Intuition and synchronicity are powerful tools we can all benefit from in daily life.

If we call something a coincidence, it somehow seems easier than pretending we have physic abilities or deep awareness. However, if we adjust our thinking slightly and let the word “coincidence” become “unplanned.” I think most of us would accept intuition and synchronicity for the simple reason that any object passing through our stream of consciousness is best to communicate and participate with than see as unknown.

Both are closely linked but slightly different. Intuition is something that is sensed or known and synchronicity relates to life experience that comes to us.

Being very similar does not mean one cannot happen without the other. However, in both cases, you need to be open and realize what is happening, also honor the information received.

We have all picked up the phone to call a friend just in time to receive a call from this very person.

It is common to have intuition lead to synchronicity. An example of this might be sensing a rain shower on a cloudy day, and then noticing animals in nature finding safer ground. It might seem obvious that rain is imminent and so what does this have to do with intuition? It is how the information comes to you.

In another example, you might be somewhere are see a dog and immediately realize you need to pick up food for your dog. These synchronicities are often looked as coincidence, far removed from our spiritual being and admired by the thinking mind as intelligence.

A few months ago at a concert at the National Arts Centre, I was waiting in a concession line when a complete stranger struck up a conversation. I do not remember much of that conversation but that this individual literally “told me” I would really enjoy reading a specific book and provided the title and author. M intuition told me to purchase this book, and from the first page, I quickly realized every word had an important meaning for me at that time.

If we watch closely, we see synchronicities more clearly and notice an increase in their frequency. We may also notice ourselves offering guided support to others, where before we might have held back.

In our silence are the words we were destined to hear. A Parent always knows when their child needs them and this is no coincidence. We can allow our senses to expand, helping to bring a deeper connection to all we are.

We learn to create our reality, to expand what was once unknown into the bright beholding of a new day.
