History of original lenormand cards

Lenormand cards are named after the French fortune teller Madame Marie Anne Lenormand. It is said that Madame Lenormand foresaw the period from the French Revolution to Napoleon’s rise and his death.

Although it is not precisely known which cards Madame Lenormand used for her predictions, it is believed that a student of hers prepared the primitive form of the Lenormand Cards used today after her death. However, this has never been proven!

Nevertheless, all thanks go to the Lenormand readers with extraordinary dedication, because thanks to them, we have become acquainted with various Lenormand decks today.

Originally consisting of 54 cards, the Lenormand deck is now used with 36 cards for readings.

What are lenormand cards?

In the simplest explanation, Lenormand is a divination deck consisting of 36 cards. Each card is read in pairs and combined with other paired cards.

Some cards have positive meanings, while others have negative meanings. Other cards are considered neutral.

Tarot cards and Lenormand cards are often confused, and it is said that they are not very different from each other, but this idea is far from reality.

There is no similarity between Lenormand cards and Tarot cards, and their reading methods are entirely different, so their divination methods and details are also different.
