The Rise of Alternative Spirituality
Alternative spirituality is gaining significant traction, as reflected in a recent survey indicating that 26% of adult Americans believe in astrology and consult it for important life decisions. Tarot readings are believed by over one in ten individuals, underscoring the broad acceptance of New Age practices like manifestation and karma. In Singapore, the trend mirrors this growth, with establishments hosting tarot card readings and spiritual practices becoming increasingly popular among the youth. This cultural shift highlights a desire for holistic self-improvement and personal growth, fostering a community engaged in spiritual exploration.
