One of my most helpful and inspiring guidance has come from “The Osho Zen Tarot Cards” by the Osho International Foundation. It is advertized as “The Transcendental Game of Zen.” Its introductory page says, “During the course of thirty years of talks to disciples and friends, Osho would answer their questions or comment on the teachings of the world’s great sages and scriptures.” These cards are based on Osho’s wise teachings.
Traditionally, tarot cards are used as a method of answering questions about life. It is one way to satisfy a longing to know about one’s past and future. Osho Zen Tarot cards focus on gaining a clear and insightful understanding of your events through the ancient wisdom of Zen. The Zen philosophy says that what happens in the outer world is simply a reflection your own thoughts and feelings. Asking for answers using these cards enables seekers to turn their attention from outside events to discover clarity of understanding from their innermost, heartfelt wishes.
These tarot cards suggest several sample spreads or layouts for learning answers to your deepest life questions. Connect with Spirit, choose your card layout, shuffle the cards, think of your question and run your hand over the deck to choose the cards that you are guided to draw. Doing this from time to time may give you surprisingly accurate results!
Until you decide to buy your own cards, go to the Osho site and use theirs for free. There are 9 choices or spreads to chose from for answering your question. Have fun! http://www.osho.com/iosho/zen-tarot/paradox
