 Synchronicity -- Thoughts?

Well, during my first P. Cubensis experience, I felt a strong sense of deja vu throughout many parts, and I remember a moment during the trip in which I recollected something that happened earlier in the day, and a thought that went through my mind at that time, and the train of thought I was on during that moment of recollection culminated into the previous thought to form something complete. I don't remember the specific thoughts(I'm not sure that I could remember even when it happened), so I apologize for the vagueness.
Since then, I've felt a sense of connectedness with everything around me. Not only people, but inanimate objects, pets, etc. Whenever I trip, and for a few weeks afterward(I don't trip very often), many of the conscious thoughts going through my head meet up with seemingly random things. For instance, I've got a habit of randomly highlighting parts of paragraphs(or words) while browsing forums, Internet stores, etc., and multiple times I've been paying attention to something else, whether it's music, or my thoughts, or whatever, and as soon as I look down at the screen, the word I have highlighted is a word that seams into the fabric of my thoughts.
Another example is on the cable user interface on my television. I have another habit of pulling up the guide, scrolling through to find something else to watch, then paying attention to thoughts or music for a few seconds up to several minutes. While tripping, or for a while afterward, nearly every time this happens, whatever I have highlighted, or a word in the description of what I have highlighted sticks out to me(not consciously -- I seemingly randomly look at a word on the screen, and again, it matches up with my thoughts).
I've also felt this with people while tripping, something I'm sure many of you also experience. Thoughts collide, minds merge, words aren't needed, etc. It isn't constant, and it doesn't last for a very long time, but it happens over and over.
Many times, when this happens, I feel like the universe is 'speaking' to me, whatever that's supposed to mean.
I should also say that I also experience deja vu a lot. When I was in high school, I remember dreaming one time about myself walking down my staircase, while whistling the tune to a Journey song(I don't remember which one), falling, and tumbling to my death. These kinds of dreams are very strange because they are so close to reality(many times I have dreams about smoking something and instantly tripping, or about flying around as a turtle, etc.), and they give me literal feelings in my stomach whenever I remember them(usually the day after the dream).
What ends up happening, is that I end up doing what I dreamed about(sorry for any confusion, this doesn't happen very often -- maybe once a month, if that -- it's random), and instantly my mind goes back to the dream, I remember everything, what I do next, etc., then I correct it. Many times it's me being in an accident of some sort, that this happens, but it's also sometimes insignificant -- it might be a conversation I have with my girlfriend, or a drink I pick up at a convenience store.
Anyway, back to synchronicity. I figured now was as good of a time as any to bring back the topic of synchronicity, to see what other people think about it. Carl Jung had a working theory of synchronicity, though I didn't know about it until I started searching for answers.

I experience these on a daily basis. Even while not tripping.
It makes you feel like god or the universe is speaking to you but I really don't know what to think.
Really freaks you out when it happens all the time and makes you wonder what the fuck is going on.
Is reality what you make it? My thoughts seem to control parts of it and makes me feel really really weird.
I also have experienced some really fucking insane deja vu lately. I have literally lived something and watched a video that apparently didn't exist at the time because a few months later I watch the same video and it was being live streamed and just came out that day. I knew everything the dude was going to say before he even said it and I'm positive I didn't watch the video before in a dream I actually am convinced I lived it. My cousin even watched it with me and also recalls watching the video and he has never even done any drugs other then weed. This kind of deja vu never happened to me until after I tried mescaline for the first time and have done it quite a few times since. I literally have lived things before and then they happen exactly the same again. The live stream video really fucking freaked me out though made me feel like I somehow tapped into the future earlier before it ever existed.
May sound crazy but maybe I am crazy.

This reminds me of the onset of my psychosis. I'd be careful with those psychedelics if I were you.

Love is the deep spiritual connection between the self and all things. We are all a part of the same universe.

I think it's beautiful - the synchronicity and deja vu. A random thought that I just had is that maybe deja vu is somehow related to changing the past(?), for those who accept the notion of existence outside of time it wouldn't be too inconceivable i'd imagine.
This also makes me think of the great Japanese animated film Paprika (2006). I've re-watched it recently and I love it. I'd highly recommend it to anyone that hasn't watched it. It kinda fits with the subject

I'm sorry to hear that, and I can completely see how these kinds of things can turn into more than an obsession.
I certainly don't obsess about it, and I hadn't thought about it until yesterday when I saw a pin in one of my jars. I recognize that the thoughts going through my head during these occurrences(usually during a trip of very soon after) aren't normal, but that doesn't mean that I shouldn't talk about it, or try to uncover what it means, if anything -- even if it means nothing to other people.

If you let your mind make connections when they aren't there, it will. I think the biggest danger is when all events and people are talking 'about you'.

Yes.
Once the paranoia kicks in you're on your own.
