    Back when I was more on the depressive side of life I looked at a nihilist meme. It was a picture of a person standing at the foot of the hill and asking "why bother?". At the same time I had a video running of Kennedy speaking about the moon missions. And he remembered a conversation he had with a mountain climber he asked "why do you want to climb the mountain?". The climber replied "Why, because it´s there, I want to climb it." That was such a weird moment for me back then but it provided me with an answer for why to live, because life is here.

      I've never liked that response because it can be applied to anything, even negative stuff.
      Why did you attack that person with a skateboard? Because he was there.
      Why did you burn down the building? Because it was there.
      Why do you force white people to say "black lives matter" under duress? Because they're there.

    The only one I can think of still gives me chills. I'm getting goosebumps as I type:
    I'm Irish and back in 1995, aged 14, I went on a family holiday to Florida. We stayed in an apartment on Anna Marie Island on Florida's west coast. There were 2 bedrooms. My parents had one room and my younger siblings had the other room. I was the oldest, so I slept on the pull down bed which was out in the main living area. On the first night, I had this lucid dream in which an anonymous boy was standing beside my bed and staring at me. It was extremely clear and I remember sitting up in bed (in my dream) with tears pouring out of one eye. I lifted my hand up to wipe my eye. This action woke me up but I found myself literally sitting up and wiping my eye, which had tears in it. I completely freaked out and went hammering on my parents' door. I explained to them what happened. I noticed my mum looking at me weirdly. I asked her what was wrong. She said she was also having a nightmare about some young boy standing beside her. Weird. I slept on the floor of my siblings' room after that. Freaked me out.

      Neil Kelly reminds me of when I was young, my brother and I shared a room. I woke up and he was standing beside his bed staring at the wall. I told him to go to bed but he just continued to stand there. So I went to my parents room to tell them what was happening and found my brother in bed with them because he had a nightmare earlier. 😯

    I’ve had so many synchronicities in my life, even now as an adult but the one that meant the most to me (I didn’t know about synchronicities then) was on my 17th birthday. As my parents sang me “Happy Birthday” at night as we were out of town, 1 by 1, 17 butterflies came to my window. It was night time. It wasn’t moths. It was big beautiful butterflies. Before that happened, I was sad because I had just lost my grandmother and told my parents I wish there was a such thing where our passed loved ones could visit us. I told them that when I see butterflies, I think of her. My dad then said, maybe she’ll visit you as a butterfly if it’s real. Then the butterflies showed up. They stayed at the window for about half an hour too. We were all in shock. Still don’t know what to think of it.

    I was in a bar with a friend, we had just come to the end of our drinks and had run out of money. Jokingly I said "wouldn't it be great if there was enough money for another round of drinks underneath the ashtray" we laughed.
    I couldn't resist the urge, however ridiculous it was, to look underneath the Ashtray, so I did. As crazy as it sounds and much to our surprise, underneath the ashtray there was the exact amount of money in change for one more round of beers between the 2 of us!!!

    A few weeks ago I watched a video describing one of Carl Jung's own experiences with synchronicity, in which a patient of his described to him a vivid dream of a scarab beetle she had. Jung then looked to his window to see that there was in fact a kind of scarab beetle, rare in that part of europe, trying to enter his window at that very moment.
    That was late at night for me. I went to bed not long after. As I was dressing for work the next morning I noticed a large, shiny beetle was flying just outside my window. It was determined to enter my room, just as Jung's beetle had been. I looked up beetles native to my area immediately after and discovered that the one I saw was indeed a member of the scarab family.

    I met this girl who worked at the same place as me and we started seeing each other. We had literally had everything in common, we even both dropped out of college for the same reasons. Our mother’s were both of aboriginal ancestry and were hair dressers and raised sheep and goats. Our fathers were both moustached white carpenters even working in the same city at the time. We even had the same personality flaws which lead to the ending of our relationship. Before this I had always wondered if I would ever find a partner who really understood me. Maybe we understood each other all too well.
    Edit: I recently remembered that our mothers also both had llamas and both had male Great Pyrenees farm dogs that they were looking to re-home because they were both selling their farms and moving into houses in town at the same time.

