Being a visual tool, I find the best way to appreciate and connect with a tarot deck is by looking at the cards. If something jumps out at you and says ‘pick me’, it’s likely you will have a connection deck. Sometimes images from a deck might ‘grow’ on you … and despite a perhaps ‘lukewarm’ feeling to start with, something keeps pulling you back – to the point of eventually saying ‘pick me’ :) On this website (and blog) I want the visual experience to be as close as possible to holding cards from my different decks in your hand …
Here are some of the new preview images of the tarot cards – placed on a background showing the ‘card back’. 78 vibrant and colourful cards waiting to take you on a journey through Tarot symbolism and artistic inspiration, while exploring the story of your life.

Moving House in the Server sphere
Today, Nine Lives Tarot migrated to a new hosting server … a change of ownership in the hosting department meant that websites were loaded on to the virtual ferry and shipped to a new home. I didn’t need to ‘do’ anything, though I still held my breath as all the files moved across. … Luckily, it all went smoothly, and after a few hours ‘down time’ it’s nice to be back online again :)
Main blog page now has ‘Post previews’
In the past, the main page displayed the full content of the latest posts, this worked well for the newest post – as it was right there at the top of the page, but meant you needed to scroll to access previous posts … To try something different, and to hopefully make it easier to navigate the growing number of posts – I have changed things around on the main blog page: It now displays a short introduction – with a link to continue reading. To keep reading any article, you can click on the title, the link, or the preview image :)
Thank you for visiting and take care

I am so glad that the ferry arrived safely at its destination; it would have been a tragedy if it had sunk en route, or if it had been swept up on to a deserted island completely off the beaten track. It is always fun to try new things, and I am sure that this new way of looking at posts will work very well indeed. All the best with both your decks.
Travelling blind can be daunting or exciting depending on the circumstances :) Luckily this time, we were headed for a nice place.
