[Opinion] Why is so important to initiate with the tarot deck you using?

Everyone's got one.

I am just asking the results and importance of this practice.
Tarot much like people, start with conversation. In my experience with all kinds of cards its best to feel them out before you actually use them, much in the same way that you would with people. You wouldn't ask a random person whose name just so happens to start with the letter A to help you with a break up, nor should you use a deck you virtually have no understanding of to accomplish the same goal. Sometimes a particular card is what throws a wrench in the working due to the deck's art not meshing with your mental state at that time. Other times your bestest friend is so preoccupied with their life that they simply just can't help you.

Initiating with the deck not only helps you understand their story but in turn, helps you see things in a clear yet distinctly different light! You don't have to do it but it certainly helps.
