There has been lots of talk about people wanting to practice lenormand here on LL. ( me included) I thought I would start a thread where we could discuss meanings of cards, when cards are paired and even practice readings then discuss thoughts on readings with each other in order to learn lenormand better. Anyone game ? IP: Logged |

Sounds good Who wants to start ? Ask a question we can pull a few cards and discuss Or if you did a reading for self and then we can start with discussion on cards pulled. Go for it ! IP: Logged |

The cross would seem to represent pain, or burden of some kind. However, the whip can sometimes refer to exercise not always argument it is repettative motion. Do you belong to a gym ? Maybe you exercise at gym, meet an older man who has pulled a muscle ? As that can be painful Just a thought. IP: Logged |

Interesting... no, no gym for me.. or any form of exercise ... I wonder though with the cross as burden since the question was 'how' ... hmmm Do you have a spread?

According to Rana George you always look to middle card in spread as the significator. So I would def. say an older man 50's and above as Lillie's is always above 50 Could be an argument over something spiritual or something that causes a burden. I would most likely pull a few extra's to give more detail. My question has been focused on my soul mates return. I pulled The ring - looping back / relationship The garden - meetings / community where I live ? The rider The extra's the stars ( ring ) The Lillie's ( garden ) meeting with older man he is above 50 I am pretty sure. the letter ( the rider) I was thinking possibly the 27th of month. As the letter appeared several times in other readings. Any other thoughts ? I looked up garden in my book can be reunions and celebrations with people . So that is a possibility IP: Logged |

My next partner won't be over 50... hahaha As for yours - do you believe your soul mate is an ex of yours? Ring + Stars a karmic relationship, one from above. If the garden represents meeting and gets clarified by lillies - if we look at lillies as a 'time card' (from Rana George's book) it can signify winter or a long time.. So perhaps meeting in winter? Rider + letter - you will meet him/ he will bring you a message Just my thoughts... IP: Logged |

I see what you are saying though I have pulled clouds several times for timing which would be June time frame. And confirmed by others that it would be summer time frame. I wonder if the 5 card pull would shed more light ? Do you want to try a 5 card pull on your next partner ? See if we get more information about what we already learned so far. IP: Logged |

Have you tried this method for timing? http://web.archive.org/web/20090619135057/http://36cards.wordpress.com/2008/11/16/lenormand-101-event-timing/ I've tried it and it didn't really work for me but maybe I did something wrong.... I'm off to bed now, I'll check this thread tomorrow though IP: Logged |

Well, to me it does seem to work in looking at the chart The letter is June. The sun is summer When I did a star method ( makiel) the other night asking for the day I got the letter crossing the sun. Cards can sometimes carry a double meaning. I did read this post but I think you just need find what works for you and stick with it then the cards will reflect that to you. According to Rana. I know from Rana George they can also describe a person. This was an audio interview she did. I think it is in her book as well. I don't have paperback it is on kindle. The stork would be tall and thin. The clover - green eyes, blue eyes as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uY1pw4Iboa8 IP: Logged |

So I did the X or star spread again Asking about the future I got the coffin crossed by the fox ( end of the deception ) The tree ( soulmate card also health) it would be a very healing relationship for me. The letter ( June or 27th also information ) The stars ( fate , destiny, karma ) The ship ( change, moving, going on a trip or even a ship or a plane. ) I think a car is more of the rider. Just to see I pulled the sun and the woman with the bouquet. I love the magic X method it works surprisingly well. Redshoes, do you have a spread to work on ?

Sorry i am half asleep today! Here goes...i asked what can i expect next in any romantic dealings ahead of me Dog anchor cross This feels like someone i have been friends with for a long time (maybe even past life related)...this could be an ex, who has been in my life for some time.. who is and will carry on bringing me pain and burdens *groan* IP: Logged |

I would agree given the three cards pulled. I wondered at first why you said friend from past but realized it was because dog was in past position. Or another thought is that it could be a loyal friend from the past who is dealing with some kind of burden that may turn to you for help but you may feel burdened by it in some way. The cross can be tricky as it can be pain, burdens, sorrows but it can also be spiritual it depends on the cards surrounding it. I still have a hard time with the cross. IP: Logged |

Yes vesta that totally makes sense...i still feel burdened by the thought of him and dont want that in my life any longer. My thoughts were that he will come back to me when he wants help..so your interp was very accurate. thanks! x IP: Logged |

I laid down 5 cards, not particular order but for a general question, but the last card representing the outcome I asked if one of my exes (who keeps coming to mind) is going to offer me anything in the futurerider-scythe-clover-letter-sun I see action then something ending quickly with luck attached, communication resulting in some warm times Anyone?

I was *told* to pull two more and change the dynamic of the spread so it was past present and futurepast ~ rider-scythe - this was an ending..i sent him on his way present-clover-letter ~ communication by mail or text bringing happy or good news future-sun-tree ~ something growing and remaining which would bring warmth Anyone?

If the question what will he offer you the future being sun + tree - seems like he will offer you happiness/clarity and stability maybe?Although that seems totally wrong to me as exs don't usually bring that lol... more like be careful not to get burned by his outward charisma. IP: Logged |

thanks star....yes i wouldnt be fooled by him now. i wouldnt go back..just was wondering how immature and deluded he still is looks like he hasnt grown up any then! i wonder if those two cards mean just a *promise* of growth which could not be genuine as in blind optimism which then couldnt be fulfilled?IP: Logged |

I think you're right about the promise of growth - maybe they're saying him showing up will offer you clarity as to your own growth? Or give you clarity to the stable relationship you would like... IP: Logged |

I did a spread for this upcoming week and got - ship + moon + book + woman + garden + sun + clock So the theme is the woman? About me? Ship + moon + book - movement to do with reputation of the unknown so maybe movement towards psychic powers opening up? I'm not planning a trip this week... garden + sun + clock - maybe a great meeting? ( don't have any dates planned up.... ) Love to hear that you guys think... IP: Logged |
