Real synchronicities revealed!

How do we know if something is a real synchronicity? In this video we look at two surprising answers. The first comes from the story of James Lewis and James Springer. The second comes from what’s known as the “rule of three.” #synchronicity # numerology

Jim Lewis and Jim Springer were identical twins who were separated at birth. When they were 4 weeks old, they were each adopted by two different families. Neither of the twins knew about the other. Both of their families named them James, and nicknamed them Jim. They both had adoptive brothers named “Larry.” They both had a dog they named “Toy.” They both married women named “Linda.” But their marriages didn’t last, and they both remarried women named “Betty.” They both worked in law enforcement. They both had sons and named them “James Alan” and “James Allan.” They did all this without realizing it and without ever knowing about the other twin.

Are these just coincidences, or does it point to the possibility of something more?

The answer just might lie in your personality. Professor Bernard Beitman has spent much of his life studying coincidence, and he’s found that certain personalities are much more likely to experience synchronicity. For example, people who describe themselves as spiritual, and people who are good at processing meaning in their lives, are all more prone to seeing synchronicities.

Is there a way to tell if something is a real synchronicity? To answer this, we look at the “rule of three” and how it appears in many different cultures across the world, and its importance in numerology.
