This is a great idea. I have too many recent ones to post, but I'll be back in this thread as they occur from here on out. I need to start logging this anyway, lol.

I pay attention to numbers so I often find unlikely patterns that line up. Here's an epic one from last year:

I was in an automobile accident on September 26 which totaled my car (no injuries and not my fault). It took about a month to go through the insurance process and to purchase another used vehicle of the same make and model. I bought the replacement car on October 26 exactly one month from the date of the wreck. The title showed that the replacement car was traded in to the dealer on September 26 (the exact date of my wreck) and later that evening I got an email alert from Copart that my wrecked car has been auctioned that same day (I had put an email alert on it just to see what it sold for).

In case that doesn't make sense:
Sept 26: eventual replacement car traded in to dealer by first owner
Sept 26: my car accident
- exactly one month passes -
Oct 26: I purchase replacement car
Oct 26: wrecked car sold at insurance auction

A multiple a day, every day occurrence, it's just something else for the mind to jump onto you, focus on establishing the firm seat in your self and synchronicity will come and go, let it come and go, but let nothing stay 🌜💙🌛

In my second last trip I ate about 600 mics of very fine acid and an additional 200 mics of a new blotter which was really NBOME. I ingest around 21:30. Hits me like a mega-tsunami not too long after. I put the main lights out in my room, get some of the orange juice and chocolate from the kitchen, and put an audiobook on play because it was the frame of mind I am in. I am stare at the flag decorated in my room, and things begin to take hold of me. I experience serious time-dilation. I lie down on the bed and begin travelling through various dimensions of the same hell of existence. I feel like I am trapped in a way and there is no getting out because my spirit is badly constricted after the innumerable blackouts under drink. It does not know which plane of existence and time-dimension it is in, whereas my physical body is grounded here on Earth. I get repeated thoughts on the lines of, "here is a man who has lost everything", "we told you there is nothing else to it but that you are an alcoholic", "you cannot fight it, you will lose out, you are alcoholic", "you are not like the others". I thought of checking on my phone for some reason and read a message my Father sent, and it reads in his voice, and begins to echo throughout the night. I remain, however, perceptive as ever, and I am eager to see where else I go in me head. There is no such thing as a bad trip. Not soon after, the morning comes, and sitting on my bed, looking at the flags decorated on the wall, I become SOVEREIGN. The design of the Union Jack morphs into a tentacled creature of alien design, like Cthulu. I marvel at its sight, and it communicates using my voice in my head. I can describe its words as categorical beyond a shred of doubt. I study its primitive behaviour. Soon after, I begin to play Cream at Royal Albert Hall 2005. The experience brings me down to tears and I experience a catharsis. I decide its time to get some exercise, so I switch over to a tab on Firefox, and open YouTube. I can observe the digital veins full of colour on the vivid screen of my old MacBook Air. There's a video put up by Austin Goh. I begin to concentrate and get lost in following his guidelines. The man has morphed into a human-table like creature, and I cannot contain my laughter, as he is pressing on me to intensify the exercise, despite getting a glance of the physical damage wrought upon by alcoholism.

The morning is here, and I eat some of the chocolate and am feeling all right, except for this damned tune playing inside my head on repeat for hours on end. I am getting tired but the chemical has me wide awake. Fast forward to the wee hours of the afternoon, I decide to go on a walk because I cannot get any rest, and awareness is as strong as ever, so I set out to visit the local park on a Sunday too. I walk down the streets like as if a man on a mission, and by the half-way point, am walking like if drunk. I reach the park but there is just a great number of people enjoying about with their families on a Sunday evening. I walk towards the centre of the park avoiding eyesight with anyone like the fiend I had become, and take the breathing-mask out, and smell the aroma of the flowers, and feel a jolt of nature spike through the top of my skull. I find a bench to sit, and observe the green-ness of the trees around me, and get lost thinking about the aesthetic contemplation of things again. A sense of unease creeps up eventually, and I shift places, this time I am looking at the children play on the ground, their ebullience does not move me, because from the vibes of those on the next bench, I am not too welcome here. I get up and leave, and come back home, after a short ride on a taxi. My ability to remember directions is better than before, so I have survived through the worst of what alcoholism could have turned me into. I unlock the door and enter, but get the feeling there is something missing. And this, folks, is where I get to contribute to the topic at hand.

