5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating Book!, July 17, 2002

This review is from: Synchronicity, Signs & Symbols (Paperback)

In reading the book Synchronicity by Pat Upzack, I perceived many answers to some deep metaphysical questions about "timing' and destiny.It is quite a fascinating book!
It is filled with real life stories that keep the reader's attention . I read the book in 24 hours because I simply could not put it down. It is written in a style that nearly everyone can understand but it is the type of book you need to read over and over because you feel you might have missed something.
It has many layers and layers and it touches some key metaphysical principles of synchronicity. It has a glossary of symbols and terms which explain how by " being awake and aware" you can get the most meaning out of life. It really made me notice! It gave meaning to what I used to think were some of most common occurrences.We are destined to live certain experiences to learn.
Some of my favorite passages were about those who met their soul mates under the strangest of circumstances. There was a case of clairvoyant dreaming. The book talks about the importance of numbers and symbols, principles which the Ancients considered a normal part of everyday life but Western civilizations consider bizarre.
This book is great and a "Must read"!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Synchronicity Signs and Symbols, October 24, 2001

By 

Jacqueline Olmsted (Boulder, CO USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Synchronicity, Signs & Symbols (Paperback)

This book is a wonderful tool to help the reader understand and be open to the meaningful coincidences that have occurred and will occur in our lives. The chapters pass by quickly as one is face to face with the stories of many people from all walks of life who shared with the author.
Also included is an accessible reference list with over 300 entries to assist the reader with interpretation of their own experiences.
Throughout the book many experts defined synchronicity. My favorite is by Dr. Frank Joseph: "Synchronicities are little miracles, through which an otherwise Unseen Consciousness communicates with us. We may speak to the gods in prayer, but significant coincidence is the medium whereby they speak to us."

This review is from: Synchronicity, Signs & Symbols (Paperback)

I was thrilled to read this book and discover that so many things that have happened in my life have such a greater meaning. Seeing the bigger picture can be a catch phrase but so much of the time you get stuck in your mess - you don't see what is going on around you! Thank you Ms. Upczak for your beautifully written book that illustrates so wonderfully the need for taking a breath of fresh air and not missing the help that surely must come from above. There truly are no accidents in life!
