Osho Zen Tarot 61. Postponement

Postponement

Postponement is simply stupid. Tomorrow you will also have to
decide, so why not today? And do you think that tomorrow you will be
wiser than today? Do you think that tomorrow you will be livelier than
today? Do you think that tomorrow you will be younger than today,
fresher than today? Tomorrow you will be older, your courage will be
less; tomorrow you will be more experienced, your cunningness will be
more; tomorrow death will come closer--you will start wavering and
being more afraid. Never postpone for the tomorrow. And who knows?
Tomorrow may come or may not come. If you have to decide you have to
decide right now. Dr. Vogel, the dentist, finished his examination on a
pretty young patient. "Miss Baseman," he said, "I'm afraid I'm going to
have to pull out your wisdom teeth!" "Oh, my!" exclaimed the girl. "I'd
rather have a baby!" "Well," said Dr. Vogel, "could you make up your
mind so that I can adjust the chair?" Make up your mind. Don't go on
postponing infinitely.

Osho Dang Dang Doko Dang Chapter 8

Commentary:

The woman in this picture is living in a gray landscape, full of
unreal, cut-out clouds. Through the window frame she can see colors and
light and aliveness, and although she would like to move through the
frame--as we can see by the rainbow colors appearing in her
garment--she can't quite manage to do it. There is still too much
'what-if?' activity in her mind. Tomorrow never comes, they say, but no
matter how often it is said, it seems that most of us tend to forget
the truth of it. In fact, the one and only result of postponing things
is a dull and depressing feeling of incompletion and 'stuck-ness'
today. The relief and expansiveness you will feel once you put aside
all the dithering thoughts that are preventing you from acting now will
make you wonder why you ever waited so long.

You were born during a Full moon

- what it says about you -


You've spent your life in the middle of things, whether it's between people who oppose each other, ideas that oppose each other, or places that are very different. You're very aware of perspectives outside the norm and good at anticipating how different people will see a situation. You value second opinions, because they give you a feeling of balance. You don't have a single group of friends and the people you spend time with may not have a lot in common with each other.
