Stork

Stork: meaning

In Lenormand, the cards speak to one another. One symbol opens a theme and its neighbour expands, specifies or transforms it. Follow the line from left to centre, then centre to right: the order gives the reading rhythm and meaning.

Stork: interpretation

Which habit is changing, and what concrete support would help adaptation?

History and inspiration
