Synchronicity

What is the difference between synchronicity and coincidence? Simply put, the former is a conscious recognition of the coming together of events that allow us to become aware of our life path and journey, while the latter is an absence of that same conscious recognition. Through the conscious recognition of synchronicity, we can reflect and recognize the natural lessons that life gives us, that which we miss out of if and when we choose to simply categorize such occurrences as coincidence. In this regard, synchronicities are empowering, while coincidences are disempowering. That is not to say that the former is good or right while the latter is bad or wrong (or vise versa), for there is no judgement in the process, it simply is what we make it to be.

I have arrived in Cumbaya, Ecuador, where I will be staying for the next two months. I live in a house that has an incredible loving energy, with a family who has manifested that energy. I just had a discussion with the mother who has been drawn to natural medicines, ancient cultures and the knowledge that they hold, who recognizes the interconnection of all things and who acknowledges that in order to thrive, balance is fundamental. We have been attracted to each other, not just her and I, but the family and all those who stay at their house. The law of attraction is the MO of synchronicities, it is a conscious path. This is no coincidence in my mind.

There is a reason that 3 is a divine number. For, it is the first geometric shape that strikes a balance between two polar opposites. If you consider the two extremes of infinity - the middle point - the third point, is always where the balance is held. Our body can thus be seen as a physical manifestation of the balance we create between those two polar infinities, the infinitely big and the infinitely small. The former of which is that which expands outside of our bodies, while the later of which is that which contracts within our bodies. It is this interplay between the two polar infinities that creates all of life as we know it. This is what the ancient symbol of the tetrahedron (in its 2D simplistic form) represents, this is why it is one of the most important symbols for cultures all over this Earth, this is why it has been perpetuated throughout time and continues to be so. Simply put, it is the structure upon which all life as we know it is built or manifested.

It is only more sychronistic that the word synchronicity not only refers to the occurrences mentioned above, but also to harmonic sound, or that which is in sync. It is when our life is in sync, in harmony, in balance, that we are at our happiest, healthiest and most euphoric state of being.

Our vibration matters. There are instruments that have documented the vibration that is created by someone who lives is a stressed, fear state as opposed to someone who lives in a peaceful, love state. Those instruments have shown that the vibration, or rather wavelength, of fear is long, while on the other hand the wavelength of love is short. Therefore, if we consider that the fear vibration that moves through our bodies and literally hits points on our DNA, it would in effect unlock significantly less codons than would a love vibration which would, in turn, hit more points on our DNA and thus unlock significantly more codons. I wonder what sort of human would thus be created if one were to vibrate at such a high love vibration, that of unconditional love, and unlock all 64 codons of our DNA? Why not find out? We know simply from feeling in love how empowered it makes us, while on the contrary, when we feel fearful how disempowered it makes us. Consider then the amount of power we have within us, and what we are choosing to do with it. Who are we choosing to give it to? Somewhat ironically, by not recognizing it is a choice, we are giving away even more of our power.

What do you think nature will choose? If nature is an evolving entity, do you think she can evolve if she is not in balance? We can simply look at the ecology of life to answer this question. When looked at in this life, it is clear that even as things "die" they give new life, they maintain balance, homeostasis, and allow for nature to continue to thrive. In this respect, even competition is seen as cooperation - an overarching agreement to maintain balance. Therefore, life is filled with sacrifice, but not in the morbid sense; rather in a way that acknowledges that death as we know it is only a perception. It is we humans who decide to give it dichotomous values - good/bad, right/wrong, positive/negative.

WE are conscious beings, at some point we must acknowledge that as life continues to perpetuate itself through the process we call evolution, our consciousness must also evolve. Human consciousness involves choice, being aware of choice, conscious choice. Therefore, we must consciously choose to evolve. In order to do that, we must reclaim, or rather, re-acknowledge our power. This means recognizing the connections, the synchronicities. This means acknowledging the simplicity of life as well as its complexities, and drawing a balance between them as manifested through our physical beings.

Emotions are literally bio-electro-chemical and thus physical interactions that take place within our bodies but are intrinsically connected that that which is happening outside of our physical bodies. Through our preceptors, we choose how to perceive our environment, this stimulates a process that releases chemicals into our bodies that literally determine how we feel. If we believe that we have no control over our perception of the environment, we are giving our power away. After all, it is we who perceive, others do not perceive for us, it is our bodies that have sensors that perceive our environment. So, in order to consciously evolve, we must choose to perceive in a way that releases chemicals in our bodies (endorphins) that make us feel good, in love, at our full potential, empowered. Thus vibrating at a higher, more harmonic frequency and co-creating the heaven in which we all wish to live. In other words, in order to live in sync, in harmony, in love with each other, we need to go through the same evolution that our very own cells have gone through in order to come together and cooperate to create multi-celled organisms that function as one, but at the level of human consciousness - as human beings in a body, a multi-celled organism, called humanity.
