Lenormand

Hello All! So as I continue my more folklore/traditional type of Lenormand reading studies I am looking at “additional” reading techniques. Let us say Mirroring and Knighting though we can easily add Counting to this as well. Besides giving you additional information do they give you a type or specific kind of information? What drives this question is I am remembering reading, can’t say where I read this, the Knighting shows you information that is right around the corner, not in plain sight. So first off am I dreaming I read this? Second, I don’t always use additional techniques as I don’t always need additional information but that could change if they del…

I've been thinking of expanding my own personal Lenormand deck a little to include a few non-traditional cards. My main reason for this is that I think there are a few aspects of modern life that aren't well-represented because of changes in modern society, and a few cards that are overburdened with meanings that don't feel appropriate to the symbols they contain. My main bugbear is that there isn't really anything that represents technology or invention, which is a large factor in modern life. Can anyone else think of any concepts they feel are not adequately represented in Lenormand, or cards that have too many meanings that might be better split…

..My first Lenormand deck ..It did not come with the divinatory meanings or any card spreads. 😕 ..or an Introduction. I've watched numerous You Tube un wrapping videos but still can not get the cards and their meanings down. I guess I am newer than I thought to tarot because I didn't know decks could have a number card, a tarot card, a Glyph and a color all on one card to explain it's representation.

Hi , I recently bought the old Arabian Lenormand. It contains extra cards. One of them is a zero with a picture of spices. What does this mean? I thought there was only 36 cards.

Just wanted to share a Lenormand related story with you all. I am thinning out my Tarot collection so I asked my Lenormand deck where I should photograph these decks before I put them up on eBay. These are the cards I pulled: Whip + Cross + Fox I really had a hard time interpreting this one, initially. I took a step back from racking my brain and went down to make a cup of coffee. While in the kitchen, I thought maybe I should take them in the kitchen after thinking about the Whip and the Cross. Wasn't sold on it. So I walked into my dining room, crashed into the dog, and spilled coffee on my shirt. When I looked up to the sky to choke down my rage…

Hi all, I've been looking for new ways to integrate Lenormand into my daily routine. Daily readings have become a bit lackluster as I work from home and will likely have the exact same day over and over again until April or May when the warm weather comes. However, I have been binge-watching a few shows at night (The Bear and Ted Lasso) and I actually bring my cards with me to the couch. I do a reading in between episodes to see what's coming up in the next episode and have had great success. Just wanted to pass the idea along to anyone trying to learn Lenormand or exercise their cards.

Hi! I have been doing research on Lenormand decks for several days - I just now hear about them. I really love the Gilded Reverie Expanded Deck by Marchetti. I have read a little of this forum but not much about this deck. I am buying Andy Boroveshengra's book because it was recommended for beginners. Is anyone familiar with the Gilded Reverie deck and can tell me if I can learn using it? I am not a brand new oracle card user and the one deck I use the most is read like Lenormand spreads. I would love suggestions if this deck is not right for me. I fell in love with the look of this deck and it feels like it should be mine, if that makes sense. But I do not want to make a…

I managed to find Andy Boroveshengra's book today and consequently thought I'd work through his Grand Tableau. The first three cards are denoted as being a message for the querent. I thought these cards were interesting, as I am currently packing up boxes to move to another state. Hence it being quite miraculous to find Andy's book, as just about all others have been packed ready for the move. I'm reading these three cards as saying there will be definite problems with the move. Not what I really wanted to hear but the key at the end seems to indicate "yes" to what is to the left - a problematic move. I have been worried about the logistics of the move, as it …

Okay, so I've been reading Grand Tableaus for a few years now and am still learning some new things. I love the G.T.s, and have offered them to many family members, friends and a few other people as well with surprisingly good results and amazingly (sometimes) very accurate predictions! YEA! But the one thing that always stumps me is when doing the G.T. and the man card falls in the house of the Lady card or vice-versa. Then many months ago, I read somewhere - (online? in my many Lenny books?) that the man card landing in the house of the lady, points to a couple. And, viola! I thought, "THATS GREAT!!!" and even had this happen for a reading for someone…

While I don't have a HUGE collection of Lenormands, and that's what I read most with, Lenormands, I love the ones I have. ALL of them for different reasons. I have no desire to ever part from them. But some are harder to replace than others. I wouldn't part with my Le Petit Lenormand Noir by Chronata aka Robyn Tisch Hollister for anything. I don't even know if there was ever even a second ed. Anyone else know?? One of Seven Stars limited ed Samhain Lenormands (can't remember which ed, I think she did three consecutive years?). These two I think would be harder to replace, but I love all my Lenormands. All…

