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.

A while back, someone in our community suggested I do a reading about the coronavirus. Of course it’s a fabulous idea and I’ve been wanting to do it since.
Alas, just like many of you, I’ve been held up in a lockdown and unable to do as much as I’d like across different...

If you’ve seen a Lenormand deck, you’ve probably noticed that each card is associated with a playing card - or pip. The pip, card number, and sometimes a quote, are ‘insets’ on Lenormand’s cards. Inset are in-set within the card.

Hello everyone and welcome to my first episode about how to read the cards. In this technique video, we're going to focus on the Hourglass. This came about as a request to explain the Hourglass layout. There's also a Free Printable guide for this Hourglass reading, so...
