How did you end up getting into the world of the Lenormand?
It’s all Facebook’s fault, really. I had already started my Tarot journey in 2012 by connecting with readers on Twitter and Facebook when the English-speaking interest in the Lenormand fortune-telling cards began to really grow (they’ve been popular on the Continent of Europe for over 150 years, I think). I joined a great Facebook group on the subject and have been fascinated ever since.
it’s a very different kind of system in a lot of ways. The cards can be interpreted in the currently popular intuitive way that’s popular for the Tarot, but I prefer the traditional approach just because it’s refreshingly different. I get to experiment with a true fortune-telling process. If you choose to study this divination system and its linguistic, multi-card approach to reading, you may find, like I did, that it has interesting application in other oracles, particularly Tarot.
