Re: synchronicity??? Is it from God
Sun, January 18, 2009 - 9:28 AMTo me i consider it all a part of communication with God. then again i think that we are all also a part of God and God is everthing and nothing etc. depends on what you think is God. That's something only you can decide for yourself.

See for yourself
Mon, January 19, 2009 - 3:18 AMAsk yourself: Are low minded feelings are attached to the experience? Does it create fear, doubt, unease? What does it feel like in the body? Does it create butterflies, a wave of bliss or nausea? How many times did it occur? Was it something which seemed obscure or far fetched? Or was it extremely clear? What thoughts went through your mind at that time, were they egotistical or were you awe inspired?
Interpreting synchronicity is like interpreting a dream.
If you resonate with a higher power, then you may have had a visceral feeling associated with that, as it is a vibration. Getting overly caught up in the symbolism and low minded thoughts about it may cause deception as ego creates illusions in these matters when trying to rationalize something perceived as spiritual.
At least as far as positive messages go, If it resonates, then it will create such a profound sense of knowing, a positive feeling vibrating throughout your being which is undeniable by any logic or reason. The moment it is attached to in a low minded way, the potency decreases.
Some are more minor then others. Pay attention to how poignant it is and the internal indicators which signal to you a problem or awakening.
It is easy to get caught up in synchronicity, taking it very seriously. A balance is required to avoid self-deception, while still maintaining awareness, so when something important comes into field, it isn't missed out on .

Re: See for yourself
Mon, January 26, 2009 - 1:54 PMi see things happen, and i think to myself: 'is there a lesson to be gleaned from this?' or “what do i see in this thing, that is also going on in my life or the wrest of the world?’ how would i deal with such a thing? or am i prepared if something similar happens around me...
or better yet, how do i help others by learning from what i just experienced...
i view it as harmony, or getting ready to find harmony in the discord that seems to be coming
we notice the ripples before the heavy rain, we notice the buds before there are flowers… -

Re: See for yourself
Tue, February 17, 2009 - 5:57 AMI agree that there's no need to analyse Synchronicity in too much depth, but I've personally found that if we simply dismiss them, then we could be missing out on an opportunity to learn and further our understanding of these subtle forces of nature. I encounter moments of Synchronicity on almost a daily basis and I feel that they act like 'nudges from above' to help steer my thoughts in certain directions I might never have considered before. I think we can delve much deeper into synchronicity than many of us believe possible, but we each choose how deep we want to dive. I personally like to swim in it as much possible. To simply say we should ignore it, is like saying we should dismiss our gut instinct. I feel that these are all different ways for the Universe (God/Creator/or whatever you want to call it) to help steer us in life. Out intuition picks it up on the moment of 'weirdness'....do you choose to dismiss and continue about your day, or do you pause to ask why that just happened at that particular moment in your life. Is there a message? Maybe not, but then again.......
Sol....I enjoy mental masturbation....it helps relieve some of the stresses of life. All thinking could be considered mental masturbation....should we not use our Brains?? Did our Creator not give us a Mind so we can use it? By observing synchronicity and then trying to digest it I get great satisfaction. I've followed the breadcrumbs and been lead to some pretty interesting places in my time, and I encourage others to do likewise. Hope you've enjoyed my mental excretions!

What is God?
Coinciedences or synchroncities are activated through The Law of Attraction and your thoughts.

Re: See for yourself
Thu, February 26, 2009 - 5:46 AMTo say that coincedences or synchronicities are the Law of Attraction, nothing more, nothing less, and that's final, is a little shortsighted. How can you say this for fact? How can we say anything for fact? Also how do you explain the synchronicities that happen when you haven't been thinking of them - themes/Symbols repeating over and over.
I've been bombarded with synchronicities and haven't been thinking about them in the slightest. They meant nothing to me and yet they continued appearing in my life. I didn't invest any time in attracting them, I didn't 'OM' them into my life, and yet they came and came and came. It got to a point where I finally thought OK, I'll try and figure out what they mean. When I did I was lead down some unusual avenues of thought I might never would have explored before.
I see synchronicities as a teaching tool. When we're wiling to learn (and I'd have to say that I was a reluctant pupil to begin with) that's when we start understanding the true nature of this phenomenon. I still don't have all the answers, and I accept I never will have all the answers, but I have some of them. Synchronicity was the teacher. Maybe I taught myself. Who truly knows!? -

How could you say that synchronicity is anything other than meaningless coincidence? If synchronicity isn't deeply personal, then how come I experience my synchronicity alone? If it is deeply personal, then how do I tell a random blip in the numbers from something significant, and what if I'm distracted or looking away when that message from "?" comes to me? No one else can tell me I missed it. How do I know I'm not self deluding and seeing only what I want to see? We know that most beliefs are supported by post hoc rationalizing, why would this be any different? And how come I have not been able to use synchronicity to change anything in the world around me, or use it to predict anything, or have it present itself meaningfully to anyone else around me? How does it function without an external, wishful and controlling omniscient intelligence? And if it doesn't, and it's me, then how can I possibly meaningfully relate it to anyone else; am I an island unto myself?
"Maybe I taught myself. Who truly knows!? "
Exactly! I got over trying to make synchronicity into a big spiritual deal and into something magical. The fact that I have a brain to ponder these things seems pretty magical at times. Every day and every moment is unique and gone in a flash and I will never get it back; just being here is the real magic. It doesn't require god(s) and it doesn't require validation from the outside, and it doesn't require synchronicity or guide posts or markers, though they were quite helpful in helping me understand myself and untangle my own mind from the seemingly random noise of existence... ;)
The law of attraction is a cowardly flim-flam that perpetuates the blame the victim mentality. Even if the world isn't a confusingly random mash of bad luck and missed opportunity, it's a controlling agenda that suggests that people born into war torn and impoverished situations aren't rising out of it because of a flaw in their desires. (Call it Original Sin if you're a Catholic, or spin it any other way you need to for any particular religion's sake. It's a way to sell you more books and DVDs on Oprah's show and it doesn't help a damn thing.)
