"Every level of Kipper reader will find this deck a gateway to understanding the nuances of the Kipper system and will be predicting life events with ease."



The first color-coded deck presents simplicity in the nature of the narrative and directional cues at first sight. 

The cards are printed on good card stock, making them easy to shuffle. The images are simple and the selected colors are mild, not overbearing. I love how the main character cards stand out in the readings.



The author mentions the complexity of the "Grand Tableau", but only goes into short details of how the colors can help you better understand the system. However, you will find it easy to find information on this spread online. Here's a quick overview of how it works @ Stefan's Cards.

"A "Grand Tableau" highlights where clusters of color can be found, and allows the reader to find storylines at first glance, using the red Stop cards as punctuation. Clusters of color emphasize troublesome or stale areas within seconds, and movement is clear to the naked eye."

The guidebook gives an overview of the color-coding of the cards, such as many red cards in a spread show a stalled situation. The main characters are the most important cards in the deck. The author gives explanations on how to use them to get the best readings. The rest of the book is devoted to the separated color-codes and the cards included in each division.

For example, the Green cards are People in your reading. The people can represent a person in your life, but they can also bring their aura into the reading. The Rich Gent's presence in your reading can go from good guy to rival depending on where he lays next to the main character. His aura brings a sense of finances, investments, and ambition.  


Red cards represent stop signs, the end of a sentence in the reading, or a slow-moving situation. Blue cards show change and movement. The Pink cards are connectors to the situation of the reading. Yellow cards show cause and effect. These are the cards that show challenges.

Each card is given a two-page description, including: Card image and title, a short phrase, an overview, Imagery, Placement, Daily Advice, Positive and Negative Meanings.

After all the cards are explored, the author gives advice on setting your intentions and shares two spreads, followed by a conclusion section.

Will this product make you a Kipper expert? Probably not, but it will help assist your journey.

I recommend this deck to anyone interested in learning the Kipper system. The color-coded cards will help you navigate the Kipper journey a little easier. 

Just remember these are not Tarot cards. The Kipper deals with the day-to-day life, not the spiritual side of things.
