The 7 Secrets of Synchronicity: Your Guide to Finding Meaning in Signs Big and Small Kindle Edition

I was not disappointed with this book. It is well-researched and well-written. Using anecdotal stories, many from bloggers, the book helps you to realize how the world is so much more than we ever believed it to be. That blogging in itself, may be synchronicity at work in a very powerful way.The seven secrets of synchronicity, as explained in this book, breaks down the components of synchronicity. Explaining what it is, how it works, how to recognize it in your own life, and more importantly, how to have more of it! Understanding what it is enables the individual to live on a deeper level, more in tuned to their environment, other people, and other living creatures. This book shows us how to recognize the incredible interconnectedness we all share, and how to respect it.I also enjoyed the "Divining Synchronicity" section of the book. I have always been very curious about I Ching and Tarot cards, but didn't really understand how they work, and how they can be a useful tool in everyday life. Now that I'm past my grandmother's voice telling me all things divining are the devil's work, I can follow my instincts regarding energy, consciousness, and connection. So I have ordered a brand new set of Tarot cards, and included Trish MacGregor's book - Power Tarot.I believe the human being is going through an evolution. I think that these ways of "knowing" will someday be the norm and what we feel to be cutting edge will one day be archaic. But for now, this book will appeal to those who feel as I do - the world is changing and so are we. It's time to embrace the paradigms of the future.

I enjoyed this book immensely. Meaningful coincidences, or synchronicities, can be life-altering. Anyone who has ever experienced one of these amazing, thought-provoking and sometimes numinous events has learned first-hand how much synchronicity can add to our lives. Although synchronicities themselves can be mystifying, the possible physics and theories as to the "how" of synchronicity are clearly explained by Trish and Rob MacGregor, along with the latest in rigorous scientific research supporting them.Another interesting feature of Seven Secrets is how its authors bring other so-called paranormal phenomena such as telepathy, precognition and divination under the synchronicity umbrella, something I had not considered before. But perhaps most importantly, unlike many synchronicity books out there, Seven Secrets presents specific exercises you can do to increase synchronicities in your life.Seven Secrets tells plenty of fascinating true stories featuring different kinds of synchronicities, which makes it eminently readable and hard to put down; but for me, the theoretical explanations for synchronicity and the exercises that can actually increase synchronicities in your own life take this book beyond its collection of admittedly awe-inspiring anecdotes. If you want to bring the power of synchronicity into your own life, do read this book, and as for those synchronicity exercises, "do try this at home!"

This is exactly what I was hoping for to explain what was happening in my life! There are a number of chapters that cover all kinds of topics that make you think and give possible answers to the magic in your life that seems unexplainable. I have ordered a couple of other books on synchronicity and this one is by far the best. The others are almost autobiographies of the author's experiences, which do not hold my interest. If you want a book that gives all kinds of information, this is the one. By reading this one, I was able to sort out many things that I had been wondering about.

Great topic... Great book... I will read again!

I was waiting for a good synchronicity before I wrote a review...This week as I relieved the night nurse who works on my team she said "Hey have you watched the Fourth Kind?" I said..."Do you mean like alien abduction?" She said yes and began to tell me about the movie. I was logging onto my work computer and going to the Synchronicity site, The blog for the day was aliens...it gave me shivers. This book has just opened a sync window for me in my life....wonderful, scary, amazing, and fun.

Lots of interesting concepts in the book. Ponderous concepts.

Trish and Rob MacGregor have delivered a book that takes us deeper into the phenomena of synchronicity. There are many books that give us tales of synchronicity, but the MacGregor's give us insight as well. They show us how to catch synchronicity in action, and how to awaken to the messages in your life everyday. They also take us into the shadow aspects of the phenomena, highlighting the Trickster elements. What I love about this book is how they did their field work. They listened to people's stories, both in life, and on the web their blog "SYNCHRONICITY". I highly recommend this book both for the practical aspects, and the inspiration of knowing the whole world is connected.

I just launched a memoir, GODSIGNS: Health, Hope and Miracles, My Journey to Recovery. I tell the story of the astounding coincidences that kept me going during a medical crisis. I named these events Godsigns and thought I knew a lot about synchronicity. I learned so much more from the MacGregors. In clear language they take sophisticated concepts, make them understandable and provide fascinating examples. They suggest ways of increasing synchronicities in our own lives. Bravo, Trish and Rob. And thank you. Suzy Farbman

Have you ever thought about someone you haven't spoken to for years only to have them phone you a few minutes later? Have you ever decided to read about a subject new to you only to have just the right book practically fall on you in a bookshop? Have you ever read about something on the internet or in a newspaper and at the same time heard the same word spoken on a television which is on in the background? This is synchronicity. The more you become aware of these synchronous happenings the more they seem to present themselves to you. It's like buying a car and seeing lots of the same make of car wherever you go.Maybe you don't notice this sort of thing or maybe you just shrug and think of them as coincidence but the more you think about these strange and apparently random happenings the more remarkable they seem to be. Everything seems to be connected in ways that baffles the human mind to even consider. I first came across the idea many years ago when I was first interested in astrology. The study of such subjects tends to present one with many examples of synchronicity in real life. I remember being particularly intrigued by what Jung had to say about synchronicity and there are many references to Jung's writing on the subject in this fascinating book.I found this book an absorbing read and it provided many more books and web addresses to explore. Here are the famous examples of synchronicity - Jung's fishes and the plum pudding incident which spanned several decades. Scientists are becoming increasingly interested in the way the world and human beings are connected in ways which cannot be explained by our current state of scientific knowledge but which are explained by religion, philosophy and psychology. Rupert Sheldrake, C G Jung, Arthur Koestler and Deepak Chopra have all been fascinated by the subject. The science of noetics - famously explored in fiction by Dan Brown - is looking at similar events and occurrences.If you are interested in religion, science, biology, philosophy or psychology then you will find something of interest in this fascinating book. There are plenty of references to follow up if you want to read more about the subject and plenty of websites to explore and an index to the book itself.

I originally intended to buy a copy of Arthur Koestler's "The Roots of Coincidence" in order to write an article on Synchronicity when I noticed this book by Rob MacGregor and elected to get it instead ... a good decision ... because, although not as technical as some might like, it's very well written. It's also inspirational in that the author and his wife give many examples and practical advice on how to bring the subject matter into everyday life.Recommended.

I don't often take the time to write a review but in this case I'd like to make an exception because this is a well written and interesting book. In fact, I couldn't put it down! 'The 7 Secrets of Synchronicity...' is well researched and packed with information, explanations, practical advice, and fascinating case studies. There are so many books on synchronicity and it can be hard to decide which one to buy. My advice: Go with this one.

Loved this book so much. Lots of interesting info

I found this book is very readable, flows well, and I could read it from start to finish without putting it down. I would recommend it.
