If you follow me on social media, you might notice that every week I post a Red Owl quote.

The Red Owl deck is one of two traditional Lenormand decks. We say ‘traditional’ because they’re the older versions - as far as we know - of the 36-card Petit Jeu Lenormand.

The Blue and...

I like to call our ability to stretch our reading skills, the interpretive imagination.

I don’t mean by this that we invent messages that aren’t there, but rather that we’re able to grasp deeper insights from the cards so we get genuinely helpful answers to our questions.

Don’t you wish you had a side hustle during this pandemic?

There is no doubt that this pandemic shook our grounds and pulled many carpets from under our feet.

If you’re one of the lucky few who was untouched by all this, then good for you. 

But in all likelihood, the pandemic has...

Of the many facets that we’ve dealt with through the Covid pandemic, working from home has emerged as a key lifestyle change.

For those who aren’t used to it, it proved to be a challenge. But only at first, I think, as with the technologies of the day we can quickly adapt to online...

These are truly strange times.

The corona virus has practically the whole world locked down.

I always found it tricky to memorize Lenormand’s card numbers. It’s even tricky to look them up in a...

Most of us come to Lenormand because of its amazing ‘in-your-face’ insights. But sooner or later, and the more we practice, we’ll get those readings that seem to not say much.

There’s actually a word for this Lenormand phenomenon and we can thank the amazing Caitlin...

Hi everyone!  Welcome back to the channel.

Today I want to do this long due video about my Lenormand cards, and I want to say, before I start anything: Thank you so much Pauline, and thank you so much Jojuan for pointing me to these cards. Jojuan you sent...

After just a short while exploring Lenormand’s cards, it becomes clear that they can be broadly divided into positive, negative, and neutral cards.

This is one reason why it’s easy to learn Lenormand and why we quickly make a connection with the cards.

Interpreting cards as positive,...

That’s why simple line layouts often have an odd number...
