I'm quite happy to let people handle my cards if they want to so long as they don't bend them, rip them or get them dirty (so the same as any of my other belongings)..
Your cards weren't made in a vacuum so loads of people will have handled them by the time they get to you.
Could I just ask, why do you think that her energy will 'mess them up'? Is this something that you've found by personal experience or have you read it in a tarot book?
I ask because there is so much nonsense written about tarot - we even have a thread here about tarot superstitions and myths - things like 'you can't buy your own deck' and 'you need to keep your deck wrapped in black silk'.... Unless you have personal experience of someone's messing up your deck, just by touching it, I'd say this is one of those myths.
Hi Sulis...I had read it in a number of books and believed it. I guess I made a rookie mistake. Because of everyone at AT I'm beginning to realize that there really are no rules and that what I believe is what matters.(what a freedom!)
I still don't know if I will let anyone read with my cards, I'm still kinda touchy about it. But the next time someone asks I just might let them.
Actually I'm feeling rather silly now, I behaved as if I were "powerless". Well I'm now gonna take back my power, choose for my self, and not listen too much what the books have to say.
