I have found the Lenormand Cards are amazing for Yes/No Questions. They not only answer your question, but also give added information. There are a few things to consider before you proceed.
- Know your cards - The first thing you'll need to know is which cards you consider positive, negative, and neutral. For the most part, your list will be the same as others, but your view point may differ on some cards. The important thing is to follow your gut, but be aware of your choices before you begin. Don't wait till you lay the cards out to decide. You don't want the temptation to make the cards give you the answer you want.
- The question - The more specific your question is the better the results. With a yes/no question, it is very important to gauge your possible answers. You will want the answer of 'yes' to be a positive result, and a 'no' to be a negative result. Setting a time frame within your question is also helpful to get the most reliable answer.
- Number of Cards - Determine this before you begin your reading. I find that 3-5 cards work well for this type of reading.
- Reading - Once you've laid down your cards, you will count the number of positives, negatives, and neutrals to determine your initial answer. More Positives = Yes, More Negatives = No, Equal Amounts = Maybe, but yet to be determined. After you have your answer, you can read the cards to gain more information.

Example of a Yes/No Lenormand Reading
I have a confession. I've become an addict to the show - Grey's Anatomy. I'm currently in Season 6. It would be easy to sit down and run through the episodes and catch up, but let's face it, I do have a life, lol. So please no spoilers.
For my yes and no question, we turn to the characters of Grey's Anatomy.
Will Izzie Stevens return to Alex Karev?
cards produced by Carrie Paris
Positives - 4 - Sun, Dog, Key, Moon
Negatives - 0
Neutrals - 1 - Garden
With four positives and no negatives, the answer to the question is "Yes".
Now, we can look at the cards to gain more information.
Looking at the central card - Key, the yes is reinforced.
The Sun reveals this will be a successful reunion, however the Dog may suggest a change in the relationship. As they were married when she left, and her sudden disappearing act has obviously put a strain on the love relationship, they may very well reunite as friends, but not as a couple. The Moon reveals her return is more about her career than it is about her 'love' relationship. The Garden suggests social events, which may reveal the setting of her return.
Sun+Dog - the friendship survives, Dog+Key - important friend, Key+Moon - career opportunity, Moon+Garden - social career
Sun+Garden - social success
Dog + Moon - career friendships
Inserts - 1+10+8+8+8 = 35 Anchor - Security
Izzie will return, but maybe not entirely for the relationship. She needs her friends and career, which is what provides her with a sense of security.
Enjoy exploring yes/no questions with your Lenormand Deck. And if you don't have a set, the deck used here is available for free printing at Carrie Paris.

I like it that you don't stop after finding the yes or no answer but that you read what is beneath the surface of this question
Ah, it's finally making sense. Of course there would be more to the answer than a simple yes or no. I suppose the question has its own meaning.
Ellen, I started doing this when I noticed the cards were doing more than answering the simple yes/no. It's much more informative this way.
Joylene, I'm glad my posts are bringing you understanding of the cards. :)
