Intuitive Business: How to Use Tarot For Goal Setting
In today’s coworking, coffee shop and cubicle conversations there’s a new lexicon slowly creeping in to the mid-day matcha break banter. You’ve likely heard it. Conversations about birth charts, planetary transits, crystals and meditation - once the domain of the woo-woo, have become as normal as conversations about workplace wellness and professional development seminars.
You’ve likely heard someone explaining qualities of a coworker by way of their horoscope.
Oh, she’s the self-loathing workaholic one. Capricorn.
She’s so über organized, even her label maker is labeled! Virgo.
Gah, she’s so creative. Pisces.
That social justice warrior is using her vacation time for another march this weekend! Aquarius.
Or - maybe you’ve been on the receiving end of one of these conversations.
My laptop crashed and I can’t seem to land that new client proposal? That’s a Mercury retrograde thing!
My soul-cycle coworker bestie is extra zen lately. She’s seeing a crystal healer!
Isn’t it strange that the boss chose 4:44 on February 22nd to announce the company’s newest initiative? She’s consulting numerology!
Here’s a few other signs that the woo is making its way into your company culture: spotting crystals and palo santo in your bosses corner office or noticing sound meditation and yin yoga on the company wellness weekend calendar.
