I was reading Waite's Shadows of Life and Thought and came across a rather strange reference to "Jewish" tarot pack. He's talking about how any good thing can be distorted for evil purposes and makes this statement:
I don't take from this that Waite was anti-semitic necessarily, but was describing a pack that was referred to informally as a "Jewish" pack, but probably had another name which he unfortunately omits. Would anyone have any idea what pack he's talking about?
"Tarot cards offer another instance: there is a so-called Jewish pack which is like Medieval Satanism in its Symbols."
