Free Lenormand Practice for Beginners

 Dear fellow cartomancers,

 Let me take this opportunity to thank you for your support and your suggestions! Please feel free to message me whenever you have an idea of how this website could be improved!

Due to popular request, I have decided to make the free exercises a little (a lot, actally) easier, as many of you are beginners and have asked for simple exercises to help you improve your intition and the interpretation of cards in all kinds of constellations and combinations.

This November, let us take a closer look at the Card No. 5 (Tree) !

Note that the Tree is also a time- and a future-card!

Further meanings:

• Health: immune system
• Features, characteristics, personality: deep-rootedness, love for nature, stability, secrity
• Time: 9 – 12 months
• Future: Something is bound to happen
• Profession: Future work or profession, manual labour, old professions
• Astrology: Taurus
• Chacra: Root chacra
• Gemstone: petrified wood, moss agate, rose quartz
• Colour: Moss green

Hint:

As a rule of thumb, the Tree symbolizes anything to do with roots, ancestry and descendance.

The tree refers to family, to our roots, durability and sturdiness.

Keep in mind that things like emotions, beliefs and even sicknesses may be deep rooted inside us.

Combinations and correlations with other cards:

people- or personality cards (excluding the card that represents you or your client) are usually to be interpreted as members of your family.

Nr.7 Snake = mother, No. 15 Bear = father, No. 18 Dog = brother, No. 13 child = either your own child or a younger sibling or cousin.

Questions to ask yourself:

•  How do I feel about my family? What role do my children, my parents or my partner play in my life?
• Do I generally feel content and at ease, or do I sometimes feel disrooted?
• Where do I belong?
• Who do I feel closest to?

The following cards show clearly how the way in which the tree is read can change the meaning of the line profoundly.

• As "family": Your family home may be difficult to keep, due to some financial changes (Stork+ Fish = financial changes) for the worse. Take this as a warning!
• As a future card: You will move house in the future (stork + house = relocation), but watch out, it will be cost intensive.
• As "certainty": You will certainly have to move , but it will surely be financially straining.

So you have already practised the basic meanings of your Lenormand crdas and know them by heart?

Then you already know that the card No 4, House, can have the following meanings:

• home
• house
• safety, cozyness

Unfortunately, the cards practically never show up on their own, which is why we have to interpret them together in the constellations in which they appear.

In this month's exercise, we will combine some of our Lenormand-Cards with No 4, House.

Take a look at the following cards, recall their basic meanings, and combine them to form a meaningful sentence.

No 4, House (home, at home) + No 17, Stork (changes)

Possible interpretation:

There will be some changes at home. In this case we may already say that there will be a relocation or a redecoration, as those two cards form a so-called combination, which (as opposed to a mere constellation) carry a fixed meaning.

No 4, House (home) + No 2, clover (lappiness, luck)

Possible interpretation:

A happy home / Being at home makes you happy.

home + love + communication

Possible interpretation:

You will talk lovingly (or about love) at home.

decisions + home + changes + trouble, arguments, discussion

Possible interpretation:

Decisions regarding a relocation or redecoration are made, which may lead to arguments or trouble, or are carried out without much care for other people involved.

You will remember that the following cards No 4 + 17 are a fixed combination and mean relocation ode redecoration

 Got it? Great, it is your turn then!

Take a look at the following exercises and try to work out what they could try to tell you!

No 4 House + No 31 Sun

Your interpretation:

No 4 House + No 34 Money + No 22 decision

Your interpretation:

No 4 House + No 12 trouble, arguments + 6 clouds

Your interpretation:

Possible solutions:

No 4 House + No 31 Sun

A successful and energetic time at home.

No 4 House + No 34 Money + No 22 decision

There are some financial decisions to be made considering the home.

No 4 House + No 12 trouble, arguments + 6 Clouds

Things may not be at their happiest at home at the moment, but this is a passing situation.

September 2019

This month's exercises all deal with the Ship Card!

 Before you start, make sure you remember all the basic meanings of this Lenormand card!

 N0 3, Ship, may efer to any of the following:

• Travel, Trip
•  Distance

This month's exercises are all about combining the Shipcard with other cards out of the Lenormand Card deck.

Take a good look at the cards, recall their basic meanings and then try to combine the meanings into one coherent statement.

No 3, Ship + No 17, Stork     =    Trip, Journey, Travel + Changes

Possible readings:

•  There might be a change considering the destination.
•  A trip will change vertain things in your life ( in a full spread, look at the surrounding cards for more information)

Another example:

Possible reading:

You (or the person you are reading the cards for) will take a trip and fall in love.

In order to receive further information, we must take a look at the surrounding cards. In this exampe I have extended the line by another card:

Possible reading:

You (or the person you are reading the cards for) will take a trip and fall in love AND keep in contact (exchange numbers or addresses)

Got it? It is your turn then!

Your interpretation:

Solutions / my interpretations:

Ship + Scythe:  Even though might actually go on your trip, it will be terminated at some point.

Ship + Fox: Traveller, be wary! You might get lost or hurt.

Ship + Book: This trip is still in the planning stages, you cannot yet say if, when or where you will actually go.

August 2019

This month, I would like to start with the following constellation:

In the same way we combine the clover cards with any other card in the deck.

Some constellations may be easier than others and immediately catch your eye in a spread, but it is worth practising with all yor cards.

Now try the same with all the other cards!

Clover + Child = a happy child

Clover + Scythe = Take care or your happiness will end!

Clover + Rat (sometimes also known as Mice) = Happiness is endangered

Clover + Man = ?

Clover + Heart = ?

Clover + Garden/ Park = ?

Make sure you learn the meanings of each individual card and then follow your intuition as you go along!

I hope these exercises (and the ones still to come) will help you unerstand and interpret your Lenormand Cards.

For those of you who are more advanced and would like to see some more complicated spreads, you can find them here!
