Hola, Hallo, Bonjour,

If you know me and have been visiting for a while now you will know that NAS has always been about sharing the site with as many people as possible. To move further forward and do this properly will involve offering the entire site in languages other than English.

As such, I am looking for some spiritual souls that are able to check my translations. I will do all the initial translation work myself, however it is very important to me that the message remains as close as possible to the initial text.

For example I am not sure how closely aligned these translations actually are:
Le tarot seul de carte est utilisé pour fournir une lecture concise, gardant le foyer concis et au point. Ce type de lire peut être serviable en exigeant une réponse plus définie, c'est comme regarde une lecture sous un loupe !

Die einzelne Kartentarockkarte wird benutzt, eine präzise Vorlesung zu versorgen, die den Fokus knapp und zum Punkt behält. Diese Art Lesen kann hilfreich beim Erfordern eine definiertere Antwort, es ist sein, wie eine Vorlesung unter einem Vergrößerungsglas anschauend!

El solo tarot de la tarjeta es utilizado para proporcionar una lectura concisa, manteniendo el foco sucinto y al grano. ¡Este tipo de leer puede ser útil al requerir una respuesta más definida, está como mirar una lectura bajo un lupa!

So if you can read any of the above, please translate it exactly as it is (fixing and pointing out the grammatical mistakes) and send it back to me letting me know you might be interested and I'll send you back an email with all the details. Or if you speak a different language and you feel it should be included please also write to me. 

Please do not post a reply here, as I will need your email address. Also I am about to take a week away for myself at a holistic retreat, so there will be a delay in my replies (my apologies for that delay).

PS. I don't mind how old you are, (as long as you follow your country's rules and regulations) if you work (full time, part time or no time) or where you live, I will pay by word count and will be using PayPal only.

Bright Blessings

Just a little secret between you and me... we will be launching a whole new community centre area very shortly. This will be an open forum, community group, blog, idea exchange growing place, controlled entirely by you :)

For the many, many, many people who wrote in about Amanda... I have written to her to also and hope she can join in, in this new community.

New iphone Angels application has just gone live on itunes!

I do apologise to the many ppl who have had trouble logging in, we have updated the software this week and and (hopefully) the login issue is working perfectly!

If you do not see a "Save Me" after a reading (once logged in) then it simply means that reading is currently not saveable. We are working on a few new additions for the sites, if there is a reading you really would love to be able to save please add it here as a comment and if we get enough of the one, then... well we'll move it's priority rating in the queue :)

Over 20 thousand visitors a day now. wow! I found an article I had written 2 years ago where I spoke about how exciting it was to have 5 thousand come visit for a day! 20 thousand visitors a day is truly wonderful. I am very grateful to be able to share all of these tools with so many. And to think it all started with that one pack of cartomancy cards from my grandfather.

Those who have been visiting since 1999 will be familiar with the story...

Many years ago, when I was about 17 my grandfather gave me a packet of very old cards. They were in a softly padded box, unlike anything I had ever seen before. He gave me the cards and said, when he was younger an old gypsy woman had given him the cards. She had said, "keep these safe and one day you will pass them on to someone who will share them with more people than you could ever imagine". I remember him telling me that story with such clarity. I also remember thinking, well I guess I must know at least 50 kids at school, 'cause 50 is a lot of people, that's what the old gypsy must have meant!...  Well another 17+ years have come around. And I am sure that my grandfather could not have ever imagined me sharing these cards with the thousands and thousands of people who have visited NewAgeStore over the last 10 years.

November will herald the announcement of two new decks of cards. The first will be Symbolon readings, and again I am incredibly appreciative of AGM Muller in allowing me the opportunity to share these cards and readings. The second set of cards is my own lil personal project - which came about as the result of a dream, I will share more on those cards next month!

Thank you for 10 wonderful years and now we have another 10 to look forward to, full of sweet surprises, enchanted moments and spellbinding journey's.

I thought this would be the perfect time to look back at some of our earlier incarnations!

1999! Initially we ran under our Australian domain name of lore.com.au. It's great to look back at this, actually it makes me smile as I cannot tell you how many hours we put into getting menu's to work - that was a big thing back in 1999!

 

2000.  I have very fond memories of this design and layout. We essentially were one of the first ecommerce sites in Australia. Of course the American market was leaps and bounds ahead, and the majority of our sales came from overseas. However Australians were starting to make purchases online. Developing all of our back end shopping cart system was lots and lots of fun! :D



2003 - Packing Checkoslovakian Crystal beads into little packets until 2 am in the morning, meant I needed a little break! NewAgeStore (NAS) briefly went to live with a good friend of mine Andrea Putting. NAS was never about 'making money' it was always about sharing, firstly and foremost. Andrea was not in a position to be able to offer me money for the site, so I gave her the site, lock stock and barrel! Andrea in turn agreed to pay me a small commission for each sale she made. After a little while with Andrea the Universe decided NAS was to come back to me, and Andrea graciously returned the site.




2005! NAS is returned, but what to do?... I did not want to be packing beads again, hmmmm.... I know how about I just make it all free readings and see how that goes :)



2007, I loved the menu's and I loved blue, so I tweaked the design just a little bit.




Well, 2009 and free readings went very well! Here is of course our current incarnation. This is the first design that I allowed to be created by someone other than me! I scoured the web searching for just the right design company... guess where I was led... www.blissmedia.com.au Perfect Bliss. The Universe is a great guide, when you stop to listen.