      It's typically best when two people can make up for where the other is lacking, I think the old biblical idea of that is very interesting; where before Eve, Adam was wondering aimlessly trying to find a mate unsuccessfully. And after several failed attempts God divided Adam and created another human out of a part of him. Meaning that we as a species are torn in two, forever destined to seek out the person that fills out the part that's missing or lacking. We're dependent on each other because we are each other.

    Synchronicity has gotten to the point where I don't even give it a second thought anymore. I shouldn't have my mind blown to one of the underlining foundations on how our reality is structured. It use to give me more faith in myself, the universe, and the infinite interconnecting eternal essence some call God. But, it's creates an odd situation where my faith has a bit of dependency on an outside influence rather than me just having 100% faith 100% of the time regardless of what is happening or not. Reality can be extremely surreal at times. Throw psychedelics into the mix and life is changed forever.

The strength of my belief in a possible fiction. I look at it like a placebo that works for me. I do believe we are not just "meat machines", that we have spiritual abilities, and that life is a miracle and as we broaden our consciousness we can perceive more miracles. I believe all life is connected, and we can access all knowledge at times. But I don't intellectually believe in God as an all powerful entity, even though that's how I conceptualize this Oneness we're all part of.

    Gonna share my most recent synchro with you guys, and it's very deep.
    My uncle died with chron's disease (it was actually pneumonia infection after a sucessful stomach surgery due to chrons just basically "unlucky"). He was 38, he worked as salesman at the mall in a music/book store, and at weekends or so he would play at night clubs with his bands, he was a musician and had multiple projects throught his life, althought he had one with this local band in my city, in which he gave most of the ideas, called the "Candyman Club", they do covers of mostly 80's pop and rock music. One of his favorite songs ever was Save a Prayer - Duran Duran.
    So there was this one night, last year, when Candyman would play at a small pub, and they would do a small tribute to Gus (me uncle). Me and my dad were undecisive about going, but we ended up giving in. That's when something odd happened, on the radio we were listening in the car on the way there, Say a Prayer started playing, my dad, with somewhat of an ironic point of view said "look, Gus really wanted us to go". As we get in the pub and the show goes on, the frontman starts speaking about Gus, the things he used to say, and how one time he said to them " Look, i only play with you guys because we get to play Say a Prayer". Obviously Gus was being sarcastic, as he was the big head of the project at the time, they used to call him "the Oracle". So they play Say a Prayer, in tribute to him, and me, dad and my aunts obviously cry like babies.
    One of my distant aunts who was there, is known to be a "medium", she can sometimes see spirits and such, and she's highly participative in her Umbanda group as a "catalyst" of sorts, means she gets to recieve spirits to manisfest thought her body at times during the events. She said to me, when we were outside smoking, privately:
    " I saw Gus next to the table where we were, he was happy to see us".
    I'm the only other person in the family that can play music, so i feel rather "responsible" for his heritage and to keep his legacy of making music, i'm struggling and unemployed because i really can't think of doing something else with my life, and no one listens to my music. I might be wrong, maybe i should be working with my degree or something else, but i feel like it's worth believing a dream, for him, he dedicated his life to music, he never got rich, or famous, and he didn't want that, all he wanted was to able to live of music. He will never be forgotten by those who knew him, he never made a single enemy, and he was just a funny creature you couldn't spend 10 minutes with him without him doing something silly to make you laugh and cheer you up. Thank you for your time, i really needed somewhere to put this things.

      In this case the fantasy is broken though, the Hip Hop elements makes them more tangible, it's not as dark or etherical, it's more like watching the modern world from a conscious self.

      I have many, many different inspirations. I listen to things like synthwave (HOME, A.l.i.s.o.n, Timecop199something) up to nu metal ( Deftones, Slipknot, Mudvayne). I also grew up listening to a lot of 80's because of my dad, like R.E.M, Depeche Mode, New Order... I listen to a looooot of different genres, i even dig some reggae roots sometimes, it depends on the day and my mood. But whwnever i'm making my own music, i don't really think about anything specific, i try to let it flow with whatever i have inside me and what i know how to do. Some of the drum elements in some tracks are very similar to what the present trap scene comes up with. I don't dig most of the mainstream stuff, but i'm a big fan of Lil Peep and Juice WRLD, and some other underground "emo" trapper like Convolk, Guardin, sewerperson, nothing,nowhere.
      I try to make it so my tracks go away from the generic "Lil peep type beat" etc, and instead just borrow a bit of the elements it has. I'm not yet sure when i'm about to start the voice recordings and such... I would've started sooner if it wasn't for COVID because i need to go over a friend's house who is a producer and has recording gear... but i hope soon, i'mma send you for sure when they're done.

