Osho Zen Tarot

[Amilee]

Just got some new tarot cards. I love them simply for the visual and they really will help me give more accurate readings...however the man is a Cult Leader and I feel kinda guilty for putting money into somthing like that.

The man even put HIMSELF into the darn Major Arcana!! I mean WHO DOES THAT?? Whoooo???

:rant:

Bah! But anyway I didn`t buy them for him or his preaching in the book that comes with it. The cards are the only ones that called out to me in the hundreds of card decks I`ve seen. I`m very happy I bought them...

But quite dissappointed that someone would put themselves into the cards. What an egotistical....well, you know the rest.

Actually, funny you should mention...

In the Ancestral Path tarot, the artist has herself performing a tarot reading as the Fool. :)

Bagwan Shree Rajneesh (calling himself Osho after fleeing the U.S.) was always about power and control and ego. Everything to do with cults, very little to do with Zen.

The mans been dead since 1990.

I took one look at him and was like. Crap, this guys a psycho! Obviously. But I`m sticking by the cards. They`re beautiful!

Well gosh, I love the cards, and did not know about OSHO being a freak. Hummmmmmmmmm, I think I will keep it that way. He has a good book on Lojong, and I didn't realize he was a whacko. Oh yeah I wasn't gonna think of that was I.

lol. Best to keep it at the simple. Feel wierd shuffling my cards on a train in Japan...People look at me like I'm the nut job. (sigh) but gotta break in my cards. Even if they're gonna be my backups they still need to be fondled a bit.... (;o_o)b
