I've Heard It Is Bad Luck To Buy Your Own Tarot Cards, Is This True?

No. It is an old myth a that your first deck must be received as a gift, or that it is bad luck to buy your own deck. For some people they would never own a tarot deck if they were to wait until someone gave them one and there is absolutely nothing wrong with obtaining your own set of Tarot cards. There are hundreds of decks to choose from in many beautiful designs and colours and by choosing your own you can be sure to decide upon a style and creativity that suits you. www.aeclectic.net is a wonderful website for Tarot enthusiasts which will give you an overview of Tarot and offers reviews and ratings of literally hundreds of tarot decks. It would be worth viewing this site before going and choosing your first. There are also a number of beginner decks such as the Universal Waite, which may be easier to begin with.
