Divination by Maria Lenormand has remained popular for many decades. It was the creator of this system who managed to see the future of Napoleon Bonaparte, Josephine Beauharnais and many other influential people with precision. And the best part is that you can learn such a truthful fortune-telling yourself!
Features of divination Lenormand
To predict the future, Mary used 36 cards with different symbols, each of which had its own meaning. It is possible to use ordinary playing cards for fortune telling Lenormand, although it is not recommended to do so. It will be better if you purchase a special deck or make it yourself.
When guessing at Lenormand, you can use two different methods. The first option concerns layouts in which subsequent positions are not closely related to the previous ones. An example is the questions “What a person feels”, “What attitude does he show”, “What are his goals”. In this case, you need to concentrate on the question that interests you, shuffle the deck, shoot with your left hand, and then lay out the top card on the table. The second option concerns Lenormand's fortune telling about a situation or relationship with such questions as "What did he feel in the past", "What have become his emotions in the present", "How will his attitude change in the future." In this case, only the first card is dealt in the manner described above. Looking at her number, you need to remove the card that is under the same number in the deck. For example, if a Ship fell out, this means that you should draw the third card from the top.
To begin with, it is recommended to master several simple fortune-telling options, including the "Card of the Day". This will help you become more familiar with the deck and learn how to make accurate predictions. Subsequently, you can move on to more complex layouts.
How to understand the meaning of Lenormand cards
The most difficult and at the same time the most interesting part of divination by Lenormand is the interpretation of the alignment. In this system, maps are rarely interpreted on their own. In most cases, a proofreader is drawn to each of them, or the fortuneteller lays out a number of cards and takes into account their combinations when interpreting.
When determining the meanings of the cards, it is very important to rely on your associations. The same alignment can have different meanings depending on what emotions it evokes in the fortuneteller and what his intuition tells the soothsayer. So, the mountain can talk about obstacles or career growth, rise or fall, difficulties or overcoming trials. A child can evoke associations with innocence, gullibility, purity, sincere emotions, infantilism, stupid whims. That is why, while learning fortune telling on Lenormand, it is important not so much to rely on interpretations proposed by someone, but to create your own, taking into account your own observations and the characteristics of a particular situation. Try it and you will see that this is a very exciting activity that will later help you develop your intuition and learn to predict the future!
