      Which had nothing to do with Tarot. The creators of the tarot cards used ancient pictographs to invent their characters. That much is correct. Maurizio da Tortona, as I cited above, used pictographs from ancient sources to create the cards. The original images were not Tarot. They were stolen to create tarot.
      Yes that is what I mean.

      But that proves the tarot's origin comes from an ancient pictographs. The tarot is based is based on astrotheology aka a type of creation myth. All "sun gods" is represented by the magician card, this is what i'm trying to say and there's many esoteric tarot occultist who agree with this.. I can go days in explaining the deep biblical connection and just for one tarot card. If you haven't studied the basics of astrotheology/tarot then it'll be difficult.

      You've just confirmed her holding the scroll is "heavenly knowledge", which is the bible(old testament).

              Tarot also sounds a lot like the magic word the Forever People used to summon the Infinity Man.

                  Which means the earlier figures were not "tarot images". Thank you for your time.

                  But that proves the tarot's origin comes from an ancient pictographs.
                  Yup. About as much as Castle Greyskull's origin comes from Inverary in Scotland.

                  The tarot is based on astrotheology aka a type of creation myth.

                  Again, just because something is pictured in a cartoon or a playing card doesn't make them esoteric.

                    The origins of tarot stem from those images or even earlier, you just concluded. It's more than just "cartoon". The people who made the rider-waite deck were occultists. And occultism includes esoteric studies. Now you're just denying what the creators intentions were when they created the deck.

                    Arthur Edward Waite was a scholarly American mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric matters, and was the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. He was the first to attempt a systematic study of the history of Western occultism, viewed as a spiritual tradition rather than as aspects of proto-science or as the pathology of religion.

                    He was born in Brooklyn, New York, on 2 October 1857, but moved, at a young age after the death of his father, to his mother’s native England. Privately educated in North London and brought up as a Catholic, Waite was soon attracted him into psychical research after death of his sister, Frederika, in 1874, and as a young man he began to read regularly in the Library of the British Museum, studying many branches of Esotericism. He married Ada Lakeman (known as Lucasta) in 1883, and they had one daughter, Sybil.

                    Waite was a prolific author, in his trademark pedantic and verbose style, on subjects including divination, Esotericism, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, black and ceremonial magic, Kabbalism and alchemy, with many of his works being well received in academic circles. He wrote occult texts, and translated and reissued several important mystical and alchemical works, including notable works on the Holy Grail. His “Book of Ceremonial Magic” (1911), “The Holy Kabbalah” (1929), “A New Encyclopedia of Freemasonry” (1921), and his edited translation of Eliphas Levi's “Transcendental Magic, its Doctrine and Ritual” (1896) have remained popular texts.

                            That's cause you gots it backwards. Inveraray Castle's origins comes from Castle Greyskull. Now say it with me, "I have the power!" smiley tinfoil-hat.gif

                                JohnHermes, I have a serious question for you. What do you think of Joseph Smith? Do you believe his translation and interpretation of ancient Egyptian documents were accurate?
