1 in 6 Billion


What are the chances that on a camping trip in a small forest outside of London you realise that the strangers you are with you have met before?
Tim arrived in London only a few days earlier and I thought he would enjoy meeting a crew of British guys I met at the BOOM festival last summer.
Already well into the night Karl turns to me and mentions a solar eclipse festival in Turkey that he attended years earlier. I knew that Tim had been there as well and so I mentioned it the group. Within seconds, Tim, whose eyes were now wide open, realises as the rest of them do, that they had all met atop a mountain just before the eclipse 2 years ago.
Amidst our shock and laughing Kevin points out that this experience qualifies as absolute Synchronicity.
Wikipedia states that Synchronicity is "the experience of two or more events which are casually unrelated occurring together in a supposedly meaningful manner."
I would also add that each day in our life there are countless meaningful "coincidences" which manifest through the law of attraction, though we are often not aware enough to see the connections or the purpose.
Sometimes they can show that we are on the right path and other times they continue to occur until we resolve the lesson that they are presenting us with.
And every time, synchronous moments serve to bring my awareness to the mystery and intention of an awe inspiring universe.
