I pulled these two cards together asking a general question about my Path of Life journey I started back on  Sept 8th with the Fool card. What should I know right now.....

...the answer.....

....IT'S TIME TO JUMP INTO LIFE WITH BOTH FEET !!

As some of you may know or not, I've been struggling with the idea of what to make of…

10 of Swords (Rebirth) - OSHO ZEN

We start out as delusioned camels in the mist of our peers...lacking energy after trying to appease the group with our lock-step actions and orthodox speech. We are more concerned with how we will be viewed by others instead of focusing in ourselves and our…
