Beginner help!

Migdal93

Hi!

I started my journey with cards about 2 months ago. Tarot caught my eye first and I've been enjoying it very much. Lenormand was something I was really curious about and very excited to learn.

But it has been hard! Harder than I thought it would be. With tarot, things simply flow - I can't seem to get the same with lenormand. My deck is wonderful and the french traditions make a lot of sense to me. But I don't really know how to find a good approach to study it.

Living in Brazil I got the two books I had avaliable - Learning Lenormand by Marcus Katz and Rana George's The Essential Guide. I started reading the latter, haven't touched Katz's book yet.

Are there any tips for someone who is struggling with the cards? Maybe a way to get into a "lenormand head"?

Any help will be much appreciated!

hi, what are you struggling with?

I'm still learning.

Maybe a way to get into a "lenormand head"?

forget everything that you read the way of tarot. i have been working with tarot many years, but it is natural to me.

daily draw is good for practice.

I find that my meanings start to get too "esoteric" and not practical at all! I always have to stop myself from going overboard hahahaha :D
