The Clover, the Bear, the Key—Cartomancy in Everyday Dress!
Since the 19th century, the Lenormand deck—with its succinct, iconic imagery—has remained one of the most enduring systems of European cartomancy. Comprising 36 emblematic cards—anchors, scythes, letters, foxes—it offers a pragmatic, unembellished alternative to the more metaphorical language of the Tarot.
Where the Tarot speaks in archetypes, Lenormand articulates circumstance. It is an oracular system attuned to the daily cadences of life: decisions, disruptions, coincidences, and the quiet choreography of the everyday. Its clarity and immediacy make it an ideal companion for those seeking insight into tangible, present-tense concerns.
In this seven-week immersion, we will summon the spirit of the Sibyl of Paris and follow a progressive arc—from the simplicity of three-card draws to the intricate architecture of the Grand Tableau. Each session will build upon the last, refining your fluency in the system and sharpening your interpretive craft.
Whether you are a curious novice or a seasoned reader seeking formal structure, this course invites you into the lucid, symbol-rich world of Lenormand divination—with practical precision, graphic elegance, and a touch of old-world enchantment.
