There the author goes on to say that so much energy is involved with the process of dying that synchronistic events at that time cannot be explained merely through psychology alone. My reprieve, however, came in the book's closing chapters. I was almost disappointed in the intellectualization of this description even though the author's in-depth discussion about this topic fascinated me. How we react to them is based on how we subjectively interpret them. He explains that the basis of sychronicity is the fact that two related experiences, one internal and one external, are not caused by each other but are related in a meaningful manner. I’m not sure I understood everything I read, but I thoroughly enjoyed the descriptions of sychronistic events related to the author by others and which he describes at length throughout the book. What I got, though, was a thorough explanation of the psychological aspects of synchronicity explained through the ideology of Carl Jung. I expected some paranormal or New Age type of reasoning.
Before reading it, I thought it would be the explanation of why synchronistic experiences happen. I had expected something completely different from this book, though. Knowing ahead of time that this book was about synchronicity, I was happy to have “accidentally” found it on the sale shelf of my public library and finally remove it from my wishlist.