Upon returning my awareness is still going on full force. The Sunday outside is as lively as ever, so I take a swig off the orange juice, and go out to observe my neighbours plants and to see them breathe through the dust in the city. The sun has set, what remains is the cool afterglow of the evening fading into the night, and in the skies, I notice two kites preparing for battle despite being way apart each other. The one in the foreground is flying lower than the other, which is high on top where the sight of it can easily get confused for a balloon. Nonetheless, the fight is brewing up, and I can sense it somehow. I am in a state of serious apathy, so I try to ignore it at first, and take some steps walking to and fro one end to the other, as if I hadn't had enough of the walking, or like a bit more of it will dull my senses and I shall finally fall asleep, but of course, in vain.

I think nothing much of it. I decide it is time to go back inside and listen to some tunes to sit out on the coming-down. But right before I enter the door again, I take a moment to stand outside calmly, and observe the two kites once more, ever so apart from each other, and signal to them with the calculated gaze of my eyes, that the battle has begun. I take a moment and acknowledge the individual flying the lower kite at a great distance from me. Then I take a look at the other soaring high above it, and with an imperious look, direct for it to fall out of the sky. I go back inside and think nothing more of it.

Yet my condition is a hyperactive one. I record a short video of talking to myself as a souvenir of this journey, and text my mother asking what is up, my sister wants permission to sell my car off, and I send her the e-mail. This starts a back and forth correspondence which is starting to look like a good distraction but seems entirely pointless, but still, a nice way to be grounded in reality. Everything is over and then I am free again but within the confines of my heightened awareness still buzzing but dying out slowly. I am clocking in over twenty four hours at this point.

I leave my room. Take a look at the tree with the red leaves outside from the window of my kitchen facing a different direction to the terrace. I unlock the door to my house, and go out to take a look at the plants again.

Lo and behold. That fucking kite is fallen down right at the corner of my terrace. I gasped, but felt no surprise. I intended for this to happen. I saw it coming. It occurred as exactly as I had willed. There is a higher power out there, I thought, and dismissed the idea of taking a photograph, which has proven to be a big mistake as I write this, but apathy was quite singular of all them feelings then. Unforgettable for me I assure you.

i have had ALOT of these lately! Had a weird 4in 1 thing happen the past few days. So i start to tell my mother about me not wanting to drink tap water any more  and start drinking distiled (Yes i am a crazy that has come to the decision fluoride in drinking water is no good) So the next morning i go to the basement and there is a flood the water softener broke and spilled water everywhere. The next morning i was listening to a you tube video about water being intelligent from sadhguru in the car with my mother. We get to where we are going i get out of the car and 2 brand new bottles of distilled water sitting right there i could have tripped over them....WATER seemed to be the idea for those few days...

recently like i said its been happening alot like someone posting a post about something i had just been talking about or even the TV finished a sentence 3 or 4 times in 2 days that one was really weird! kinda scary

I have a amazing story that i wouldn't believe if it hadn't happened. My grand father dies my mother left to travel to meet my grandmother... i stayed home with dad so mom gets up there and calls and asked how the number showed up on caller id....it said the first  initial of my grandfather and then the first of my grand mothers and then the last name....JUST as it always had and always did. So my mom says well we got 3 calls in a row up here with OUR house number (like the house calling the house) but the name was different instead of having both my grandfathers and grand mothers initials it ONLY said my grandfathers first and last name...3x in about a hour...my mother says she thought it was my grandfather saying goodbye. I was kinda on the fence with that....

