If you take a look at the word “synchronous” it means events that occur at the same time. Synchronicity narrows this meaning down by 2 rules. The first is that one event cannot cause the other one. The second is that it must be meaningful in some way to the observer of the event. Jung coined the term synchronicity, and its challenge to the science of the day was that up until the 20’s or 30’s physics dealt almost entirely with things that occurred within the principle of causality. Basically speaking, it focused on what happens in a Universe where everything occurs in relation to forces acting on objects or action/reaction.
What opens the door for the concept of synchronicity to be possible in modern science is the advent of quantum mechanics where non-causal events appear frequently, particularly on the atomic level. This new pioneer replaced determinism with probability.
It is no small wonder that Jung met physicist Wolfgang Pauli who pioneered some of the early thinking on quantum mechanics and that the two of them published a book together.
 In this area of my website, you can explore the history, psychology and reality of synchronicity.
Carl Jung Theories
No one can deny the influence Carl Jung had on psychology nor the extent he inspired much in the way of the arts. When we talk about the theories of Carl Jung, we can really touch on some of the main ideas he presented that “stuck.” Click the heading above or Read more...
While Carl Jung coined the term "synchronicity." it certainly wasn't a new phenomena. By following the links below, we'll explore the role of synchronicity commonly called signs, omens or even prophecy in the various world religions...
I am a christian, however, I have studied many world religions. I don't claim expertise in any of them, however, I have seen evidence of truth and wisdom iin all of them. Therefore, I will leave it to you to believe in what you will, however, will suggest areas of interesting reading in the many books, to discern for yourself. An attitude of respect and appreciation for the holy books would suit the world best if we could all adopt it. If we take away all faith and boil it down to logic, each of us will learn the undeniable truth once we've passed the threshold of death, we will find in our minds and our hearts what we believe and anticipate that may be in the mean time. In my experience it does not require me to convince all that the truth I hold true must be theirs as well in order to sustain it.
I have found great comfort, wisdom and hope in the words of my God, and while I can share it as my truth, my experience...I think the beginning of building that relationship is personal and must begin with you. With that said, I hope that one day we can all learn simple respect for human life and allow peace to reign on earth. It may be impossible, or improbable but I think it would please God if we could achieve it. May God bless us all in our pursuit of building a relationship with him and reveal to us the truth he would intend us to see.
The Bible tells us a very long accounting of God's presence, action, will and promise.
The Qur'an is considered a volume of numerous signs just upon its literary merits alone, which early on challenges us to bring men and jinns together to produce the like and assures us they cannot
The Vedas have guided Indian civilization for millennia. Specifically, the Bhagavad Gita reveals in scripture that God exists and gives us insight into his personality.
In the Tao, we are told in it's opening, When we see beyond the desire to use names, we can sense the nameless cause of
these effects.The cause and the effects are aspects of the same, one thing.
They are both mysterious and profound.
