WHAT EVIDENCE CAN YOU FIND FOR SYNCHRONICITY.

  What are they, how do they come about, how can you increase synchronicity in your life, and are synchronicities signs of the mind’s growing awareness and ability to manifest thoughts and intents? According to one dictionary synchronicity is “an apparently meaningful coincidence in time of two or more similar or identical events that are causally unrelated.” Carl Jung defined synchronicity as an “acausal connecting principle” meaning that even though two events were not causally connected but were similar or identical was evidence of an underlying governing principle that was larger than each individual event and saw synchronicities as evidence that life is not a series of random events but followed and was an expression of a deeper order. According to these definitions then, synchronicity is evidence of the deeper pattern and meaning inherent in life. An individualistic view would be seeing the synchronicities as meaningful patterns within one’s own life yet, because we are all part of the larger structure of life, this individual pattern is actually significant of the greater pattern of whole that includes everything, humans, animals, plants, the Earth, the Universe. And if you think you’ve never experienced a synchronistic event, think again. Have you ever thought about a person you haven’t seen or talked to in a long time only to have them show up in your life, in a conversation, or through a phone call? Have you ever read or thought about something and then seen it on TV, a movie, or in a conversation that was totally unrelated or nobody but you knew about? These are all examples of ways synchronicity can appear in our lives and, of course, the list of examples could be endless.

  1. I appreciate the clarity of the following "synchronicities signs of the mind’s growing awareness and ability to manifest thoughts and intents? It ties a thread to everything we have been studying in Physics and Bio. As consciousness and awareness evolve so do the choices we have in our participation with the universe

  2. I agree that the experience of synchronicity is undeniable. Do you think we see more when we want to see them? I feel like they can be fun and help us feel more connected to one another which is enjoyable, so maybe sometimes we think they're there when it's merely coincidence? Or maybe we miss the really important synchronicities because we're preoccupied with other things. I wonder which we haven't noticed- maybe they were life changing and we had no idea...
