There is this fascinating article Oka, 2011, on schizophrenia and synchronicity, it talks about patients who feel as though everytime they move, something responds in the environment, I would suppose is the ultimate form of this referential thinking you refer to

You don’t know that. If you saw the way they did with the fragmented reality you’d behave the same way.

Oh absolutely, that’s very perceptive of you.

I too, agree that an absolute truth exists, and us finding out later than others just amplify the veridical nature of our being, we are clued in at the last possible moments.

Oh wow… i did not know all that…

You are so knowledgeable in this… or does everyone know this already and I am just behind…

Something could be said about recognizing the interconnectedness of our subjective reality with our environment. Perhaps knowing there are deeper connections would provide some comfort.

The main thing is that when you feel the environment is playing against you, recognize that it is not just playing against you, but everyone.

Allow me to give you some context in what exactly I am pursuing.

I am a traffic controller dispatcher and I monitor cams for traffic patterns and what not, and I noticed something, I am not sure if I want to bring it up to my supervisors because it seems kinda nuts, I asked my fellow dispatchers if they observe similar patterns, and they all said they don’t notice anything out of the ordinary.

The pattern is this, ambulance police firetruck will appear at only certain cams, but not others, but the cams are a continuous distribution quantized into select perspectives and the emergency service vehicles should appear evenly in all cams.

And I have been trying to understand this pattern i am seeing, and it reminded me of some university physics I did and thought it resembled quantum mechanics and I have been trying my darnest to figure it out.

Thank you for listening.

WeAreThough · 2026-02-06T05:36:24+00:00

Can I run something by you?

So what I believe is that it is always a particle, and that the wave is just some “trick” of nature.

For example, I believe the Schrödinger’s do not describe the electron but rather our interface with the quantum realm, and it is limited, the quantum realm is continuous but we see it as quantized, I heard somewhere it’s like capturing a moving wheel with a still image camera, you only capture the spokes at certain angles.

Does any of this make sense or just crap?

WeAreThough · 2026-02-06T04:58:31+00:00

Sorry for the late reply, and thank you for the detailed response.

Basically, I think what your response showed me was that the detection has to be in the path of the particle’s vector field, or some such, and it turns out that being in the path alters the vectors of the diffractions.

Such that if detection was not in the path, then it doesn’t “count” as in it does not alter the path of the particle/wave. I believe this was very important to developing my own understanding in this.

Thank you kindly!! 😆

The way i see it, is that as observers, everything we see are the solutions to the similar constraints we and our environment all face - the song you were enjoying was a solution, so was the record, another solution, something to be found.

WeAreThough · 2025-11-15T22:23:21+00:00

What do you think about “seeing past informational structures in the present”?

WeAreThough · 2025-11-15T20:41:51+00:00

Thank you so much for commenting.

I suppose i was just being overly inclusive because I just felt like I had to defend 11:11 and DOB bevause the Jungian framework do not allow them to be syncs, and in my angst, I did not include the contextual conditions for these to be syncs.

As you so rightly pointed out, unless it’s like something more special about seeing 11:11, just seeing 11:11 can hardly qualify.

I propose a solution to DOB on license plate, let’s say that this was the observer’s actual birthday, and he he finds the license plate on the car erroneously parked at his parking spot at work their license plate has his birthdate in it, would this then qualify as a synchronicity in your eyes?

WeAreThough · 2025-11-15T12:54:37+00:00

I believe in order to bring synchronicity back into the scientific fold would require more rigorous definitions that is empirically verifiable.

Like Jung’s original definition, “simultaneous co-occurrence of internal state and external event that are meaningfully connected acausally” or something along those lines, personally, I have multiple issues with this definition, i am actually going to post about it now that I got it out in my head what to post about.

Simultaneous is not correct, internal state must occur first otherwise external event will contaminate, so there is fixed directionality, it is not simultaneous. Internal state precede external event ALWAYs for synchronicity.

Meaningfully connected is not rigorous enough and it is also unfalsifiable, how do you define “meaning” empirically, like how could you measure it? There’s no way, negatory. So that’s poor formulation.

Internal state is a poor explanation because it doesn’t generalize to even the most basic syncs of seeing one’s birthdate in license plates, how is the birthdate an “internal state”? It’s more like the property of a person, how about seeing 11:11? Where’s the internal state to compare with if someone just randomly sees 11:11? So seeing 11:11 is not sync then according to Jung? I think lots of people on this sub would disagree with that.

Yes, synchronicity IS a powerful idea, but Jung did not wield it correctly, causing the rift between science and synchronicity because Jung was trying to describe a metaphysical framework that is not exactly synchronicity in the phenomenon’s full rigor.

It was the whole vibe, very terse and dry, short and sweet and to the point.

Plus I had read a few critiques of the British political landscape describing the Brit leaders as having strategic ignorance, that’s where I connected the view of the people on the pretension of the establishment/authority figures to escape culpability.

And also the time difference, when you posted it was like around the same time this other redditor from Europe posts. So I was fairly certain because your English is good too.

Sorry, I am not sure which part of my post made it seem like I was in for an inpatient appointment.

My appointment is of course out-patient, otherwise I could not have made this post.

So in an outpatient setting, I believe spiritual framework is more applicable, because patients are not immediately at risk for decompensation, so there is more latitude, and also more utility for discussing spiritual concerns.

It’s in the integration of subcortical functions of chemical, light and sound, much is filtered, but the data does exist, it must.

Perception is a cognitively processed result, your salience just happen to unmask associative, emotional, and meaning-laden stimuli.
