Synchronicity Journal

[Marc Greve]

We already have a thread for people's current intetions - but how about a results thread?

I'll go first:

The Violinist in Wellington
I'm currently in New Zealand and I just decided to put out the intention "I intend to live in the magic of life," as mentioned in The Secret. Next thing I know I'm walking down from my hostel out on the street with an orange in hand - peeling away. All of a sudden I see this lady sitting on a staircase txting on her phone. I walk past her. Then I realize she must have had a violin next to her. Something just tells me this.
So I walk up to her, ask "That's a violin, right?" and point to the case lying on the ground. She smiles, "Yes."
"Play me a tune and you can have my orange - I'll even peel it and everything."
She laughs and unpacks the elegant instrument. She starts playing, I start weeping (I love violins... I have no words to describe that sound), and before I know it she's giving me lessons (I don't play myself, but I'm correcting that now) right there on the street. We end up talking alot about my ideas of improving sheet music notation and she mentions her idea of translating art forms (playing the violin for sculptures impromptu to capture the mood they convey).

Food at the Festival
I'm at the Roskilde Music Festival with a bunch of friends. The Festival grounds aren't opened yet. They open the next day. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, my hand reaches for the Festival Programme (which has a map of the entire festival grounds), flip to the map page, and close my eyes. "Spin the map around," I tell a friend nearby. She does. I grab a pen, still with closed eyes, and put an X on the map and say "Right... HERE someone dropped their food, the plate will be about half full."
Now this came out of me, I didn't say it. I'd imagine that's how channeling must feel, though I have no previous experience of that.
The next day we all rush in to the Festival Grounds the second they open and find the spot. As the crowds part, there, on the ground is a small white plate of half-eaten pasta EXACTLY where I put the cross. I even have a picture of it at home on my visionboard to remind me.
I love that feeling you get the second you realize you just experience a synchronicity. Everything slows down and the Universe smiles at you, as if to give you a moment to realize what just happened and appreciate it.

Watching the Secret for the first time
After reading the review of The Secret on Steve's blog I figured that sounded like an interesting movie. I want to watch that.
The day after I thought that, I was browsing random videos with stumbleupon (a great firefox extension). It's just a toolbar you click and it displays a random video corresponding to the tag words you registered with you account.
Google Video pops-up - "Conscious Co-Creation" is the name of the video. Sounds interesting I think. Before I know it I'm watching the ENTIRE Movie on Google Video, spell-bound. I instantly download it (another firefox extension) and put out some smaller intentions.
The next day, when I want to show it to a friend I send her the link and lo and behold! It's been taken down due to copyright.
