Patterns In Life Are No Coincidence - Synchronicity

Описание: #synchronicity #synchronicities #carljung #coincidences #nocoincidence

Coincidences have had a bad reputation in science. After all, they occur independently, right?
When you meet a friend randomly on the street, after thinking about them randomly in the morning, that’s a coincidence.
When you get a surprise call from a parent when you need them the most. Coincidence. Right?
But what if you see something in your dream. And that exact thing appeared in real life, during that day. Coincidence again. Right?
We are quick to discard many of these instances as coincidence. A product of chance. Even if you and your parents hadn’t talked for months. That phone call was just coincidence.
Even if the object you saw in your dreams was exotic and had almost no chance of appearing in front of you that day. It was a coincidence, right?
There is no actual meaning behind these events, right?
But what if there really is some meaning?
What if there is something at work here, that made these events coincide with eachother?
That would be crazy.
And what if I tell you that there is actually a name for this phenomenon?
And that this concept has been put forward by one of the most revered and pioneering scholars in psychology?
Well, as it turns out, we’re in luck.
This phenomenon is known as synchronicity.
It is an exotic word. With a somewhat exotic meaning behind it.
Let's look a bit into it with the help of Carl Jung, the psychiatrist that coined thee term of Synchronicity or Synchronicities in his 1961 book Synchronicity: An Acausal Connecting Principle.
