A much-needed guide to this increasingly popular divination system written by a Lenormand master and teacher.
“Whether you are a novice seeking to immerse yourself in the magic of Lenormand or a seasoned diviner eager to expand your understanding, The Language of Lenormand will be your steadfast companion.”
—from the foreword by Carrie Paris
The Language of Lenormand is one of the clearest guides ever written for this beloved divination system. Popular in Europe for centuries, the Lenormand deck, consisting of thirty-six numbered and named cards, has now been embraced in North America by cartomancers, tarot enthusiasts, oracle readers, and many others. Each card depicts an archetype—a fox, a snake, a coffin, or whip, for example—rather than tarot’s somewhat more involved symbology. This makes the Lenormand system an easy entry point to divination.
Widely respected authority Erika Robinson believes that Lenormand is not just a deck of cards but also a language that, if mastered, can help you achieve self-empowerment and the ability to attain the life you desire. A longtime English teacher, she helps readers become fluent in the language of Lenormand. This clearly written, accessible guide to the meanings of each card requires no prior knowledge of Lenormand, but is simultaneously a sophisticated book that takes Lenormand to the next level, providing greater insights and elucidation for those already familiar with it.
