Problem is I used a Grand Tableau but was really sort of expecting the cards of interest to pop up because I asked specifically about love.. heh.. Redundant, I know. Guess I should have used a more simple spread.. *faceslap* I will post the whole spread and hope you can help me make sense of it. I am even scared of drawing my own conclusions because I tend to look with my rose glasses on.

So..

Storks - Scythe - Garden -- Tree ---- Book --- Cross - Snake - Child
Rider -- Anchor --- Bear --- Roads - Mountain - Key -- Birds - Flowers
Clover --- Lilly ---- Mice ---- Stars ---- Ship ---- Tower - Letter -- Fish
Man ---- Heart --- Moon -- Woman -- Ring ---- Dog ----- Sun -- House
------------------------Clouds -- Whip -- Coffin -- Fox ------------------------

THANK YOU!!!!!

I know LBA is busy with exams and going through stuff... Hope someone else will help, pls?? Got very excited about the significator row lol ^_^ I will not deny that, but reading into context huuuuuuuuuuh.. difficult!

Don't sweat any of it. I recall in the beginning how I would get so tense and nervous and "over read" too much into the cards, and how most of the times I misinterpreted the meanings and got all jazzed up inside for nothing.

Take it with a grain of salt and just practice and practice. I did a reading for myself everyday in the beginning, at least once a day and over the short-long period I began to understand the cards and what they meant but still I didn't feel I grasped it overall, and I still don't have a solid hold on it, I don't think, but being here and practicing reading others has helped me to see things so much more clearly in just a day or two. I'm sure it's just a combination of things all culminating at the same time such as my perception is no longer clouded as it were when I was so bogged down with grief before, and the practice and effort is beginning to pay off, plus the energy of everyone here is a BIG help. All these things combined have helped me to see the cards more clearly.

I'm still a novice, or a "noob" as I've seen Novembermuse and Gem_Gurl say. I'm an old dog here but I'm thinking this means "noobie" and not some acronym I'm clueless to?

My luck it means "NO Old Butt" or " NO OBligata"... LOL

Thanks for your generous compliment. That was very nice.

I will just look at basic stuff and in detail after my exam tomorrow cos i will have a lot of time on my hand after that.
last exam yaaayyyy

First of all, you did great by starting with a GT. its the best believe me, because in 3-4 GTs you will learn a great deal about cards. I started with monthly GT and believe me they have never failed me.shorter spreads will be easy after you do the GT and its a bit overwhelming in start but you will do good later. Also lenormand is tricky, I've been having it for over a year and I dedicated myself completely to lenormand and yet I find it hard to grasp sometimes.

For the GT, I need to know the question. second did you set a time frame in mind before asking.

You asked about love, so lets have a look

The four corners tell us the boundary of the GT

Storks - House - Child - Man

there is definitely a change coming, specially if you are planning on having a child. This change will be because of a man.

First three cards are what you need to know right now
Storks - Scythe - Garden
there have been some movement, relocation or a change which causes you to cut off from public, social networks etc.not socialising much, eh?

You and Man both are in same line but the Man is in your past.

Man-Heart-Moon-Woman I can see a man from past who still has feelings for you.
In future I see a friend, a man you are really attached to and you two will be having success in whatever matter is on between you two, the house is at the end so I see this is about having a home and a family.Its a great sign because you and Dog both are bound by Ring, the card of marriage, but for a time frame of 3-6 months it can be a committed relationship in which you and him both are exclusive. Don't think too much about the man in your past though.

In immediate future, Woman-ship-key-snake I see a definite move, travelling or a change in your mind state which will help you unlock some of the complexities in your life. Thing with. you may travel to see a woman, possibly mother or an older woman.

what worries me is that in the distant future, right lower diagonal, lies the Coffin. Coffin is not the good card here. you may have to suffer a loss of some kind. he Coffin is directly under Ring, not good.

Fate line or the last four cards in the GT are what is set in motion, what must happen and you cannot avoid it

Clouds-Whips-Coffin-Fox

There are problems, set backs, arguments, losses and betrayals. I do not like it at all.

Clouds - whips unclarities will lead to trouble and the kind which gets you off guard, where you have no clue what is happening. Clouds can also represent an ex-lover (King of Clubs) and it knights the Man card, so I'm suspicious its someone from past. This will lead to an ending to some intrigue in your relationships department. The Fox lies next to Dog, so this guy, in your present or future, someone you are so committed with, might not be the one he seems to be.

Man is in house of Ring so this man may be a man who is already tied up in a relationship.

You are in house of Man, so you might be thinking a lot about this guy from past.

Ring is in house of Lady and Man in house of Ring, let him go ok. you are too emotionally attached with him.

the GT looks a mix. I see someone you already know, and are attached to and you two having a great time. I'm just not liking the end of it.

You know what my GT fate line was for July?
Coffin - Snake - Scythe - Man

a complicated ending when a man unexpectedly leaves (or is cut off from).

Goodluck on your last exam!!! I am sorry that unpleasant things added up for you in this period, I know it must be tough. But I am certain you will overcome this with flying colors!

OMG, I wasn't aware of so many complexities. I know I have to read diagonals too but I am still clueless how to interpret cards in groups.

Yeah, I saw the last line too and it worried me as well.

But there is nobody from the past? I am pretty sure I tied all my loose ends with my past loves, I do not want anything to do with any of them. I had someone on my mind when asking though but not from past. I saw the Man in my past too.. and the Woman is looking at him. I charged the Man card with the person I was thinking about, but as I said, not from my past. Maybe it cross-fired because I wasn't focused enough? I did a GT but I guess I wanted it to be more like a no design spread, just to the point, answering the question. Guess that adds to the confusion in the spread, I will try to be more focused and clear next time. Guess it means I have no future with this man?

The present column is where you are right now (lady card). I also assumed you asked whats in store in love dept. Unless you ask specifically "whats in store for you and this particular guy" the cards will choose who is who.

I have another spread that confuses me. I asked who is the destined one/future husband and when I'll meet him. I got this:
