'''[[The Demon-Possessed Tarot]]''' is a deck of [[Tarot]] cards created by [[occultist]] [[Travis McHenry]]. The deck uses the 72 [[Goetic demon]]s and six additional [[hierarchy of Hell|Grand Princes of Hell]], matching these 78 spirits with 78 [[Tarot]] cards. The correspondence of the deck combines the ability of each demon with the traditional meaning of each Tarot card, forming a syncretic bond between card and demon.
An individual '''[[Lilith]]''', along with Bagdana "king of the lilits", is one of the demons to feature prominently in protective spells in the eighty surviving Jewish [[occult]] incantation bowls from Sassanid Empire Babylon (4th–6th century AD) with influence from Iranian culture. These bowls were buried upside down below the structure of the house or on the land of the house, in order to trap the [[demon]]. Almost every house was found to have such protective bowls against demons.


Each card contains the summoning [[sigil]] of the [[demon]], its seal, and other pertinent symbols or invocations that may be required to summon or protect against the demon while working with them (as instructed by the ''[[Lesser Key of Solomon]]'' and other [[grimoire]]s). The meaning of each card is printed on the card, so even a beginner would be able to work with the deck.

An individual Lilith, along with Bagdana "king of the lilits", is one of the demons to feature prominently in protective spells in the eighty surviving Jewish occult incantation bowls from Sassanid Empire Babylon (4th–6th century AD) with influence from Iranian culture. These bowls were buried upside down below the structure of the house or on the land of the house, in order to trap the demon. Almost every house was found to have such protective bowls against demons.
