Hello Lenormand Lovers!
I’d like to share with you 3 examples of using Lenormand to locate lost items.
The meanings of the cards nuance differently for lost items. The images on the cards can take on very literal meanings. The Ring card has led me to a circular glass table in the past. Coffin may mean a basement (dark) or a box or a dark closet. Snake may mean close to something like a cord, cable, hose, chain or necklace.
So let’s explore working with Lenormand cards to find lost items around us.
Sample 1
First, let’s look for a pirate treasure. Or…at least a Captain’s hat for his trusty ship!
Recently we bought a cute miniature Captain’s hat for our little dog, Finnegan. It had just arrived in the mail and we’d had a good laugh over it, as he prefers to sit in the lap of whomever is in the driver’s seat! We wanted to put it on him for our boat ride, but we could not find where we put that hat! We went upstairs, downstairs, on the boat, in drawers...nothing! After backtracking the same areas over and over and feeling frustrated, it was time to sleuth with the cards.
I took out the Lenormand cards and here is what I received:
Clover Book Key (Cards pictured are from the Silbernact Lenormand).
Clover: The first thing that came to mind was outdoors, or near a plant or garden.
Book: I have tons of bookshelves, so I thought it might be on a bookshelf, near a book, or maybe hidden behind something (secret).
Key: The tallness of the key made me think it was up high...but on what? I also wondered if it were near our key rack.
I looked high and low on the bookshelves without any luck, and then…
Here is where we found it:
The Clover told us it was near the outdoor garden and a little plant (an African violet) that I kept nearby. And it is the best view of our front garden.
The Key: The additional meaning tucked in the Key was the literal METAL-ness of the item the hat was perched on! A long, narrow spine/handle, much like the long spine a Key has! These grill tools are both metal AND long! They almost look like huge keys!
Book indicated “unseen” as we had walked by this container dozens of times yet never saw it as it was tucked in the back. So even though we looked right at it, it was hidden from sight (in broad daylight).
So when using Lenormand to find a lost object, the meanings can take on quite a literal meaning!
Sample 2
Here’s a second example:
There was a time when I was wearing my late grandfather’s wedding ring to honor him after his passing. I was borrowing this heirloom from a cousin who would be inheriting it upon his own wedding day. I wore this ring on my hand with great pride and reverence for a several years. One day, after a long commute to my destination, imagine my horror when I looked down and my finger was bare: the ring was GONE!
After searching in my pockets and looking around in a panic, I took out my Lenormands cards.
I received Ship, Garden, Clover. (Deck shown is the Blue Bird Lenormand by U.S. Games, Inc.)
Seeing these cards, I figured the ring was likely either in the parking lot near my car (ship is transportation or a mode of transportation with an engine), or perhaps inside my car. With the two cards containing plants, though, I thought, “outdoors.” Maybe on the grass near my car, with that Clover. With Ship and Garden, it seemed like a community (Garden) of cars (Ship), so off the parking lot I ran in a flurry.
Outside in the parking lot, after a quick look outside my car on the ground and then inside the car and under the seat, I came up empty. I got down on my knees and looked under the car.... and there on the pavement it sat: safe, still, shiny and strong. It had apparently rolled off my thumb and under the car onto the concrete. Thank goodness it was hidden underneath my vehicle, as someone else may have seen it and picked it up. This parking lot was located at a school full of young and curious students.
So the cards led me right to it. The Garden was the wider view of the outdoors, and the Clover was up close, on the ground, where the weeds grow (zooming in from wide to narrow). Right on the ground with the weeds. The Ship was the car itself.

Lastly, this week we had another episode.
A hearing aid was lost. We used their hearing aid location app to find the device, which was successful. After we located it, I wondered which cards would have come up. I shuffled with intention and drew cards to enhance my practice and learn from them. These are the cards I received:
Broom, Anchor and Cross (Deck used: The Silbernacht Lenormand).
Broom: This is in a dusty spot that needs cleaning or dusting!
Anchor: It is down low, and perhaps where water can go (between the shower and sink). An anchor sinks to the bottom, and this nook is a low location by water.
Cross: The shape of the cross has corners, and the nook here has a corner at the front as well. It is like an alley way that takes a 90-degree turn…just like the angles on the Cross card image.
Below is a picture of the nook where it fell, a dark nook right between the shower and the sink. The hearing aid is well camouflaged by the floor, so I circled it in yellow.
An ACTIVITY for YOUR Personal Practice:
Today, take a look around you. Find an item near where you are now. Just notice where it is.
Shuffle your Lenormand deck and ask it how it might describe that location.
Draw 1-3 cards and see where it takes you! How can you find that location through those cards?
If you’ve ever located a missing object using your cards, I’d love to hear about it!
May your readings be clear, and your lost items be led safely back to you!
Warmly,
Donnaleigh
Loved this ❤️ will definitely be trying this.
