Today’s reading (for the UK, currently in unprecedented governmental meltdown) comes courtesy of the Gilded Reverie Lenormand deck, which includes additional cards to the standard Lenormand 36.
Crossroads: Options & Choices
Magnifying Glass: Look Closer
Time: Timing, Time Factors
Clouds: Gloom & Uncertainty
Whip: Struggle, Strife, Hardships
Issues of Time and timing are at the centre of the reading. It can also just represent a specific period or phase things are going through.
Around this, mirroring the cards first of all gives us tough and difficult and possibly forced choices , being pushed down a road (Crossroads-Whip), and a situation of gloom and uncertainty that is under examination and scrutiny (Magnifying Glass-Clouds) during this period. It may also be suggesting it’s time for an election.
Reading the cards from left to right, we have:
Crossroads-Magnifying Glass: Look closely at the options or the possible routes to take
Magnifying Glass-Time: It’s time to look closely, a time of close scrutiny, to examine details.
Time-Clouds: A gloomy and uncertain time.
Clouds-Whip: The uncertainty, confusion and gloom is causing real hardship, as well as strife.
There are tough choices to be made, around a time of gloom and uncertainty, a mess which is under close scrutiny at this time. Options and routes will be looked at closely, a time to look carefully at the details, but the outlook is not looking good right now, with the gloom, uncertainty and confusion causing real hardship as well as infighting and strife.
