Synchronicity, a term coined by Carl Jung, refers to the experience of events occurring together in a meaningful way, although causally unrelated. It doesn’t question causality (cause and effect as the connection of events), nor is serendipity, a mere chance encounter. It is meaning that connects the otherwise unrelated events. And meaning is a construction of the mind. What synchronicity might reveals is that glimpse of our consciousness of the deepness of the inner worlds of thinks and beings, that lattice of connections that lies beneath the surface. After all, everything vibrates in the cosmos, from atoms to beings to stars.
Synchronicity, nicknamed a Cirque in the forest, was a collective creation by
Sandy Buck, Chad Herschler, Sarah Redmond, Tom Jones, Lani Claxton, Steve Wright, Serena Eades, Eilis Carpentier, Mary Burns and Diego Samper.
