Fairy Tale Lenormand Cards – September 1, 2016

This is now my second favorite set. I now have two more Tarot's by Linda Hunt on my "want" list. I wasn't sure if these would be too juvenile or off focus, but the paintings are absolutely spot on in terms of meaning. The art is just brilliant. I love the little tin that they come in. The book is not that great and a bit hard to handle, but it really isn't important. It is a very nicely printed book. It is certainly much better quality than the little white books that often come with these sets. The cards are thin, but the super high quality thin stock. I much prefer this type card stock in general to thicker ones. This set also has a surprising magical, bright energy to it even with the cards that depict a more serious theme.In terms of Wicca or Druid or Celtic...I would have to say that Linda Hunt does it the best in this regard. She has a beautiful style that does not take away from the meaning. I am an instant fan. If you are into Lenormand this really should be added to the collection. Her tarot set that is based on the same theme has a very high resale value now also. You can still enjoy that if you have access to the Apple store and apps where it is available.

I have been searching for a beautiful lenormand that would go along with other decks of mine and that is clear enough for a beginner to read! This deck is such a beautiful addition to the decks I already own! I am a beginner to lenormand and can't wait to start fluently reading it.

The Fairy Tale Deck is smaller than I expected, but it is beautifully illustrated, and I love that the images are overall true to classical Lenormand just with Fairytales. The Fairytales shown on the cards have nothing to do with the actual meanings of the cards. In traditional / classic Lenormand ... only the object presented on the card, ie scythe or tower or clouds, etc. is the meaning. And you must know what the card meanings are specifically to be able to read the spread correctly. Knowing the fairytales will not help you read the cards or know the meaning- you must know Lenormand.Lenormand is its own style of divination that is DIFFERENT from Tarot and Oracle cards and Intutive reading. In order to use the these cards to their highest potential I recommend reading Alexandre Musruck’s book to learn how to read Lenormand divination - NOT, the book included with this Fairy Tale Lenormand deck.Once you truly understand Lenormand divination, you can truly appreciate the Fairy Tale Lenormand deck.

These cards are my favorite Lenormand cards that I own. After clearing them and blessing them as you should do with any lenormand, oracle or tarot cards. I got really good readings from them. I always test out my cards first and ask questions about the people closest to me and these cards were so on point, they also told me to stay home the other day when I was planning a trip and there is a dangerous highway I'd have to take, I asked them why I should stay home and it told me I'd be in a car accident. Needless to say I didn't go. I don't use the book that came with it, I always use a book called The Essential Lenormand by Rana George. People complained about the cards being too busy but you don't read the cards visually like you do with tarot so who cares! They are beautiful cards!

I am fairly familiar with Lenormand, Tarot, and Oracle cards, and what's so awesome about them is they are all so very different in a special way. I got these as a gift for someone after loving my own deck so much. This deck was odd... it had two "Lady" cards and two "gentleman" cards. In many decks I've seen and used its one Man and one Woman card. I'm not really sure why two was necessary in this desk. The imagery was really fun and there is obvious influence of the Grimm Brothers which is so cool. My favorite was grimoire was spelled GRIMM and there was a red riding hood themed card. A note though, these cards are small and a bit thin. I've had thinner cards so these aren't like paper but do be careful not to be too rough on these. The size can be great for travel and smaller hands (like mine) but with busy artwork, it would've been cool to see them on a larger canvas and if a size comparison could be part of the listing photos.

I love Lisa Hunt and Arwen Lynch. Lisa's artwork is magical and touches my spirit on a deep level. This Lenormand deck is a workhorse and not to be taken lightly but has a light feel to it. Arwens work on the booklet is packed with delightful stories behind the artwork but keeps with the Lenormand tradition.This is a very versatile deck that can be used intuitively and not in the traditional Lenormand way if you feel drawn to do that.And the tin!! I love decks that come with a tin!!! It is beautiful and functional to help keep the deck and booklet safe. The only drawback with this deck is the card stock. I guess it is standard for US Games but I wish it was a little thicker. That is just me and it's very minor drawback.

I really love this deck. One criticism is how small the cards are. Lenormand decks are typically on the small side, however these are quite tiny and I feel the small size detracts from the beautiful artwork.

Beautiful cards, highly recommended….very accurate readings which is easy to understand. Artwork is beyond detailed, and is definitely enchanted.
