Your Card

Ship

The Ship interpretation for you begins with your first thought. Ships mean such different things, to different people.

Is this a luxury cruise on the Britannia? Or is this the Titanic?

This card can be literal. What’s in store for you this summer? A cruise or perhaps a ferry from Tasmania to Victoria.

Cargo or Passengers

This is about a journey with cargo (goods or products). Otherwise, with passengers. They may be working, or on holiday.

The ship may be there for a vacation, for fishing or for war. Exploration or emigration.

What’s your question? Apply this symbol to that in a specific way, using your E.S.P. to guide you.

You might be asking about a range of cushions you are sewing for a local shop. You want to know how to make more money from your work. This card tells you – export. Ship the cushions, so to speak.

If you are engaged in a battle with a difficult former employer, this card tells you – ship in a crew. Have other people alongside you. And you are going to need a big vessel to take you all. Maybe an organisation can carry you, like a union.

Transport and Travel

Of course, most of the time, this card is about getting from A to B, taking a journey, committing to a voyage, undertaking an expedition; setting out to explore or relocate.

Things are on the move. The Ship is related to the Third House, ruled by Gemini, and the Ninth House, ruled by Sagittarius, in your astrological chart.

The Mission

There is often an ethical or moral angle to this card. Why? Because in the past, ships were used to transport convicts and slaves.

Ships sunk submarines during the last war. So, a great deal depends on the mission or intention.

Is the Ship card good or bad? It depends on the purpose of the pathway or the function of the ‘vessel’ or large enterprise concerned.

You know what it means, though. This card is about taking people somewhere, for some greater goal. Most of the time, bar an accident or attack, the mission will be successful.

Ships take large numbers. If you work in Hollywood, for example, and want to know about the best place for your acting career, you are being told to look at a film which is a vehicle for a big crew. There are no small ships.

Think about pirates, with this card. That can happen too. Or stowaways. What is this card saying to you? Your own psychic ability, which is as natural as your other senses, will help you see into the card.

Examples

If you were Sid Vicious at the end of the 1970s, seeing a psychic, and this card appeared – you would be shown a large enterprise with a crew, on a mission from A to B. You might be shown a captain, navigation, maps and so on. So much depends on the ship. Good condition or not? Saboteurs on board, or a happy crew? Expertly handled, or poorly handled? Why are you on board, Sid?

I hope you can see why one simple Lenormand card can lead to a really long discussion with yourself, or the person you are reading for.
