jk rowlings banner image on twitter is from a tarot card deck that was designed by aleister crowley
just to be clear for anyone unfamiliar thats like, not the normal or a very popular tarot card deck, its specifically crowleys deck

it would be basically impossible for her to not know this. all three images from her banner are from the same deck and its not a secret or arcane lore that its his deck. this is what comes up if you google its name (“the thoth deck”)
what did crowley say about his design for the death card. oh, saturn symbolism. of course. well, thats interesting
hello everyone upset about this post.
yes, the thoth deck is not insanely esoteric but its also not the “normal” deck, thats all i was saying. if you just grabbed a deck randomly the odds are low you would just so happen to grab that one.

theres no metric for this but i also really doubt its the second most popular deck as many are claiming. its not even in the top 50 on amazon, (just interesting). i would suspect marseille is more popular.
whats interesting about occultists is that they can see the obvious connection between the i ching + the western zodiac + egyptian gods + renaissance era grimoires + pagan gods but pointing out that its interesting that this popular figure uses these images is “a reach” lmao
totally randomly just is using these images randomly right. dont reach too hard bro it doesnt mean anything
