the word 'samakh' meaning "to lay a hand" (On the head of the victim of the sacrifice). | | | Wild places were sacred to Pan, but wild orgastic merrymaking pleased him even more. |

| | Meaning of the Devil Tarot Card |
| | This card explores some very frightening things, things we are taught to view as evil or shameful. | | | There is a convincing argument that this is the most powerful and dangerous card in the deck. | | | These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. |

| | It could also be because you are too focused on the material world and not the spiritual. | | | The inverted pentagram that crowns the demon indicates that man's place in the universe has been reversed and he is vulnerable to evil. | | | Remember that like the people depicted in the card, you have the power to release yourself from this bondage: rather than thinking about your problems, try thinking about God. |

| | When displayed in one’s home or sacred space, the Devil Tarot Card will invoke a burning desire to focus on a spiritual life raising us above an animal existence. | | | This card will remind us to see the inner truth, which underlines the material world and never to allow ourselves to fall completely into a mere mundane existence, but to seek the Light inherent in all of us. | | | In traditional Rosicrucian symbolism, the Devil Tarot Card represents aspects of Capricorn, the sign of cardinal Earth. |

| | I agree that it can also refer to great sex, or that original sexual passion when two people fall in love. | | | From what I know (but if a greek scholar is around and I'm wrong, please let me know), the word Devil comes for the Greek "diabolos" which means "he who dis-unites" (or something like that!). | | | The Devil can mean we have a very strong personality, that we can influence people easily, that we yield power. |

| | No, this card has *nothing* at all to do with Satan, devil worship, or evil. | | | But the card does *not* refer to evil, nor is this card (or any other Tarot card) evil. | | | The card's name does seem appropriate though, when we consider the idea of temptation and where it comes from. |
