I’ve changed things around quite a bit. There are five suits – hearts, swords, clouds, stars, and stones – and the Major Arcana is completely redone. I chose images that were of more personal value to me. There are 17 Major cards, plus a “zero” and ten in each suit for a total of 68.

I’m thinking of designing a deck that is personal to me; in other words, it may not have the typical composition of the average tarot deck.
I like the idea of decks of cards as an informational tool. They are like flags in that they have meanings beyond their simple images; they are also like books in which the pages can be rearranged. I think it would be an interesting exercise to create a set of cards which I can use for divinatory or, more likely, contemplative purposes. Something with symbolism that is personal to me, or perhaps resonates more strongly with me.
Of course, knowing me, I’d then use such a deck to play whist.
