Synchronicity: The Promise of Coincidence

Coincidences are ""signposts that show us which way to go next,"" asserts Deike Begg (Rebirthing) in Synchronicity: The Promise of Coincidence. Psychotherapist, astrologer and newspaper columnist Begg offers her own and others' testimony about accepting and interpreting synchronicity, and models decision making based on the ""uncanny"" and ""meaningful coincidences"" that we encounter. The more you follow ""the right path,"" she promises, ""the luckier you get."" She cross-references other texts and resources the I Ching, for instance, and Jung, who coined the term in 1929. In chapters on soul mates, angels, dreams and astrology, Begg tells us how to usher in the halcyon days we're all waiting for. (Thorsons [HarperCollins, dist.], $14.95 paper (160p) ISBN 0-00-710386-7)
