I agree with you on this. ARLO is one of my favorites but I wish it shuffled more easily.Le Normand ARLO is my favourite deck, it isn't plastic or phony, and to me, it's an inspiration to follow suit in my own way with something similarly traditional.
Excuse me? You would have had to pay an additional $5 for international shipping, so the ARLO you "had" would have cost you £18.64 minimum.andybc said:I had it but its disappointing, in quality, so for me not worth £15.

Hello, and Thank You! Yes, researching tea leaf meanings is not easy by any means. It' frustrating! The reward, as it is so often, comes from sifting the dross for the gold. I did keep a good deal of authentic dross in with the possible gold when I compiled the meanings posted above. Obviously, reading tea leaves is not at all like reading Lenormand.I agree with you on this. ARLO is one of my favorites but I wish it shuffled more easily.
KariRoad - Thank you so much for all the TeaLeaf meanings. I had started to make such a list a while ago but never got around to finishing it. You've done a great job - it's so helpful!
Hello, Carla ~ I do hope you get this very deck! It will be the Dondorf Carreras deck pretty much exactly, so far as Art, and bumped up to standard size. Of course a real Carreras would be a collectors item, but Lo Scarabeos "French" Cartomancy deck is an authentic German-English deck. Enjoy!Carla said:I gathered this from a thread I found at a tarot collectors forum. Print quality, etc, not so good. Well, I've got a French Cartomancy deck on the way to me, so that will do for now!

There are hundreds of TEA LEAF reading possibilities, and only 36 for Lenormand, though 36 variables may easily approach unimagined degrees of infinity. Gotta lovitt!
Also, and especially, I like your way of challenging these cards!
The "book" needs to be written with forward motion. The past was once impatiently awaiting the future we presume.
Are you kidding? The 1845 cards, printed in Germany, obsequiously titled Le Normand, are precisely tea leaf fortune telling images. Where else on earth would they have originated from with any validity? The printing industry was booming! Etc etc etc goodnightI think it would be very hard to prove a definite link between the Lenormand, and tea leaf reading.
As for meanings, I do have some that are very similar that come from Romania (for about 16 or so cards).
I did find the meanings you posted very interesting though, so thank you - and I can imagine it would be like sifting through dross.
