Synchronicity is a concept first introduced by analytical psychologist Carl G. Jung "to describe circumstances that appear meaningfully related yet lack a causal connection." Jung held that to ascribe meaning to certain acausal coincidences can be a healthy, even necessary, function of the human mind—principally, by way of bringing important material of the unconscious mind to attention. This further developed into the view that there is a philosophical objectivity or suprasubjectivity to the meaningfulness of such coincidences, as related to the collective unconscious.
Many of us experience weird coincidences or synchronicities regularly but don’t really understand what they mean. On this episode of Mysterious Universe Plus+ we discuss some bizarre synchronicity stories and attempt to understand the meaning of them. We also dive into the world of strange time-slips and debate their role in this chaotic modern world.
This week we sit down with Paranormal researchers Greg and Dana Newkirk to discuss HELLIER, a five-part, cinematic documentary series following an investigation into unsolved mysteries, impossible synchronicities, and a web of high strangeness which stretches from the heart of Appalachian coal country.
Driven by a plea for help from a man under supernatural assault, Greg, Dana, and their crew find themselves in a dying coal town, where a series of strange coincidences leads them to a decades-old mystery with far-reaching implications.
In our Plus+ extension, members will hear of a truly strange MIB encounter that baffled even the most experienced of researchers and we discover links to the high strangeness discovered in Hellier.
In what can be described as the most extraordinary past life story we’ve ever covered, we discuss the journey of a man who went into the Amazon jungle to heal a spiritual emptiness only to be thrust into a world of Nazi SS, French Feng Shui and guiding synchronicities. Fragments of the soul collide with future lives in this fascinatingly detailed story.
Dark synchronicities, the K scale, and mysterious Egg phenomena all seem to point towards a unifying force in the universe and the true nature of the ‘coincidence’.
We then look at a unique Sasquatch habituation attempt in North Carolina that twists and turns its way to an unbelievable conclusion.
A casual exploration of a local crystal shop leads Aaron to ponder the meaning of coincidence and the role it plays in directing our lives. On this episode we take a look at some incredible synchronicities and how they changed the personalities of the people they affected in profound ways. We also take a peek at the unusual lives of British eccentrics and the bizarre contraptions they gave to the world.
Many of us have experienced synchronicities in our daily lives; from thinking about a song before it suddenly appears on the radio to more extreme situations like knowing that a family member is in need of help. Fascinating and shocking as they may be for the experiencer they often seem to only have personal implications. However what role could synchronicities play in our collective consciousness, how do they influence entire populations and could they change the course of the human condition? We discuss these profound ideas and hear how King Kong, The Loch Ness Monster and murderous dictators are associated with astrology.
It’s common for UFO researchers to begin their careers taking a view of the phenomena from the “nuts and bolts” perspective. However for some that approach often gives way to the far more unusual psi and high strangeness elements. For this episode we discuss the adventures of a reluctant Psi UFO researcher who through a series of unusual synchronicities was thrust deep into the weirdest facets of the UFO enigma.
We then tour a house of mayhem said to be infested with invisible entities, MIB and other dangerous foes.

We discuss her incredible story on this season premier episode.
We then take a look at the strange calls coming from the recent building collapse in Florida and describe some unusual fringe calls from the unknown.
