“With one breath: with one flow: you will know Synchronicity” – The Police

Two (or more) events that coincide in a meaningful way but are unrelated in terms of causality are considered synchronous. What distinguishes synchronicity from coincidence is meaning. Synchronicity is the experience of meaningful coincidence.

The term was coined by the famous analytical psychologist Carl Jung who used it to explain occurrences like a beetle flying into his studio just as a patient was discussing a scarab beetle in his dream. Since the “coincidence” made Jung consider how the beetle symbolizes rebirth to the Egyptians, he concluded that its appearance in his studio at that very moment in time was significant in that it indicated the same lesson of rebirth be transposed upon the patient’s dream.

Carl Jung also believed in clairvoyance, telepathy, ESP, telekinesis, and astrology; he also believed in what he called a “collective unconscious”, a sea of consciousness in which we all swim, a strikingly familiar concept to those acquainted with the Source Energy, or Life Force, underlying All That Is.

Synchronicity is happening all the time. Just like consciousness is ever-present, so is synchronicity. Consciousness and the physical world of situations and circumstances are both extensions of the same Source Energy. So it’s only natural that when consciousness is in tune with that source, in clear and unfettered alignment, the depth of meaning behind each and every coinciding event is apparent.

There is no un-meaningful coincidence. There are only synchronous events not consciously experienced. Missed synchronicities saturate our lives, dominating our life experiences. This is an unfortunate condition for humanity, as it perpetuates and reinforces the horrible illusion that life is a meaningless string of random experiences that happen to us and over which we have absolutely no control.

Experiencing a moment of synchronicity is like touching the Source of All-That-Is with every cell in your body. Realizing the occurrence of a synchronicity is realizing yourself at your eternal, all-powerful essence. It’s a signal that you are in line with you center, on the right path, doing what you’re supposed to be doing, fully connected to that wellspring of well-being that is your natural state.

If you could always be in unfettered connection with the Source Energy underlying everything, you would experience synchronicity all the time.

To experience more synchronicity in your life, whenever you experience a coincidence start asking yourself, not Is this a synchronicity, but rather What does this synchronicity mean? Then act upon the realization you have or the conclusion you draw; doing so will bring your vibrations more in line with the vibrations of synchronicity, thus inviting more synchronicity into your life.
