Gypsy<\/a>, whose synchros we’ve posted before, a recent trip east was jammed with synchronicities. She was kind enough to write up this one, which has the trickster’s fingerprints on it. The story also addresses the law of attraction – and manifestation, but with word plays!<\/p>\nSince Gypsy led me to Paul Klee, I decided to use one of his paintings to illustrate this synchro.
+++
On my first morning of the trip east as I travel through the Virginia mountains, the day has been OK but there are the beginnings of overcast skies and then clouds. I’m really hoping it doesn’t rain as I love seeing all the spring glory in the mountains. But the skies darken. I’m in the right lane going up the mountain and thinking the clouds are really are looking ominous, like the tornadic clouds I used to see in northern Little Rock years ago.<\/p>\n
So as I’m watching the clouds swirl and hoping they don’t swirl downward, I see a large white bus about to pass me in the middle of this.I’m thinking how stupid – pouring rain, uphill, winds blowing, passing in outside lane. And there, as the draws alongside me, I see two words written in huge black letters on the side of the bus: “TORNADO TOURS.”<\/p>\n
So I’m going on down the mountain and the winds have started to lighten a bit and the rain is no longer pouring and I’m thinking it’s getting better.. So I decide to listen to some music to lighten my clinched-fist-on-the-steering-wheel mood. Before I’d left home, my daughter had played a couple of her own CDs and had taken a couple of mine out to do hers so I had no clue as to what CD was in which order or even if she’d replaced the ones she’d emoved. In any event, I hit the “on” button and there was Van the Man (Morrison) singing these exact words: “then the rain let up and the sun came up and we were gettin’ dry…”<\/p>\n
As if that isn’t enough, after another hour or so I realize how hungry I am. I haven’t eaten at all. But I’m still in the mountains in between little villages and towns, wondering which exits would have “real” food like fresh fruit. I’m debating with myself about where to turn off. I’m starving, can’t wait too much longer for a bite of something. I look down the road and see a large sign: Hungry Mother State Park. <\/p>\n
On the last leg of my trip down the mountain, I hit the little two-lane highway that is a straight shot to Shrevesport, my destination. It isn’t a route I like.There are no towers at all in the area, so cell reception is impossible. The road is in bad shape, it’s dark, you get the picture. Despite my trepidation, I decide to just buckle up and keep moving as it’s the shortest route. Now, about this time I’m having a mental dialogue with myself about the highway and I remember this is the same highway where the crash scene in the movie Premonition was filmed. I get this cold, clammy feeling and grip the steering wheel more tightly.<\/p>\n
Just as I’m thinking how much I don’t like this, a star streaks across the highway right in front of me. What a sign. I immediately relax, knowing that all is well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
