Speaking of Jung, my and my co-editors co-creation, ChannSpirations and Coincidences, celebrates synchronicities and is based on Jungian concepts thereof. As stated in my story describing our pub, "The concept of synchronicities being meaningful coincidences was championed by the noted Psychoanalyst Carl Jung. Jung realized that our souls and the universe communicate with us through the symbols of our dreams. Similarly, the universe signals us through symbolism in the 3D world, and our psychic energy can manifest a symbol, often a mirror coincidence, but sometimes a directional coincidence as well.

Craig S. Bell’s fabulous book, Comprehending Coincidence, Synchronicity and Personal Transformation, discusses Jung’s work in great detail, provides myriad examples of real coincidences culled from his research, and sufficiently for our purposes sums up the latter type of coincidence thusly:

Directional coincidence[s are] also generally related to one’s state of mind. However directional coincidences are associated more with an open receptivity to guidance and are the product of an intelligence that is far superior than our own: an all-knowing supraconsiousness, rather than our own limited awareness. Directional coincidences occur to provide each of us with particular guidance for contentment and fulfillment appropriate to our own journey through life." https://medium.com/illumination/what-is-channspirations-97516b44185a
