By the way. About not leting others touch your deck. Seems to be difficult to apply. The cards are normally made somewhere with other people involved in the process of making the deck...
So not letting others touch it would avoiding tarot totally.

I think it can be difficult to read for yourself at times, but not impossible or dangerous. Personally, if I'm really emotionally wrapped up in an issue, then I find I shouldn't read for myself on that issue, 'cuz I can't read clearly. I only see what I want to see (and sometimes that means only seeing my worst fears!) In those cases I just don't get clear answers. But I can't imagine that it would be dangerous in anyway.
And good point about people touching the cards when they're made. Can you imagine some old psychic lady picking up a deck, touching her temple with two fingers, and saying, "Ahh yes. I can see it clearly.... This deck was checked for quality by Inspector #22..."
