Wisdom of the Week – Synchronicity

 Lucian Eyers © 2008
 
A friend emailed me with this question, ‘What is it about the number seven – why so lucky?’ After explaining the significance of this number I finished by saying, “There is no such thing as luck. However, if people believe seven will bring them good fortune, then this will be so.”
This Wednesday saw the release of the Chinese artist Ai Weiwei by the Chinese state government.


On the same day, “Hundreds of people were killed and another 8,000 injured in a strong earthquake that rocked a remote mountainous area of north-western China on Wednesday.
Following is a list of the country's most deadly reported quakes in recent years:
April 14, 2010: A quake with a magnitude of 6.9 kills at least 400 and injures another 8,000 in the remote north-west province of Qinghai.
May 12, 2008: A 8.0-magnitude quake strikes the southwestern province of Sichuan, leaving nearly 87,000 dead or missing. Another 4.45 million are injured in the worst quake disaster to hit China in more than three decades.”1
The list the news website provides is a long one, but the point has been made.


My wife asked me why the Chinese had finally agreed to release the artist Ai Weiwei. I said the Chinese are a superstitious people and their leaders now believe they are being punished for wrongly imprisoning someone who dared to speak out against their dictatorship. First with the recent floods and now with this earthquake.


However, tragedy does not befall us because we are cursed. We attract tragedy through our actions and thoughts. This also applies to when we wish to attract abundance. The difference between being cursed or repaying karmic debt is an important distinction to make. The first, blames a third party for one’s actions – the second takes responsibility for one’s actions.
Coincidences in our lives are signs by our angels and guides that we are on the right or the wrong path. Our Universe is not the consequence of chance but is exacting. If we have done wrong then this karmic debt must be paid. If we have done well, then we will enjoy the fruits of our rewards. The timing of such events is also orchestrated by spirit. In knowing this you can be sure that all that happens to us is for a divine reason and at the right time.
In the case of China, it may seem the people are the ones who are suffering and not the leaders and industrial powers responsible for accruing this karmic debt. Many people at a higher soul level have agreed at this time to remove the backlog of exploitation to both people and our planet. The suffering of the Chinese will show us the consequence of not honouring each other and will encourage global compassion and aid. These terrible disasters will help to cleanse our planet, as the souls who die will take with them the negative energy that generations have created. The Chinese people will also begin to take charge of their lives and no longer look to a few proactive individuals to make decisions for them. Only through such a huge physical shift can these changes take place.
Being late, unlucky, or another such failure should no longer exist in your life. You are in the right place at the right time and living the consequence of your thoughts and deeds – that is how your Universe works.
My illustration above is for a poem I wrote for ‘The Sparky Book of Hours’ called ‘The Dragonfly’. One of the most useful ways in helping you to synchronize your thoughts with the Divine, is to avoid judgment.
