Angelique, of course, the first card I chose on the osho.com site was this:

11. Breakthrough

Breakthrough
 
To transform breakdowns into breakthroughs is the whole function of a master.
The psychotherapist simply patches you up. That is his function. He is not
there to transform you. You need a meta-psychology, the psychology of the
buddhas.

It is the greatest 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. It does become, but these things cannot be guaranteed.
Your chaos is very ancient - for many, many lives you have been in chaos. It
is thick and dense. It is almost a universe in itself. So when you enter into
it with your small capacity, of course there is danger. But without facing
this danger nobody has ever become integrated, nobody has ever become an
individual, indivisible.

Zen, or 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 the dawn, the dark night has
to be passed through. And as the dawn comes closer, the night will become
darker.

Osho Walking in Zen, Sitting in Zen Chapter 1

Commentary:
The predominance of red in this card indicates at a glance that its subject
is energy, power and strength. The brilliant glow emanates from the solar
plexus, or center of power on the figure, and the posture is one of
exuberance and determination.

All of us occasionally reach a point when "enough is enough." At such times
it seems we must do something, anything, even if it later turns out to be a
mistake, to throw off the burdens and restrictions that are limiting us. If
we don't, they threaten to suffocate and cripple our very life energy itself.

If you are now feeling that "enough is enough," allow yourself to take the
risk of shattering the 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.