    My experience...
    One week in college, I was doing research about German expressionist art, specifically looking into the magazine called "Simplicissimus." One week, a professor I was working with took a work trip to Germany, going to the exact spot that magazine was released. He managed to find a small store selling reprints of the magazine and bought one, bringing it back to the states with him. When I got excited to see that he actually brought an issue back, he said that he didn't even know what the magazine was, saying, "you've heard of this?" It is mind boggling that he unknowingly brought back a random historical art magazine from the exact place that it was released just a week after me studying it.

When I went to pick it up I got a Bermuda nickel back in my change. I'd never seen one before in my life. It had a tropical fish on it, and a profile image of Queen Elizabeth. About half an hour later we were clearing out a pile of boxes and junk that no one had touched in over ten years. We got to the bottom, and there on the cement floor next to the wall was a dusty old Bermuda nickel. One had been sitting in the basement for years, just waiting to be discovered, the other was in active circulation, but they both found me in the same hour of the same day. I'd never seen one before, and I've never seen one since. My Dad and I never did figure out what the universe was trying to tell us! Aside from maybe take a vacation, lol.

      i think I like to believe in this type of stuff but we always have to consider the confirmation bias. how many times do you think you see the word astral in a day normally? some people couldn't even tell you. but if you have it in mind, and are thinking about it your mind will look for it. I've experimented even on myself and it's always 50/50. I consider things I thought were signs in the past and look at them in the future when I'm not actively looking for a sign yknow

  • @HankMeyer
    @HankMeyer 4 года назад +55

    My theory about synchronicity is that it's a sign that the universe is a dream. Albeit one being had by a much vaster and more sophisticated mind.
    In a dream, the world around you reflects your own thoughts back at you in the form of circumstance. This happens because the mind generating the dream world is the same mind that controls the character from whose perspective the dream is being experienced.
    Synchronicity is the same kind of relationship. This is a variation on the theory that the universe is a simulation, but I think it's more realistic to call it a dream, because a dream is a naturally occurring simulation, and it seems to me to be more likely that naturally occurring simulations are more common than artificially built ones, and so a person is more likely to find themselves living in one than in a computer simulation.
    This would also explain the rare instances of foreknowledge of future events. Since the mind of circumstance allocates a portion of its processing time to your personal experience, you can occasionally get brief glimpses of the events it's planning.
    There are also some famous examples of novelists writing fictitious stories that later events ended up matching in astonishing detail. What I'd like to know is, did they mistake prophecy for imagination, or did reality mistake their imagination for reality's plans?

      As the ghost of Carl Jung, I've been studying everything, but of recent my focus has been this dream, and trying to understand how it works, and maybe what it means, if anything. The more I delve into these Aetheric mysteries, the more my sleeping dreams bleed into this waking dream, reducing through the process the sacred consistency. Another side effect of this is noticing the Mandela Effect quite frequently.

    You know that green moth in the thumbnail? That's a luna moth, which is interestingly the first experience I ever had with synchronicity. I was a young teen, doing the dishes at the kitchen sink. Over the sink was a window overlooking the porch, and I noticed in the corner, this gigantic, fluffy green insect I'd never seen before. Pretty like a butterfly, fuzzy like a moth. As I stared in awe, it fluttered, and I realized it was trapped beneath a dusty cobweb in the corner of the windowsill. So I went outside, and took a little stick and peeled the web away, and up close it was stunning, and it was so calm! It didn't fly away immediately so I coaxed it into my hand, and I was amazed at how docile it was, I'd never seen a bug so chill about being handled. It took me a few years to find out what the species was, and I learned that they don't have proboscis so they basically starve to death once they become moths, and I found it beautifully tragic. A few years later I was home from school sick with the flu at the lakehouse, and I heard something pretty big hit the window, and it was a luna moth. I was thrilled and let it inside, it flew around and even landed on me and hung out, I snapped some pictures and then walked it out into the woods as far as I could go, and I shut off all the outside lights so it wouldn't come back. They live such short lives, it should be free! But it came back the next night, and I took it into the woods again to let it go. Every night I was sick it came, and the morning i woke up and felt better, I found it dead next to my bedroom window. Like it spent its life comforting me. I put it's body in a mentos box and buried it. Note that this happened while I was at my granddaddys lakehouse, so it wasn't even the same place I saw the first one. It always felt very meaningful to me.
    Needless to say this video had me riveted.

