Tarot Interactions: Become More Intuitive, Psychic & Skilled at Reading Cards
Designed for both beginners and advanced students, Tarot Interactions transcends the card-by-card approach and asks how the principle of interaction can bring reading the cards to a new and more intuitive place.
For the student of Tarot who knows the cards, but feels like there's further to go, Tarot Interactions offers lessons on: psychic ability, understanding patterns, how pairs of cards interact with each other, how a card interacts with its own position in a layout, understanding layouts as a whole, using language and storytelling to deepen a reading, and interacting with querents.
These lessons offer even the advanced student a sense that the cards can be more than the sum of their parts. Tarot Interactions is designed to take the student from good to great, from understanding to experiencing. It is a tool to stop reading the Tarot and start interacting with it, or to read it, not like a series of road signs, but like a story, or a poem, or the lyrics to a song.

This book was received as an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Unfortunately, the first thing that stood out to be were issues with her credibility.
I haven't read any of Lipp's works before this one, so I don't know if this is a normal thing for her, but I found the repeated mentions of having been married to Isaac Bonewits to be... banal. It was almost as if she was teaching to him to lend some kind of credence to the fact she was writing a book on the Tarot and veering away from her normal fare of books on ritual and Wicca. Having to rely so heavily on another immediately takes away from an author's ability to stand on their own - as is the case here.
There are also certain things that she took credit for, that have been floating around the Tarot community for a number of years. I understand she has been reading Tarot, and teaching it for quite some time but the fact remains that certain things have long lost any capability to be traced back to any specific time or person. Many elements she claims as her own are nothing new to the seasoned Psychic, and it seems highly pretentious of her to try and claim them.
The problems didn't stop there... Is her mind still in the years she was married to Bonewits?
The book reads very old. A lot of the notions and thought patterns that were mentioned aren't nearly as prevalent as Lipp would have us believe. Long past are the days of TV psychics, while intuitives and mediums have followers numbering in the millions. Ever heard of Theresa Caputo? Yeah, she has her own show called Long Island Medium. It's in it's 7th season, and her fans actually take her seriously!
I'm hoping some of the issues I encountered in continuity were due to the fact I was reading an ARC.
I really, really hope someone over at Llewellyn was paying attention before they put this book to print. There were quite a few areas where Lipp referenced something from "earlier" or "above" that just... wasn't there. Not to mention, when specific so-called facts are mentioned, there needs to be a cited source. I don't care if there's a bibliography. If there's no direct reference to where a date or number comes from, it completely invalidates the claim.
So, what did I enjoy, exactly?
Her approach to meditation was, I think, one of the best parts about the book. Due to some strange fluke, I've always had a hard time meditating, along with everything else that goes along with it. Blame my ADD, but as that has recently changed, I can truly appreciate the need to really be expansive in your search for a meditation practice that actually works for your specific physiology and psychology. Meditation is not a "one shoe fits all" practice, and Lipp clearly acknowledges this. Her approach makes it less scary and more accessible to people who may have struggled with it before, while giving them a unique approach to consider for themselves.
Lipp also makes some very good points regarding trust - both our trust in ourselves, and our clients trust in us. So often we allow our own instincts and intuition to be overridden by our clients reticence. The example she gives is if we were to tell her a name for her aunt she had previously been unaware of. To her, the "client", we would not be telling the truth, even while our intuition was telling us otherwise. I feel the point she was trying to make here is that, it is up to us to speak the truth, not just the truth the client thinks they want to hear. If we are conduits, we tell the client what they need. It is their job to take the information we give them and do something with it.
Would I recommend this book or not?
As I read further into the book, exploring the ways she gives to learn the cards, how they interact with each other, the spread, the environment, and just about everything else under the sun, I was reminded of a book I'm actually working through right now, written by a very highly acclaimed Tarot expert. Next to what I am already exploring, some of the exercises Lipp recommends seem... shallow.
Couple that with the fact Lipp is clear early on that she is mostly referencing her own experiences, and interpretation of books, that takes me back to the beginning issue I had with her credibility.
I fully believe in supporting authors when support is warranted. There is some good information in this book, if you can get past the banality of it's presentation. Having already gone through the book, if I were to receive it as a gift, I would likely return it in favor of something less contrived and written by someone who could stand on their own two feet without having to rely on anyone else's name but their own.
Two stars for having usable information, but the presentation was all wrong.

Goes through a variety of different ways of reading Tarot, as well as some different spreads, VERY detailed and in-depth spreads and interpretations, some psychic tips, and also some personal stories of the author's readings as well--with names changed, of course.
Overall, for those looking to further their Tarot practice past just the basics and really get in touch with their own inner "psychic child", I would definitely recommend this. Tarot card meanings are also included at the back of the book as well, though I would recommend finding a "Tarot for beginners" book first for those who are just starting out.
All in all, a lot of great insights here, and included are check-in questions as well. Format and layout is very appealing, and there's a lot of freedom for open interpretation as well. This is a book catered to the comfort level of the reader, so even for those who are hesitant and wondering how much to take in from an "advanced guide", don't worry: you can read this book at your own pace (as I did, over the period of a year and a bit), and take just what is useful to you.
A very useful guide overall, fully recommended for Tarot practitioners! A definite re-re-re-reread for met in the future!

