Based upon recent quantum physics research by Italian physicist, Dr. Federico Faggin, Dr. Curcio Wilson's research in depth psychology suggests synchronicities are "spiritually causal." She is the founder of "the intuitive mindset method," a proven strategy that employs synchronicities as a personal GPS system to manifest intentions.
There seems to be a silent movement creeping slowly into our awareness. Have you noticed? It appears as a shift in consciousness, where the message begins as a whisper and then gradually, and seemingly without our awareness, increases in intensity. Do you feel it? Do you sense something is changing beneath the surface? It may feel like a gentle nudge or a stirring that cannot be denied at first. Yet, as time passes, this nudge begins to feel more like a push, like something that can no longer be ignored, and this nudge seems to have stages.
Initially, you may feel as if something or someone is trying to get a message to you, yet it is barely audible, quite vague, and out of reach, so you may ignore it. Then, without warning, this voice gets a bit more persistent, a bit louder, and a bit clearer. You begin to pay attention, and as you do, the message gradually comes into focus. You feel called by an unseen force, which starts by asking you to think about sharing this experience. You may convince yourself that your friends might think you are a bit crazy if you share it. After all, you can barely clarify these whispered concepts for yourself. Surprisingly, for those who push through the initial fear of sharing, they find many others are receiving a similar message. How is this possible?
The answer appears to be building within the field of quantum physics, specifically through the research of Italian physicist Dr. Federico Faggin. He is the inventor of the microprocessor. He published his book Irreducible in 2024,[1] wherein he suggests consciousness does not reside in the human brain. Rather, he describes the human brain as a receiver, much like a radio transmitter or a computer. He suggests the universe itself is conscious. This has profound implications for human potential and may help explain this vague awakening many people seem to be experiencing. Let us look at these implications.
Although no one can prove where thoughts come from, if Faggin is right and the universe itself is conscious, with the human brain acting as a receiver, it makes sense to consider the possibility that thoughts come through us as energy. Scientists have long known the brain has electrical energy, which is why an electroencephalogram, or EEG, works. It measures the electrical impulses in the human brain and translates these impulses into waves. Scientists have also known the human heart has magnetic properties which, together with the brain, create the electromagnetic energy of the heart and brain connection, as discussed in research conducted by the HeartMath organization.[2]
In this way, thoughts and feelings may be transmitted outside the human body to what classical field theory referred to as the quantum field, as described by Faraday and Maxwell.[3] It is here that electromagnetic impulses generated by the coherence of our heart and brain, when resonating at the same frequency, have the capacity to be projected into the cosmos, for example, into the quantum field. It seems we may be sending messages out into the world through our thoughts, amplified by our feelings, whether through conscious intention or unwittingly.
This is where the theory of entanglement may provide a bridge between what we send out and what we receive. Entanglement theory, when originally discovered in 1935, referred to the separation of photons and electrons. Einstein discovered that when systems such as spin were adjusted in one photon, the effect on the other photon instantaneously made the exact same adjustment.[4] Even though entanglement theory remains a theoretical experiment, it suggests that atomic particles with the same composition, separated by distance, appear to have an intimate connection which enables what happens to one to immediately happen to the other.
Whether this can be extrapolated from the atomic level to the electromagnetic level has yet to be proven. Yet, if humans are made of stardust and have the same composition as animals, planets, plants, minerals, and the Earth, might a conscious universe play a role in concert with the electromagnetic energy we send out into its quantum field? What might that role be? Perhaps current New Age theorists may have something viable when they suggest the universe may be listening. Our intentions might be heard by a conscious universe, and it might be speaking back to us through our thoughts and through synchronicities. Maybe that slight nudge we are hearing is the universe itself attempting to get our attention.
It does not appear likely that this idea can be “proven” by the scientific method, at least at this point in history. However, if we investigate the lived experience of many Indigenous tribes who have maintained a deeply personal relationship with the natural world, we find that some tribes, such as the Shipibo of northern Peru, do not believe in coincidences. For example, this tribe suggests that when an uncanny coincidence occurs, like the synchronicities we all experience from time to time, it is “the voice of the cosmos” confirming we are on the right path.
When I visited and studied this tribe for my doctoral research, I found their deep reverence for the consciousness inherent within all living things blessed them with a primordial relationship extending back millennia. They appeared to be in conversation with the universe in a way that modern civilization has largely lost due to years of domestication.
I would like to leave you with this final thought. Cultural historian Thomas Berry (1999) suggested humanity has disengaged from what he referred to as “the great conversation” when we established civilizations. He stated, “The universe is a communion of subjects, not a collection of objects.”[5] He believed every being has agency, meaning, and voice as the story of our cosmos unfolded. So, if that slight voice within you is trying to get your attention, perhaps it is time to listen, not in a scant or incidental manner, but to engage in “exquisite listening,” a term that suggests listening with your whole being, open to greater potentialities.
My research findings[6] suggest “the voice of the cosmos,” which Indigenous peoples experience regularly, may lead us to reconsider Carl Jung’s definition of synchronicity as acausal, meaning without a cause. My findings suggest synchronicity may be spiritually causal, and we, as humans, through our thinking and feeling, may be the cause. The reason a synchronicity may hold meaning for us could be because it originated within our thoughts first and was then sent out to the quantum field. Perhaps we are being asked to sharpen our intuition so that we have the ears to hear the “voice of the cosmos” arising within our hearts, allowing its message to be respected by our thinking brain and enabling us to resonate with the frequency that supports and sustains life.
The next time you experience a synchronicity, an uncanny coincidence that appears nearly magical, ask yourself, “What have I been musing about and hoping for lately? How might this uncanny coincidence have a message for me? Is it here to validate that I am on the right path, or is there something I may be missing?” Then close your eyes, sit very still, and place one hand over your heart for at least five minutes. Listen to the sounds around you as you remain open to that whispering voice. Who knows? This may be the start of a “great conversation.”