At some later time the small moment that I saw with in my dream would occur in the same exact way. The one occurrence of this that I can still remember is that at some point in the 1st grade I had a dream of holding a hard cover orange book while sitting at a small table, then the dream ended. It wasn't till I was in the 4th grade during a math lesson that I held a math book that had an orange hard cover and I was sitting at a table that happen to look the exact same as it did in my dream.

    My dad and I discovered the Pleiades constellation for the first time the same way at the same age;
    The moment after explaining to my step brother what a synchronicity is he pointed to a bush and was like "do you see that bird" and I saw something that looked like a bird and nodded yes, then a bird flew out of the same bush and I realized what I was looking at wasn't a bird. I told him I looked at the wrong thing and he said he pointed at the thing I saw that I thought was a bird and didn't realize it wasn't a bird until the actual bird flew away, meaning we experienced a weird synchronicity right after talking about it;
    Once in highschool I saw a couple holding hands and really envied them, and not even two minutes later this random, cute girl came up to me, grabbed my hand and pretended to be my girlfriend until I got to my class. To this day I don't know why that happened, I think it was a dare or something;

    I more often notice synchronicities in what humanity focuses on, in completely unrelated ways.
    Ever since 4th or 5th grade, I've had prophetic dreams. Dreams where my dreaming mind seems to overlap with my waking mind sometime after the dream. The Dreams usually aren't very detailed, but this has led to a time paradox before, but that's a different story.
    I'd never really told anyone about it, and living with my parents in midsummer quarantine, I decided to talk to my father about it. I told him about the dreams, and how they weren't often useful, and we had some interesting discussions on humanity being partially future-telling.
    The very next day, while watching a RUclipsr and his group of friends play a video game, one if the friends mentioned that exact phenomenon; of them having short dreams that show up randomly as bits and pieces of their life later on.
    Something they had likely never mentioned before, and that they described EXACTLY as how it happens to me. And they mentioned it *_One. Day. Later._*

    I feel like I mix up synchronicity and deja vu a lot. Like I would have dreams about things I would be doing years later. It would be like 5 dimensional screenshots where I knew what I was experiencing at that momemnt from all senses and emotions. I guess that feeling is like a very delayed version of synchronicity. It's like my memories have saved future events in my past self and I immediately remember that last time I predicted that event in the past. Can't think of anything specific, but video games come to mind and being asked questions. In those moments I would experience psychosis for a good 10 minutes (feeling as though I left my body and I was actually observing myself in the third person).

    Awesome vid, Max 🦋. As for a personal experience with synchronicity, well, I started the year 2020 in Huatulco, Mexico. I was there for the first week of January and one ofmy Christmas gifts that I brought on the trip with me was Sandra Kynes' Connecting with Sea Magic. That book is mainly about how connecting with th sea can help us relax and find answers within ourselves. I was reading the chapter about seashells, and it was written that sometimes, a seashell can be a message the universe is sending us about our state of mind. Later that day, I was swimming in the sea ( Huatulco has a beautiful beach), and I saw this amazing conch shell that rolled to my feet. One of my hobbies is collecting seashells, and that conch would have been perfect on my desk. I picked it up, and brought it back to the room. This is when I noticed that it still smelled like rotten fish, and there was indeed some flesh left. I tried to clean it a few times with no results. I had to burry it on shore on the day we left, but I also came to realized that the conch was a message to me that said that I could never let go of some rather traumatic events if I held on to the past like I did and that even if said events shaped who I am, I had to leave it all behind. 🐚🧜🏼‍♀️

