When you have a specific question you want answered, try this “simple situation” layout.

Step 1- remove your card from the deck.
If you are a female, Lenormand Lady or Zigeuner, Art Deco, Beidermeier, Sweetheart
If you are a male, Lenormand gentleman or Zigeuner, Art Deco, Beidermeier, Lover

Step 2- place it in the YOU spot.
Step 3- shuffle the cards, and think of your question, this layout is good for specific questions although a general will work OK
Step 4- spread the cards in a fan face down
Step 5- pick one card place it in the SITUATION SPOT
Step 6- pick another card place it in the NOW SPOT & pick another card and place it in the NOW SPOT.

TIP- you can put the cards in step 6 in either of the NOW SPOTS, doesn’t matter which is first.

Step 7- select one more card and place it in the OUTCOME SPOT.

OK you are done. Look at the cards and start blending the meanings. I will include an actual reading using this “simple situation layout”, a little later.

SITUATION spot should detail what’s on your mind, your question.
2 NOW spot will give you more information as to what is going on with regards to your question or situation
OUTCOME spot will give you a peek at what will probably happen.
