Review: This book gets a BIG RED KISS of approval! - ‘The Essential Lenormand’ by Rana George, due for release in March 2014 by Llewellyn Publications. Reading this book is like experiencing a chocolate explosion in the mouth! Deliciously surprising and comfortingly familiar all at once. Rana George is our undisputed Lennie Guru, our Divination Diva. Just like Rana, her book is wholly unpretentious and patiently clear in its meaning. Finally! Lenormand demystified in a language and approach that speaks to even the most novice of readers. For those amongst us who have never read lenormand before, fear not. Armed with nothing but a deck of regular playing cards and this book you will have everything you need to begin immediately. Rana George is the fortune-telling ‘aunty’ we all wished we had, you know, the one that gives us the ‘inside scoop’ on outrageously successful fortune telling through years of authentic practice and divination. She has taken us under her wing! With patience and in plain language, demonstrating real-life events with examples, Rana effortlessly steers us through these essential lenormand lessons. ‘This is Lenormand on steroids’ was what came to mind as I dove in, page after page. Where others have tried and perhaps not quite succeeded, Rana has waved her magic wand to create light at the end of the lenormand tunnel! Eureka! In these pages she takes us through the benefits of reading lenormand and the process toward approaching our readings, to the correct way of structuring our questions. Along with her sagely advice on the importance of consistency in which she advocates the necessity of sticking to one system, allowing it to eventually evolve into our own personalised system, Rana guides us in an unambiguous manner that instils confidence in our abilities to replicate her expertise with ease, by steering us away from overwhelming confusion toward becoming confident and expert readers. The detailed attention Rana George gives to each of the 36 cards in The Essential Lenormand is a treasure trove of wisdom and knowledge! As with words in any language (the meaning of which is dependent on the context in which they are spoken,) Rana goes through different meanings for each card in context to many different areas of use. These include: Predictions, mannerisms & personalities as described by the cards, work, love, health, finances, the ever elusive question of timing, advice or action oriented readings, negative & positive cards, finding lost objects, traditional meanings and she very preciously shares her personal anecdotes for each card too. This is truly a vast volume of in-depth and relevant meanings for each card which will greatly expand our lenormand vocabulary. Therefore this chapter alone makes The Essential Lenormand the most valuable English book available on this subject to date, in my opinion. But, that’s not all! There is a whole section dedicated to spreads and techniques. I felt like a kid in a candy store! Anyone serious about lenormand will drool over this section of her book! Jam-packed with so much useful information that it serves to mentor each of us; taking us from beginners to masters of this art! Readers could not wish for a more practical, down-to-earth approach that keeps on surprising with jewels of knowledge and countless ah-hah moments! Rana’s chapter on the Grand Tableau, a spread that has intimidated many a reader before, is possibly the crown jewel in this priceless treasure. In the same charming style that gives absolute clarity and in-depth understanding throughout the book, Rana shares with us her personal approach to reading the Grand Tableau. This is huge! This is the mother-load of Grand Tableau tuition (minus the fear factor.) Finally there can no longer be an excuse to avoid becoming an expert lenormand reader, it would be almost impossible to miss the mark with this essential guide at our side. Generously illustrated and expertly detailed without losing her readers, The Essential Lenormand is notably the most valuable book currently available to lenormand readers in the English speaking world today. This is more than just another book on lenormand, it is an absolute necessity for anyone who is considering lenormand as a divination tool, equally so for those readers who are already proficient in this system of fortune telling as even expert readers are guaranteed to learn something new! Fair warning though, have a box of kleenex handy. Rana tells us about her lenormand beginnings in war-torn Beirut. Her tale reads like something from The Book Thief; richly embroidered with the romance of old-school family-taught divination during the angst of a bloody war that revealed both the best and worst of humanity in a very personal manner to this young impressionable girl. She tells us the tale of her humble beginnings as a child and hereditary fortune-teller who was at first almost surprised and apologetic about the accuracy of her predictions, and who then later was haunted by the same as the horrors of war brutalised her nearest and dearest. She lived through the horrifying effects of war not once, but twice as she first saw these events unfold in the cards before they manifested in a cruel savagery that deeply impacted her life in Beirut before immigrating to the USA with her remaining family. Rana shares her painful memories of these difficult years and tells how lenormand was a stabilising influence that comforted and empowered her. In later years she passed her astounding gift on to her 3 young sons who have each become gifted readers in their own right. Furthermore, in sharing her experience and expertise with lenormand though this beautiful book, our Lenormand Guru is passing the same on to us. We thank you Rana! 388 pages of pure genius. That is what you will get once you own a copy of what is sure to become the best-selling book in this genre for years to come. I give it 5 stars! Rana George wins the ‘Lenormand Oscars’ with this book. It will take nothing short of a miracle to surpass what she has shared in these precious pages. Kinda like Rana’s darling red-lips trademark and her keep-it-simple-sweetheart approach, this book gets a BIG RED KISS of approval! Review originally published on Tarot Taxi [...]
