I think this is a very important article, but at the same time your opinion isn't clear ;) - are you suggesting that people are becoming superstitious as they grasp for meaning and logic in the middle of chaos, or are you suggesting that we DO turn to tarot and astrology as a way to calm ourselves? I'm sure that you've come across this quote by Carl Sagan:

“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness..." - what are your thoughts on that?
