It may have been mentioned already, but one that sticks out in my mind is that the sitter should always shuffle and cut the cards themselves.

One myth I heard of recently:
If the Magician is on the bottom of the deck after you finished shuffling it, it means that the deck is "closed" and will not answer your question. You'll have to ask something different.

Highly entertaining thread!
Allow me to contribute a few myths I've heard among (otherwise quite skilled) French readers:
- You can only read with the Major Arcana
- You can only read with Tarot de Marseille
- Justice is 8 and Strength is 11
- You should not read with somebody else's deck
- You should not read too often or do frivolous readings
In my family, many women read the tarot and follow those old French traditions. My mother for instance is very skilled, but her reading style is very different from mine.