Review: Great Guide For Lenormand, I Use For Self-Directed Therapy And This Makes It Easier - First off, I use the Tarot and Lenormand as part of self-directed therapy, dealing with a violent-assault, as I was taught to do many years ago by a beautiful New Age practitioner and counselor who noticed that survivors of attacks that should ended their lives were very often aided by using these systems to help them focus on healing without forcing them to confront too much too quickly. And, because I'm not using this as part of my religious practice, I wanted to be respectful of the religious elements of Lenormand by mentioning that, in discussing this book with Wiccan and Neo Pagan friends who use Lenormand Oracles with this book as their guidebook, they've told me that they love this book as much as I do and they find it very respectful of their individual belief systems while also finding it to be very informative. I am one of many Christians who frequent our new age shops and who socialize there, in the same circles with many people from many different backgrounds, and I've noticed that this book has very broad appeal and seems to be very eye-opening for everyone who tries it. But, as to me specifically, in using this for contemplation as part of therapy, I find that there are times when contemplating issues while also contemplating artwork/imagery/symbolism in fully-illustrated Tarot decks and lovely oracle decks can feel oppressive if the mind is overwhelmed by memories of what happened, and it's at those times when I find Lenormand most helpful. When dealing with death of another victim and the damage to myself, as a result of surviving violent crime, I sometimes find that I need something softer and easier and more direct to focus my thinking. And I was very fortunate to be told about this Lenormand guide and a couple of very artistically-rendered decks that I can use on difficult days to try to focus myself and center myself, so that I can think about something more productive and so that I can move through my day with more of a focus on what my goal is for that day or the goal of my next few weeks of activity. The core difference between the Lenormand system, which most people haven't even heard of, and the Tarot system, which we've had since people in 1700's French bars began using playing-cards to tell fortunes late at the end of a night of drinking and dancing, is that Tarot has grown into a more complex and art/symbolism centered system of looking at the present and the past and even the distant future with far more subjective ideas/images/concepts and without any restraint on thinking that might require more concrete or rigid thinking/ideology. The Lenormand system is basically the opposite of this. Lenormand is far more direct, simple, and short-term. It's focused on the here-and-now as well as the very-soon, it's focused on the simpler aspects of living, it's focused on getting the user to limit their own focus on very specific and discreet and limited ideas/questions to direct their thinking toward what is mattering most to them right now. Lenormand is designed to aid us in thinking about concrete issues, questions we have, problems we have, things we wish to resolve, and all the basic issues facing us. It's not designed to allow the mind to wander, it's not designed for too many interpretations (where five different people would give you five different meanings in the cards as with Tarot), and it's not designed for ambiguity. In short, Lenormand Oracles are designed to focus us, rather than opening us up. The Tarot evolved over a few centuries to be a tool of opening-mind and increasing the scope of what we're thinking about, while the Lenormand focuses the mind and zeroes in on specific issues. And that can be very helpful on a terrible day when a person simply can't focus. For me, this book has been the most useful guide. It's helping me to understand how to best use these different sets of cards while also helping me to better understand how my friends use this system in their religious practice, which I greatly appreciate. For me, this has been the best guidebook I've read. While it's a little long, using more words than are necessary and running longer than it needs to be, its' very complete and it's pretty easy to find what you need, with accurate chapter and section titles to help you along the way. I'm impressed with the research that went into getting this right, and I find it very helpful as a guide in using this system for self-directed therapy and getting my mind to focus.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ THIS IS THE ***ONLY*** LENORMAND BOOK YOU WILL EVER NEED! WONDERFUL!
*by L***N on May 15, 2014*

* NOTHING IS missing in Rana George's book!!! It is EXCELLENT! She brilliantly covers EVERYTHING in a very easy to understand style. You will love how QUICKLY you will learn to read Lenormand cards because of reading this book. This author goes into explaining the GT in a way that EVERYONE CAN read it easily!!! What could be better than that? All of her other many spreads and methods of reading them are very clear and they do work! I love the way she explains the meanings (for each and every card) regarding questions about EVERY category of life. Here are the categories she covers 'with EACH card' showing how the meaning changes: Future, with the woman or man cards, work, love, health - body - and Spirit, and money. Then she offers the following (for each card): Advice or action, Orientation (negative, positive, and neutral cards). She also shows (for each card): Objects and areas (a physical place or location). Then she follows up with a personal experience (story) she has had for each card. Very interesting and enlightening. And if that isn't enough information on each card, she then explains how each card fits into the GT and about how it would affect and change the meaning of the card, when certain cards that are positive or negative, are surrounding it. She even teaches her unique spreads that she has used in her many years as a pro reader. They are really quick good spreads! I especially love her 'decision' spread - excellent. The author explains how to work with combination cards. Also explains the Lenormand 'houses' and 'chaining' of houses. Appendix A has the complete timeline and history on the life of Mlle Lenormand - very interesting for sure. In her Appendix B ("Focus Cards") shows you which cards you can pick to represent your question - valuable. In her Appendix C has a quick and wonderful "Interpretation Guide" with the main keywords for each card. Appendix D is also a quick keyword guide for the positive, negative, and neural cards. There are even more helpful subjects in her appendix sections, such as using Lenormand cards with Tarot cards, etc. but my review is quite long enough now - plus I think you get the picture about what a great learning book this is! And it is the BEST book out there so far AND THE ONLY ONE YOU WILL EVER NEED ON LENORMAND... get it and try it! If you get them all and then you compare them, you will see that I am right - it IS the best!
