The weirdest one I ever heard...if you bring a pre-owned tarot deck in your house, your cakes and baked goods will never rise.

Re-ordering the deck after each reading is a must.

You have to destroy a deck you don't use any more by burning it/burying it/whatever it.

You should not read the cards while you're pregnant.

You can't have more than one reading deck.

I've also read in a book that you aren't supposed to read Tarot while you're having your period, or after eating a meal (why? Am I going to get a cramp and drown?)

Cards should be drawn with the left hand, the hand from the heart!
