The death of legendary comedian Joan Rivers in 2014 was sudden, shocking, and—depending on who you ask—a little too convenient. She was bold, unfiltered, and famously unapologetic. She didn’t just ruffle feathers—she torched them. And shortly before her passing, she publicly called out President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama in a bold street interview that had conspiracy theorists foaming at the mouth.
So, I had to ask the tarot.
Did the Obamas have anything to do with Joan Rivers' death?
The cards I pulled were:
-
Judgement
-
Six of Pentacles
-
The Fool
And let me tell you—these cards spoke LOUD. If you’ve been wondering whether Joan’s passing was just a botched routine surgery or something more sinister, buckle up. The energy here is deeper than most people are ready for.
A Quick Refresher: What Happened to Joan Rivers?
Joan Rivers went in for a routine endoscopy at Yorkville Endoscopy in Manhattan on August 28, 2014, after reportedly experiencing vocal issues. She never woke up. She went into cardiac arrest, was placed in a medically induced coma, and died on September 4, 2014 at 81 years old.
But the mystery? The circumstances surrounding her procedure were shady. A doctor who wasn't authorized performed an unauthorized biopsy. The clinic was later found to have committed multiple violations, and a malpractice lawsuit from her daughter, Melissa Rivers, ended in a multi-million dollar settlement.
But some people believe there’s more to the story—especially considering a bold comment Joan made just weeks before her death.
The Trigger Moment: Joan’s “Obama Is Gay” Comment
In July 2014, just two months before her death, Joan was asked by a reporter when she thought the U.S. would see a gay president. She responded quickly and bluntly:
"We already have it with Obama, so let’s just calm down. You know Michelle is a trans... a transgender. We all know."
No hesitation. No filter. Just Joan being Joan—or was it something more?
Her statement set the internet on fire. And then, out of nowhere—she’s gone.
Was it a coincidence?
Let’s see what Spirit has to say...
The Tarot Speaks: Judgement, Six of Pentacles, The Fool
Let’s break this down card by card, because each one delivers layers of spiritual and political tea.
Judgement – Truth Will Always Rise
The Judgement card is never quiet. When it shows up, it’s telling you something is being revealed. Secrets. Karma. Public reckoning. And in the context of Joan Rivers’ death—this card tells me her passing was not just random. It suggests a reawakening of consequences, an unveiling of truths that were buried.
Judgement also represents spiritual retribution. If Joan was calling out high-profile secrets—secrets some powerful people didn’t want aired out—this card suggests her words echoed into places they shouldn’t have.
Could this be confirmation that Joan’s comments about the Obamas weren’t just “crazy talk,” but truth cloaked in comedy? Judgement says: YES, and her passing stirred something in the spiritual realm that still hasn't been laid to rest.
And here’s the kicker: Judgement comes after death. It’s not death itself, but what comes after. It’s Spirit screaming: “This isn’t over.”
Six of Pentacles – Silent Payments and Unbalanced Power
The Six of Pentacles is usually about generosity, giving and receiving, or power dynamics. But in this context? This card is a red flag.
It’s showing an imbalance—someone has the power (money, access, control), and someone else is at their mercy. In conspiracy terms, this points to payoffs, hush money, or secret transactions. Think “doctors getting favors,” deals being made under the table, or certain procedures being allowed (or sabotaged) with the right push from the right person.
It asks: Was there an exchange of influence that made Joan’s death a convenient outcome? Who had something to lose—or to gain—by silencing her?
This card is NOT about medical error. It’s about someone making sure a service was rendered, a result was achieved, and the check was signed quietly.
And in tarot, the Six of Pentacles often shows a figure above two others—giving coins to one while ignoring the other. That’s the imagery of selective justice. Someone was left out in the cold while others were protected. Sound familiar?
The Fool – Blind Trust and the Ultimate Setup?
Now this card might fool people (pun intended), but when The Fool shows up in a case like this, it hits different.
The Fool is a new beginning, a leap of faith, but also naivety. And in a conspiracy context, this could mean Joan walked into something she thought was routine—but it wasn’t. It can represent someone who trusted the wrong people, went into the lion’s den smiling, and never saw the knife coming.
Was Joan set up under the guise of a simple procedure?
Did someone manipulate her trust in the medical system, knowing full well what the outcome would be?
The Fool paired with Judgement and the Six of Pentacles reads like a trap: Trust, silence, consequence. Someone jumped freely—and someone else knew exactly where they’d land.
Let’s Talk Logic—And Then Go Deeper
Now, skeptics will say: “Come on, Joan was 81. People die during surgery.”
Yes, that’s true.
But the energy around this isn’t about her age or a random stroke of bad luck. The cards don’t suggest accident. They suggest timing, influence, and quiet orchestration.
You don’t just make an off-the-cuff joke about a sitting President’s sexuality and the First Lady’s gender identity on camera—then suddenly end up dead in a botched procedure weeks later—without some eyebrows going up.
And let’s not forget:
-
The clinic had multiple violations.
-
A doctor performed a procedure they weren’t cleared for.
-
There were no crash carts ready, and no oxygen.
-
Joan’s daughter won a massive lawsuit, which means something wasn’t right.
And all of that adds up to one thing: Somebody dropped the ball—or made sure it was dropped.
Final Tarot Verdict: Did the Obamas Have Anything to Do with It?
So... did the Obamas directly have a hand in Joan Rivers’ death?
Based on the cards pulled—Judgement, Six of Pentacles, The Fool—the answer isn’t black and white.
But here's what Spirit is saying:
-
Joan was speaking too freely. She exposed something too close to the truth.
-
Powerful forces were watching. Whether politically or socially aligned with the Obamas, there were likely parties who didn’t want Joan continuing to speak out.
-
Someone in her environment, be it medical or social, acted with hidden influence, possibly under pressure, a deal, or a silent order.
-
Her death was not an organic ending. It was orchestrated—or at least allowed—with intent.
-
The Obamas may not have personally made the call, but someone in their circle or orbit may have decided enough was enough.
Think plausible deniability. Think damage control.
The Fool card says Joan didn’t see it coming. The Six of Pentacles says power was exchanged behind the scenes. And Judgement says this secret will rise again.
Why It Still Matters Today
We live in a world where celebrities die mysteriously, where speaking out can cost you everything, and where truth is often buried under PR and payoffs. Joan Rivers was a comedian—but she was also a truth-teller. She had no filter and no fear.
And whether or not you believe the Obamas were directly involved, this tarot reading confirms: Her death was no accident.
Someone wanted her gone—or didn’t mind if she didn’t come back.
Honor Joan’s Voice: Don’t Let Her Be Forgotten
Joan Rivers wasn’t just a funny woman. She was a trailblazer, a mouthpiece for uncomfortable truths, and a legend who refused to play by Hollywood’s rules.
And now, almost a decade later, we’re still questioning how and why she really died.
The tarot says: Keep questioning.
Because the Judgement card doesn’t just bring karma—it brings receipts.
