The Kipper Connection cards are 03- State of Marriage, 04 Convene and 30 Court Official and 31 Short Illness.
These cards help one to make combinations and function as a plus sign. The main meaning of a connection card is not dropped. It remains the topic of the combo, so cards flanking 03 speak of a specific relationship; those flanking 04 Convene speak of an association or a group with which the MC is involved. The cards next to 30 Court Official/Officer give details of two elements involved in a conflict, just as the cards next to 31 describe a short illness or an affair depending on the cards connected and of course the query of one’s client!
Connecting cards form links/combos and provide more details.
The key to Kipperkarten is the same as other Oracular systems, the reader works with the cards on a daily basis as a self-diagnostic tool (mirror) until they’ve made a strong connection with the “current” or the Spirit of the deck.
It helps to journal the process along the way as it takes a couple of turns of the Wheel before things click or the Spirit of the deck acknowledges your demonstrated commitment and chimes in on reads for yourself and clients.
I have been acquainted with Kipper cards for a while. I first blogged about them in the form of the Mystical Kippers in 2012, when taking a break from Lenormand studies. When I took three courses for certification from the World Kipper Association in 2016-2017 the Original Kipperkarten deck was used. From Spring 2017 until the present I have made it a habit to use that deck daily.
Kippers are the best Oracle deck I’ve used and I have handled many forms of Cartomancy in many years of reading.
