Garden and Letter in Lenormand
Garden is community; Letter is message. Read in that order, the pair says: a public announcement or invitation.
Reading Garden + Letter
Garden puts the subject in the open, among gatherings and community contacts, and Letter qualifies it as something written, announced, or documented. The social setting produces a notice, invitation, or formal message rather than mere talk. At work this could be a public event followed by an official email or paperwork; socially it is an invitation reaching a wide group, with the written record carrying the weight.
How the order works
Garden comes first and supplies the subject: the public and community. Letter comes second and modifies it: written down. Together: The public and community written down.
Swap them and the sentence changes. Letter + Garden begins with a message or document and ends with out in the open — Announcement shared with the community
