Synchronicity


This text from "Waking Your Dreams" by Emma Mellon,Ph.D.


A Synchronicity is a meaningful coincidence. An event in the psyche seems to burst out of the imaginal world and appear in the normal flow of rational existence. An inner event connects with an outer event. A synchronicity confirms that what is going on inside us is one with what is happening outside us. The veil between the imaginal world and the world of matter lifts and unity is clear. Synchronicities are not magic. They are the normal elbowing of one realm up against the other, moments of feeling at home in a much larger context than we usually perceive. They usually occur when an individual is experiencing a significant development phase or a period of in tense emotion. The unconscious image can come in an idea, a premonition or a dream.

This is something I am currently experiencing with my art life. Its always a beautiful surprise when it happens.
