Synchronicity, have you experienced it?
Have you ever thought about someone that you should call on the phone only for them to call you? This is what many people call synchronicity. It’s when you have a premonition of something will happen and then it occurs. There have been many theories about what exactly is happening.
Some say it’s just coincidence. And for some things that could be very possible. But there are some things that go well beyond mathematical probabilities. Carl Jung believed that many experiences that are coincidences due to chance in terms of causality suggested the manifestation of parallel events or circumstances in terms of meaning, reflecting this governing dynamic.
Most instances of synchronicity can be attributed of using hindsight to link seemingly unrelated events as cause and effect. So is synchronicity a real phenomena or is it just a collective unconscious manifestation.
Your probably wondering what it is I believe.
My personal belief is that the phenomena of synchronicity is just the way our minds filter all the events that are happening around us everyday and how that in turn effects our environment around us.
For instance you are on unemployment and your benefits are about to run out. Just as you receive your last check you get a job offer. Was this some magical way the universe provides for what we need or is it that there have been offers out there all the time but you have been filtering them out.
