Synchronicity


Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events that are apparently causally unrelated or unlikely to occur together by chance, yet are experienced as occurring together in a meaningful manner. The concept of synchronicity was first described by Carl Jung, a Swiss psychologist. A grouping of events by meaning need not have an explanation in terms of cause and effect but these simultaneous occurrences that are meaningfully related. Synchronistic events  reveal an underlying pattern, a conceptual framework that encompasses, but is larger than, any of the systems that display the synchronicity.
