Our attention to complex synchronicities, or our sensing some of the deep interconnections manifested through the events of our lives, often suggests an intelligent force guiding our lives and understanding.
Synchronicities are meaningful “coincidences” that seem to have no obvious causal connection. In metaphysical idealism, all of the universe is deeply interconnected; however, such connections are not necessarily readily apparent.
There is a much grander repertoire of cause and effect when you acknowledge that there is more to our world than just the physical. Much of what we know hinges on what humans believe to be possible, and any limitations are largely “within the mind.”
There is overwhelming scientific evidence for non-local consciousness, such as the reality of telepathy, precognition, presentiment, out-of-body experiences, remote viewing, and past-life memories in children indicative of reincarnation. Researchers of these subjects are leading the charge in removing the self-imposed limitations of human capability that are inherent in materialism.
Synchronicities grab our attention, and so reveal our vast interconnectedness. They allow us to make more sense of human experience beyond our daily conscious awareness. They offer further compelling data to ponder on the interconnections we all share.
PRACTICE
Take note of synchronicities that occur in your life and consider that they could have more significance than you might have previously believed.

Entangled Minds by Dean Radin
I’m adopted and have read a lot of stories adoptees tell about synchronicities with their biological families. I have a lot of synchronicities with my birth mother, who I met 28 years ago in 1994, when I was 33. I am 61 and she is in her 80s. As adolescents we both loved Science Fiction and the architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright. Okay, it is not so unusual for teenagers to love Science Fiction, but how many teenagers were into Frank Lloyd Wright’s architecture? Also, my birth mother studied commercial art in college. I took a few classes in commercial art in college. I went to college my Freshman year at The American University in DC. I would go jogging on the track there. My mother (the decade before I went to college) had lived near AU and had also gone jogging on the same track. I had literally followed in her footsteps while jogging. As far as I know, there is no gene for “jogging on the track at AU.” I am on my birth mother’s wavelength, as our main hobbies are reading, art and travel. My birth mother has gotten me into meditation. Now she is getting me into Theosophy, which she learned about in a book that had belonged to her grandfather. Theosophy seems related to Buddhism, but not identical. Theosophy seems to be about soul evolution, which is a new concept to me. My birth mother is definitely breading my horizons. She listens to Sacred Acoustics too, by the way.
breading = autocorrect typo for broadening
What a good idea to think to simply accept the interesting nature of synchronicities, as someone suggested in this thread. I find that idea to be very calming because sometimes I get overly excited about my experiences. For example, for almost a year now when I’m driving I’ll see many, many license plates that have double numbers within the plate numbers like 236692 or 773149 or patterns like 2767. I’ve finally gotten to the point just recently that I see that these plates are letting me know I’m on the right path or moving in the right direction. Funnily enough, one day when I was out driving recently, this phenomenon was not happening and I got nervous. Thanks for this topic today. Now I can view this experience simply as a caring friend riding with me and guiding me along the way. So cool!
I have said for years to pay attention to what your internal gut tells you and you won’t go wrong
So true. I feel I have survived so far mainly by my gut instincts. They are discovering our gut does play a very important part in our thinking.
Does meditation and looking for synchronicities increase their occurrence? In other words, is there a superintending mind or power that pays attention and responds?
Absolutely! Carl Jung’s main observation about synchronicities concerned their apparent reality in spite of no possible direct (materialistic) causal connection linking the events. They generally become more frequent as we become more attuned to finding them. Any apparent limits probably have to do with the ultimate potential for our soul growth. They have very direct implications for the truth of a higher intelligence creating and governing their manifestation. Meditation “thins the veil” and allows us to develop a richer relationship with that intelligent force at their origin. Ultimately, we discover our mental experience (especially awakened beyond the simplistic and confused ego mind) overlaps and becomes one with the integrated intelligence of the universe. In the most profound sense, we can glimpse oneness with the ultimate loving creative God-force of the universe.
