Product Description
As defined by Carl Jung, synchronicity is the concept of "meaningful coincidence." In a way that defies cause-and-effect logic, a series of outer events sometimes coincide with each other and with an inner pattern of the soul. This book shows you how to watch for these tiny gifts of "coincidence" -- signs that guide you through the important decisions of your life. Included is a new version of the I Ching, which can be used to "invite" synchronicity.

4.0 out of 5 stars Using Synchronicity to Access Inner Wisdom, July 19, 2002

By	Marylyn Rands (Franklin, MA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Unlike other reviewers of this book, I liked it. Mark Thurston's guidebook teaches how to use synchronicity to access our inner wisdom and answer our questions. I didn't have three weeks to practice the eight-step program, so I tried the method in a shorter period of time. By the time I had finished the book, I had learned about synchronicity, focused on my spiritual goal, formed a question, practiced the exercises and had a meaningful response from the I Ching "with parallel wisdom from the Edgar Cayce readings." If that offends you, don't buy it. If you are open to Cayce, the exercises are powerful. For example, how do you identify your spiritual ideal? Thurston had me recalling peak experiences and remembering feelings from when synchronicity had worked in the past. The energy from this and the other exercises helped me receive and trust my insights from the I Ching/Cayce messages. I will keep this book and refer to it often.

2.0 out of 5 stars More Cayce than Jung, November 13, 2000

By	Alan C Hummel (Levittown, PA United States) - See all my reviews

A light introduction to synchronicity that pays more attention to the prophecies and teachings of Edgar Cayce than the theories of Carl Jung, this book is far from an absolute text on the subject. The author even refers to occurences as being "synchronous", instead of the proper "synchronistic". It also contains a poor translation of the I Ching. I didn't find this one very helpful, and would recommend instead "The Power of Flow", a book that has much more of a grasp on the essence of synchronicity than this one.