    Not related at all but thought i'd share. I was on holiday in Spain when I was about 15 years old, I came back to my apartment one night after drinking a good few pints( might have drank other stuff like shots or cocktails I can't remember). Anyway I was sleeping on the futon in the front room of the apartment, soon as I lay my head down I must have drifted into one of those light sleeps that you have on airplanes where you wake suddenly and have what seems like really quick dreams. I began to feel as if I was levitating off the couch and when I opened my eyes and there I was hovering mid-air in the front room of the apartment, what I would now call a "vortex"(after watching one sci-fi movie too many) opened up and began swirling on the wall in front of me and I then began floating upright and gravitating towards the black hole in the wall. Just before I reached it I woke up and ran down the hall to my brothers room almost frantic ha I can't remember if I woke in the middle of the room where I was floating or off the couch, and although I know it was a dream it didn't feel like one. I chalk it up to the warm weather and alcohol but i have never experienced anything like that.

    Probably my most prominent experiences with synchronicity is with my moms siblings. My uncle, who I somewhat knew but wasn’t exactly close with, appeared in my dream and we talked for a while. He commented on how nice my hair was, said the silver hairs add to it. He said goodbye, specifically for the final time, and I woke up. The next day my mom comes into the car crying and when I ask why she tells me my uncle is dying and he doesn’t have much time left. The other experience is with my aunt, who I was really close with as she’d been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. It was another dream where me and my aunt simply talked, I don’t even really remember the details of it all. I do remember her complimenting my hair like my uncle and saying goodbye. When I woke up my mother burst into my room and told me that my aunt was dying and we needed to go see her in the hospital. The difference between these two experiences is that my aunt didn’t die and it bewilders me on what changed between her and my uncle. Not that I mind, I don’t think I was ready to say goodbye.

I can't recommend his content highly enough, I've learned a great deal about things like story structure, and the importance of a logical through-line and character consistency from him. His critiques of Star Wars: The Last Jedi and response series to hbomberguy regarding Dark Souls 2 are both excellent; I'd suggest listening to them while playing a game, or working out, whatever floats your boat.

    My BEST synchronicity story: I ate some shrooms, learned a bit about myself, 2 words stuck in my head from that trip 'HUNGER' and 'IMPATIENCE'. I went to a Tool concert in Las Vegas. In the airport the song 'Hungry like the Wolf' came on. Then when I got to the hotel the song came on again. It was following me. I sat down at a cafe and ordered some food. A lady behind me was pulling a full Karen saying her food was ordered an hour ago and that it was ridiculous that she should have to wait so long, etc. I turn to look at her, she was wearing wolf ears and a tail -- she was HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF.
    A week later I had a dream about being chased by a white wolf in a forest thinking it wanted to eat me but instead it was trying to play.

    I've always been a very skeptical person, didn't really believe in anything spiritual or ghosts etc. I'm not religious in any organized/traditional sense of the word. I've had a few weird experiences with my girlfriend, though. The first one involved us both seeing an "orb" of sorts fly around on the back porch of a friend's house. We weren't dating at the time, we weren't high or anything, and we both saw it plain as day for 30 seconds+ moving around the back yard. It was not a firefly, it seemed almost more akin to an erratically moving, silent stealth drone with a slowly blinking light on it. Haven't figured that one out to this day.
    The second experience wasn't that weird, but oddly enough, we did see a giant green luna moth outside of the restaurant we went to on our first date. That's partly why the thumbnail for this video caught my eye. My girlfriend's name is Jennifer, as well, and she has discussed us getting tattoos of said moth. I think I still have a picture of it on a Drive account.
    The most uncanny one was one day while visiting my aforementioned girlfriend in another city she was living in for college, we were discussing how we were sad I'd be leaving to go home soon, worried that it'd be forever until we could live near one another, etc.--mushy stuff like that. Well, on our way home, a homeless man stops us out of the blue and tells me that I "didn't need to hold onto her hand like that because she's not going anywhere." He went on for a couple minutes about how I looked worried about her and how I didn't need to be--basically the same kind of things we had just been talking about. This one kinda freaked me out a little bit, but it was a positive message and we're still together so maybe he was right? No harm no foul.
    After witnessing these things, I'm still a rather skeptical fella', but I'm much more open to the idea that there may be things going on "behind the scenes" that we're not necessarily privy to. And, yes, my girlfriend has gotten me to read a decent amount of Carl Jung since then.

