Following on from my previous post about 5 Big Mistakes re: accuracy in your Lenormand interpretations, I wanted to go in depth a little more about Lenormand questions, and the issue of “How do I get the cards to answer the question in MY situation?” as it is an issue that comes up quite a …
How do you get the most out of your Lenormand cards? Well, it depends what you’re looking for from them, of course. Do you want them to tell you what is likely to happen to you tomorrow? Do you want them to help you explore the influences around a situation? Do you want them to …
