• Culture and society in the Piscean Age have impacted our viewpoint about work and purpose. We are taught that there is a life’s work. We are taught the value of a day’s work. We are directed to work hard. We are taught to believe that hard work will create the desired result…money, and all the stuff and leisure it can buy. We work to gain wealth instead of working for fulfillment. The employment system is hierarchical and results in too many not making enough. The control is given to the few. Others are left to work just to stay alive. Of course, there are a host of variations in between.
• Society based on money also convinces the worker to value credit, immediate satisfaction, living for tomorrow, etc. The seduction of the worker results in large debt that can easily overwhelm, dishearten, and enslave the worker. We are seduced to focus outside of ourselves, viewing the acquisition of stuff as the ultimate goal, believing that money will buy happiness, though the evidence to the contrary is prevalent.
