"YOU MUST CARRY A CHAOS INSIDE YOU TO GIVE BIRTH TO A DANCING STAR." --Nietzsche
Pulled from the Osho Zen Ta'rot deck (that sits on my most beloved altar) today
(which was recently bequeathed to me, on my 34th birthday, from the lovely
and amaZing Devi Kirn):
"BREAKTHROUGH" (the Jack, or #11, card in Major Arcana)
"To transform breakdowns into breakthroughs is the whole function of a master...
It is the great adventure in life to go through a breakdown consciously. It is the greatest risk because there is no guarantee that the breakdown will become a breakthrough....Your chaos is very ancient - for many, many lives you have been in chaos. It is thick and dense. It is a universe unto itself...Meditation is the method which will help you to go through the chaos, through the dark night of the soul, balanced, disciplined, alert.
The dawn is not far away but before you can reach it, the dark night has to be passed through. And as the dawn comes closer, the night will become darker."
"All of us occasionally reach a point when 'enough is enough.' At such times it seems we must do something, anything...Allow yourself to take the risk of shattering old patterns and limitations that have kept your energy from flowing. In doing so, you will be amazed at the vitality and empowerment this Breakthrough can bring to your life."
YESSssssss!
For all of us who are on the path
to our own Hero's Gold!
