I find that the Osho Zen Tarot often gives me something to focus on. It is all stuff on the ego-mind, I recognize, but sometime the makyo involved is quite uncanny. In Japanese Zen the word makyo means, (ma- devlish) and (kyo - phenomenon or objective world). It is a distraction. Little "devils" of thoughts, ideas, ambition, achievement, entertainment that tempts me out of the present moment. Tempts me out of mindfulness. Anyway, I looked at my card which was VIII Courage.. The courage of the small seed to transform into a fragile plant with all the risk that that entails. It could be eaten or a gardener may decide that it needs to be uprooted.. Just two of many risks it would take.
So I was looking at an 8 card. Since the age of 10, I have had a weird connection with 8, always expecting something profound to come from it…
