Nothing interests me more than the idea of synchronicity. This concept, going further than mere coincidence happens when two extremely similar events occur at different times and circumstances. It ties in with deju vu, clairvoyance, and psychic phenomena. When these syncronicities occur at a high rate you can be sure to classify them in the paranormal.

What exactly cause this is unknown, but the idea can’t be ignored. On the contrary, when it happens to you it can dominate your thoughts perhaps causes more and more coincidences.

Examples

• One such example is the invention of the calculus by two different men in two different parts of the world at the same time.
• The playing of Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon to the Wizard of Oz
• Thinking of the number 23 and then seeing it everywhere.
• While I was looking at a map and wondering how much property costs in a certain town, a woman called and asked how much property costs in that town (this was at a pizza shop)
• Twins separated at birth reunited to find out they had married women of the same name, gave birth to boys of the same name in the same month and year, and had the same professions.
• Thinking of a person and seeing their name everywhere.
• Picking up the phone to call someone the exact instant they called you.

These are just a few examples of synchronicity, and I could go on and on about the subject. Perhaps another time I’ll update the list.
