Synchronicity, Precognition, and Déjà Vu

What are your thoughts on Synchronicity? Not sure if you watch television but the character on Madmen is going through the exact same issue as me (weight gain, thyroid issues, and a lump). Normally, I wouldn’t think much of it but it was so identical to my situation and on top of that, the actress and I share the same name. It’s not a common first name (January). How can this not be some sort of sign?

Synchronicity is a term that can be used to describe the resulting effects of coherent and resonant fields of influence connecting with each other. These connections in turn result in the shaping and influence of our personal experiences of reality.

In short, synchronicity is the ‘physical’ manifestation of objects, people, circumstances, or events in outer reality that reflect the coherent and resonant systems of influence generated by participating individuals responsible for those fields (via similar inner thoughts, attitudes, and imaginal pictures).

To put it simply, synchronicity is the basis of all forms of manifestation.

If you’re currently experiencing synchronicity in your life it means that you’re successfully ‘hooked up’ to various strong fields of coherence and resonance that match your current thoughts, attitudes, and internal imaginal pictures.

Essentially, you’re on the same wavelength as many of the people and events unfolding around you.

In the case of a character in a television show matching or reflecting you or sharing similarities, all that’s happening is that you’re aware of a matching field of resonance and coherence – you’ve been naturally drawn to and connected with something that matches ‘you’. There are no hidden messages.

Again, we are all constantly generating coherent and resonant fields of influence. These fields of influence ensure that we are connected to people (and causing events) that are a ‘match’ to our thoughts and the ‘being’ we are generating.

Precognition and déjà vu are often connected to synchronicity – but these two phenomena are really very different.

Precognition suggests an ability to predict future events. Is this truly possible, or are we simply influencing how reality unfolds by providing a mental blueprint first?

While it’s nice to think of déjà vu as some sort of future echo picked up by the mind, or even perhaps proof of reincarnation (a return to the life we previously left in order to learn something or achieve something we didn’t before) it’s more likely that there is a perfectly innocent explanation.

Latest research suggests that déjà vu is simply a trick of the mind, some kind of abnormal interaction within the hippocampus, causing a crossover of sorts between short and long-term memory, creating the illusion of having experienced an event before.

I would never completely rule out the ability of the mind to be able to in some way ‘pick up’ on future experiences – a sort of reverse memory, possibly tied to pilot waves – but I would agree that the most likely cause for déjà vu is probably biological and chemical in nature.

Many of us at one time or another will have experienced a dream that seems to foretell or foreshadow an event we experience later on in our waking world. Again, we must consider whether our dream was  responsible for influencing reality, or if we have in some way stumbled upon a ripple in time that has allowed us a ‘sneak peek’ at what is to come.

Personally, I believe that time travel in any form is not possible. The past is a memory, the future simply a collection of circumstances and events we are allowed to select from (a process that actually happens in the moment of ‘now’).

Dreams of the future are simply choices ready to be manifested. Their power lies in the fact that dreams occur when the subconscious mind is fully engaged. It’s often the most vivid dreams that come true, and this is because the ‘spiritual’ senses are heightened, and thus the level of influence upon the physical outer reality (while free of it) is greatly enhanced.

Dulling or completely restricting the physical senses (sight, hearing, etc.) appears to sharpen and expand the mind’s ability to truly connect with the imagination – and it’s somewhere on that plane of inner reality that is found the key to boosting your ability to connect with your power to alter, influence, and shape outer ‘physical’ reality.

More often than not, phenomena such as synchronicity, precognition, and déjà vu are either given more credence than they deserve, or are outright dismissed as flights of fancy or New Thought rubbish.

The truth is that when you look for a logical, scientific explanation for these things, you will often find some evidence to support them. However as with all experiences in life, it’s how you measure a thing that counts.

Of you’re measuring synchronicity, precognition, and déjà vu as super-human powers or mystical experiences, chances are you will be rewarded with a measurement that seems to suggest that something strange is going on.

On the other hand, if you measure synchronicity, precognition, and déjà vu as simple, naturally occurring phenomena linked to the mind, the quantum structure of reality, and the biochemistry of the brain, you will be rewarded with a measurement that has been reached via a strong scientific foundation, and one which is therefore all the more believable – and provable.
