Summary: The Woman card is one of the significator cards in the Lenormand deck, representing a real person. If the querent is female, this card often represents themselves. Otherwise, it symbolizes an important female figure in the querent’s life. Its meaning is heavily influenced by surrounding cards.
Note: - The interpretation of femininity (*) depends on the querent’s personal definition. - In some Lenormand variations, ♀ Venus and ♂ Mars symbols were used for gender representation. However, in the Akashic Eye Lenormand, Mars corresponds to the Woman card and Venus to the Man card due to their respective associations with experience, emotion, resilience, and self-transformation.
Alternative Meaning: - When using "Person" instead of "Woman," the gender connotation is removed. - If two person cards appear, nearby cards help determine their identities.
