That's the type of coincidence that would have got you burnt as a witch 333 years ago. (333 being both how long ago the 1693 Salem witch trials were, AND half of 666. What are the odds!) -

On the topic of coincidence, I wish I could recall where I read words to the effect that a pattern of frost on a window might happen to look a bit like "Jim," which will not be particularly interesting to people named Zedekiah who might not even...

One phenomenon that some people place a lot of stock in is numerology. They find meaning in such things as two people having the same birthday, for example, or the same number of letters in their names. Or things like "bible codes", etc; "If you...

What tends to be forgotten are the huge number of actions that people take, or a "feelings" had, that have no corresponding event to tie them to, so are not remembered for having any specific importance. These are of course what make up almost...

Growing up, my mother was always saying "I had a funny feeling X" where X = "someone would call" | "you would say that" | "that would happen" | "the doorbell was going to ring" etc. I remember my first "funny feeling" when I 'sensed' that not...

The idea of synchronicity is fun... but so are ghost stories. If you want to talk about coincidence... The most outrageous coincidence I've ever experienced involved an analog watch with a dead battery that I'd put away and hadn't looked at for...

(Edit to add: I think what you describe is just coincidence. It happens.) I'm aware of a different kind of synchronicity, which is devoid of woo although it often appears superficially that it might be. It is stimulus-driven, but the...

Kkotare replied to the thread Synchronicity - What's your experience of it?.I have a neighbour who is predisposed towards numerology, one day while walking their dog at the beach (usually, weather permitting, done just before lunch, say 11ish) they lost their house keys, subsequently they would look for the keys every...

For James Fox and the Research Team "James, your film presents the military capture as a proven fact, largely based on the 'whistleblower' testimonies collected by Vitório Pacaccini. Those testimonies already had several inconsistencies among... -

This also seems like a good example of how interrelated things can cause the appearance of synchronicity. Project Azorian was a multi facet secret program involving the CIA, our old UFO-reverse-engineering pals at Lockheed, the eccentric Howard... -
Maury Markowitz replied to the thread Another blinking object, satellite?.It could really use an "inactive" selection, right now it's only Active Satellites. -
FatPhil replied to the thread Synchronicity - What's your experience of it?.I noticed a Scot checking in local beers at local pubs on a website where people record/rate/review beers, and from his comments it looked like his plans would intersect with mine. Indeed, he, being easily recognisable, was propping up the bar at... -
JMartJr replied to the thread Synchronicity - What's your experience of it?.That's an interesting flip side to the "you never have seen your neighbors bringing in groceries" silliness: which I guess relies on the fact that most people park in their garage or close as possible to a door when bringing in a load of... -

Trailblazer replied to the thread Synchronicity - What's your experience of it?.Does the Bader-Meinhof phenomenon count as synchronicity? I get that a lot. I first posted about it here over 11 years ago. But I can never remember any good examples. I need to keep a Bader-Meinhof file on my phone (although then the advertising... -
