Do a 3 card draw online! Gives meanings, but only for individual cards and not the combined message (as would be proper for Lenormand readings) so take with a grain of salt.
This is, frankly, insane. This is embarrassing. And the fact that these panelists said all this with their whole chest without understanding that—that we can’t answer your questions, that we will not reflect or generalize or strategize for the future, that we cannot imagine there is someone in the audience who doesn’t know the chronology of every Worldcon, that we refuse to do this labor if there’s a woman we can trust to handle it—speaks to how deep the problem goes. You, the people responsible for this: you should be embarrassed.

Reading cards in combinations is the cornerstone of the Lenormand way and is not really optional like it would be with other decks. Lenormand’s cards are stringed together like words in a sentence that flow seamlessly within a layout. That’s why the classical layouts are Tableaus where cards are read in many sentences and structures.
Etteilla (Jean-Baptiste Alliette) was a French cartomancer active in the 18th century. He was one of the first people to popularize a system of meanings for every card in the tarot deck, including upright and reversed meanings. The Etteilla system is the foundation for most divinatory tarot today, notably for the minor arcana of the famous Smith-Waite tarot deck.

On this site, I talk about cynicism, nostalgia, and digital culture. You’ll find unique digital lore here and other liminal strangeness. I want to highlight the downright weird millennial technology experience. Living through the birth of ubiquitous computing had both positive and negative aspects. I’m talking (mostly) about the 1990s and 2000s, when the internet was just beginning to take over our lives...

The Curious Travellers project explores travel and tourism in Britain and Ireland in the late C18th and early C19th. It does so through the writings of the Flintshire naturalist and antiquarian Thomas Pennant (1726-1798), and of others who followed in his footsteps. Focused primarily on tours of Scotland and Wales, the project has been funded in two phases by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and is supported by numerous partners. It is a collaboration between The University of Wales Trinity St David, Glasgow University and the Natural History Museum: you can learn more about our project team here. Our website provides access to our digital editions and other resources, blogs and events.

This ambitious public art project is presented by Scan Design Foundation, whose mission is to support Danish-American relations with a focus on environmental sustainability. NWTrolls: Way of the Bird King features six giant hand-built troll sculptures by Danish environmental artist, Thomas Dambo. The publicly-accessible sculptures are located around the Pacific Northwest where each whimsical troll sculpture is part of an underlying environmental story. The project celebrates the human experience of art by amplifying the connections of cultural heritage between Coast Salish tribal communities and Scandinavian traditions. Thanks to our funding partners and host site partners, there is no admission fee to visit any of the trolls.
