| + | '''Synchronicity''' is the [[experience]] of two or more [[Event (philosophy)|events]] which occur in a [[Meaning (non-linguistic)|meaningful]] manner, but which are [[Causality|causally un-related]]. In order to be synchronous, the events must be related to one another conceptually, and the [[Probability|chance]] that they would occur together by [[random]] chance must be very small. The idea of synchronicity is that the conceptual relationship of minds, defined by the [[Relation (mathematics)|relationship]] between ideas, is intricately structured in its own [[logic]]al way and gives rise to relationships which have nothing to do with causal relationships in which a cause precedes an effect. Instead, causal relationships are understood as simultaneous — that is, the cause and effect occur at the same time. |

| Synchronous events reveal an underlying pattern, a conceptual framework which encompasses, but is larger than, any of the systems which display the synchronicity. The suggestion of a larger framework is essential in order to satisfy the definition of synchronicity as originally developed by [[Switzerland|Swiss]] [[psychologist]] [[Carl Jung|Carl Gustav Jung]]. | | Synchronous events reveal an underlying pattern, a conceptual framework which encompasses, but is larger than, any of the systems which display the synchronicity.
