Some will call this "confirmation bias." Like when I learn a new word, or a new fact, or a new pop culture reference etc. and then I see it surface later in a different context--and then I think, "Wow, it's convenient I just learned what that means!"
Hearing that favorite Beatles tune on the radio when you were thinking of it isn't so unlikely. It's bound to happen at some point.
However, I still don't buy the "bias" explanation for everything.
When these things start grabbing your attention repeatedly, and in the most unusual ways..then it becomes synchronicity.
I'm still waiting to see what 11:11 is all about. The "bias" explanation fails to adequately explain it for me.

With common things like a song on the radio.. yeah it's bound to happen a few times.. but not with acquaintances you haven't seen since childhood, not with movies from the 70's
Don't you agree?

It's not psychic when these things happen, it is a communication link between people of a kind. It is not paranormal either, the people running the show do not want us to know that we have this ability. It is called collective consciousness. Some people are better at this than others. Many intelligent people are not that much smarter, IQ tests are looking for people who can connect to this better at a higher frequency, the Beta frequency, and pooling them together. Our brain is a communication device, the frequency determines who we communicate with. Each mind holds a little information and a wireless transmission connects the people within a certain distance. People are not supposed to know this though, so don't be telling everyone.

Yes I knew you were going to say that?,
Seriously though I think the term sensitive is more accurate, many of us have experienced unusual and irrational occurrence in our lives and most simply screen it out of there mind but when you have experience Aports (spiritual teleportation of objects) and time or dimensional slip's, ghost like apparitions, UFO phenomena ( that may or may not be paranormal in nature but I believe there is a strong element there of) or many other things such as going somewhere you have never been and knowing it intimately but remembering how it was or used to be rather than how it is as well as having an identity crisis along with the awakened memory's that then fade rapidly, then your belief changes rapidly from sceptic to believer, and I am a believer.
Of course the also means we whom believe may also be more susceptible and gullible but we think we know what we think we know.edit on 9-7-2013 by LABTECH767 because: (no reason given)

Your pineal gland facilitates perceptions of the "other". Most peoples pineal gland has become calcified. This basically blocks psychic abilities. A decalcified pineal gland allows hightened awareness.

Yeah i had some experience with this.. Shared hallucinations to be precise..
But how does this relate to non-personal things like objects and movies?

So... what is it?
Most will call it The Law of Attraction.
But that doesn't really explain it.. and it could be something entirely different.
Lots of theories are circulating:
There might be an infinite amount of parallel universes.
Each with subtle differences, each with different outcomes to different choices.
And we can actually shift our consciousness into another universe by ''changing our vibration''.
Or maybe time is more of an illusion than we initially thought.
And so we have actually already experienced our entire life.
Whatever the cause is, we should be looking into this!
I'm sure everyone is familiar with this, so tell us your experiences..
tell us where you think it comes from.

Have you noticed any weird coincidences lately?
Like when you are thinking about someone you haven't seen in a while,
and later that day.. they call you!
Or when you think of something completely random, out of the blue.. and a while later..
BAM! there it is! Even though you havent seen it in years.