    Another time I dreamed about the cover and titles of the first "Pokemon" movie weeks before it was announced. I told my mom the next day and she treated it with the same respect one treats any childish dream. Two weeks later, she handed me a newspaper that confirmed what I described.
    I coined the term "Schwifty" in high school (pre-2003) and was surprised to see a whole Rick and Morty episode about it many years later.
    There are loads of other examples of weird coincidences; I'm fully convinced of the "collective unconscious" as a means of accessing information that shouldn't be physically available to an individual. I think as quantum theoru becomes quantum reality, we'll be able to describe those threads with much more clarity.

    I don't generally believe in stuff like prophetic dreaming, and usually just chalk most of that up to happenstance, but right on my birthday in 2011, I had a dream that I walked to the house of some family members that lived out of state, who I had not seen, or even thought about for maybe five years at that point. As I entered their home, we gathered around a long dining room table, and they had something important to tell me. Just before they told me what it was, I woke up (of course). A week later, I get a phone call, and a great aunt who I had never met before called me to tell me that my grandmother had passed away (on the night of my birthday). I had not seen this grandmother since I was five years old, and the last contact I previously had with her was almost twenty years previously. Likely just a completely random event, but it's hard to forget when things align like that. You could argue that I was just feeling sentimental around my birthday, so that was the reason for the dream, but if that was actually the case, it was an outlier. I don't typically start dwelling on family around the holidays or birthdays, especially those I don't really have any contact with anyway.

    Make of this what you will. When i was probably 12 or 13 i went on a school trip to the isle of white. It was a camp type thing with various physical activities for kids to do, like climbing, absailing etc. One day we were visiting the surrounding beaches being given a tour by the camps guides and we stopped at a particular spot where we could see some interesting erosion. One of the guides was talking about the erosion and the sea and whatnot and another one of the guides who was a young guy climbed on top of a boulder. Once he was on top i looked down at the ground where the boulder was and the rocks were jagged and sharp. I immediately thought to myself "if this guy jumps off he is going to break his leg".
    The young guy then says out loud "hehe dont look guys i might break a leg" in a joking manner...... He then jumps down from the boulder.....
    I remember seeing his leg split apart and it almost had a yellow like appearence to it, however immediately after witnessing that i had to turn away as i was sick from the sight of it. The young chap was screaming in agony and we then learned about air ambulances as we were led away and watches a helicopter air lift him to a hospital.

Just think of the old playing cards analogy; you shuffle a deck of cards and draw five off the top, you notice its a royal flush. "Wow, what are the odds?!", we say. The odds are exactly the same as drawing an 2, 5, 8, K, and 10 (all of various suites). But we don't think that is special in anyway, though its just as "rare".

Used to chalk it down to coincidence but it literally happens so often and has done for so long it really made me start to question coincidences in general.
    I also often dream about really specific things and when I wake up I already know that I’ll end up experiencing or seeing these that day.
    The last major one was about 3 weeks ago. Had a very vivid dream of being inside this cathedral (I’m not religious and have never been interested in religious architecture) and it was architecturally beautiful and grand. I remember the bells ringing in my dream and I said hey it’s 11 o’clock! That morning I had a phone call off my bored friend who suggested we go on a random drive. He ended up randomly driving us 25 miles out of where I live into a City called Litchfield. As we where driving through the city I was on my phone and my friend said “wow look at that mad church” I just looked up and immediately smiled in disbelief because my life had brought me to that moment after showing it to me. It was Litchfield Cathedral which it turns out is pretty famous for its design. He ended up suggesting we check it out which we did. I’ll let you guess what time it was when the bells rand while we where in there. Life is strange.
    I like to see it as me being in sync with my life path and destiny. As long as stuff like this keeps happening to me I feel like I’m where I’m supposed to be at that exact moment in my life. It puts my mind at ease and allows me to just go with the flow. Nothing happens by coincidence.