Carl Jung popularized synchronicity, and interacted with Wolfgang Pauli from 1932-1958 on the intersection of physics and consciousness. Modern physics has gravitated toward string theory, which involves four dimensions for space and time, another four dimensions for dark matter for space and time, and then sixteen compactified dimensions that form three Calabi Yau manifolds each of six dimensions with different topologies. Information is present in the walls of the quantum compartments of space, as well as in matter, and this information synchronizes all activities through the compactified subspaces. The synchronicity that Jung and Pauli discussed is the linkage of events by the transsmission of information; Jung cited a patient describing a dream with a scarab or spider in it, and just as this was being described, Jung noticed a scarab beating on his office window,so he opened up the window and handed the insect to the woman, who immediately opened up to further interactions with Jung to cure her mental issues.
correction: sixteen compactified dimensions should read eighteen compactified dimensions, six for the matter four dimensional subspace, six for the dark matter four dimensional subspace, and six for connecting these two six dimension compactified subspaces to insure synchronicity!
These happen all the time, and I used to call them coincidences, but then there seemed to be an invisible director who was causing them. Yes, we are all connected…
My days lately have been sad because of the passing of my husband on Sept 12th.
What’s given me hope and comfort is Eben’s teachings and today, no accident, I came to know that 2 people I that I know, knew all about you, Eben.
It brought me such joy and peace. They both have a deep sense of spirituality which is what I want to develop. No coincidences!
Hi Eben and Karen.
What a truly amazing journey.
The series has so expanded my awareness. Maybe to a fault?
So eager to have connections with my husband, I’m always waiting for some kind of sign.
I have no synchronicities to report as of yet, maybe I have and don’t realize it?
Looking forward!
Blessings Eben and Karen.
Let me tell U about finding a filipina on the other side of the globe from Texas. I was amazed that we even met; she stopped answering text messages on my way to meet her & the traffic in Cebu City made the trip an ordeal, but I didn’t give up. We hit it off very well, so well, in fact, that I went back w/ her to meet her family the next day. A few days later, I noticed she had a slave tattoo on the inside of her left thigh while mine is on the right. The other “coincidences” could fill a small book.
Seems to me synchronicities should be numerous and natural. Why aren’t they? Why do we go “wow” and “how weird” and “that’s amazing” when a synchronicity occurs? I think it is because we have all been conditioned with scientific materialism. In that culturally pervading viewpoint, we live in a meaningless, unintelligent universe made of inert matter. Consciousness is an illusion or epiphenomenon, or emergent of matter. There is no purpose and meaning except what we make up through wishful thinking. In such a universe, synchronicities would be rare accidents. But in a living universe of life, of purpose, of intelligence, and of creativity, all things are in resonance in a great symphony. Next time a synchronicity happens, just think “Of course!” Don’t think “unbelievable”!!
How about the hundreds or thousands of synchronicities that happen to put all the pieces together to form AA. One who studies the history of that program with an open mind couldn’t possibly deny that we are all connected in common struggles. I know for me a tear comes to my eye whenever I think about Henrietta Seiberling telling Bill Wilson she was waiting for his call in Akron Ohio just before Mother’s Day.
Synchronicity or
One event leading to another,to me can seem to happen whenever we focus our attention on a want or a need which can indeed lead to opportunities appearing in a personal way At least that’s the way a chain of happy events came to me, the trick is not to dismiss or to put off going with the flow as I later excitedly wrote on my blog “Everyone has a story”
What happened to me my “need” or “want” came out of being stuck in a rut of the daily grind to earn enough money to feed my family and provide all of the usual things we think we need to have while working long hours in a job I really didn’t like doing
in my own personal experience I was led to a amazing and stimulating world of change that I could not have known about.
Forgive me for writing too much here because I usually write enough to fill a book, anyway if you may be interested please read my blog thank you-and a big thank you to Eben and Karen for these discussions which are so appreciated by so many.
Sorry my website/ Bolg doesn’t seem to have loaded here.
