A while back, William Wildblood linked to a Guardian article about psychics' predictions for 2021. I didn't click on the link until today.
The article is illustrated by John Holcroft with a "wicked pack of cards" -- a fake Tarot with imagery drawn from the Satanic Revolution:
But the synchronicity fairies have played Holcroft for a fool, slipping in a few symbols of their own without his noticing. Take another look at the backs of the cards.
Ah, the familiar rainbow flag, symbol of diversity and perversity, right? But, no, it's actually a white flag with a rainbow on it, which is not the same thing at all. That's right, the sync fairies have actually tricked this sap into dedicating the year 2021 to Joan of Arc! And look at the whole design of the card. The world as a blue sphere in the center, and on either side a human figure bearing a white flag. Joan's banner had Christ in the center, holding the world as a blue sphere, and on either side an angel bearing a white lily. The word flag, of course, can also refer to a lilioid flower.
And take another look at this "Climate" card.
You see a wind turbine next to the Sun; I see a fleur-de-lys next to the radiant hand of God. You see a solar panel that just happens to be divided into a 4-by-4 grid. I see the Jerusalem Cross.
Where are those black and white images from? Would it surprise you to learn that they are details from the frontispiece of a book by Mark Twain?
How far that little candle throws his beams! Maid of Heaven, pray for us!
