Goetian said:A deck can TOTALLY hate you.
Treat others the way you want to be treated. This applies to things as much as people - if you don't take proper care of your computer, car, tarot deck, or anything else, why should you be surprised when it doesn't perform as expected?
I see mistreatment such as that a reflection of the owner. People who dont take care of their cars get in a lot more accidents because A) they're mechanical in nature and will not work correctly without mantiance B) if they dont take the care of their vehicle seriously, they proably dont take driving seriously and suck at it.
Same with people who wont take care of their computer, the parts over heat, wear down, dust causes damages, malware builds up etc.
But neither the car or the computer "hate" you. You're just doing it wrong. You need to treat your car like two tons of metal that's holding your life and the lives of others. You need to treat your computer like a thousand dollar tool that costs hundreds to repair.
I'd imagine some one haphazard with their other things would be haphazard with their deck, and not put in the time to study the deck or put any time into the readings and understanding them.