I have had some synchronicities going on though I really didn’t realize what it was until I started reading your stories. I am so grateful for all the sharing, I have learned a lot just listening to your sharing. Bless you all, I am truly so grateful.
Thank you again and again Karen and Eben for this opportunity to be involved in the miraculous journey.
Love and light to all.
I used to have Déjà vu for places all the and after 30 years of driving trucks I lost it. But I still get it for “time”; It kind sneaks up on me as it comes into focus. I love it… it kind of makes me feel I’m on the right track.
I learned about synchronicities through books and listening to various mediums such as Kim Russo, James Van Praag, etc.. For me I truly believe in it. My dad passed away in 2010 and I always talk to him out loud and sometimes he does appear in my dreams. A medium once told me my dad is always around me and I truly believe it. Well.. this is where my story falls in the lines of synchronicities. I have 2 children, both in college in Florida and my husband and I live in Connecticut. We only had 3 cars as the need the 3 cars during the summer months, when the boys come home to work. Our third car was old and finally broke down during the boys winter break. Money was tight, but I knew we needed a 3rd car before the boys returned home for the summer. Luckily I work from home and do not need a car I would talk to my dad mentally and out loud… i needed to find a car that I wasn’t just fixing every other day. Well to my surprised a dealership had a car that was 2013 and the monthly estimated payment was something we could afford. So the day we were closing for the deal, the monthly payment was may dad’s favorite number – 237. At first I was thinking I love the number as it reminds me of my dad. Then we go to our car and our license plate starts off with AN – as my name is Anne — and I was like that is cool —- then the numbers following was my child hood last four digits of our home phone number. To me that confirmed — -this car was found by my dad. Every day i light a candle and pray for him. He was an amazing person and I know he is always there if I need him.
I sadly haven’t had many of these signs occur to me. I am 19 years old and in college. My mother passed away when I was 12 and I thought that I may see her or atleast receive signs of her more than I do. I have had one thing happen to me but I’m always unsure if it was her or a coincidence. I ask but get nothing. I wonder if it’s because I’m not in the right state of mind or I’m looking too hard…I’m just wondering if there is a reason for this. Growing up without my main supporter has been hard and I’m surprised I haven’t had more. Thank you all for sharing your great stories! It gives me comfort
Dear Kenna,
Your story is so touching. Personally I think our loved ones must find it difficult to come back and visit us on this side. You never know why they come or don’t come. It is fortunate indeed when they do, but whether they do or don’t visit seems to depend on factors we can’t fathom. Just keep loving your mom and treasuring those feelings of love and your beautiful memories. She probably can feel it. Someday it’s very possible she may come to you. And if for some reason that cannot be, I hope you are visited by other beautiful spirits. Please remain at peace regardless and feel how much you are loved by beings in this world and beyond.
Suzanne
Suzanne is right Kenna…focus on love. To quote Eban’s LIMU “The most important quality to which we will be judged concerns the love we have managed to manifest while here on earth.” Your job is not to look for your mom but remember the love you felt from her. Grow that love and give love to others who need you! You are deeply loved and needed. A tragic loss like yours can derail our understanding of love and you can spend years struggling to make sense of it. Only love (giving it away in service of others) will bring you to love yourself and be able to accept the love you deserve. Your mom did not leave you and she has not abandoned you. Thank you for sharing your story.
Dear Kenna,
I know you posted this message a few years ago but I’ve only just read it.
Maybe things have changed for you but if not then I would like to tell you that I’m certain your mum is with you. I do not believe it is difficult for her, there is no reason to believe that. Why on Earth/ in this amazing Universe would she not be with you! Think of her, feel her within and around you all the time. There in no need to look for signs, as you trust more and more and as you talk to her you will notice more. Talk to her, be with her. People we love may transition but the love never ever dies.
With love and light MMX🕊
I wonder if awareness of synchronicities is something like gratitude? The more we are aware that these exist, the more we notice them?
