Synchronicity

"Synchronicity"

Watercolor on paper, 24 Jun. 2004

  We read in Wikipedia:  

     "Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events that are apparently causally unrelated...  yet are experienced as ocurring together in a meaningful manner. The concept of synchronicity was first described by Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychologist, in the 1920s."

     "...The concept does not question, or compete with, the notion of causality. Instead, it maintains that just as events may be grouped by cause, they may be also grouped by meaning. A grouping of events by meaning need not (to) have an explanation in terms of cause and effect..."

    "...Following discussions with both Albert Einstein and Wolfgang Pauli, Jung believed that there were parallels between synchronicity and aspects of the Relativity Theory and Quantum Mechanics. Jung was transfixed by the idea that life was not a series of random events but rather an expression of a deeper order, which he and Pauli referred as 'Unus Mundus'. This deeper order led to the insights that a person was embedded in an orderly framework and that he/she was its focus. The realization of this was more than an intellectual exercise, having also elements of a spiritual awakening." 


    "...From the religious perspective, synchronicity shares similar characteristics of an 'intervention of grace'. Jung also believed that in a person's life, synchronicity served a role similar to that of dreams, with the purpose of shifting a person's egocentric conscious thinking to greater wholeness."
