There are basically two kinds of synchronicity: one not accepted by everybody, the second one seemingly proven in labs. The first, accepted by Jung, links synchronicity to premonition. The second one, apparently observed in laboratories, then physical, may represent manifestation of a quantum leap through distance. Apparently when an animal learns something in one laboratory it may be transmitted to other animals at the other end of the world. How can a tendency jump through space? Where/what is the bridge? Why does ‘simili similibus’ attract? As for karma, also recognized by Jung, like synchronicity it’s carried like leaves floating on a river. If synchronicity refers to the collective, the karma interests mostly individuals. How does this all-encompassing river distinguish our individual karmas? It doesn’t have to; the leaves carried by the river remain individual. What is this river? Maybe in the future we’ll get some glimpse. The current of this river is not of our dimension. It transcends the notion of time. Here, everything happens in our three dimensions; ‘there’ (eternity) everything appears static, no visible current because everything is forever settled, predictable, repetitive. Here, everything is submitted to time, which gives the impression of existing current.
