Atlantis Cards


I was reminded by the angels of atlantis thread that this deck was out there.
It's more focused on Atlantis itself and the concepts of Atlantis.

I liked it- until I saw the cards.
So far from what I've seen all the people in the cards are blonde and wearing purple attire... which makes me think of a cult :/

And while I like the healing concept of it, it paints Atlantis as a new-agey type paradise. To be honest I think there was more to the civilization than people holding hands and singing "Kumbaya"

Curious what other people think of it. My interest in Atlantis makes me wish that there's more to this deck.

There is a book that sort of goes with the deck. Helps understand the cards. Since it was supposed to be a long time ago, and just one race, I guess it is okay that they all look the same.

I think this is it, I would have to find my book, I'll look later.

Hello Tree Leaf

Personally I don't like this "love-and-light" concept shown in these cards.

Atlantis did not disappear because they were all loving and cuddly people.

Greetings
