Lenormand Oracle Cards

Deck of 36 Fortune Telling Cards

The French cartomancer Marie Anne Lenormand (1768-1843), became universally known as Mlle Lenormand, rose to fame because of her connections to Josephine Bonaparte. Marie Anne Lenormand did more than read cards as it is believed she inspired and designed this style of deck and the methods of reading them. Her original deck had 52 cards and was published around 1828. A smaller version with 36 cards is now known as the Lenormand Oracle Card Deck which is a faithful reproduction of the first deck printed in Paris. Lenormand Oracle Cards and Petit Lenormand Cards were created around 1840 in France.
Still one of the most valued cartomatic systems in the world.
These Lenormand Oracle cards shown are a reproduction of a Lenormand deck first printed in Paris in 1890. Each card is numbered with images and symbols. The card deck box is Blue in multi lingual edition that includes English, Italian, Spanish, French & German with an instruction booklet that gives the card meanings and the “gipsy method” of reading the cards according to Marie Anne Lenormand This item is New, sealed deck, unopened and in a Blue box which includes 36 Cards Card size is 6 cm x 10 cm ( 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″) Multi Lingual (English) Instruction booklet Included, card inside remain relatively the same as with other editions except with a new design on the back of each card.

The “red” and “blue” Lenormand are different editions of the same deck, with subtle differences on the face of each card including card design and colour tones. The blue appears to have a different new look design on the back of each card in comparison to the other decks.

About Tarot Oracle and Playing Card Decks
when did playing card and tarot card suits first appear?
The European playing card system first appeared in a four suit format in the late 14th Century although there is a theory that also card playing systems existed prior in Egypt at a time when sensitive information possibly religious or pagan needed to be hidden and a kind of code was required as some evidence indicates playing cards worked quite well in this way.

The four suits were portrayed to reflect the structures of medieval society at the time and it did not matter what symbol type was applied to represent them as they varied depending on the country and its culture. For example in Italy the card suits chosen are Swords, Cups, Coins, Batons and each symbol type represented or reflected were Kings, The Church, Merchants, and Agriculture. The German suits show Hawks or Bells for Nobles, Hearts for Clergy, Leaves for Citizenry and Acorns for Peasants. In the early 15th century France introduced lance points for Nobility, Hearts for Clergy, Diamonds or Squares for Merchants and Clovers for Peasants. England followed suit with the French who until then had used printed cards from Italy and Germany and the Lance points in England became known as Spades, and the Clovers were called Clubs whereas the Hearts and Diamonds remained the same.

Card divination and playing card games such as Whist, Bridge, and Rummy are from the same times when Tarot and Oracle cards were also being explored. It is believed that the 32 card deck known as a skat pack was originally made up from only four colours and four suits and began as a card game that linked Europe and Asia. Our modern packs today come from various countries and as a collector of tarot, oracle and playing cards; gypsykallista.com.au aims to offer excellent quality and varied selections of cards with traditional know how.

There are four suits that include usually the court King, Queen and Jack (Valet or Page) Cards in today’s decks. A fourth Card called the Cavalier or Knight, Knave which is between the Queen and Jack. This was replaced when the Cavalier and Page (Jack) were combined into Jack only, giving 52 cards plus Joker also known as the Tarot Fool card which was retained. As the history of playing cards developed in various ways throughout Europe over time the Major Acana was dropped from playing card decks as various playing card games increased. Playing cards and Tarot Decks have a long history with many changes over the centuries as there are card games. They make a wonderful luxury gift for young and old.
