Osho Zen Tarot Card of The Week

Posted by Cindy Wednesday, August 19, 2009

INTENSITY:

It's time to find your own. Hold your own. Embrace the adventure as you seek and discover for yourself in this Present moment!

The element of this card is Fire, and it's message for you this week is intensity! He is the Knight of Fire, and his shape is that of an arrow: drawn with great and intense focus. He is moving so quickly that he appears to be almost pure energy.

Do not mistake the energy and message behind this card! His intensity is not the kind that bowls people over, or chaotically and manically barrels from one place to the next. This arrow is not horizontal, but vertical! And the message is to show up here and now in this present moment. With purpose and a magnified understanding of self.

This card also reminds us that while it is important to learn from the wisdom of others, and to honor and respect our teachers, it is more important to honor and respect out own inner voices. In fact... Zen says to to avoid those past teachings and wisdom as if they were your "deadly enemy" because it is time to find your own source, and not give a hoot what anyone else has to say about it!
You are a one of a kind individual, not a copy of someone or something else. So dare to be original!

You already know what you've been taught. Now your challenge is to discover what no other person can teach you: who you are at the very core of your being.

This week, you are called on to be courageous! Bravely set out to discover who you are and what you are about- moment by moment- and then show up without apology or apprehension! You already are pure Energy, and Intensity. Now is your opportunity to embrace that knowledge and be present with it.

"When you act with the intensity of the Knight of Fire it is likely to create ripples in the waters around you. Some will feel uplifted and refreshed by your presence, others may feel threatened or annoyed. But the opinions of others matter little; nothing can hold you back now."
~Osho