One of the best books on Tarot that I've read in a long time. So many are for beginners or people just wanting quick answers. This book had So much information and some really great ways to expand your knowledge, even if you are a long time reader of Tarot. I LOVED the ideas of games to play with them. Such a wonderful book!
Highly recommended!

I liked the book, but as a beginner in tarot, I think it's a bit beyond me. Perhaps when I've learnt some basics I'll read it again.
The thing I liked most about this book is how it opened my eyes to some things I never knew you could do with tarot. It helped me to appreciate the subtle complexities and the wide range of tarot interactions. I guess the author delivered what was promised. I think this book is suited to intermediate to advanced level

There were several great takeaways including the Vitruvian Man layout, but overall I just didn't jive with her drama llama negative nancy card interpretations (particularly reversals) and disdain for the therapeutic use of tarot.

Disclaimer: I received an eARC of this book through netgalley in exchange for this review.
Deborah Lipp’s Tarot Interactions takes readers, new and advanced, through the various ways they can read and build relationships with the tarot. When I first saw this book for review on Netgalley I expected to see a tome on relating the cards to one another. A dictionary reference on building meaning for two, three, or four cards in a reading. If that’s the type of book you want, this is not for you. Instead, Lipp brings readers an interactive way of learning tarot.
Tarot Interactions posits that every bit of using a tarot, from honing your psychic skills using the cards to reading for clients is an interaction. Each chapter discusses a unique view of an interaction using tarot cards. My favorite chapters were the Psyche, Patterns, and Language chapters because they take tarot on a personal level; reminding us that readings begin with learning patterns and seeing how the cards interplay with one another and the client; and the language and stories the cards tell us.
What I liked: This was a great workbook for readers. Lipp’s writing is smooth and easy going and it’s written almost like the reader is in the room with her. There are many exercises that make reading this book in a group setting very easy to do. She even includes answers to her own questions to use as good jumping off points. I also liked how each chapter builds and guides you into the art of tarot reading on one another. There are also some good appendices on her tarot meanings and other good info.
What I didn’t like: I had some issues with some of the example stories. Sometimes there seemed to be inconsistencies between the spread graphics and what was written. I also thought the book was too short. (Not REALLY an issue but I really liked her instructional style and wanted to have more from her.)
Bottom Line: If you want to develop long-lasting relationships with your decks and learn how interactions play in your tarot readings then Tarot Interactions is for you.

[4.5 stars] When I started this book, I thought it would be about interpreting tarot cards in combination, rather like reading Lenormand cards. The cover art, which shows the figures in the Knight of Cups and Strength reaching out to each other, reinforced that impression. It turns out the book is about, well, interacting with the tarot, and that can mean several different things. So the chapters on looking for patterns in the cards, how the cards are affected by the spread, and how they interact with each other were the types of things I was expecting. But Lipp also talks about using tarot in combination with other disciplines like astrology and the Kabbalah, becoming more psychic, interacting with querents, playing games with the tarot, and learning the grammar of tarot. Each chapter ends with homework and exercises, to put its lessons into practice right away. There is an appendix of basic card meanings, but the author assumes you already have some experience with the tarot. Bonus: the techniques Lipp discusses also work with other oracles, which is good because there's usually not much out there beyond the book that comes with an oracle deck or stones or whatever.
I especially liked the chapters on patterns, layouts, the interactions between/among cards, and language. That's half the book, and I liked the other half too, just not as much. So yes, I'm recommending the book.

Great Tarot Book
I love this book because it taught me more about how cards interact with one another in a spread. She also taught some new tarot spreads. This is a goyd book for people who already tarot reading experience.

Deborah Lipp’s Tarot Interactions promises to elevate your Tarot practice from good to great, but unfortunately, it falls short on delivering anything truly transformative. Instead of guiding readers to become more intuitive or skilled, the book feels repetitive and lacking in real substance. Lipp’s central premise—focusing on how cards interact with each other and the spread—could have been interesting, but her explanations are so shallow that they end up feeling like filler rather than the deep insights you’d expect from a guide aimed at taking your readings to the next level.
One of the biggest problems is that the content often feels padded out. There’s a lot of buildup about moving beyond a “card-by-card approach,” but when she finally gets into the techniques, it’s mostly just variations of what most readers are already doing. Pairing cards, understanding positions—these aren’t exactly groundbreaking ideas, and Lipp doesn’t offer any fresh perspective on how to apply them in a way that feels intuitive or unique. The exercises, meant to push you to think creatively about how the cards relate, come across as more basic than innovative. I found myself skimming through sections, hoping for that “aha” moment that never really came.
Lipp’s writing also tends to overcomplicate simple concepts. For a book that’s supposed to encourage a more fluid and interactive approach, the explanations are dry and overly analytical, stripping the cards of the mystery and emotional resonance that make Tarot readings come alive. Instead of inspiring me to see the Tarot as a dynamic conversation, the text made the whole process feel like a technical exercise—one where I was constantly being told what should be happening instead of actually experiencing it for myself.
Her attempts to address psychic development and intuitive skills are especially disappointing. Rather than offering concrete techniques or personal insights, these sections are thin and generic, full of vague advice about “trusting your gut” without ever showing how to build that trust. For a book claiming to help readers become more intuitive, there’s very little focus on nurturing those abilities in any practical or meaningful way.
Tarot Interactions ends up feeling like it’s trying too hard to sound advanced without actually saying much. It’s a frustrating read because it keeps hinting at deeper layers but never gets past surface-level observations. If you’re already familiar with Tarot and looking for something to truly elevate your practice, this book won’t offer much you haven’t seen before. It’s like being promised a gourmet meal and getting served plain toast instead. Save your time and look elsewhere for a guide that genuinely deepens your connection to the cards.

