Do you have a deck that makes its own paradigm a large presence in the cards? One where it seems impossible to separate out the maker/designer/artist's viewpoint and worldview from the cards themselves?
The Motherpeace might be thought of as one; The Wheel of Change might be another (and I know how strong some of y'all react to that deck!). These are decks where the creator isn't content just to leave you to your own experience, but feels that a certain view on things is important to using or comprehending the deck. What decks exemplify this for you? I'm especially interested in more recent decks that do this.
And incidentally, do you like this sort of thing? In some cases? Do you get irritated and just want to be left to read the Tarot? I'm curious to hear your thoughts...
