Negative Synchronicities

[rachelar]

I recently read one of Steve's posts about how he considers himself a good temporary guardian of objects, passing them on when they don't fit his life and taking good care of them when they are under his care, and this idea interested me.

I used to lose many things. Usually they would turn up again, but I was forever losing or accidentally throwing away my purse (fortunately there was never much money in it ). I became obsessive then with checking that I still had those things safe. However, I started to relax and not worry so much, just trusting that they were.

After reading it, I made up my mind that I would become a good guardian of things under my care. I started appreciating the things I had and passing on the things that didn't fit my life anymore. But, the usual initial enthusiasm waned and I didn't try so hard anymore.

The last few days, I've been noticing that things are happening to my material objects which seem to synchronise with the fact I'm not taking such good care of them anymore. Take these examples:

1) A CD fell off the seat in my car down the side. I knew it was there, but, since I didn't want to listen to it, I left it there. When I went to retrieve it, it was broken into several pieces and I had to throw it away.

2) I had a fountain pen in the pocket of my dressing gown. Again, I knew it was there every time I put it on, but I didn't take it out and put it away. A few days ago, I dropped my dressing gown and the pen fell out and rolled into a hole in my floor.

My question is, do you think these events are acting as a reminder that I'm not fulfilling or trying hard enough on a commitment I made to myself and the things I own? Do we experience these 'negative' synchronicities in our goals as well as the usual 'positive' ones?

Yup, anything that doesn't align with your intention is showing up big time for you right now.

It's a good thing, it means you have shifted your energy. Your environment is reacting to the change in you! Resolve the feelings you have about the negative synchonisities, what do you need to change to align better with your intention?

I would take it as a sign that you should be getting rid of CDs you don't listen to and pens you don't use (but instead keep in the pocket of your dressing gown).

Maybe that's not what it means in your life. That's how I'd interpret it in mine.

I don't think it does mean this for me. I do use these items, just not everyday. Although maybe it is telling me that I should get around to replacing my car's cd player with an iPod jack, since my car is the only place I still use CDs and can finally get rid of them.

I feel like it's telling me to finally sort my things out and find a place for everything- I'm currently in limbo between two homes. I'm also back to the old habit of not emptying bags immediately after I use them. I used to find dozens of pens and half packs of gum; last week it was a month old tuna sandwich. My commitment needs renewing and careful thinking through, along with a fresh injection of energy. Thanks to the first poster for asking the right question to make me think about that.

Has anyone else had any experiences with these negative synchronicities?

I don't see them as negative.. my teacher says.. the blunt way "get your ♥♥♥♥♥ in order!" (of course he never said that.. I just extrapolated!)


No he says.. that waves of energy are being sent for "the shift" and as such in this wave of energy is clearing out "that which you are not".. simple enough?

So he's suggesting and so's the energy to dump that which is not you.. that which you don't need.. I heard him over say to one of this students/clients who had like 6 storage units.. and why does one need that much stuff??

I have recently condensed my storage unit into much smaller space and thrown away a lot of stuff I was carrying.. some of it possibly worth money!

And slowly find myself clearing away things I don't need to carry/need..

For the record we don't need to receive messages sometimes in physical acts of losing things.. but sometimes were not paying attention and this is supposed to be a attention getter (doesn't always work )

Let's be clear about what your asking here..

Your asking are you punishing yourself??

Why would you do that to yourself makes no sense You don't have to keep one commitment or promise to yourself and up above you.. that other you knows that.. they’re not going to have you manifest negative things to remind you.. it's just silly :P

I mean first off a commitment to cleaning up things.. doesn't have to be a commitment to cleaning up physical objects in your life.. can be a commitment to cleaning up you..

And once again by power of free will and free choice.. we all have the right to change our minds or take our time with it.. no hurry, no rush..

But here's what I think you should change about your thinking on this.. and this is just for your consideration.. (I'm not telling you what to think )

Don't label synchronicity’s as negative or punishment.. If you understand like I do that all creation comes through us and not any other way.. then you realize if your being punished, it's cause you choose to punish yourself..

I offer a idea/belief of empowerment.. the idea that.. "all creations you create always have a positive effect for you"

That means in translations terms That if you are stabbed That if your house is robbed, if you get accused of shop lifting.. (these are things in society we label "negative" yes?) that you will always get a positive effect. (word of warning.. even if you don't see it right away if you believe you will get a positive effect, you will have one )

That stabbing found you a new doctor boyfriend!

That robbing of your house lost crap you hated anyway and you got a nice insurance check!

That shop lifting got you a permanent discount for that miss-understanding at the store you were shopping at!

Do you see?

whatever happens, it's you trying to show yourself something. it's a reminder.

if you sit down and empty your mind, you have a feeling like, you have amnesia, you forgot about something. there's something there. not loud, not visible, but it's there. you can sense a great intelligence, a great sense of knowing, that's you.

when you stop your mind fully, and sense this, a great peace'll arise. 10 out of 10 times. This is the only thing i'm 100% sure of.
