Roderick Main examines meaningful coincidence or what Swiss
psychiatrist C. G. Jung called synchronicity. Moving beyond Jung's
psychological theory, he explores the plausibility and value of
viewing synchronicity as a form of spiritual experience and
clarifies connections between the phenomenon and a range of
traditional spiritual concepts, including numinosity,
miraculousness, transformation, unity, transcendence and immanence,
providence, and revelation. Through the detailed analysis of two
remarkable series of synchronistic events, Main illustrates and
further develops these connections. He also includes an examination
of the alleged synchronistic basis of the ancient Chinese Oracle of
Change, the I Ching.
