Yes, the deck is full of white, skinny, "beautiful" patrons and could use some diversity but I like to think of the patrons as from another world and somehow this works for me! I think this may be partly because this deck lets my jump into a "reality" that I usually try to steer clear of in my own life. The pressure to conform, wear makeup, be skinny, to present and pretend... the list goes on.
In my head I like to think of them meeting up with the patrons from my Gaian tarot deck and I just have so much fun.. because both of these decks represent their own niche of people from different "bubble" worlds and it is okay to visit and play..
I've chosen to see the people in this deck as otherworldly too which is working out well. Decided to view them variously as fey, archetypal or occasionally ironic
Am glad to have found a way to experience this deck that works for me, as I really do like it and the lady I've spoken to at inner hue is beyond lovely.
