Lessons in Lenormand: The Ship (3)

Sooo... How are you doing today? I hope you are ready for the next bit of my Lessons in Lenormand 😃. This week we are going to have a look at the Ship, the 3rd card of the Lenormand deck:

Card number 3: The Ship

The Ship generally symbolises traveling distances that are not possible to reach within a day's journey on foot. I once heard that it is a minimum of 50 kilometers (31.0686 miles, roughly...), but of course, the numbers can differ wherever you are. Think of places you can only reach by train, coach, or plane. Or, as the card already suggests, by ship. Anyways, if you or your querent's question revolved around maybe going to a different place, and this card shows up (with no cards telling you otherwise), you or they can be sure that the travel's going to happen.

The Ship & the House (4) in combination can speak of a home far away, and especially when combined with the Stork (17), it can speak of relocating/moving to a different place (oftentimes in a different region of the world).

When combined with the Tree (5), I would say it could stand for finding health and balance in a different place. Think of health resorts, for example.

With the Snake (7), it could stand for getting to your destination by taking detours, whatsoever.

Combined with the Mice (23), once again, you have to pay attention to the (upmost) mouse in the card image. When it "gnaws" off the Ship, it could mean a journey which wouldn't be as long/far, or when its behind is facing the Ship, the journey in question wouldn't be as "nice" and refreshing as you may have wanted.

By the way, with many combinations, please keep in mind that they mostly can be applied in the Grand Tableau (a spread using all 36 cards), because when in three-card spreads or so, I often see these three cards as single messages coming out. Not always, mind you, but you have to go with your intuition, and for me personally, there is only so much space to interpret the three single cards one has drawn. Within the Grand Tableau, you also pay attention to a group of cards at once, not necessarily only the two cards needed for the combination. But we will talk about this later on.

Please do take care of yourselves, and see you next week!

Lessons in Lenormand: The Snake (7)

Hey there! Sorry for the delay. I wanted to update yesterday, but currently we are going through a heatwave and I personally am going through a bit of a rough patch health-wise. I will try to talk about the Lenormand card of the Snake a little bit now: Card number 7: The Snake This card can be interpreted in various ways. First, it can represent a wise, possibly older woman, somebody deeply spiritual and even psychic. They could very well be somebody who deals with what we are dealing with now (CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLE S~~!!!)... Yes, cartomancy and tarot can play a role here, but also other tools for divination and tapping into one's own intuitive powers - astrology, numerology, palmistry, rune casting, you name it. Many more, too, of course. In relationship readings, the Snake can also represent somebody who presents as a third party, especially when combined with the personifiers nearby and... Maybe also the Fox (14). Please note, however, that there are cards that would "...

Should you start with Lenormand cards or tarot cards?

Hello again~! As you may have guessed already by reading the title, we are talking about which sort of card deck you should start with, based on the comparison of tarot vs. Lenormand. From my own experience, it depends on what types of information you want to "draw" from your readings, but also on what kind of deck "asks you to be used" for said reading. There were times when I focused solely on one medium to get information from. I found that, while tarot in the beginning was easier for my intuition to take the steering wheel, much information on how to read Lenormand online and in books focuses on learning the single meanings of the cards, and how each combination of cards could be interpreted. However, intuition plays a huge role in both processes, no matter what you do. A Lenormand card spread (Grand Tableau), using the Blaue Eule Lenormand deck. (Sorry for the flashlight I used :\...) Let's start with Lenormand: Here, the size of the decks I have worked wit...

What, who, where, why?

On my journey to where and who I am today, I unfortunately came across a lot of half-truths, if not downright urban legends and lies concerning how to read (tarot, lenormand, oracle) cards, how to interpret birth horoscopes, and various other spiritual practices. Are you allowed to read for yourself? Are you not allowed to purchase e. g. a tarot deck calling to you, and wait until it is gifted to you instead? How to shuffle the cards correctly? Should you read reversals? With astrology, are you mostly your sun sign? Or your rising and moon sign? Is there more to your personality than just the components I mentioned before? Are certain zodiac signs not trustworthy, or cold-hearted? I think you get the gist of what I am trying to say here. In this blog, I will be teaching you what I have learned on my 30+ years journey through the world of spirituality, so hi! My name is Marina, and if one word could be used to describe me (There are more, of course!), it would be "curious". No...
