Why Tarot Cards?

I feel like it has become increasingly apparent that the invitation of the Nine names are based on Tarot cards. Why is this? Well, there’s a couple of guesses we can make, though we do not have a base idea of why they could possibly be used. 1- After a quick Wiki search, these names are based on the Major Arcana set of cards. There is a minor set, though it is less popular. It could be that these names describe the Nine’s personality, or their personal story and mindset. We cannot know for sure right now. 2- The Major Arcana set seems to relate back to Ancient Egypt. And yes, I am well aware of the amount of Jojo references we could make. Anyways, it could be the Nine depict themselves as Gods from Ancient Egypt, or how they act compared to the others. There is a chance that, since we have not seen these gods (obviously), they consider those gods formless, like them, and closely relate to them. So far, we currently have these titles to work with: The Magician, The World, Justice, The High Priestess, The Twins, and Strength. Besides Za Wourldo, they all seem to relate (so far) to descriptors for people. I believe we are getting 9 total invitations, so perhaps these invitations are directly from each individual Nine. Thoughts?