Fast foward a couple years. my father dies So me and mom are at the funeral as everyone saying goodbye i look to my aunt and asked the time it was 11:50 a few more people said goodbye and me and mom were last to say good bye so probilly dead on 12o clock me and mom were infront of my fathers body saying goodbye.....when we get home my mom looks at the phone and starts tearing up....i said whats wrong and she just handed me the phone and guess what 3x missed calls from my house calling my house with dads name on caller ID. at the exact time me and mom were standing in front of his body saying goodbye right at 12 o clock ...I thought well shit my mom was so sure that was grandpa saying goodbye IF dad could say goodbye in any way thats exactly how he would do it!

i have had people say ohh spam calls can have your name show up but NEVER did i ever see my own number calling the caller id (and we get alot of spam calls) AND it only happened those 2 times 1st as soon as grandfather died and 2nd when dad died! that one was a long time ago but its amazing story right and 100% true

Hey! So, one of my synchronicity things is numbers as well. I started seeing repetitive series of numbers so much (777, 666, my birth date) I googled if other people experienced the same things. Long story short, look up "angel numbers".

Discovering this changed my whole fucking life.

I believe there's a LOT more to it than just angels, but there's no way to know for sure. Or as Terrance Mckenna puts it: faires, gnomes, elves. Best way to describe it, because there's nothing else like it.

For the past month when I'm around people I have a deep connection to, I will be thinking about something, then that person will start talking about the EXACT same thing right after. No interruption in between, and no reason for us to be thinking the same thing.

Another is when the lyrics to music will respond to conversations we're having, or will talk about what we're doing. This only happens when the music is put on random though.

Or when I'm thinking about something specific, and the lyrics explain exactly how I feel, how I should feel, or really anything about that subject. That part is hard to explain, but if it happened to you too, it would throw your head thru a loop.

My wife and I do that all the time, and it's not just like normal husband/wife stuff you know they're gonna say.  It will be the most completely random thing and one of us will say it the exact time the other is thinking it. 

The more quiet I can manage to get my mind, the more often it happens.  I think the info is always just floating in the air, so to speak, and you just have to be tuned in to it.

My mind is blasted, i'm way out there, I exspeacially notice synchronicity when i'm high on cannibis or various spice's, all day every day for weeks, and months, and years, co-incidents happen to me one after another, if you could read my mind you would say, "wtf!? everything in this mans life is on time or something!?", i'm serious, if you hang out with me eventually me and some stranger will say the same words though different sentences, or i'll say a sentence and the word I use will line up to the song were listening to in the background, people talk about what I was thinking about that morning, or earlier that week, for years I was thinking people could read my mind but they were just pretending they could'nt, like i made so many mistakes and bad choice's in life they must expose and emmbarass me, they i'm not all that bad, just ignorant was my main problem, but I spied on girls in the bathroom when i was 13 years old and than, one day, everyone can read my mind since i was 20, but maybe they were reading it before than, but now /i don't think people can read my mind, I don't like to think the world revolves around me, too delusional and self-aggrandizing, I wanna tell more about my story but I don't know where to start, i'm diagnosed with schizo-effective disorder, schizo paranoid type, and most accurately, with Psychotic Depression, I hear voices constantly, People I know, People I don'y know, Jesus, Satan, the television and radio talk about what i'm thinking but on a level only I could really understand, fuck, ask me a question about it, I find it interesting!:tongue2:

I wouldn't know where to begin there are so many. A few had one thing after another enfolded within the whole. On one occasion, being sick and tired of low-class next door neighbors, I made a petitionary prayer for a Hindu family with a couple of PhDs, one being a (relatively rare) PhD mental health counselor like myself. A couple of months later a Hindu family moved in (I knew of no others in my vicinity). He was a PhD mathematician who took a job at local Barry University and she was a PhD mental health counselor - just as I had requested! I have never forgotten this and have arrived at a number of possible mechanisms besides a personal God who responds exactly as formulated.

