The Crossroads: the card of choice and indecision
Known as “the Path” — or “the Paths” depending on the edition — card 22 speaks directly to the decisions and forks of a life.
It stands for uncertainty, for a phase where you face an important choice. It symbolises a crossroads where a conscious decision is needed. The dominant sense is doubt and indecision, often shadowed by the fear of choosing wrong.
Read negatively, it can point to paralysing hesitation, mental confusion, a betrayal, or a situation where you feel lost. It warns that there are pitfalls along the road and that an impulsive move could bring unwanted consequences: it is an invitation to caution and reflection.
🃏 The matching playing card: Queen of Diamonds
Every Petit Lenormand card is paired with a classic playing card. That is the double reading unique to this deck: the symbol on one side, the suit and the value on the other. One more clue to sharpen the interpretation.

Your questions about the Crossroads
Does the Crossroads announce a bad decision?
No. It announces above all the obligation to choose and the doubt that comes with it. The danger it flags is impulsiveness, not the choice itself.
Why is it sometimes called the Path, in the singular?
Both forms exist depending on the edition of the deck. The meaning does not change: what counts is the fork in the road.
How do I lift the doubt the Crossroads flags?
The combinations are telling: with the Dog a trusted ally helps you decide; with the Clover the difficult choice turns out to be a lucky one.
