'''[[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.
'''[[Satan]]''', also known as [[The Devil]] is an entity in the [[Abrahamic religion]]s that seduces humans into sin or falsehood. In [[Judaism]], Satan is seen as an agent subservient to [[Yahweh|God]], typically regarded as a metaphor for the'' yetzer hara'', or "evil inclination." In [[Christianity]] and [[Islam]], he is usually seen as a [[fallen angel]] that has rebelled against God, who nevertheless allows him temporary power over the fallen world and a host of [[demon]]s.


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.
