Yeah, I'd guess that the meanings are pulled from an early cartomancer like Etteila or Levi. I'm not versed at all in their systems, but I believe that especially in regards to the pips, the meanings in the book are probably derived from Etteila, as his meanings I believe read along the lines of a fortune teller, or predictive style. These pre-Golden Dawn meanings look very different to the RWS meanings to my eye, but in many cases serve the same function.
