Yeah, I've seen that synchronicity thing many times too, Ebbie. It's fascinating. I've no idea what factors are involved in regards to making it happen, but I think it happens. A deity is not the first thing that comes to my mind when theorizing possible causes for synchronicity. I tend to think more that everything is innately connected to everything else in ways we don't yet understand. That does not necessarily require a deity. It just requires a system similar to a hologram, where every least part somehow contains the imprint of the entirety. In such a system nothing is isolated from the rest of the continuum, everything is connected. A certain type of event (physical, engergetic, mental or even emotional) moves through the whole system like a wave, and that wave is seen to break on many different reefs and beaches, so to speak. Every single apparently isolated event becomes as a stone cast onto a pond, and the ripples from it go out forever.

None of this requires having belief in a deity.
