Just Coincidence?.....You Decide

This little book is perfect for anyone suffering from a bout of fortunate coincidences or a spell of those eerie occurrences that send shivers up and down your spine. Synchronicity is defined as meaningful coincidences and the idea was brought to the forefront by famed psychologist Carl Jung. In this book Deike Begg discusses further meaning to the word and the actions which commonly occur. Begg discovered her own series of coincidences during her research on the Holy Grail; she often ended up right where she needed to be despite the remoteness of her searching. This led her to believe she was being shown the way toward answers she was seeking and she found that if she kept her logic out of the picture and followed the lead of this phenomenon she was always placed in a position of learning. She found that human beings experience this concept at a higher rate when taken out of their normal settings and behaviors. Begg suggests that loved ones we are connected to often find connection through synchronistic events. This fact can be traced to a series of connected events that often occurs after a loved one is lost for example through death. Many times nature comes into play with birds or some other natural being hovering around as if to say goodbye. Cases of such events have been described throughout history from various sources and despite being disregarded by logic and science the events continue to crop up yet remain unexplained. I read this book in one afternoon after receiving a few too many "signs" that something was in the air. While at times Begg may come across as a little new-agy for logical minds you have to allow your mind to expand upon the ideas she presents in order to grasp the concept. Do angels or divine interventions really exist? Begg offers the idea that angels aren't necessarily found in full heavenly gear, in fact at times they may arrive as a passing stranger who happens to offer a few words of advice. It may sound strange but getting lost isn't always a bad event according to Begg who appears to be notoriously taking the "wrong" path only to find another direction that ends up being right. And of course animals offer human beings yet another avenue to explore. How many times do "lost" animals suddenly appear on a doorstep only to deepen life through some unexplained act? If you possess an unalterable scientific or factual mind Begg's book probably won't appeal to you but it may have been synchronicity that brought you to this point, don't pass up the opportunity to learn something new and possibly find an alternative direction.

A remarkable book

This book is a remarkable testimony to the reality of synchronicity and contains some wonderful examples of it in action. As one who has had many such events in my life, I can attest to the eerie way synchronicity works. In fact, simply through reading Deike's book, it has unleashed a chain of events in my life that is changing it forever.I also have had an astrological reading carried out by Deike and she has given me some truly uncannily accurate insights into my life.I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about this fascinating subject. Deike is a very talented lady and I wish her every success.

Synchronicity

Prior to reading this book, I knew Deike Begg as a highly skilled, intuitive professional astrologer. In Synchronicity she has chosen to share words of wisdom gleaned from many years' firsthand experiences with strange "coincidences" and synchronistic events - all revealing the truth that we inhabit a conscious universe; we can learn to interpret these events as signposts to greater growth. If you've "forgotten" that things don't just happen at random, then this lovely labor of love will serve as your reminder or, perhaps, a synchronistic wake-up call to action for a more fulfilled existence. Enjoy!
