The kinds of synchronicities I am talking about all happen in the context of a seemingly unsolvable problem. At this stuck point there is often the feeling of dread, despair, giving up, all is lost, quintessential stuckness. If the person elects to keep struggling with struggle this attitude fires up ones creative process. This struggle now taken up by the creative process takes the form of initiating a psychological scavenger hunt which searches for 'clues' to solve the seemingly unsolvable problem. The clues are like pieces of a complicated 17 dimension jig saw puzzle. When enough clues have been amassed fitted together in recognizeable patterns eventually an adequate solution will emerge. At this point a synchronicity? occurs? marking the presence of the?unique solution. But the solution is 'coded' as it first makes? itself present in the preconscious (midway between the unconscious and consciousness.) Thus to get the full meaning of a given synchronicity it first has to be interpreted like a waking dream.
If you want a fuller explanation you might wish to read my book... (which I was just told by my publisher went into production today and should be out in late December. You might also want to read my lengthy article on the psychodynamics of meaningful coincidences on my web site gibbsonline.com.... Press the theories tab.. and hunt for the synchronicity article. -----Original Message----- From: Matthijs <[email protected]> To: "Minds Eye" <[email protected]> Sent: Tue, Sep 29, 2009 6:30 am Subject: [Mind's Eye] Re: coincidence Well, 40 years of investigating that means you know a lot about it. What you got up to now? Enlighten me, you made me curious about your book. I understand you can't tell everything, just give it a shot.
