Lenormand fortune telling cards

By Roopa Patel October 1, 2023

The new craze in Europe…Lenormand fortune telling cards!

Lenormand fortune telling cards were created by Mademoiselle Lenormand in 18 century France. They have become very popular because unlike Tarot they are not rooted in the spiritual or the occult. There are 36 cards in most Lenormand decks and they deal with realities of everyday life. They provide direct answers to situations in this material world. If you are stressed and anxious about something material, you can get quick answers that are precise and practical. Their symbols are also from everyday life like a Mountain, Garden, Book, Rider, etc.

Mademoiselle Lenormand who created these cards was the most famous clairvoyant of her times. She led an unusual and tumultuous life. Rebellious and bold, she was a fey child who made predictions that came true. And she was punished for them.

In Paris she heard of Etteilli Tarot cards but could not afford them. So, she started predicting with her playing cards and others materials like eggs, water, lamp, mirrors and coffee grounds. She was led to various alleyways of divination early in life, and met leading necromancers, magicians, Kabala practitioners, Tarot card readers, Cartomancers of the times. She wrote several books and made future predictions that were all correct

She predicted World War I, space travel and air travel way ahead of their happening. She also predicted the French Revolution, fall of Louis the XVI, the beheading of Queen Marie Antoinette, rise of Napoleon, his marriage and his downfall.

She became a household name in France and UK. And ruled the salons and courts of both the countries. Imprisoned several times she dabbled in controversies until the very end.
