What kind of card is the Ring in Lenormand?

Nekosuke

The Ring is a card that symbolizes promises and contracts. It shows a shining ring, and it carries important meaning in a reading.

☾Basic Meaning of the Ring

The Ring represents every kind of promise and contract. In love, it strongly suggests marriage, a proposal, or an engagement. In business, it means a contract being signed or a partnership being formed.

The ring's round shape also represents "circulation" and "cycles." It can indicate patterns that repeat, or a flow that comes full circle back to where it started. It reminds us that we are living within a rhythm that returns again and again, much like the seasons.

When surrounded by negative cards, it can also indicate a broken promise, a canceled contract, or divorce. Look to the combination cards to determine exactly what the Ring is binding.
