Today’s Notes:
I – “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:12 – NIV)
II – “For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”
(Matthew 18:20 – NKJV)
III – “This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
(II Corinthians 13:1 – KJV)
IV – Quantum Theory
Around the same time, the world was learning about quantum theory, and the concept of a quantum field, or source plenum, from which all matter arises. With it came evidence that we’re all participants in an observer-based reality, of sorts; that our focused attitudes, intentions, and actions may interact with an unseen mechanism to create our personal and collective reality. It confirmed Jung’s observations, and he referred to this field as unus mundus – a unified world. In this unified world, coincidence is only an indicator of an underlying reality.
Jung’s observations were based on the rejection of a coincidental, one-dimensional life, and instead, the recognition that we engage in the world in a very complex way through our psyches, our energies, our emotions, and our actions and experiences. Seeing life this way, it becomes less a series of coincidences mixed with our projections and manipulations, and instead of a far more interactive (albeit far more mysterious) experience. Life becomes a unified co-creation that is answering your questions. Life is reflecting to you what it is you need to know.
– Robert Kopecky
V – “Continuous creation is to be thought of not only as a series of successive acts of creation but also as the eternal presence of the one creative act.”
– Carl Jung
VI – THE SYNCHRONISTIC MODEL
Jung based the synchronistic model on three characteristics of spiritual potential.
1. MEANINGFUL COINCIDENCE
Random events happen sometimes with very specific, personal meaning.
2. CAUSAL CONNECTION
Despite there being no apparent material cause and effect, there is an undeniably profound personal significance, and so an apparently intentional connection at play.
3. LUMINOSITY
The indication that all of this happens within a kind of shared field of divinity, in communion with a greater whole. Across most life experiences, these three aspects actually do work to describe something that happens in everyone’s life, even though no one knows exactly how.
VII – “In every moment, the Universe is whispering to you. You’re constantly surrounded by signs, coincidences, and synchronicities, all aimed at propelling you in the direction of your destiny.”
– Denise Linn
