This was split from: Do you find the Lenormand to be counter-intuitive?
I am completely new to Lenormand, I'm
about to start some serious studying! I am a tarot reader and oracle reader and have done both for many, many years, I love both of these divinations and have read for myself and others very accurately... Intuition is the keyword with tarot and oracle reading in my opinion so many insights can be gleaned, everything flows so beautifully and there is so much scope to enter each card and in a spread a accurate story unfolds as all the cards fit together intuitively...
Now I wish to learn lenormand, as a complete beginner I have read with much interest this thread, I have also looked online at all things lennie, I intend to immerse myself into this new divination completely, I have 4 decks and I have downloaded Rana's essential Lenormand to my kindle, I have chosen my French Cartomancy deck to learn with as that is the most basic for me..
Everyone's opinions in this thread have been enlightening and enjoyable to read..I had already decided
I will be learning the traditional way, that feels the right way for me, of all the posts in this thread Teheuti's are the ones I can resonate with, I understand completely what is being said and as a beginner just starting out I intend to learn the Lenormand language first, I think it's quite exciting to read cards in a different style to tarot or oracle, obviously as my learning progresses and I understand the traditional system better my intuition can be let loose and hopefully make my readings even better..
I really don't want to start off read ing lenormand with only my intuition.. In fact my gut feeling is telling me NOT to!
If I want to read solely intuitively I can pick up my tarot cards/oracles and get accurate guidance..
What fascinates me the most and made me so interested in Lenormand is the fact that it is different from Tarot, I know learning the traditional way is going to take quite some time but it's the right way for me, I feel there will be a place for intuition of course there will, but not in the beginning I want to learn traditionally first.
