Spirituality, Mysticism, Life Coaching and More - Businesses in Decline

 The exception is the mega church, such as Calvary. Its membership keeps growing and new outreach programs, such as substance abuse recovery based on the bible, keep being added on.

Otherwise, many of those in the spirituality, mysticism and life coaching niches are experiencing a decline in their "businesses." Yes, for them, along with the mission, there is the matter of a fee-for-service. Standard in tarot readings is one dollar a minute.

A posting on Reddit Psychic focuses on this development. The query asks if there has been a decline in demand. There are those established businesses over the years which haven't experienced a falloff. But the rest have. Confirmation goes like this:

Live-Sherbert-6267 - " ... am a spiritual healer and coach and everyone I know in this space has seen a decline in business. " 

The reasons? Reddit posters offer these explanations:

Hard times. Essentially, as more and more pay for groceries out of savings or on credit, these forms of enlightenment represent a luxury. 

Glut. There simply are too many vendors in the space. At a recent psychic fair in Sierra Vista, Arizona there should have been a quota put on the number of the enlightened doing readings. Some wound up with not one client.

Scams. The industry is unregulated. Anyone can declare themselves a spiritual guide. Unhappy clients spread the word of "false prophets," furthering depression of demand.

Flight back to traditional religion. Youth and men are in the front lines of this movement. During these volatile times there is a unique sense of safety in "turning things over" to Jesus or some other form of a higher power.

Technology. Yes, you can click on ChatGPT for a reading. It lacks the human touch but it can provide not only information but comfort.

Will these businesses recover? The world has changed, as venture capitalist Mary Meeker puts it, in "unprecedented" ways. There's no predicting what sectors will be able to reset in this era of AI and the push for cost-efficiency.

Rattled by the uncertainty? Faith-based Career Coaching. Special expertise with transitions, reskilling and aging. Psychic/tarot readings, upon request. Complimentary consultation with Jane Genova (Text 203-468-8579, janegenova374@gmail.com). Yes, test out the chemistry.

The Elite Psychics - Cassanda Vanzant Provides Solution for Getting Clarity, Finally

Image
  Ever since The New York Times saluted the Tarot in April 2021as a tool for self-awareness and introspection, there has been massive interest in psychic readings. More recently the media designated psychics as the new therapists. However, that left those seeking guidance in a pickle. The issue is: How to select a psychic who is 1) authentic 2) caring and 3) will provide the results you need.  Long-time psychic Cassandra Vanzant observed that confusion.

Aging - Holding On To Sense Of A Self

Image
  The Wall Street Journal fingers retirement for the epidemic of a loss of self among the aging.  However, the process can kick in as soon as anyone senses they are no longer young. Gone is their youthful self. Denying aging, they don't invest in creating a new self - and continually bringing up to date that identity. By time there is a shift from a demanding career to part-time, freelance, entrepreneurial or no work there is no emotional, physical and spiritual platform to keep building on. In the Tarot there are myriad cards which salute moving on and breaking free from the past, even though there is so much uncertainty about the present and the future.  My favorite card for that is the Eight of Cups. It is commonly called The Walking Away card. I prefer to refer to it as The Walking Toward card.  Cups symbolize emotion. There is certainly lots of that in leaving the past behind. The mountains stand for the unknowns. The sitting position recommends not rushing the...

We Are All Paul Weiss - And Now We Are Different

Image
 Paul Weiss has been the tipping point.  The Executive Order by the current administration - the third issued - got to us. How vulnerable we all are to power. Forget the grade school lessons about what America is about. Forget how university deans caved during our counterculture protests.  Yes, and forget "rights"  as being sacred. Here's what we now know. The key driven in that EO was that a lawyer who had been a partner at Paul Weiss years ago - Mark Pomerantz - had landed on the US President's enemies list. Of course there were other things about Paul Weiss, such as its mission for diversity, which didn't sit well with MAGA ideology. But that stuff probably was small potatoes. Pomerantz was the trouble spot. How obvious it became: We are all Paul Weiss.  Conversations I have with tarot-card clients, what I read in the media and what's turning up on professional anonymous networks Reddit and Fishbowl scream one message: Everyone can be a target for politica...
