Have you ever wondered why some of the cards can, on the surface at least, seem to have almost the SAME meaning in a spread? And how you might tell the difference? And what the subtle differences are?
Well, in this post, we’re going to look at some of the nuances between these cards in relation to common meanings. If you’ve ever struggled with why, say, the Sun, the Bouquet, the Clover and the Stars ALL apparently denote “Success and Positivity” in some way, or the Bear and the Fish both supposedly mean “Money”, look no further!
What you will see is that the differences and nuances in meanings and when you’d use them are generally related to the particular energy that sits behind each card. Get familiar with these energies, and you’ll find that interpreting your spreads will become a lot easier.

What about sex cards? Particularly, I don’t like Lilies to represent sex, but do you have something to say about it? I would love to know.
Hi Fabricio,
I never use the Lilies for sex, so I didn’t include them here, as for me it isn’t a different-cards-meaning-the-same-thing conflict. I have written about it quite a bit elsewhere on the blog. As you’ll see from the card meanings, I tend to use the Whip card for sex. If you have the Rana George Lenormand, she has a Bed card to use. Hope that helps. Lozzy.
Hi, Lozzy.
Rereading some of your articles and your recently acquired book (I enjoyed it very much!), it made much more sense. Thank you for your clarifications and lessons.
