Self-Awareness and Pattern Recognition Are Key, Bernard Beitman, MD: EP 331

Meaningful coincidences—synchronicity and serendipity—are primarily psychological phenomena. Without you noticing them, they do not exist. What psychological processes are involved with noticing the similarities between a psychological event and an external event and then wondering about their potential meaning? Three of the primary variables include self-observation, pattern recognition, and personality traits.

Synchronicity Answers Questions, Julie Mariel: EP 330

Anthropologist Julie Mariel wanted evidence to support the reality of alien mummies miraculously preserved. Following her inner GPS, she selected a Peruvian hostel where the host introduced her to the French version of Indiana Jones. The mummies were stored in his house! He also was seeking information about the Bosnian pyramids which Julie knew very well. Together they show how, once again, what you are seeking is also seeking you.

Tarot Cards in Action, Judy Suzanne Reis Tsafrir MD: EP 343

Look around you. The events of your mind are being mirrored in the multiple sensations coming into your brain. Synchronicity shows us that our minds are embedded in our environments. We are both separate and part of our worlds. Psychiatrist Judy Tsafrir drew a card from a tarot deck composed of trees that mirrored my intent and helped strengthen it. How does this mirroring work? We make our guesses. More important is that it happens and can be helpful to you. Look for the reflections. They are there! Judy Suzanne Reis Tsafrir, MD, is a holistic healer, activist, artist, and gardener with a private practice of holistic psychiatry and psychoanalysis located in Newton, Massachusetts. She is a board-certified adult and child psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, is on the faculty of Harvard Medical School and the Boston Psychoanalytic Institute.
