Your Favorite Lenormand?

Chronata

I have recently become rather Lenormand obsessed, and wanting to acquire a few more of these beauties.
I think I am really loving the fact that it's an oracle, with it's own system, and not unlike the tarot...many artists are creating their own interpretations.

Which ones are your favorites? I am looking to buy another one, and would like to know which one...and why you like it!

My favorite has become the Lilac Twilight Lenormand- it is absolutely stunning!

I also love Britta's Lenormand, which is beautifully done in pastels and has just gorgeous art.

For a more traditional deck, I use my old, gilded French red owl with the poems, because it is so classy and the cards are buttery soft.

And I cannot wait for the Mysteries of Old Castle to come out- a nice gothic lenormand to play with ;)

Interesting that you should ask this just now. I was just comparing the Les Vieux Jours Lenormand (2nd ed.) and the Melissa Lenormand (2nd ed.) and trying to decide which would become my reading deck--both of these have more layers of meaning and images on the cards than other Lenormands. Still can't decide, will have to do some readings and compare!

Lilac Twilight is very beautiful, but I have to agree with Penthasilia that the Britta is very nice, and if I was going mainstream (i.e. big publisher) Oracle Lenormand (LoScarabeo).

Hope this helps!

The Postmark. The Lilac is a close second.

I like the more traditional Lenormands, but with playing card images instead of verses. My favorite is Blue Owl. Dondorf is a close second.

Postmark Lenormand, Pixie's Lenormand, Melissa Lenormand... and the forthcoming Dia de los Muertos (see thread in Tarot Deck Creation)

soooo Chronata have you thought about creating your own lenormand? })

I love the Mystical Lenormand ( http://www.lenormand-museum.com/mystic-lenormand-fortune-telling-cards.html ). The Gypsy Lenormand ( http://www.lenormand-museum.com/witches-lenormand-fortune-telling-cards.html ) is really nice as well. The Britta is quite beautiful, but you can only order to the link Penthasilia gave.

If you want a more traditional Lenormand, there is the Pianik ( http://www.lenormand-museum.com/no-194115-mlle-lenormand-fortune-telling-cards-piatnik.html ) that has pretty colors, Iris Verlag too ( http://www.lenormand-museum.com/iris-lenormand-fortune-telling-cards.html ) and the French Cartomancy by LS which is in fact a reproduction of the Dondorf ( http://www.lenormand-museum.com/lenormand-fortune-telling-cards-french-cartomancy.html ).

And I cannot wait for the Mysteries of Old Castle to come out- a nice gothic lenormand to play with ;)

I agree, I'm looking forward to buy a copy in may.

My favorites are:
Lilac Twilight
Melissa
Postmark
Le Vieux Jours

And yet I use the Magisches all the time right now. Guess I need spring colours or something.... :D

I love the Mystical Lenormand too, perhaps that is just because it was the first lenormand I bought and the only one I owned for a little while. I am also rather fond of my newly aquired Lilac Twilight Lenormand :)