Just like the more I am aware of being grateful, the more I become aware of that I am grateful for…. Not sure if this makes sense? lol
I feel synchronicity like this as my experiences into myself and in each human:
Into being ” I ” is the divine (as I ) inself identy, to be as being (as Am) in lives.
The ” I ” divine God in heart ( not the ego) is light to be in being as love. (to be in being as Am)
I feel: Man and Woman are in Love synchron.
In German: Ich fühle in mir Synchronizität als Erfahrung im “Ich Bin” in mir selbst und in jedem Menschen: Das Ich ist Identität und im Bin als Sein im Leben. Das Ich ist Licht und lebt im Bin als Sein in Liebe. Ich fühle: Mann und Frau sind in Liebe synchron.

We create our own experience, either consciously or sub-consciously. Events in our life reflect our deepest needs and happen exactly as they are meant to and when they are meant to – this includes meeting certain people at certain times, events that occur and seeming co-incidences. Be open to your core and what you feel you really need to move forward on this amazing human journey. I often use the phrase ‘You can’t make a tree grow faster by shouting at it’ – everything happens at the pace it is meant to happen, your intention makes you a participant in this adventure rather than a passenger….you are in control!
SYNCHRONICITIES…i am down in Brasil, studying with some healers. Through a variety of circumstances, i am staying at a guest house, where Ram Dass is staying. Every night the 15 or so guests sit around a common table, sharing food and stories. At the end of the 2 weeks, I decide to ask the owner, how much a painting that has been looking down upon us, a gorgeous female saintly Being, happens to cost.
I was by no means wealthy at the time, and so generally didn’t even think to buy art, but why not ask…I am captivated by the image, a beautiful young woman with a radiant Purple & Gold Aura, and a rose emanating Light just in front of her heart.
$100. One Hundred dollars? This could be in a Chapel or Museum. (it turns out the painter had never painted before in her life, but after she received a life saving healing, she spontaneously started painting these beautiful images of Saintly Awakened Women.
I of course buy it.
But here is the part about the synchronicity…As i take the painting off the wall, i see for the first time the artist’s name, Shirlei Lerner.
Lerner is my paternal family name, and Shirley is the name of my mother’s identical twin!
A wonderful story Suzanne, I’d love to see the picture…
What an amazing story! Truly synchronicity!
Synchronicities are not always as tragic as the one I shared on day 8-Dreams. They can be funny too like the one which happend to me years ago. Maybe it was fall because the sun was low but still dazzling. It must have been about 17:30 – closing time. I enjoyed the scenery, an old castle in the eveningsun while I was walking along a lake where some ducks were swimming. From the corner of my eye I realized that one duck started out of the water flying towards me. Because she (it was a female duck) came nearer and nearer I watched her. What I couldn’t see was her lover following directly behind her in her shadow zone. I didn’t see him and he didn’t see me. The duck passed very near to my head, but the drake crashed with full spead and a wet belly against my head, fell into the grass beside me and after some disgusted quaaaks started again to follow his fancy duck. I can be very sure, that he hadn’t read the same book as I had the day before. It was about indian culture of Northamerika and cosmologie and I found out, that I am born in THE MOON OF THE FLYING DUCKS (october).
Synchronicities happen all the time to me. About one to three times a week, I will hear the phrase “you have perfect timing,” or something similar. I interpret them as a note from the Universe saying I am in the right place…which is really helpful to me, because I am often sitting in the unknown, not sure what exactly the “right place is”…but these repeated comments help me feel more comfortable with my choices in a pioneering field of work that offers extremely little feedback for accomplishments. I am not sure if that is the “correct” interpretation, but it is the interpretation that offers some comfort in the unknown.
Within the last month: 1) A radio talk show had a segment on a mysterious Forest Gump impersonator who said he would disappear before Halloween. RIght after the segment, a car changes lanes in front of me and the license plate reads “LFOREST”. Also, on my way to work, I noticed this large unique looking truck that had the rate of “$19 per…” I thought oh! that’s kind of cheap! I rarely notice the cars on the road especially in the early morning.I get to work and I see an article on the Manhattan terrorist attack..there is a picture of the same truck with the $19 which he apparently used. 3) My friend and I took a picture together. A few hours later, she’s on the phone and appears to be texting.. I ask her to send me the picture of us and she looks up at me and goes “…that is exactly what I am doing right now..”. Many coincidences. Now, I know there is a more appropriate word for it!