    My most recent experience was probably the most powerful one. I was watching the movie Adaptation for the first time and multiple MULTIPLE times throughout the film (probably 30-40 times), a line of dialogue would perfectly mirror something I had said in the recent past, or a piece of imagery would evoke a strong feeling of deja vu. I was recalling events and conversations from all the way back to 2011. After about the 10th incident of this, I started to pay closer attention (and started to freak out a little bit!), and soon everything started to connect in my head!! Every occasion that I was reminded of had some manner of divine intervention, even if I didn't recognize it at the time; for example multiple near-death experiences where I seemed to survive only through sheer coincidence, as well as people I have met who turned me on to new ideas that have grown me into the person I am today.
    But the most profound moment brought me back to a few short months ago.
    Sunday, late afternoon. My house was quiet, empty. A couple of windows cracked as the temperature is fairly warm. I sat down in the center of the couch in my living room, closed my eyes and started to meditate. As I observed the many sounds of the environment, I started hearing the breath of another human. The sound was coming from the front porch window, which was directly in front of me about 7 meters away. I kept thinking to myself "I hear you breathing, bro" (a line from the movie). I would also hear the occasional very quiet audio clip start and stop like they were flipping through social media. Now my house is way in the outland surrounded by trees, so this was not a typical occurrence, let me tell you. For the next couple minutes I sat there with my eyes shut thinking about what I could possibly be hearing. Also I have a great sense of when someone is staring at me, and that alarm in my head was going crazy even before I noticed the breathing! I glanced at the window and around the room as to not seem suspicious, but didn't see anything. The next thing I did was lay down on the floor in a position where the line of sight to my body was blocked by a wide chair. Not even a minute later I hear a slight scuffle followed by a loud creak from the window. The dude had CLIMBED ON A CHAR on my porch to try to get a better view of me. I quickly sat up and caught a glimpse of this stranger, who darted off to the side behind the wall, not wanting to be seen. After this I looked outside through every window and eventually spotted them once more, crouched behind the chicken coop up against the tree line (about 20 meters from the house). This time we made eye contact. It was fairly shadowy back there but It looked like they were holding a device up to their mouth, like a phone or audio recorder or something. Dazed and confused, I held up a two-finger peace sign, and they returned the favor.
    Now, if you've seen the film you can see the correlations here. What I first thought was a home intruder now seems like a stealthy screenwriter? I have no idea. Never saw nor heard from this person again.
    Anyway, I've been neglecting speaking to one of my good friends because of some silly drama, who, oddly enough is the friend that recommended this film to me. Time for a change. I feel I have been shown beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Creator has a hand in this world, and that he is in control.
    God is real, and he is a fan of Nicolas Cage.

    My synchronicity is my birthday July 14 and the number 47. as I type this comment there are 714 comments infront of mine, the view count is 47,492 and there is the descriptions "carl Jung mention #1147." pretty overwhelming too is that this is all on a video about synchronicity

    You have some really cool synchronicity (s) Max. I've experienced this phenomenon, but not to that degree. The story of The LightHouse and the Jungian thing freaked me out. I had recently been watching an Episode of X-Files that dealt with the same exact subject, then watched the LightHouse, then saw your video as I had recently subscribed to you. At the time I thought it was meant to be. Thanks for the awesome content man. I love the way you think.

    After looking at this awesome mind blowing video. I doubted that I would have had a moment of synchronicity. But after much thought I have at least 2 I know of. One is... political... I’m not going to say much about it. But for the other one: When I was in high school I wanted to write a multi-series fictional story. So I drew some characters out of thin air to get my mind flowing. The next year around that same time. I unknowingly befriended some people that resemble some of the characters I drew. It wasn’t until a few weeks in when I realized some of the new friends I made resembled some of the characters I drew a year. I faded away from some of those friends weeks later cause hehehe drama. But It was such a weird time.

    I was dating this girl and we broke up mostly because she has a ton of mental issues. Projected those issues onto me and created a whole lot of, problems in our relationship.
    I told myself “Next girl I find will be emotionally sound, mature and healthy.” The NEXT day I swipe right on someone on Tinder and behold. The kindest, mature and empathetic girl I’ve ever come across slid in my DM’s after matching me.
    But one thing I always said is that “I always attract broken people or those that are going through a lot.” This beautiful woman recently lost her mom due to suicide. So...I managed to find her right in this pocket of her life where she’s at her lowest because I love helping people. I am going to help her, but the odds I meet someone like her is just astronomically low. I feel like the chaos of the universe is trying to tell me something.

