Lenormand Card Combinations & Exercises

I've had "Lozzy's Complete Guide To Lenormand," a Kindle book, for a while, and have come to greatly appreciate her approach, where the order of a pair of cards is emphasized. If nothing else, it means you get more possible meanings for each pair of cards, instead of a having "card B with card A" simple repeat "card A with Card B." Her system is quite simple: "the card on the left is the noun, the card on the right is the adjective," which almost always works, or perhaps more generally, the card on the right modifies the card on the left. I found that studying her list of combinations was greatly enhancing my "feel" for the thirty-six cards, and how they are used, but working back and forth in the Kindle version was aggravating. So I bought this, her combinations book, in hard copy. It am quite delighted with it. The large format means that each card's combinations can start on a left-hand page and finish on the back of that page, while not cramping the type size and leaving plenty of space for notes, or simply ease of reading. It is also important that every pair One might be tempted get a second copy to cut apart and laminate the 36 card sheets. Note that lists such as this are not for memorizing, but to refer to when you are learning or are stuck, and I think more importantly, to refresh and expand ones understanding and perception of the individual cards and how they relate to one another. Anyone who has ever dealt with translating or interpreting between languages knows that it is rare that words in the two languages mean exactly the same thing, carry exactly the same weight. And indeed, the Lenormand cards qualify as a (somewhat simple) language of their own, and they don't always "translate" the same in readings, just as their names and core meanings in different languages aren't precisely the same from language to language. By reading various card descriptions and various combination lists, by different writers and if possible, in different languages, that we can build the strongest,most useful sense of what a card means when it appears when we do a reading. Even if we disagree, that disagreement can be useful. I think anyone, learner or beyond, can benefit from this book.

I was first exposed to Tarot 45 yearsago. At that time I purchased a Petit Lenormand but had no idea what it was or how to use it. In the intervening years I collected Tarot decks and books. I recently discovered there are many references on how to read Lenormand and bought several. Lozzy’s exercise book contains valuable reading exercises for beginners. But like Tarot interpretation, the card meanings vary among authors. This is the only negative about this book; substantial difference in interpretation of the cards from other books that seem, for the most part, to agree on card meanings. I will use this book but will have to pencil in meanings for cards that I have learned that differ from Lozzy’s interpretations.

Right from the start I found this book extremely helpful, as it has clear and concise meanings for each card. The author initially gives individual meanings, then goes through al possible combinations for each card. Later in the book you can test the knowledge you have gained - very helpful! I recommend this for anyone exploring the Lenormand. Well done!

I found the Kindle version of this book very helpful in understanding the combination of the cards. It has led me to a deeper understanding of what the cards were saying. Well worth the Kindle price.

This is exactly what it is; a big book of Lenormand combinations and it's very clear and very handy. My only suggestion if it ever gets re-printed is to make it smaller, like purse-sized for easy carry.If you're brand new to Lenormand and need to know what each card is in detail, this isn't what you're looking for. If you've already learned the basics of each card and its meanings this will help show you greater detail in your readings.

This author created a great teaching work book to really help TEACH the way to read Lenormand cards. While the author gave basic meanings which get you up and running, there are many more definitions that are broken down by with even more detail.But overall, the author did a fantastic job.

Easy to understand, helpful to work with card draws!

It is very simple and is like you have a teacher with you. For me, that have no one around me to teach how to read the cards, is a great resource.
