Product Description

A unique and valuable resource for all students and practitioners of the Tarot

Includes 22 major arcana pop-out cards from the Osho Zen Tarot

A must have for owners of the phenomenally popular Osho Zen Tarot, this in-depth study of the meanings of the cards in the Osho Zen Tarot deck will also appeal to those who use the Rider, Crowley, and other, more traditional cards. The "here and now" approach of Zen offers the insight that the future evolves out of present events, ideas, and attitudes. Playful and accessible even to the novice, this remarkable handbook includes a table of correspondences for the Rider-Waite and Crowley cards, and special sections on the meanings of the four major elements, or "suits" in the Tarot system.

Tarot in the Spirit of Zen introduces readers to a deeper understanding of the Zen approach to becoming aware of and responding to life's challenges. Just like the Osho Zen Tarot deck, with its fresh and contemporary approach, the contents of Tarot in the Spirit of Zen are of interest to anyone who is interested in self-exploration and personal transformation.

About the Author
Osho challenges readers to examine and break free of the conditioned belief systems and prejudices that limit their capacity to life in all its richness. He has been described by the Sunday Times of London as one of the "1000 Makers of the 20th Century" and by Sunday Mid-Day (India) as one of the ten people-along with Gandhi, Nehru, and Buddha-who have changed the destiny of India. More than a decade after his death in 1990, the influence of his teachings continues to expand, reaching seekers of all ages in virtually every country of the world.

A Great Resource No Matter What Deck You Use
With its table of correspondences to the Crowley and Rider decks, and its introductory material on how to use Tarot as a tool for insight into the here and now, this book is a great resource not only for Osho Zen Tarot fans but for everybody who wants to get more out of their Tarot readings. Owners of the Osho Zen Tarot deck and its accompanying handbook will appreciate the in-depth explorations of the meanings of each of the cards. And in fact, even those who are not so much into Tarot but simply interested in understanding the ups and downs of life and its lessons will find many insights and much encouragement here. And finally, the little pop-out cards in the back are wonderful! Very nice quality, glossy paper makes them very nice to use.

Integrates the Tarot with Zen
Finally, someone has come out with a book that integrates Tarot with Zen. The table of correspondences makes it so that you can use it with regular Tarot cards as well, if you can't, or don't want to, buy the Osho tarot deck. There are miniature reproductions of the Major Arcana from the Osho Tarot, which was a nice addition.

Tarot taken to a high level, the highest level.
This is a truly terrific book, not just on the tarot but on life. It stays on the point and encourages the reader to a new space, the ultimate space.
