The Fin de Siecle Kipper is a set of German divination cards illustrated in Victorian style by veteran tarot artist, Ciro Marchetti. A Kipper deck is similar to Lenormand, but focuses more on people than events in its cards. This set has 39 cards: the 36 standard for a Kipper deck, plus three new additions.
It's a negative card. It tells us that you have to be very careful with the steps that are to be taken because they will surely not be the right ones and can cause problems. It also warns us that the circumstances at this time are not the most favorable to undertake any type of project or to embark on a new major challenge.
The Sad Thoughts also speak of possible deceptions and betrayals, despair, disappointment and sadness. This could be a period of depression or anxiety.
In the sentimental field, it is a card that predicts disappointments and withdrawals. It could be that one of the two parties was betraying the other with a third person. At work, the situation will worsen and serious problems with managers or co-workers will arise. In the event that the person has a society announces an upcoming deception and betrayal on the part of a partner.
After seeing the meaning of the first cards of the Gypsy Tarot, we continue to explain the rest of the cards and the interpretation that can be given to each of them.
Kipper decks, like their French counterpart the Lenormand deck, generally has 36 cards. However the Kipper deck, unlike the Lenormand deck, is primarily focused on people rather than objects and events. Each card has a number which simply lists it order in the deck, and a title which hints at the meaning of the illustration. Again, the Kipper deck differs from the Lenormand deck in that it doesn't have a lot of extraneous symbolism and correspondences printed alongside the central illustration.
However the Kipper cards are generally read in pairs, and otherwise adhere to most Lenormand conventions and layouts. Heavy emphasis is placed on the direction the characters in the cards are facing, or where the action is directed. Articles of mis en scene are important to a reading, and the placement of cards in relation to a significator is very important.
