Corporate Execs and Entrepreneurs are Turning to Astrology and Psychic ReadingsWritten by L. Barrett Powell
With exposure of corporate greed, layoffs and unemployment, disappearance of pensions, and widening of gap between rich and poor, stress has increased greatly among corporate executives, academics and other professionals. To cope, they are turning to spiritual sources, but not what you would think. These days it is not uncommon for an executive vice president to close his door, pick up telephone, and consult his personal astrologer or spiritual intuitive - known by many as a psychic or clairvoyant.For nearly four years I have been operating Healing Universe, which runs and advice site called Inpsired Living Advice Network. This type of counsel is becoming increasingly commonplace. It is not a spiritual trend or fad that will fade away. In fact it will increase greatly over next decade. I may spend several hours a day working with men and women around globe who seek advice about situations at work or in their family so they can make decisions. Every day I speak with professionals who are university professors, radio executives, well-known winery owners, investment portfolio fund managers, entrepreneurs, presidents and vice presidents, music industry execs, homemakers, and parents from around world. Those global clients come from places such as Australia, United Kingdom, Denmark, Canada and USA. Clients typically keep their conversations under wraps, not telling their office staff or colleagues. But they consult her on a regular basis many times weekly or bi-weekly, to help them gain clarity in a decision-making process or to develop resources to make progress on a project.

I think starting with putting spiritual knowledge to work in our families, then our work, physical exercise, eating healthy foods, and just plain laughter and fun. If one spends time each day in prayer and mediation one will find that balance. This balance is really important as other wise we may fall under egos wants, or our wishes and desires, or our fears. Many people who first traverse spiritual path get lost in these things. They loss perspective of reasons they are going each day to spiritual plane is to better live on physical plane. When we are in this balance or being grounded we are less likely to fall prey to flights of fantasy. When embarking on a spiritual journey people need some just plain good
