Synchronicity
Synchronicity
(meaningful coincidence)... Synchronicity
is a term first coined by Dr Carl G Jung... In
recent years the term "synchronicity" was introduced into pop culture
consciousness by the artist, Sting (an avid student of Jung) and the
Police. And
now of late - books, such as the the best seller book entitled "The Celestine
Prophecy," rely heavily upon the experience of "synchronicity."
Trust
me... in order to assist you in gaining a fuller understanding and appreciation
for the Jungian concept of "synchronicity" - I need you to follow
me on a round about, circuitous path called the Journey of Wholeness,
or "Unus Mundus"...
Unus
Mundus
(literally meaning: One World)
Journey of Wholeness
 |
(The
four elements are depicted by the four cardinal Zodiac signs: Aries
- fire, Cancer - water, Libra - air and Capricorn - earth) |
Unus
Mundus is the conjunctio...
It's
the royal mystical marriage of:
| Heaven/Earth
|
|
|
| |
Sun/Moon
|
|
| |
|
King/Queen
|
transformed
back into the original, undivided
unity of the world soul...
the world logos... the god image within...
Unus Mundus is the final reuniting of our spirit, soul, and body with
the world soul.
Unus
Mundus In Alchemy
Renaissance
alchemist Gerhard Dorn's highest goal and desire was transforming
the four elements (fire, water, air, and earth) back into the original
One World unity of Unus Mundus.

"Learn
from within thyself to
know all that is in heaven and on earth, that
thou mayest be wise in all things. Knowest
thou not that heaven [spirit] and the elements [matter] were formerly
one, and
were separated by a divine act of creation from one another,
that
they might bring forth thee and all things?... Know
that man's greatest treasure is to be found within
man, and
not outside him...
From
the alchemist text "Theatrum Chemicum" Volume
One (1602 AD)
Gerhard Dorn's "Speculativae philosophiae..."

Unus
Mundus In Mythology
In
mythology, Unus Mundus is
that mythical, imaginal place where heaven
touches earth... Unus Mundus is the mystical
land beyond all time and space...
a sphere of unity where
the opposites of:
life/death
love/hate
peace/war
good/evil
spirit/matter
all
merge into one another and
cease to exist separately... Then,
there is only the One...
It's
All Greek To Me?
In
Greek mythology - one such mythical place was the Cave of the Nymphs. The
Cave of the Nymphs was the final stop on the journey of the Greek hero,
Odysseus. (Here's the description written by Homer.)
The
Cave of the Nymphs was considered to be a sacred, "set apart" place where
heaven [spirit] and earth [matter] meet. The
cave was a place where souls descended from heaven by the northern door.
It was here that souls obtained their bodies and were born into the world
of time/space existence. And
likewise, souls returned to this to cave when it was their time to depart
from the southern door. It was here that they shed their bodies in order
to head back to their celestial home.
