Difficulty: Easiest

It can be used for just about any question, including to draw a card of the day, week, or even one's card of ultimate destiny. It can also be used repetitively, as some readers prefer to pull one card at a time, watching as a story unfolds. There are even some readers who don't use tarot spreads at all, relying on this method alone.

XV – The Devil (Le Diable)

The Devil represents temptation, materialism, and the power of the shadow self. While it warns of unhealthy attachments, it also offers an opportunity to confront and integrate the darker aspects of human nature.

Symbolism: A horned figure dominates the scene, with two smaller chained figures below, symbolising bondage to desires or fears. The loose chains suggest that this bondage is self-imposed and can be escaped. The card's imagery reflects both the allure and consequences of indulgence.

In Relationships: Obsessive or co-dependent relationships. It may indicate intense passion or unhealthy dynamics.

In Work: Temptation to take shortcuts or pursue goals at the expense of ethics. A need to reassess priorities.

Spiritually: The Devil challenges you to confront your shadow self and transform fears into liberation.

When ill-dignified: Escapism, addiction, or manipulative behaviours. It warns of being trapped in destructive patterns.
