LANGUSTL- Lenormand

Hi Debra!

In the German Forum, they like the first version more. They say, the second version looks like a wolf. I also liked the first version. So I will take that.

It's true, and they're right, and I'm glad!

I like your first version - he is sneaking up on what he is chasing/following - he is trying not to be seen.

Jumping over the fence is too flamboyant for the sly fox!!! I love the colours that you use - so vibrant and full of life!

Thanks :), that helps me !

My pleasure!!

I have been in love with these cards for 20 years and I enjoy seeing how others use and interpret them!

Hi ;)!

It needs a little more time for me to go on with painting the cards, because I had to do with writing a booklet for the Tarot-deck and other things. But in the next days I will finish the lilies (lilys?). This symbol seems to be easy, but even the "simple" things sometimes need more time than you think.

Well, here they are, The LILIES:

It was important for me, to get the subjects sexuality, harmony and family together somehow. The Lilies are a card of compensation and equalization for me. Maybe a little like Justice from Tarot. Sexuality has a tight relationship to equalization of energy, I think. Directly in one way ;-), the other way goes through wishing the right humans to our side, what helps us to compensate and equalize each other in a family or group. The four lilies on the painting - two male, two female ;-) - seem to dance like a family, to find the right balance. Father, mother, daughter and son are also symbols for the four elements. Not everything has to take it´s right place in the beginning. The group makes compensation possible. But for a longer time, it is necessary to moove and get the right places in the end. The fire on the bottom of the painting shows the fire, that burns, before a new equalization gets necessary. It´s also the fire of sexuality.

Hi ;)!

After a few month, while I finished my Tarot, I´m able to show you the newest Lenormand card. These are th MICE. They are eating the corn, what has been harvestet in the card SCYTHE (same name in english?), corresponding with the mice. In the right corner of the painting you can see dirt and the excrements of the mice. This shows a process of energetic transformation from left to right.

Yes, in English it's Scythe.

That is a GREAT depiction of the Mice - I love it! Most people don't realise how destructive they can be. And one of the meanings for the Mice is doing exactly what you said, and what you drew - which is why farmers dread them so much.

What beautiful cards! I will be watching this thread with pleasure.

I like the fox going under the wall, it is unexpected and tricky of the fox.

It is also how Houdini performed his magic trick of "going through a wall"--the wall was on a carpet on the stage, and the carpet was over a hole.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle did not believe Houdini and insisted he had powers of materialization and dematerialization!

As for the mice, the touch of mouse droppings appeals to me. Often, we do not see the mice, but are alerted to their presence by their droppings. So it is we may not see destructive forces in action, but by the transformations they perform....like global warming.
