A Synchro Checklist

 The other night, we were guests on Daniel Ott’s interesting live podcast.  In the fifty plus radio shows we’ve done for our last two synchronicity books, his audience asked some of the most provocative questions.  I jotted down some of them and glanced over my notes later on.

Is déjà vu related to synchronicity?

Are fractals in nature connected to synchronicity?

Can sex trigger a synchronicity?

Is luck a form of  synchronicity?

Is synchronicity connected to fate or destiny?

When you have a synchronicity, does it mean you’re on the right path?

Is synchronicity the devil’s work?

Is synchronicity a sign from God?

Is synchronicity mentioned in the Bible?

Are all synchronicities good?

Can aliens control or generate synchronicity?

I realized that I although I have a loose checklist about what I believe about synchronicity, I need to write it out and have it handy for these shows. So here’s my checklist. It’s certainly not definitive. Feel free to add to it!

– Synchronicity may be the voice of the higher self- or of God, Buddha, whatever your spiritual beliefs.

– If we are multidimensional beings, then déjà vu could be one form of synchronicity.

– I don’t know if synchronicity is mentioned in the Bible, but signs are. And synchronicity is all about signs.

– No, all synchros aren’t good. Some are warnings to follow – or not – a particular path. Some are dark tricksters, which are often seen in mass media events. This type of synchro seems to be designed to shake us awake, to make us more aware.

– Synchronicity is at work in spirit communication. Some of the best examples are found in the white feather stories on Mike Perry’s blog.

– As for the devil and synchronicity…well, I think that depends on your belief system. If you believe in a devil, then the darker synchros may be interpreted in that light.

– Just because you have a synchronicity, it doesn’t mean you should follow that guidance. Sometimes, synchros seem to present options.

–       Luck versus synchronicity. We addressed this issue in 7 Secrets of Synchronicity  and did a post about it.  In essence, luck is a fortunate synchronicity unless the adjective ‘bad’ comes before it. Luck is something that appears unplanned, outside of cause and effect, hence, synchronicity. But here’s the difference. Imagine jotting down six numbers and they turn out to be the ones that win the powerball lottery the next day. That’s synchronicity. But if you bought the ticket and used the numbers, that’s luck. It took action before the synchronicity turned into something incredibly lucky.

–       Synchronicity & fate/destiny. This is a sticky question because I believe that we are beings endowed with complete free will. I believe that we – our souls, our higher selves, whatever you want to call it – choose everything from our parents and the circumstances of our births to the experiences we have as physical beings. I believe that we create our reality from the inside out. And yet, astrology, through a point called a Vertex, suggests that we before we’re born, we make certain agreements to meet up with someone, to have a particular experience.  But our free will ultimately decides whether we keep this appointment or not.

– Synchronicities happen more frequently when we’re aware of them and that often begins when our lives are in the grips of major transitions – falling in love, marriage, divorce, birth, death, a professional leap, a move, a change in financial status- i.e., BIG changes.

-Sex or any intense emotional/physical experience can trigger synchronicity.

– Can aliens or inter-dimensional beings control and generate synchros? According to contactee Sandy,  the answer is a resounding yes.

– Synchronicity is an interface between the living and the dead; between the face we represent to the world and who we are in the deeper recesses of our souls; between us and the  underlying reality that permeates our lives; between the conscious and the unconscious.

Synchronicity is the most obvious manifestation of the ways we are connected, one to another, you to me, to you, to you and you, on up the line to more than 7 billion souls. Synchronicity reminds us we are all in this together.
