The Rude Tarot is a Harry Potter fanart tarot deck created by the smut_wednesday community on Livejournal. In keeping with the community's theme, most of the art is sexually explicit and much is humorous or cracky.

The completed project includes 24 cards by thirteen artists. It covers the Major Arcana plus two Minor Arcana cards.

Introducing the first Rude Tarot cards, community mod fools_trifle wrote:

With the participation of a good number of fandom artists, I hereby proudly present the first installment of The Rude Tarot! All cards are based on The Tarot, mostly the Major Arcana. The borders were designed and added by the lovely vikingcarrot - thank you! We boast no scholarly presumptions - this has been done purely for fun :D Many silly ideas have been shared in our Rude Tarot chat on the 18th, and here are the first seven results - have fun![1]
