Under the Roses Lenormand – Whispers among the roses
Step into a world of delicate beauty and whispered secrets. Under the Roses Lenormand is an atmospheric and refined 40-card deck that invites you to uncover hidden truths and silent messages.

About this Deck
The Under the Roses Lenormand captures a unique "vibe" that is both vintage and timeless. The soft, monochromatic color palette allows the reader to focus on the symbolism without being overwhelmed by vibrant colors, making it an excellent choice for deep, meditative work. While it honors the classic 36-card Petit Lenormand tradition, this deck expands the possibilities by including alternate versions of the Child, Gentleman, and Lady cards, making your readings more flexible and inclusive.
Symbolism and Themes
The illustrations are delicate and detailed, designed with an eye for the poetic. Each image is iconic and instantly recognizable within the Lenormand system, yet infused with a warm, elegant touch. The themes revolve around the Victorian "Language of Flowers" and the hidden meanings found in everyday objects. It is a deck of secrets, reflections, and the quiet revelations that occur when we look closely at the "roses" in our lives.

Katrina Hill
This deck was born from the creative synergy between mother Kendra Hurteau and her daughter Katrina Hill, a skilled graphic designer and digital illustrator.

Under the Roses remains one of their most beloved contributions to the cartomancy community.
Practical Use
The cards are intuitive and accessible, allowing for effortless interpretation whether you are performing a quick three-card spread or a complex Grand Tableau. The included 60-page booklet provides essential keywords for each card and guides you through traditional Lenormand techniques, ensuring you can apply this age-old method in a modern, personal way.
To deepen your connection with the deck, try laying out the Grand Tableau and looking specifically at how the sepia tones create a visual "flow" between the cards, highlighting the most important connections in the seeker's life.