Tarot Interactions by Deborah Lipp promises to elevate Tarot reading by focusing on the concept of interaction over a rigid, card-by-card interpretation, yet it falls short in delivering the depth it suggests. Lipp explores some interesting ideas about how cards interact within a spread and offers insights into storytelling techniques, but the overall content feels more basic than anticipated for a book aimed at both beginner and advanced readers.
While there are a few useful tips on pairing cards and noticing patterns, many of the exercises feel like they only scratch the surface, leaving experienced readers wanting more substance. The book’s structure, which hops from one concept to another, can also feel scattered, making it hard to follow as a cohesive guide for improving one’s practice.
For a reader just stepping beyond beginner-level Tarot, this book might serve as a decent refresher. However, if you’re hoping for a transformative approach to Tarot, Tarot Interactions might disappoint, as it struggles to go beyond familiar advice into genuinely new territory.

Tarot Interactions is a fantastic resource for anyone looking to deepen their tarot practice. As someone who’s been reading tarot for a while, I found Deborah Lipp’s approach refreshing and insightful. She moves beyond the basic card meanings and dives into how the cards interact with each other, which really helped me see my readings in a new light. The lessons on psychic ability and storytelling added so much depth, making each reading feel more like a meaningful conversation than just interpreting symbols. I especially loved the sections on understanding patterns and interacting with querents—they’ve already made my readings more intuitive and engaging. The only reason I’m giving it four stars instead of five is that a few sections felt a bit repetitive, but overall, it’s a brilliant guide that takes your tarot skills from good to great.

This is a must read!
When you've learned the meanings of the cards and you're ready to take your tarot to the next level, this is the book. If you're looking for a book that is going to tell you the meanings of the cards, there are plenty of other books for that (although this has some of that too). When you're ready to make the cards come alive for you, this is your book. It doesn't focus on the generic meanings. It focuses on how the cards interact with each other. This is a must have for your tarot shelf. I highly recommend it.

Un gran libro. Me encantó que no se enfocó en definiciones sueltas como casi todos los libros de tarot sino que la autora enfatiza en desarrollar las habilidades psíquicas; entendiendo el término como la capacidad de fluir con las sensaciones a través de las cartas, las miradas, direcciones y relaciones entre las cartas en una tirada. Un libro que vale mucho la pena tanto para principiantes (necesitarás también un libro con definiciones) como lectores avanzados de tarot.

Did I like this? Hell yeah!
A lot of books on tarot I pick up are blah blah - regurgitated rhetoric.
This one nudged and pushed me to look through different eyes to see the obvious.
A surprising treat.

One of the best tarot books out there. Tarot Interactions is one of those books that fill the gaps when it comes to developing interpretative skills. One of my must-haves and most recommended books on the subject.

Brought some things like patterns and movements to my attention. But I'm not necessarily sure it's a good "beginner" book like S. thought.

This book is AMAZING and will be one of my favorite and most used references.
I trust Llewellyn Publications to produce quality works, but this book exceeds my wishes.
In clear and patient examples this book is wonderful for users of any level as well as interesting for casual skimmers and readers.
From basic concepts and practices to exercises and games to assist the reader to develop one's own style and strengthen intuition, everyone will learn much from this resource.
The author gives excellent advice on language to use with a querent.
The additional resources mentioned are well accepted and useful to have listed in one place.
The appendixes alone are worth more than the price of this book.
I can not say enough about how wonderful this resource is as a whole.
I did receive an ecopy of this book from Netgalley but will buy a hard copy for my personal collection and use. This also makes a gift that will make you popular.

Just so you know, I hardly ever give a book 5 stars. But this one is definitely worth it. It give you key words, key phrases, but that's not the meat of the book. The meat of it is how to find patterns. Definitely worth the price of admission for the easy-to-incorporate layouts (just a few spreads, not a whole lot, which is good), the key words for the patterns, and the idea of looking at a card reading as a story, not just a reading. For a writer like me, that validates how I've been reading cards with the Celtic Cross layout these last 20 years.
This book definitely deserves high praise.