I considered that my desire was actually informed by a precognition of who would move in. Or that my desire was telepathically received by the future neighbors who were guided by the same Self that may have informed me of the existence of such a family but was cued as a desire. In  this case, the Self, or Tao as a guiding principle is still a God-concept. Or was I clairvoyantly perceiving a transaction on the sale of the house next door during its closing process in real time but experiencing a physical event in time as a private desire?

I'll never know and I never had an opportunity to discuss it because I divorced my ex wife a couple of years after the neighbors moved in, then he died. I was disoriented for years after I moved out and the woman never responded to my outreach on Facebook.

There are hundreds of synchronicities some of which I elaborate in my unfinished autobiography. After I left my camping partner in Yellowstone Park where he took a job, I drove home from Wyoming to New Jersey alone. I was listening to an 8-track tape of the Grateful Dead's Europe '72 album in late July of 1973 (a couple days before the Watkins Glen Grateful Dead show in NY) in my 1972 green Fiat 850 Spider automobile. I was listening to the song Jack Straw as I passed through Cheyenne, Wyoming and at the exact moment that my little 2-seater car rattled across  the tracks on a central train depot in Cheyenne where I was surrounded by boxcars that read Great Northern Railroad, the following lyrics blared from my car's speakers:

Leavin’ Texas, fourth day of July,
Sun so hot, the clouds so low, the eagles filled the sky.
Catch the Detroit lightnin’ out of Santa Fe,
The Great Northern out of Cheyenne, from sea to shining sea.


Mind-blowing is an understatement! :eek: BUT, there were additional equally amazing coincidences on that long lonely trip home. :yesnod:

I Don't know what the craziest moment of synchronicity was, so many robotrips where I'd be thinking positive profound thoughts of God and enlightenment, and than the air conditioning unit would turn on automatically and all was power and glory in it's loud "OOOOMMMMM!!!".:grin:

But there are countless little ones, I first said to myself "my life is surely syncronistic" a few years ago when I was walking along the creek in the city and and I was joking to myself "maybe I'll quit smoking at age 60, 61, 62 etc",,and written on the sidewalk with every number I thought was written "60, 61, 62..." like literally with every step was the sight of the letters where my thoughts, that's my life everyday, honestly this coincidental events are normal to me, a mystery, seemingly supernatural, I wonder if you can test me with this somehow?

I hear people talking about what i'm thinking as I walk by them, there were even little girls saying "...he's still listening over other peoples conversations to hear what there saying!",,,embarrassed and knowing they were not talking about me, yet spiritually they were talking about me.

If I'm walking down the sidewalk and I see something written in chalk it coincides with my thoughts,,, now you all are gonna write weird messages on the street hoping some schizo like me reads it, go ahead, I would do the same. (Though in a positive manner with useful or funny advice!)

Quote:

It's Nature, some would say it's God working, they might be right, but the simplist answer is that it's the nature of the universe, I Don't know if everything was meant to be the way it is, but I had a dream the other night where God was sending out waves of energy that would control people's thoughts, including mine, we were all shooting and killing each other, but it was God's doing,,,there was'nt even a reasonable reason to why we were killing each other, but maybe God controls it all. :shrug:

Another reason might be that when I was younger my brother incouraged me to yell random things at people, like if you see an older couple shout to them "hey mom and dad!",,,or when we were driving he insisted I yell "eat you vegetables!" really loud as we slowly drove past someone, I did just that, so maybe it's karma, you know, it's nature/karma, I approved of such bizare behaviour know it's turned on me, just gotta roll with the punches, and like I always say, "oh well, life sucked anyways!".:crazy2:

I had a girl friend pass away tragically almost 10 years ago on December 10t 2010. Her passing was a really long story of addiction/depression disease she was only 25. It haunted me for a long time and several years later after dealing with similar issues in my own life I met my wife after a spree of dating on December 10th 2016. Now almost 4 years later we are married with a new baby boy I had never thought I would have kids or my life would change in this way. We are in our own home now and I got up there in the attic to do a little work and stamped on the plywood of the roof is my birthday on some of the sheets MAY 27/97 im 27/84... also on some of the other sheets was my mothers birth day MAY/18/97... just a few things that make me think theres alot more going on than meets the eye...

