despite my best hopes, this thread has gone a long way towards convincing me that synchronicity is just chance plus an overactive imagination

They result in ecstatic moments and an elevated perspective that rises above whatever sickness that intentionally prevents such high states of mind in others. Those who reject meaningful coincidences, the "non-causal connective principle" of Synchronicity, suffer from a deficit in the Intuitive function. They also tend to be among the most Sensate individuals I have ever met, whose lack of Intuition - the doorway to Transcendental Vision-Logic - is sadly barred. Those poor individuals cannot, constitutionally 'connect-the-dots,' and they critically, and often hostilely point an accusatory finger at those who can, saying that they are constructing a psychotic reality, because they cannot see what others do. Those people are cynical, angry, depressive and apparently envious of others who can perceive the causally empirical reality AS WELL AS a higher reality. The purely empirical mind can function well enough in the world of physical cause-effect, but they are entirely hindered by the mind-body dialectic, relegating all mental and higher mental (spiritual) phenomena to dimensions much lower than the ones to which they rightfully belong.
