I. The Explanation of Eight of Fire Osho Zen Tarot
The little character is moving on the road through this beautiful scene and does not care about the destination. He or she knows that the journey is the goal, the pilgrimage itself is a sacred place. Every step on the path is important. When this card appears, it indicates the amount of time it takes to move and change. It could be physical movement from one place to the next or internal movement from one way to another. However, regardless of the method, Eight of Fire Osho Zen promises that the trip will be easy and bring a sense of adventure and maturity; there’s no need to fight or plan too much.
The card of Traveling also reminds us to accept and embrace new things, just like when we travel to a new country with a different culture and environment than what we are used to. This open and accepting attitude will help us to welcome more friends and new experiences in our lives.
II. The Energy of Eight of Fire Osho Zen Tarot Based on Osho’s Teachings
Life is a continuity always and always. There is no final destination it is going towards. Just the pilgrimage, just the journey in itself is life, not reaching to some point, no goal – just dancing and being in pilgrimage, moving joyously, without bothering about any destination. What will you do by getting to a destination? Nobody has asked this, because everybody is trying to have some destination in life. But the implications… If you really reach the destination of life, then what? Then you will look very embarrassed.
Nowhere to go…you have reached to the final destination – and in the journey, you have lost everything. You had to lose everything. So standing naked at the final destination, you will look all around like an idiot: what was the point? You were hurrying so hard, and you were worrying so hard, and this is the outcome.
