Synchronized visions ?

I can't find any free chat thread in here so i'll just post a new topic.
I tripped with my gf last weekend. Lying on the beach and looking at the stars and listening to the waves haha. was great. But, something funny happened.
We were both closing our eyes at some point after an endless amount of talking. I saw girls in short dresses/skirts, kinda in a silhouhette in colors. And they were dancing. I was enjoying it when my gf suddenly said "I can see girls dancing"
I was so surprised, i had kept silent. I hadn't said anything about it, yet we were seing the same thing in our minds. Synchronized visions?? haha
Anyone had that ? What a crazy coincidence

Same drug/dose/setting/state of mind and light entry to the eyes could definitely make you see a very, VERY similar picture.
Also, the more time you spend with someone the more your bodies and minds sync up for sure (ever said the same thing as your best friend at exactly the same time? happens to me alllll the time )

Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events as meaningfully related, whereas they are unlikely to be causally related. The subject sees it as a meaningful coincidence, although the events need not be exactly simultaneous in time. The concept of synchronicity was first described by Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychologist, in the 1920s.[1]
The concept does not question, or compete with, the notion of causality. Instead, it maintains that just as events may be connected by a causal line, they may also be connected by meaning. A grouping of events by meaning need not have an explanation in terms of cause and effect.
In addition to Jung, Arthur Koestler wrote extensively on synchronicity in The Roots of Coincidence.
I have this book. I ordered it off of Amazon, it's fucking amazing!

That's very interesting. My father has studied Jung for decades; maybe it's time to borrow some books.

Amazing 
I will soon trip with my wife. It is her first time so she will be eating 2 grams, while I will eat 5g. The best thing is, these are GDL Strain Cubensis that we both are growing (well, we already have some dried ) so the fact that the both of us have put our time and energy on them I am sure it will make a difference 
I can't wait!

Jung is great man, definitely something everybody should read. He had a very keen understanding of the mind/soul of man.

Sycronicities like that are definitely not uncommon. On a trip in the woods last fall my wife and I were looking up at the branches of a red pine and I closed my eyes and imagined myself standing in a desert looking across a landscape filled with joshua trees. Just then my wife exclaimed that the branches of the red pine looked like thousands of joshua trees.

I believe we all can be in sync every moment of everyday. It's just up to us to tune into it and be aware of it's cosmic existence.

My wife and I saw elaborate cartoon elephants from India in full regalia in our daughter's room blinds when we had an acid trip in 1990. It was totally normal to us to have the same vision at the same time.
Since then we mostly have our own independent thoughts. But occasionally there is no separation.

i ate some really clean and visual acid with my girlfriend last year on the beach. when we walked back up to the apartment, we were literally floored with visuals as we stared at the ceiling while laying on the ground. we both simultaneously shared visions of mayan/aztec gods, tile patterns of flower of life, and snowflake-esque patterns. we also saw glowing neon blue double helix lifeforms swimming in the ocean at night. oh, and we saw animated mayan civilizations in the cliffs during the day.
the only visual not shared was when she saw the "net of indra" in the sky. it's basically a web of interconnected red lasers with spiraling mandalas at various center points...
we weren't surprised at the time to be seeing the same thing. it was truly amazing, and i find this to be a fascinating topic

I think psychedelics help us tune into a part of reality that we can't normally see so it doesn't surprise me at all that different people see the same thing.

This is a great thread. I've experienced this before when tripping with certain people. It makes sense though when you think about it.

My grandad (who is the most sober person I've ever seen) told me this story once about his twin nephews. One of them had stomach ulcers and the other could sense when his brother was in pain.
They tested this with both of them being in different city's. The nephew without the stomach problems would write down when he felt like his brother was in pain. The nephew would then write down the times he was literally feeling pain. Surprisingly the times they wrote down corresponded very accurately.