I don't think people are writing things on the sidewalk with YOU in mind. That notion is called 'ideas of reference' and is a hallmark of paranoia. We humans are so similar for the most part that many of our thoughts are virtually identical. As to random numbers, given the infinity of numbers on about 100, maybe up to 106 or so (like my late Great Uncle Herman who lived to 106) are relevant numbers for human age. So seeing 60, 61, 62 applies to a thought you had regarding an unhealthy addiction. YOU attributed connection but if the outer chalk coincided in time with that inner thought it was synchronistic.

Also, we hear what we want to hear. I walked past a couple of female grad students talking decades ago. I thought I heard one of them say Plato, an interest of mine so I slowed my pace. But two things occurred to me: (1) I was in the College of Education building and (2) I was on the Early Childhood Education 1st floor. The student was actually talking about Play-Doh™!  :foreheadslap: Years later when walking through a cool book-lined pub in Amherst, MA while visiting my BFF, I walked past a table of college kids where one guy actually DID say Plato and at that moment I remembered the Play-Doh™ moment in grad school.

If one understands that C.G. Jung derived his concept of synchronicity (and Self) from the Chinese concept of Tao (through Sinologist Richard Wilhelm who translated the I Ching), then one has a vet Far Eastern God-concept that is refreshingly devoid of Near Eastern and Western personification of God as well as Monistic (you don't really read of a Devil in Taoism).  http://www.ralphmag.org/BN/why.html ; One does not have to declare oneself a Taoist if this description makes sense. Tao means The Way, and early Christianity also referred to its followers as followers of The Way. As BE HERE NOW pointed out, "...The Way is The Way is The Way...It's the same Way!..."

I have a lot of little stories.

One really meaningful one and the first one in my life was a powerful negative experience that seemingly proved there being a power to certain moral codes, and maybe a spirit that overwatches things, maybe God himself.

I started trying smoking a couple times at age 14ish, and not knowing anyone to get me cigarettes I decided I was going to steal a pack from my mom. So I steal a pack out of her carton (which was full-ish but not full, seemed like a good pile to take from logically), take the cellophane off, and smoke a cigarette or two... hide the pack in a drawer until the next day.

Doesn't my mom's pack of cigarettes she left on the counter go missing the following morning? Doesn't she also have only smoked one or two cigarettes out of the pack and opened the tin foil on the same left side I chose to? (probably just influenced by her, or both of us by western latin language reading :p)

So she looked through my stuff and found my smokes and her & my dad are yelling at me not only about stealing, but about why I'm STILL LYING about an irrelevant detail that I stole a fresh pack out of a carton & not the opened pack on the counter (I SWEAR I DID, IVE NEVER SLEPT WALKED OR HAD A FALSE MEMORY IN MY EFFING LIFE!) It was like the sneakable pack I stole magically turned into the pack that went missing off the counter... maybe a coincidence or maybe straight up reality being edited, I'll never know.


So yeah, that seemed really powerful & miraculous.


Lately though I've just been having a more mundane phenomenon of seeing someone that looks like someone I know... and then a minute later seeing the actual person they remind me of. First time was written off by I don't know the dude that well and maybe he had a twin brother he was hanging with and I just saw him first, but then a bunch more hit me in the following weeks like WHOA


Actually, the post above reminded me that my mom bought me "Be Here Now" for Christmas and when I opened it I told her "this guy died a few days ago" and when we checked the date she swears she randomly decided to go for that book on that day.
