Dear All

I am seeking to acquire a deck of Alchemy-Lenormand cards. These are fairly large in size and they have the following features

Left hand top has an image of a playing card
Middle top has a picture of an astrological constellation
Right hand top has one letter in bold black print
Centre image is often of alchemists but also includes allegorical characters
Bottom of the card has a triplet of oracular images

Any help would be appreciated. Please pm me with any leads, links, or advice.

Many thanks,

Dr Todd

I believe this deck is usually called, Astrological not Alchemical.

You can see some Lenormand decks here on AT, images of the astrological one are there, along with sites that are selling the deck.

At the very top right of your screen there are a list of links, click the one that says, "Decks", then use the Search or Browse All Decks.

And also Le Grand Jeu lenormand.

I bought mine here:

if that is, in fact, what you're looking for. Which is what your description sounds like to me.

But there is no ordering info. Any details would be much appreciated.

Hi DrTodd,

The link I posted above is one you can order from; although it's a US store, so the shipping is going to cost you a bit. I can't help you with the European stores, other than magicka.com, although I don't know if the shipping will be any better to the UK.

I'm glad you at least identified the deck.

You could try Alida, it's not as far away as USA.
Or, playingcardsales. They are in France, owned by a scotsman.

Ended up getting a good deal.

I love the combination of imagery and the size of these cards.

Looking forward to working with them.

Hi,

I have these cards and have just started to really study them - but i cant find any info anywhere on how to interpret the alphabet letter in the upper right hand corner?

I'm desperate to figure it out - any advice will be gratefully received!!
