I am new to using the Lenormand and I'm very interested in the how accurate and predictive the yes/no answers are...
The following guidelines for interpreting the answer based on predominance of card color is not mine, it's from Art of Cartomancy:
5 red and 0 black = definitely yes, the outcome is predetermined
4 red and 1 black = most likely yes, there could be free will involve, or the querent may be able to influence the matter
3 red and 2 black = probably yes, there is definitely free will involve, or the querent may be able to influence the matter
2 red and 3 black = probably no, but the querent may be able to influence the situation for a more positive outcome
1 red and 4 black = most likely no, there is small room for change, but the situation is not hopeless
0 red and 5 black = definitely no, it is not meant to be
Next technique is simply using and counting the negatives cards, neutral cards and positive cards.
I asked the Lenormand two unrelated questions this morning...
1. "Does she marry him?"
The Mountain (black), The Whip (black), The Stork (red), The Snake (black), The Bear (black)
Based on the negative vs. positive cards, I'm a little confused b/c different people consider some cards positive vs. neutral. My little book says the Whip and the Snake are neutral while other sites say the Whip and the Snake are negative. Personally and instinctively I agree with the sites, that the Whip and the Snake lean more on the negative side. But if I go by my book than the answer is maybe....
If I go with the sites positive vs negative vs neutral definition (and my own gut), than the answer is No.
If I go with counting the color technique than the answer is "1 red and 4 black = most likely no, there is small room for change, but the situation is not hopeless"
2. "Does he call me today?"
The Rider (red) (positive), The Heart (red) (positive), The Tree (red) (neutral), The Clover (red) (positive), The Crossroads (red) (neutral)...
This would be a yes using both techniques... But it's a "maybe yes" if I used the positive vs. Negative vs. Neutral technique... because it ends at crossroads.
Using the color code, it's a resounding yes "5 red and 0 black = definitely yes, the outcome is predetermined"
Any feedback or opinions or suggestions are all welcomed!
