I wouldn’t say it’s indicicative of the LHP, but it is something to consider. I’m currently readying a book on Qabalah right now, and this version is from an older printing and the cover is black and red, The Sword and the Serpent. It has a black and red gradient background to a sword with a rainbow serpent entwining it. The book is certainly not LHP though. I also bought “A Garden of Pomegranates” by Israel Regardie, and it’s th second printing and he wrote a preface for the new printing. Regardie highly revered Crowley and disdains some of the associations of the traditional Qabalah, and he is unfriendly to the Judaeo-Christian perspective. He calls it codensending and takes the Book of the Law to be high grade material. Anyway, that brings up a red flag for me. Therefore I am more discerning while reading books that give me a red flag. BUT to be fair, that was only the preface to a book he wrote when he was younger which serves as a textbook.
So to put it shortly, be discerning and figure out if it’s actually LHP philosophy and symbolism. Red and black may mean nothing here, or it could mean something. You gotta figure that out for yourself ultimately.
I just read something the other day that said something about the three colors of red, black, and white together. It’s slipping my mind but I shall try and find it and repost it here.
