Here's your reading... sorry it took me quite a while, I was trying to 'thread the keywords' properly into a more cohesive story that makes sense... however, as anyone begins to learn a language, grammatical structure would be the hardest part. I apologize beforehand if things seem 'choppy' and repetitive.

This is my first time doing a GT online, I've only done a several few with my mom and friends, and I've found that it works best when there's real-time rapport between reader and querent... I could isolate keywords that would be more appropriate about the querent's situation. However, not entirely knowing what works behind the scenes also enables me to develop a better way how to work with the cards, and not be entirely biased/limiting on to what could happen.

Reading Lenormand is like being a Lawyer/Detective. You get tons of clues, chopped testimonials, and chatty (sometimes too secretive) witnesses. They all have a story to tell, it's up to you how to weave them together and defend them on court. Such a fascinating system really, so thank you for giving me the opportunity to test it out. Please do note that I'm still quite a beginner here, and I usually tackle things head on, so I went ahead and tried a GT. lol

I tried exhausting what I could see in this tableau, but if I do miss something, or if you have other inquiries/clarification, we could revisit it and ask for follow ups/reinterpret what I saw into something that makes more sense in your situation. The GT is kinda like an SR chart in a sense.

I'll post the reading below in parts, so it's more manageable.

I. Initial Impressions

The first three cards tells an advice/info, something that it will make itself known very soon, if it's not already present. Your cards were Home, Letter and Path. I think you will receive news/information regarding a decision about a house, or that the news may come from your hometown. These are akin to daily draws, kinda like a segue of sorts, so it may come of very mundanely and could be easily disregarded if not looked into it closely.

Next are the 4 corner cards. They represent the things that would preoccupy your mind or the main themes surrounding the time period, 2013. We pair them off diagonally, so we'll have 2 pairs: Home -- Whip & Mountain -- Mice. There has been a disturbance/change, possibly even an argument in your home life that has been 'stockpiling' for quite a while now, but in this year denoument will take place and things will start to look up. The home here may stand for something you're comfortable and stable with, and not necessarily pertaining to a physical house or family, so I say something that has been shaking you off of your stability the past year/s will finally start to wane. The Mice and Mountain are two notorious cards on their own, but with the Mice falling after the Mountain, it is a good thing.

There's another thing that stood out for me as I typed the last paragraph, and looking over the first three cards, and the cards that connect to them by knighting and housing, I think it tells of a house move, somewhere really far, overseas even. House -- Whip (which is also a Broom) -- Mountain -- Mice may simply indicate cleaning and packing up. (very quirky oracle system, ain't it? ) Appearing as the four corner cards, the main theme of 2013 for you, the actual important move might happen early next year, within its first two quarters. But this year will definitely be very active and busy for you. Lots of packing, short travels, are indicated. Back pains might be prevalent, be sure to take care of your health as you do so.

Normally, when a year highlights career, relationships and love life normally suffers the consequence. This is not the case. :) You will see developments in both areas, though right now career seems to gain more weight... at least for the mean time. Developments also arise in your love life, particularly from the 2nd quarter towards the end of the year. Your significator and A's significator on the second row appears to me that the second quarter of the year will be especially significant. I'll elaborate on the quarters later in Part 4. :)

You, the Lady (29) appears on the second row, with the Ring on top, and Sun -- Heart -- Child directly at the bottom. It tells me that you have control over your heart and your desires, but the idea of being in a commitment preoccupies your mind. I must say that it is a great decision to hold off for a while, as you are surrounded by favorable cards regarding love life. In fact, you are SURROUNDED by a lot of males in this reading! Gentleman, Cavalier, Dog, Lillies... Love and sexual life will definitely pick up this year. I see a friend or someone very loyal and reliable who has an interest in you, an older person (lol I know you hate this, but what can I say, you're quite popular! :D), a very active young man, and 'A', appearing as the Gentleman, who is next to your significator. Some of these qualities may also appear in a single person as well.

I know that the Dondorf/French Cartomancy deck has the Woman facing right, but I simply stick with the system where the Lady faces left. So it's quite funny that if you look at it this way, your significator faces towards 'A' and has your back turned away from the older person (Lillies), quite literally and figuratively speaking. lol

You previously asked on your thread if you're gonna fall in love with someone this year who will be able to give you the things A used to give you... I want to say yes and no. Yes, because I think you'll finally meet someone who fits the description... dependable, loyal, smart... has a clear direction in life and is in it for the long haul... on top of that, he's particularly kinky/sexual too. ;) haha so there's great potential here, and even if you don't end up falling in love with him, his appearance in your life will allow you to open up to new possibilities... you may also recognize him as he has a long term issue with his health. The 'No' part mainly comes from the appearance of A.... I see you wanting to move towards brighter changes in your love life, however I believe A will reemerge in your life once again... A visit/meetup may even be indicated here, as his significator falls next to the Cavalier. There will be confusion because of this, so if you do develop a budding relationship this year, A's reappearance will distract and exhaust you which may lead to arguments with the potential lover. I also want to say that even if A has plans on visiting you, there's a huge roadblock here and the meeting may not take place.

