AUTHOR'S NOTE: Every year at this time we begin to anticipate our month-long vacation in Florida. In 2026 it will be in March instead of February, which we assume will bring warmer weather. This is my adaptation of the French Cross spread for use with the Lenormand cards. The reading is divided into two parts: … Continue reading Florida Vacation: A Lenormand Snapshot

“Distributed Lenormand” – Normalizing the Grand Tableau
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I recently performed a Grand Tableau (GT) in which all of the negative cards were scattered far-and-wide throughout the population. Few of them appeared in close combination with either the topic cards or each other, making for what I told the sitter looked like a "roller-coaster ride" of ups-and-downs with only a couple … Continue reading “Distributed Lenormand” – Normalizing the Grand Tableau
Revisiting the Six-Card Lenormand Mini-Tableau
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I created this simple design some time ago based on a segment lifted from the Lenormand Grand Tableau (GT) and decided to elaborate on its use.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Even with nearly twelve years of study and practice behind me, I'm still far less experienced with divination using the Lenormand cards than I am with tarot reading after five decades of involvement, so I haven't felt confident (or competent) in publishing a Lenormand e-book to accompany my five tarot volumes. The fact … Continue reading “Lenormand 101” in Brief
The “Targeted” Grand Tableau
AUTHOR'S NOTE: During the brief time I spent in the traditionalist enclave of the online Lenormmand community (it turned out that, even though I adhere closely to historical methods, my original ideas were still too "experimental" for them), I picked up a concept that I have yet to fully explore in my own work. I … Continue reading The “Targeted” Grand Tableau
