Lenormand Coffin Card Meaning & Combinations
8 Coffin
Quick hit: End, disease, final, sickly or literally, boxed up
Quality: Negative
Timing: Eight days, months, weeks, the eighth day of the month, August or finished, ended
Detail: This card, similar to the Death card in Tarot, rarely if ever points to death. It is more about an ending or completion. It can also represent disease or illness. It may imply shrouded or buried (hidden). More literally, it can mean boxed up.
Compare: Compare the ending of the Coffin to Mice, which represents something being eaten away.
