There’s another Arks of Omen tarot card reading. Will this one shed some light on the mystery? Who is The Knight?

It seems like the Arks of Omen have taken a turn for the positive. Or at least hopeful. Maybe. This is the grimdark afterall and hope isn’t something that sticks around. In any case, check this new Arks of Omen tarot card out for yourself.

Okay…so now we have The Knight. The image is pretty clear here, too. There’s not a whole lot to postulate with this one. We’ve got a knight who’s facing off against a beast. This being 40k related that probably means the beast in the image is a daemon and the knight is probably a Space Marine. In either case this also seems like it’s a new stanza of this whole prophecy. Then again, it could fit right into the previous card’s reading

XVIII – The Star

That’s the thing about these sorts of readings though. They all make sense after everything has been revealed. What could it mean? Well, the theory is that this could be the return of the Lion. Or it could be a “new” Loyalist Primarch come to help Guilliman. There’s also the possibility that it’s the return or Primaris’d version of someone else. There’s lots of things it could be a reference to. We’re just going to have to wait and see how this one pans out.

 

Who do you think The Knight is in this card?
