The Book lenormand card combinations shown below are read from left to right. In most cases the focus card of the Book is read as a noun, and the paired card is read as an adjective (or sometimes a verb) which is what gives meaning to the Book card. Read together they provide a little sentence that is used in a reading. In this post we give an example of how to read the combinations.
