How Does Synchronicity Work?

How many times has something happened in your life that seems to come out of the blue, almost as if a response to something thought, yet, not spoken? I’m talking about something unusual, perhaps even a bit weird because it’s so unforeseen. It’s as if something inside you or some energy larger than life is responding to your needs, sometimes without you even being aware of what you needed. Unexpected surprises.

To me, the most remarkable thing about synchronicity is it provides the proof that we are not alone! There is a connection. Think of the stories you hear! A person has capsized his boat and is treading water, exhausted and about to give up, when a porpoise suddenly pops up beside him and leads him to shore or perhaps a log drifts to him and he is able to grasp onto it and keep afloat until he is rescued.

On a less life-threatening scale, it might be you’re feeling lost and alone when suddenly you smell the same fragrance your mother or grandmother wore; or hear a loved one’s name whispered on the wind bringing her love to your mind and heart; or clearly see in your mind’s eye the face of a person important to you, prompting you to reach out to her; or when you close your eyes, you have words come to you that have a positive influence on your future thoughts and actions. Again, it is a connection. So, how does synchronicity work?

Have you ever been meditating or even sitting and relaxing when a vision comes to you where you can see an event happening, so real you even experience the feelings that go along with it? Then, along comes the thought and a strong sense it was something you either experienced in another time or place or it’s going to be part of your future. You know what I’m talking about… that sense of knowing. It happens to all of us whether we are willing to recognize it for what it is or not. So again, how does synchronicity work?

If you believe that everything is energy as I do, that alone indicates we are all connected, and because we are, there are times when it is possible to sense someone else’s emotional energy and respond to it. Now, the catch is to look at this idea without restricting it to the lower 3rd and 4th earthly dimensions (vibrations) where we live in human form. What do I mean by that? In other words, since energy is energy and everything is energy, we are not limited in any way to be able to connect to those in a higher vibrational energy in non-human form such as one who has died and is no longer present on earth. In turn, those who have passed are able to connect with us in the lower vibrational human form. Those moments of inseparableness is how synchronicity works. It’s that connection.

I believe the beautiful thing about synchronicity is knowing there are so many energies in human and non-human form who surround us wanting the best for us. They are there to give us love, guidance and support. All we have to do is become more aware and open to receiving their wonderful messages in order to take advantage of all they reveal to us. Keep in mind, they are there for our own good. Think about it! Isn’t it lovely to know we are never alone? How blessed are we!
