The first thing she told me was that reading your own tarot cards is bad luck. Now, I don't really believe in "luck" at all -- things happen. They can be prevented if you are willing to make the sacrifices and decisions that are necessary. However, in all the tarot books I've read, there are no warning about how reading your own cards or looking at the pictures on your cards when you're not reading them is bad luck.

Nope-not true. There are different layouts you use when making a "quickie" type reading however, be it for youself or another.

Two things all books say are important though-
When not in use-wrap them in their cloth and keep them in a place where they won't be misused or moved about. For example-if you leave them out and you rush to straighten things up-you might put a mag. over them or toss them into a drawer.

Second-very important-You and the person you read for should be the ONLY ones to handle the cards.

As far as the bad coming back to you-never heard or read that. Sounds like some information put out there to discourage the practice.
