In addition to being a card game, the central allegory of the Tarot trump cycle is a Stoic-Christian tragedy.
Contempt for this life and endless meditation on death (along with judgement and reward) were at the heart of the many macabre genres that became pervasive in liturgy, sermons, art, literature, and drama during the 14th century and remained prominent for 400 years. These can all be taken as meditations on John 12:25.

Catholics have been conditioned to avoid Tarot because of its New Age and occult connotations. That’s a mistake: Tarot is part of our heritage. It reflects Catholic culture, symbolism, history, and theology. Its images are useful not just for play, but for contemplation, as Catholic mystic Valentin Tomberg explores in Meditations on the Tarot.
The images on Tarot cards can tell us nothing of the future, but a great deal about the past. Their content emerges from a mixture of Greek philosophy and Catholic theology, popular piety, culture, and the arts.
There is a wealth of Catholic material culture, from cathedrals that were prayers in stone to music that lifted the soul to heaven. Folk culture also aspired to this kind of connection, and thus the stories, songs, games, plays, and art of the common man often merged the sacred and the profane. It uplifted the common, and provided a way to express faith in everyday life.

They talk about how much of what is seen as "esoteric" today is a revival of the ancient Christian view of the cosmos, that became submerged after the Enlightenment and the Scientific Revolution. Groups like the Rosicrucians were not trying to reject science, but to marry it to a more ancient spiritual view of reality. They were not just about looking back on the past but interested in building an alternative modernity.

> the ancient Christian view of the cosmos
The gospel doesn't say anything about cosmos at all. The Torah scroll that the Christians stole and called the Old Testament says that there is a firmament and it considers the earth to be flat, and in general there are no other planets, and there are no other inhabited worlds. What is the ancient Christian view of the cosmos? Cosmos is a non-Christian concept, we pagans have ideas about it, but the Jews were so primitive that they didn't know anything about cosmos.

I don't think they mean "cosmos" in the modern materialistic sense. They're talking about ideas that are adjacent to what Michael Heiser writes about in books such as The Unseen Realm.