I also see an ending here, particularly of lies and deception, and you will reap the benefits.

IV. Year Quarters

The tableau has 4 rows (again discounting the last four cards at the bottom), and represents the four divisions for the year. Now this is not a fixed timetable, and effects might be felt on the last part of the preceding or beginning of the succeeding quarter even. Each card from the Fate Cards at the bottom in turn, represents the main theme for each quarter, or for every three months.

• IV.I. First Quarter
  
  Main Theme: Anchor - work, stability

  Continuing the first three cards we've gotten earlier, there will be news regarding a house or a property, might be from home. House being in the house of Cavalier, Letter in the house of Clover, Path in the house of Ship... if it's not a direct visit, it might be a nice parcel, something coming from afar.
  
  There's also an indication here that you might receive news about a friend's long term illness... throat problems? They've been treating it for a while now, but nothing seems to work. Advice them to take particular care of the lungs, and spend more time in nature to get fresh air... if it's not a friend, it may be you in this case... an illness/habit that 'follows you' around. If you smoke, it might be because you take comfort in it during times of stress.
  
  
  

• IV.II. Second Quarter
  
  Main Theme: Fish - money, prosperity, abundance, water, alcohol, liquid substances
  
  You will most likely hear from A, about the visit/meetup I talked about earlier... he will look for you... and it will trigger in you powerful feelings, to the point of possessiveness. however, there's something wrong here... it feels like false promises, and someone will be hurt eventually. So please take heed.
  
  
  
• IV.III. Third Quarter
  
  Main Theme: Bouquet - pleasantness, nice surprise, a gift
  
  This is probably the set time of visit from A... He looks to move away from the solitude he has set upon himself, and brings with him promises of fidelity and loyalty... New beginnings to your relationship... it looks very positive, and it will surely reignite the feelings you had for him. But you will call out on his trickery/deceit, something you've known for a while now. It will be hard decision for you, but you know you have to 'nip it at the bud' once and for all. This will cause for the meeting to not take place.
  
  
  
• IV.IV. Fourth Quarter
  
  Main Theme: Child - innocence, new beginnings
  
  The other woman's significator falls here (Snake), and it looks like things will end between A and her. His heart is definitely not with her, but with you. It looks to me that this woman is the secret he's been keeping... the one you called on on the previous quarter, as the Snake falls in the house of the Book (secrets). Active measures are being done, I'm thinking it's more about you here, not him. You might not wait for him should he not take more concrete actions to back up his words. You're moving on to new avenues, and a new (or a renewed) passionate/sexual relationship is highlighted here (Heart falling in the house of Lillies). The future is not yet set in stone, and you don't know where this is leading to, but to me the Book -- Whip at the end of the tableau seems to tell me that you are merely writing new chapters in your life. :) 2014 would be a fresh start for you.
  

There are other fascinating techniques used in Lenormand but I dunno where to categorize them. They usually add another depth to the reading, or they tell another thing about the querent.

• Using Counting by 9 and 13

  Lady -- Sun -- Snake -- Heart -- Letter -- Ring -- Key

  A smart and successful woman, someone who may have eyesight problems even, will receive a letter of love with promises of commitment and security.

It's really late where I am at the moment - do you mind if I give you feedback slightly later?

So far I can just say I'm not really looking for loyal / dependable / whatever, I'm just looking for inspiration and enlightenment, without these its everyone else's fault I can't be asked to consider falling in love lol. That's the problem with A actually because we literally used to take each other to heaven, so I wouldn't be able to forgive anyone who ever tries to claim me that they can't do the same sort of thing T_T

I will comment on the rest tomorrow if that's alright?

But reading your text has proven thoroughly enjoyable, can't believe one could be so elaborate ! x

Yes, please do so at your leisure!

Haha, I understand. I think that's just me crudely filling in the gaps. XD Though that's the characteristics I pick up on about the person. Great news is definitely seen on your love life. Heart on House of Lilies (Very sexual, pure/primal), Moon on House of Man, Man in the House of Child and Garden on House of Heart shows that he'll be a very people person. Quite young and famous actually, very out there in the public.

I do indeed have eyesight problems, just wear lenses so no one really knows

As for moving I moved to my hometown from somewhere else in November (or rather took all my stuff away from the other place to where I don't have to pay rent) but I have no wish to make this permanent so all I really want is to figure out where to go and how to make this happen, the current situation is unstable if anything.