I have a lot/ series of synchronicities in the last 2-3 months. But I am still wondering what they really mean.
David Beazley my mother’s maiden name is Beazley. My parents gave her maiden name to me as my middle name. Larry Beazley Birch
In May 2016, just days before our daughter’s 4th birthday, we found out my husband’s kidneys had failed and he would have to start dialysis and would need a kidney transplant. We were blindsided and devastated by the news.
My sister, brother in law, and I, all got our blood tested and none of us were the same blood type as my husband. A very hopeless feeling. I reached out it a handful of close friends explaining our situation and asked people to send us some positive vibes & prayers.
A few weeks later, I was at home one night & my husband was at dialysis that evening. Someone who I had only recently become friends with through our daughters play group, got in touch with me. She had a friend, who had a friend, who was in the process of being medically cleared to be an annonomous living donor. He had been in the news recently about it. My friend texted me a link to the news segment. I immediately texted it to my husband. He texted me back saying that he knew this guy, they were friends in high school! Over 20 years ago.
Within minutes we had them in touch with each other. This gentlemen said he wanted to help us. I still get goosebumps.
There was still so much that needed to happen before we would know if this was really a viable option, but they ended up being a blood match, they passed the cross tests. And 8 months later once my husband was medically cleared, he received a kidney from this man!
So much interconnection & synchronicity between people this story.
That’s fascinating and an incredible Blessing… thank you for sharing
my brother died in 2010, in 2014 my mother was on her death bed, I was at a job site where I met someone normally would only meet on first name but this day for some reason she gave me her full maiden name which was Leigh Beasley my brothers name is Lee Beazley maybe coincidence but the day this happened was on my brothers birthday and she looked a lot like my sister in her 30s. 4 months later Mom passed. is this synchronicity? was my brother sending me a message through this coincidence?
Wow… no coincidence… what a Blessed confirmation that our loved ones are with us… thank you for sharing
I agree with Joe Hayes with everything he says. Synchronicities are such a joy to experience, a confirmation that the source is watching us. When I have question and think of the answer, energy source is right there guiding me every step of the way.
Synchronicities have been a guiding beacon for me along my Journey. In the last 5 years they have become such a daily occurrence that I call them the high five from the Universe to support me along the way and keep me on track. At first I just couldn’t write everything down but knew I had to keep records of these special events. They always are unexpected and just what I need at every moment.
it is giving me confidence and self-confidence in my daily living to know that everything has purpose!!
Many years ago, as an experiment, I stopped using the Gregorian calendar, replacing it with the 13 Moon Synchronometer. Based on Mayan time science, it makes it much easier to track synchronicity. In fact, the assumption of the synchronometer is that synchronicity is normal. Gregorian-based thinking makes it seem like synchronicity is an unusual thing, but this is actually an illusion.
THANK YOU PAUL… indeed the G.calendar re the 13 moon Mayan.. has tweeked me ..many moons ago i allowed myself to become deterred so to speak back into the western modern day calendar .. i shall go back into that exploration..Time & the Technosphere..Jose Arguelless.. .. i am very much appreciating Dr Ebens work .. love an light
Now aged seventy seven years, I can look back on my life and see so many synchronicities. I have even worked out such in learning about events in my childhood, that led me to an active change in my later years, that without my conscious knowing had a vast effect on decisions I have made. Looking back, even to distressing circumstances, it has all been a pattern that was obviously within the pattern and plan of this incarnation. A certain incident, and the implications that went on for some years served to change the law and injustice to justice. Love to all. Margaret.
I see synchronicities like a plan in the making. There is no escape, we can kick and scream and run away. It’s going to find you. LOL
