The Devil
Upright:
Desire’s erosion, indulgence in temptation
Pursuit of pleasure, excessive enjoyment
Reversed:
Setting aside obsession, letting go of dependence
Resisting temptation, rejecting control
Strange Plant – Warning: Do Not Eat
Some plants contain toxins that are not deadly poisons but hallucinogens, inducing visions and dreamlike states of euphoria.
Strange Plant – Devil’s Alocasia
This alocasia is known for its distinctive secretion resembling fresh blood. Its leaves exude a red liquid whose vapor induces intense hunger, causing nearby creatures to gorge themselves uncontrollably. It is believed that the plant uses this strategy to eliminate competing vegetation and secure resources for itself.
Strange Plant – Devil’s Eye
Bearing mysterious blue fruits and thorny, twisted branches that resemble demonic tentacles, this plant exudes danger. Its sharp spines appear to ward off intruders. The crown’s blossoms, if consumed, create powerful dependency. Repeated consumption makes it nearly impossible to break free from its addictive hold.
Strange Plant – Blue-Vein Demon Fern
Hard to distinguish among other ferns, its signature trait is the droplet-shaped blue veins that mark its fronds. Resilient and fast-spreading, it thrives in many environments. When dried and ground into powder, it is said to reveal glimpses of tiny spirits in the spiritual realm—though such tales remain folklore. Consumption is not recommended.
Strange Plant – Ghost-Patterned Philodendron
Its delicate yet resilient vines bear leaves marked with three holes—two small, one large—resembling ghostly faces. These vines weave through rocks, forming eerie green veils. Under moonlight, the leaves shimmer with white variegations that intertwine with the ghostly patterns, creating a mesmerizing and unsettling spectacle.