    • @williamwebb580
      @williamwebb580 4 года назад +2

      FearLessLion Z I used to similarly attract broken people through seemingly astronomical circumstances. I used to fantasize about picking people up out of their lowest moments and fixing them. But when the times came to help them, my actions either led to rebound relationships that were detrimental to both of us or them developing an unhealthy dependence on me that I was unprepared for and unequipped to deal with properly.
      It was like the universe was asking me if I really thought I was cut out for this life, or if my desire to help people was in reality just a way for me to feel better about myself rather than a characteristic spawned purely from altruism.

    Loved your Jeopardy example. My family plays a game where we randomly guess the answer to final jeopardy based solely on the category, and all of us have gotten it right a few times. Couple times a week, something we were talking about earlier that day comes up in a question. Things like that happen a lot in a show that covers such a diverse range of topics.

    Its just coincidence, that’s what I believe. Many things happen all the time and we are just really good at noticing patterns. Synchronicity happens, sure, but I don’t believe there really is something special about it. It can still be cool though!
    I have a very scientific/ “materialistic” world view but I still think it all is pretty cool for what it is. ^^
    Oh and, It’s really exiting to see you playing bloodborne. Gaaah, I loove that game too much. Like, it’s almost painful.

      But sometimes the coincidence is astronomically ridiculous, I have watched hundreds of movies in my life, there exists thousands of movies out there, why is it that when I thought about a movie I watched a long time ago and then opened the TV I found it playing .. what are the chances of me thinking about the movie (for a completely arbitrary reason) and then opening the TV at the same exact moment to find it on.

      zezuntxiduntxi I have taken psychedelics a few times. Those experiences have been very important to me and I feel like they have shown me deep “mysteries” about the world, but I still have this scientific view on the world. I do find our existence and the world we live in as something quite amazing tho. I just don’t find a reason to fill it with “meaning” or spiritualism. I have never found something that I can truly believe in... Like, I find the science amazing!

      You can still count on it happening. How often do you think about this movie? How often do you open the tv? How often is this shown on the tv? It will surely happen in someone’s lifetime, right? Why the need to add this mystical meaning to it?

    I was spending the night at a friends house to complete a school project. We were chatting and I ended up talking about weird shit online. One of the things I wanted to show him was the youtuber Poppy. So I pulled up one of her videos randomly, one I'd never seen before. It happened to be one called "Do you ever think about God?" In the video she says the title of the video and goes silent. So I started explaining more about Poppy and what she was and to punctuate my explanation I said "It's really weird". Not one second later she broke the silence and said the exact same words. To say the least I kinda freaked out. This is the one moment of synchronicity I can think of. I have never been religious but I wonder if this is some sort of sign lol.

    When I was in the military, we were cleaning the barracks on a Friday. If the Staff Sargeant was happy with our work upon inspection, we'd be granted weekend liberty. He'd inspected the barracks 2 or 3 times already that day, and was not impressed, citing increasingly minor infractions. So, we were standing in formation on the parade deck, waiting to SSgt to finish his inspection. I muttered under my breath to my squad leader that he'd fail us again, and that we wouldnt get liberty until after he inspects us again tomorrow because he'd found ghost turds on top of the air ducts. This was said in jest, and only a couple people immediately left and right of me could have heard it. Ssgt comes out of the barracks, and says. verbatim what I just said just a moment before. Totally freaked out my squad leader at the time.

    My synchronicity story: I was selling some old crap I had on Ebay, to make room in a cupboard. In one of those auctions, I accidentally clicked on "free shipping" and it got sold to a bitchy lady in the US. I explained to her that it was an accident and it was not worth for me to pay for the shipping for something that was sold for 10$ and we should cancel the auction and get her refunded, but she insisted I should send it to her or she would report me to ebay. Long story short, I didn't gave a damn if she reported me, so I didn't send it to her, but she didn't report me and she kept sending me messages for a month that I should send her the crap she won in the auction.
    One day I realised that nobody wants the crap and I'ld better send it to her to make room, even if I loose money on it. So, one rainy day I went to the post office and mailed it. I went on foot and on my way back I was calculating how I much I bought the collectible toy crap, how much I sold it to the bitchy lady and how much I paid for shipping and came to the conclusion that I lost 2 euros.
    And guess what... The exact moment I finished calculating, I looked down on the ground and there was a 2 euro coin lying in a pool of rainwater. I haven't found on the street more money than a few cents for ages, but it happened on that day and it was the exact sum I lost, the exact moment I was thinking about it.
