Like everything that surrounds the gypsy people, the origin of the deck used by them is shrouded in mystery. Legend has it that this deck was developed by Frenchwoman Anne Marrie Adelaide Lenormand. Madame Lenormand, as she was known, who was one of the greatest witches in history, was born in Normandy.
Born in 1772, she became famous for her accurate predictions about the future of the French Court. According to history, it was Madame Lenormand who predicted the rise and fall of Napoleon Bonaparte. Her deck ended up being spread throughout Europe by one of the nomadic gypsy clans, who were enchanted by the perfection of the cards.
