I think you're right. Crowley did correspondence for the chakras and the Tree of Life, but he used the Indian system. (Of which I don't know much about at all.) I think this information is in one of the Crowley's Equinox publications. That seems to be what Regardie did as well.
Anyway I just thought it was an interesting drawing. There's definitely a mixing of systems here.
