Many times almost always during times of deep meditation when thoughts arise as possible answers to troubling problems little affirmations manifest. For instance a wall will pop or a noise on one's computer happens precisely when the thoughts occur.
Has anyone experienced these kind of synchronicities? Could they be coincidences? When one studies quantum theories the concept of coincidence diminishes. "In small things considered is the world revealed."
If these are true affirmations what causes them? Guardian spirits? Or perhaps our own energy emoted and reflected somehow?
These synchronicities can also be connected to Karma if you expand on the concept. Everything is a cause and effect deal.

Interesting topic G. One of the books I'm reading right now is, "The Vodou Quantum Leap - Alternate Realities, Power and Mysticism" by Reginald Crosley, M.D. It's a hard read at times...very in depth and I find myself having to re-read many sections to really get the gist. Here's an excerp from this book concerning this very topic: John G. Cramer's transactional interpretation of quantum events can be applied to more mundane or familiar occurrences of everyday life such as the premonitory kick. That quantum event is very prevalent in the Haitian mental construct. It also exists in other cultures in Europe and America with some variants. It is supposed to be a warning system. When I inadvertently kicked my right foot against something, I received a notice of bad omen. Something disagreeable is going to happen. When I kicked my left foot against something, it is a notice of good omen. For most people in my country, it is the other way around. It is that way with me because I am left handed. I have been experiencing it from my childhood on into adulthood. Like everything in "quiff" land, to use the word of Fred Anan Wolf, it is affected by indeterminacy. It is very capricious. We can go months or weeks without experiencing it, and one day suddenly it is back into your life. So, many of us have learned to ignore it.
In my premonitory kick an offer wave moves from the present to the future. The warning received is the echo wave that moves from the future to the present. Someone may think that the premonitory kick is just a coincidence exacerbated by superstition. This is possible. However, the quantum dimension has room for both. The superstition is a belief that modulates the reality around the believer. It gives currency to the reality of the superstition. Thus in Afro-Haitian culture, the premonitory kick is a fact of life. Furthermore as coincidence, the kick falls into the realm of Carl Jung's synchronicity, eerie mensional extrasensory perception (Jung, Memories pg 138).
Now, if we could travel at the speed of light, two points separated on the continuum of space and time would appear to be the same point in the "now". Altogether we could get rid of the prison of time and space. Our body or our consciousness could "drop in" anytime in the past, the present or the future, or any place instantaneously. This property of quantum reality allows us to identify with the wholeness of the universe, in such a manner that the "observer" becomes the "observed". I am what I see.It goes on into some crazy detail about quantum physics etc... I guess in my own experience I would say that we can often tap into that realm where everything is existing at once (the spiritual realm, if you will) and when we do this...when we connect with this part of our selves, our higher selves, we notice things that bring relevancy to what "will be" or "should be" ... or act as a signpost perhaps...the thing that says to us "take notice now of what is around you - of what you are thinking" for it is important somehow to your personal journey here. Being of the belief that we predetermined our journeys in this life, I believe that perhaps certain "times" are important for us to recognize...that there is something happening at a specific time that is encoded in our soul memory...and when such "coincidences" occur they are perhaps a nudge from our own souls to take heed... It allows us, if we are open to it, time to stop and look around and take inventory of our paths. Some believe that our souls exist in more than one place at one time...this touches on the quantum side of things. If this is so, perhaps we are responsible for giving our own selves a nudge now and again... Maybe we "two-leggeds" over-think such things? The animals just seem to feel it and go with it. Maybe that's why we miss things at times - by overcomplicating it? Sometimes the answer(s) are right there in front of us...but we can over-analyse them so that they lose their meaning? Me thinks it's time for a walk down by the River with my dog...that is good medicine to be sure.

Sounds like my kind of book...fascinating and synchronous.
I wonder if anyone else here experienced these kind of things or wondered about this.
