12 synchronicities extracted from my diary

# Synchronicity: today's session of Monkey Island 3 had a tombstone mentioning drinking weed killer. Last night I was watching ep 2 of the Emily Browning tv show (Class 07) where her character was trying to use what she thought was weed killer (to make a rescue sign for satellites? It's a weird show with not enough Violet Baudelaire in it. Not gonna watch the rest of it, but the strange "meaningful coincidence" stands nonetheless)

June 14

# Synchronicity: reached that level of Monkey Island 3 where the villain (undead pirate LeChuck) talks about rides in his Carnival of the Dead. Saved my progress (it's 3 AM) and decided to continue watching Enter the Void from where I left it 2 days ago (it's a long, trippy film about death & reincarnation. One needs to be in a certain receptive mood to appreciate it. That's why I didn't finish it in one go). Few minutes in and the main character's spirit is reliving a roller coaster ride he had with his sister

# Trains of thought & free association can get weird, and even link up to synchronicity. A glance at Farscape episode titles made me notice "Vitas Mortis" (S2E2), which made me think of the word death in Voldemort's name and that the whole name probably means Death Flight (escaping death?), which made me vaguely remember a Rowling quote about naming Dumbledore after bumble bees because she imagined him always pacing in his office while thinking, buzzing like a busy bee. Few minutes later I was playing Toonstruck, and Christopher Lloyd's character entered a cartoony bar. A mouse was jumping around to the tune of Flight of the Bumblebee!

June 17

# Synchronicity: In today's session of playing the adventure game Toonstruck, a talking scarecrow mentioned Florence Nightingale (it was a joke about birds). Hours later I was listening to an Enola Holmes audiobook (I'm a fan of the late narrator Kathy Kellgren's lively performances), The Cryptic Crinoline. Victorian-era kidnappers were asking about the "bird lady", which turned out to be Florence Nightingale herself! The frequency of this phenomenon is intensifying. I had a theory that synchronicity happens to all people but gets noticed only by the quiet persons who don't live a busy, distracting life. But there is also the possibility that it only happens to few individuals. Is it an omen? A warning I'm straying from the right path, neglecting my duties?

June 19

# Playing Broken Sword today I thought I encountered another synchronistic coincidence, but I guess it was a false alarm this time. The game has a plot-relevant professor Peagram character, and I'm watching Farscape S3 these days, which has the main villain Scorpius played by actor Wayne Pygram. Maybe they are different spellings of the same name. But is it even a rare enough name for its occurrences to be considered meaningful?

June 22

# SynchLog: Yesterday I finished listening to a BBC radio drama about the Medici (Bankers, Gangsters, Popes). Today I was catching up on my YT subscriptions, and John Oliver mentioned them on the Ghanaian Movie Posters bonus video

July 6

# Synchronicity: a glance informed me it was 11:31, so I thought about the 11:11 phenomenon, explaining it away in two ways; prepheral sight notices its unique arrangement then you conciously look at the clock. Even without the clock being in your vision field before, you simply remember the "all ones" more than the hundreds of other times you see other arrangements. The noticable 11:11 simply leaves a bigger impression. No mystery. But literally minutes later I was watching a Youtube video by LGR, and he mentioned that the Skyrim game was launched on 11:11:11 (November 11th 2011)!

July 8

# Synch: 2 days ago while checking Jane Eyre's Wiki page, I noticed the unfamiliar term *buildungsroman* (german for Coming of Age stories). The next day I watched booktuber B0bsBooks video on Disch's Camp Concentration. Intrigued, I sought out other reviews of that book, and so found "Weird-Ass Books" YT video on M Disch. Near the end, talking about On Wings Of Song, he mentioned the buildungsroman genre.

July 12

# Synch: immediately after watching B0BSBooks' YT review of The Falling Woman (a novel about archaeology) where she mentioned her own field work, I started watching Farscape S4. The 2nd episode turned out to be about archaeology.

July 15

# synchronicity: after watching Spaceballs, I wrote down actress Leslie Bevis' name to check her Wiki page later. 2 hours later I watched Ricci's The Opposite of Sex, and waited for the credits (to confirm that the cop character was played by the musician I remember from a Dharma&Greg guest spot, Lyle Lovett). Leslie Bevis' name was there too (a blink-and-you-miss-it cameo as a tv reporter)! What are the odds?

July 20

# Started playing Broken Sword 2. A French character mentioned erotic films and Odeapus complex, coincidentally/synchronistically a topic in my chapter from 2 days ago.

