The Language of Lenormand: Interview with Erika Robinson

Your Archetypal Tarot Podcast Host, Cyndera Quackenbush here!
After spending decades with the Tarot, I find myself still tapping all their mysteries and layers of interpretation. Here and there, the Lenormand started to tap at my window and I got curious what this divination system was all about.
I got my first Lenormand deck years ago, and drew my first card (a practice I later learned was not suited to Lenormand readings). What card did I get? The Coffin. Not long after that the pandemic began. Life (and death) happened…

It wasn’t until I came across Lenormand expert Erika Robinson, that I was introduced properly to this method and how it could be used for readings.
This podcast unveils Lenormand for all listeners and Erika even gives me a reading on the show! Her warmth and clarity is stunning.
Here are a few of my takeaways from our conversation:
-
As the title of Erika’s book suggests, Lenormand can be seen as a language of divination. The way the cards work together in a spread is like interpreting a sentence, or (my favorite thing) telling a story that speaks to your question. Who better than Erika, long-time English teacher and writer, to break this down for us?
-
Cards are rarely picked for 1-card readings. Cards are best interpreted in relationship to each other in a spread.
-
There is a beautiful simplicity inherent in the Lenormand. Meanings can be memorized and fortunes told even with a regular deck of playing cards.
-
Erika is just a wonderful person - fun to chat and connect with! Her reading was insightful and dead on.