I like to pull out a few Lenormands around Halloween. Seven Stars is one of them. Anyone recall how many incarnations there are of that one? And FYI, I went on her site, Tarot by Seven, and she has the 2017 and 2015 versions. I have had at least three versions of it, but now just have one. It's the one with just the skulls and raven on the right bottom and some bottles on the right and it's numbered. Was trying to remember if that's from 2014? Anyone have that and remember the year? Anyway, anyone else have any of them? Do you have other Lenormands you'll pull out? I am very fond of Chronata's Petit Lenormand Noir. Great vibe for Hallowe…

As I thought to myself geez that a green deck I thought at first was just a Marseilles in small lenormand deck style. But as I went through the pictures it came clear it was lenormand done in a Marseille style. Like how the lenormand was done in waite style years ago Upon googling the title, this isn't the first time it was done, But imo this is a way better version I actually like thi…

Hi all, I'm hoping for some clarification on hypotheticals. Does Lenormand play well with these types of questions or is that best left to something like Tarot or a different oracle system? For example, the type of question that often comes up when I read for others is "How would X feel if..." "How would X feel if I made this statement" "How would X feel if we met in person" ...etc Is there a better way to phrase questions like this or just better to avoid them all together?

Hello! I have been having A LOT of fun finally feeling more comfortable with the Lenormand lately, but I am wondering about the current trajectory of the Lenormand's gender assignments in context of its history. I am also interested in how folks who are really into the practice of reading Lenormand feel about the whole thing. I am a longtime queer. (Lol, I don't describe myself often and am not fond of labels.) Right now, I am dating a woman. Yay! I get to use my F/F Rana George Lenormand significator cards. I will say that decks where the F/F partner is meant to be represented as the Snake do make me just a little uncomfortable, but I try no…

Spoiler https://www.llewellyn.com/product.php?ean=9780738776002 I saw this on amazon canada, it gives date August 8. So I figure go to source, I do like the artwork. It says 48 cards . One can always take out the extra cards.

Hey all! I was wondering if you find any significance when the cards fall in line, like the numbers follow each other one line that comes from 1 to 5 or 15 - 19 etc. In Tarot it is significant for me because every suit has its story and when the cards come in line then is like the story follows as it goes etc But Lenormand seem to be more random. Does anyone sees it a bit differently?

Hi I'm trying to find a lenormand i think or lenormand like deck which back of the cards are black and white with the symbols of the zodiac signs if anyone knows the name of the deck i would really appreciate it since I can't find it anywhere thank you 🥰

I asked his permission to share this. As you can see it is really up to you if you incorporate them or not.

To assist those that might be caught between choosing books and what have you. There is not alot of reviews out there about these Encyclopaedias, but found this one just now when googling to see if any. " March 27, 2021 Using Lenormand to investigate Personality, Timing and Health There are three volumes in Björn Meuris’ “Petit Lenormand Encyclopedia” series. Information is a little sparse (I had to order the third volume without a clue as to what was in it) so I’ll write a review of each of the three volumes so you can more easily understand what’s what. But first an overview of the whole series:Volume 1: A overvi…

While looking for amazon us site I saw this deck scheduled to come out on Sept 27. It isn't on amazon ca why I didn't see it until i looked on the us site. https://a.co/d/ikp3qhg It's from an unknown to me publisher name Red feather. "REDFeather MBS, the Mind, Body, Spirit imprint of Schiffer Publishing, delivers a new Lenormand by Yasmeen Westwood and Kalliope Haratsidis." I like the fantasy of the rider The playing cards are there The coffin looks standard. The mice maybe too happy..

It's pretty basic - but sometimes that's what's needed. And yes, the english version is available: https://www.spirisfeed.com/downloads/ Before Andy's book, a lot of us made do with this and little else. It's a great foundation.

Hey everyone, I’m new to the group. I have my great grandmothers 1901 Brepols Lenormand cards. I am learning to read them. Can anyone give me any tips and any history on the cards? I would love to gather as much information on them. I can feel a presence when they are near. I couldn’t figure out how to attach a photo.

I wish I had bookmarked it, but does anymore remember seeing a sweet retro style Lenormand deck on this forum? All I remember is a picture of a little girl posting a letter. Sort of like this, but I don't think you could see the little girl's face. I'd love to know the name of the deck.

I need an opinion, or several. I have the legendary Lenormand book by Andy B. I am now looking at The Art of Lenormand Reading: Decoding Powerful Messages by Alexandre Musruck as a suppliment. I like to look at 2 sources when learning something. Does anyone know this book and/or have an opinion on it/ I am as beginner as they come, not even familiar with Tarot. I own Grand Tableau that says Lo Scarabeo? It is italian I think. It looks like the Blue Owl cards. I also have the Gilded Reverie, which I know, from being here, that it gets mixed reviews.

To All My Fellow Lenormand Enthusiast’s, May this Holiday Season be a wonderful time for you and yours and let the New Year bring us much good health, prosperity and of course good Lenormand information to share and learn. You all help me so much to learn and I am ever so grateful, keep on challenging me to learn more!