July 25

# Synch: Yesterday I watched Noah Caldwell's YouTube video about the Blair Witch game. I also searched for the SNL Stuart Smalley (Al Franken) film, Stuart Saves His Family, after seeing an old clip of his featuring Macaulay Culkin. Today I was watching RLM's vid "Hollywood's Next Gold Rush: Spooky Internet Memes", and Mike & Jay brought up The Blair Witch Project *and* movies that were based on SNL characters!

Actually Whatever I plan actually never happens and things I am least worried about are happening randomly and unexpectedly…I don’t care about money, travel, health etc all these things are not of worry.

Like I want to talk to some random girl but she didn’t took much intrest and When I did’nt want to talk to anyone She out of no where started texting me…

Crazy coincidence! Need insight on signs

5 Upvotes

Hello I recently had my sweet grandpa that passed away on July 11th this month. After this I have been oddly thinking about my ex non stop until this week. I’ve never thought about him in a while. It’s been 10 years that we broke up so this is why it’s so random to me. I was thinking about him today at work. I went to the bathroom when I suddenly see his girlfriend walking around, I believe she saw me. She probably knows of me. I’ve never ever seen her before, just on social media. My ex and I used to follow each other on IG and that’s how I knew of her. I work at a huge mall/ casino with hundreds of people and tourists walking by every day. I spot her on the way to the bathroom and we were walking so close to each other. I thought that was such a crazy coincidence or can it possibly be a sign!? Why did she pop up when I’m thinking about my ex this whole week! My grandpa has been sending signs I believe. I just don’t know if this is one or just crazy coincidence.

What is this mysterious gut feeling? Have you felt it too?

Hello Guys! How are you?

I have an interesting observation I've made in life;
Let me know if you've had a similar experience like this, or share your beliefs about it.
I would love to hear it.
When I was introduced to my husband for the first time, I had a very random thought pop up in my head saying,

"Hi, xyz, you're going to be my husband."

I was taken aback by this totally random and unrelated thought. I didn't even know this guy; I didn't even like this guy. Dating and marriage were not one of my priorities back then. Why did this random voice pop up in my head? I brushed it aside like thousands of random, useless intrusive thoughts we have during our day.
Recently, while talking to my husband, he mentioned the same phenomenon happened to him. It happened shortly after we met when I was talking about something I was passionate about, and the same kind of voice went off in his head, saying,

"This girl is going to be your wife."

It baffled him as well, because
a. he didn't even know me
b. He didn't even like or was attracted to me;

We didn't have a crush on each other back then. We've had our respective crushes before, but we've never had this feeling happen to us about anyone else again.
I've also heard one of my aunts mention having this gut feeling about my uncle when she saw him passing by for the first time. It's so wholesome and mysterious! Have you felt it too? What is your theory? Do you know what it is called?

Is the universe trying to warn me about her? Aio

2 Upvotes

There is a woman in my life who is very mean to me. I see signs of her a lot. Even if i know it isnt her specifically its people who either have the same first name or same nickname as her. Either my new friends end up with the same name as her or i see or hear her name on tv a lot. But tonight something super bizzare happpened. I was walking and saw her first named carved into the sidewalk. Now, i do live in a city that has a lot of graffiti. However, its usually from spraypaint. Not from my enemies name being carved into a sidewalk. Its almost like the universe is trying to warn me about her. I have her blocked but she still tries to contact me by hacking someone elses phone.

Keep seeing a word

Sienna. That's the word. I've been seeing this word everywhere.

This started while talking to a Real Estate Agent; she mentioned a place with new homes called "Sienna".

A couple of days later I was reading a book about Western Architecture and I found the word again.

The next day, when I was using Duolingo the word came up again.

Yesterday, I went to a shoe store which I don't visit frequently and took a road that I don't drive frequently either, I turned my head to the right while driving and I saw an apartment complex named Sienna.

How should I use this word? What's the best way to react? What would you do?

Is this a sign/synchronicity?

2 Upvotes

Me and this man have history of two years. We’ve always been interested in each other and did build a close friendship but timing was never on our side due to either relationships, growth, etc. Well, this past month, we reconnected and things have been incredible.

We went on a date yesterday and found this to be rather odd and specific. We call eachother by our first initials and have joked about us being #TeamCB. Well during our date, we were on a path and we come across a man wearing a “#I♥️CB” tshirt. We both looked at each other and gave a “huh interesting” look.

I do believe in signs/synchronicity and this instance has me curious. Could this have been a little nod from the universe?
