Synchronicities: God Winks from the Universe

Over the past quarter of 2021, I have experienced God Winks that have ripped my body open and exposed my soul to the larger truth of the Universe.  They have enlightened me to the energetic connections that are pulsating around me at all times.  

Have you ever felt as if you are hearing a message from the Universe, whether cautioning you or guiding you towards your Diving Destination?  There are signs all around us... constantly.  Urging us to move forward.  Letting us know that the Universe has our back.

Synchronicity is a term coined by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung (1875-1961).  In my last article about Co-Creating with the Universe, I have identified several different examples of synchronicities.   Here are a few more: seeing a word repeatedly, you have a dream about an old friend and shortly after, run into them.

First, let me explain that I believe that the Universe and God are One, similar to Pantheists like Albert Einstein and Ralph Waldo Emerson.  Pantheists state "There is nothing separate or distinct from God, for God is the universe. If, on the other hand, the conception taken as the foundation of the system is that the great inclusive unity is the world itself, or the universe, God is swallowed up in that unity, which may be designated nature" (Wikipedia.org).  Another way to look at this is in the Hindi mantra of Sohum (सो ऽहम् )  meaning "I am She/He/That" in Sanskrit. In Vedic philosophy it means identifying oneself with the universe or ultimate reality. Therefor, my best short hand explanation of when this happens is "God winks".  

Though many people perceive signs or spiritual meaning in synchronistic events, most scientists believe that such events are more likely coincidences that only seem meaningful due to aspects of human thinking such as confirmation bias.  Scientists often hold the belief that the brain is simply picking up patterns in our surroundings, which is what the brain is trained to do, and we seek out information to support our ideas and ignore information that challenges them.

I used to be a 'non believer'.  I used to try to make sense of everything in the most logical way because I was always told I was too much of a 'dreamer' and too 'illogical and emotional', so to combat that 'negative' descriptor, I would work extra hard to make sense of everything in the most logical way.  

Since then, I have found my dreamer again.  I have embraced her and embraced synchronicities, magical experiences, and the energetic frequencies of joy that lead me to a greater connection with the Universe.  

I want to share an experience I have been going through since September of this year, which I have coined as "The Number 3 and ChakraLee" (which I promise you will understand later!)  

In September, my husband and I decided to sell our home in Georgia and return to Buffalo, NY to be with all of our family.  We have been in GA for almost 20 years, close to 1/2 my lifetime.  Our 3 children have only always known GA as their home.  This was a huge decision that comes along with so many different emotions, but that is a story for another day.  

Since that time, our house has gone on the market, sold, and we are in the process of buying another house in NY.  Along this entire journey, there have been synchronicities that I just can't ignore.  

Let me give you a few glaring examples from my house search experience since September of this year:

Before I bring you up to present day, there are just a few synchronicities to understand.  During the week we put our house on the market, I kept seeing the number 333 everywhere, which is a sign that a looming decision needs your attention. It's a signal that your path ahead is clear for moving forward. The 333 angel number indicates that despite your fears, anxieties, mislaid plans, or wrong turns, you're on the right path. The universe is urging you to keep going.  The sale of our home had the number 333.  I ended up meeting the family who has bought our home, and when I was talking with the wife, who is also on a spiritual journey of her own, I mentioned the number 333 to her and she immediately questioned "how did you know?!".  I looked at her with confusion and she told me that she had seen the number 333 everywhere leading up to and through the bidding on our home.  Then she pointed out the that our home had the landing marks of 333 in the grid of our land.  And if that wasn't enough, let's continue this synchronistic journey...

After my personal toddler tantrum when my husband changed the housing plans on me and after I remembered to breathe, I came to acceptance of the possibilities and opportunities the Universe was handing to me.  I began searching for houses for my husband to check out and we began discussing a few.  Two days into this search, I noticed I was still having this internal battle.  I told him I needed to take a hike on my own for the day (one of my ways of Spiritually Connecting and Letting Go).  I took a 5 1/2 mile hike that led me through woods, cliffs, and rivers to a beautiful boulder to sit and meditate on.

On my way back, I ran into a man who joined me on the hike back to my car.  His name is Raphael (side note: Archangel Raphael is known as the angel of healing. He works to heal peoples minds, bodies and spirits so they can enjoy peace and good health to the fullest extent of God's will for them) and he begins talking to me about his spiritual journey at the tender age of 26.  Out of literally nowhere, he quietly says "333 Chakralee".  I stopped dead in my tracks and asked him what that meant to him.  He explained "You are a healer of Chakras, Lee".  I thought to myself "Holy.  Shit."  Not only is his name Raphael.  Not only did he say "333".  He completed all of it with Lee, which is the name that my family often calls me, and only my family refers to me in that way.  That day, I came home with peace and gratitude and sent my husband to New York to look at the fixer uppers that will be our temporary home as we flip it for an investment property -which we found and bought as we followed the guidance from the Universe.  

And just last night as I was chatting with my husband outside by the beautiful fire he built, I realized another set of 3's.  We are moving 3 times over the next 30 days.  My husband questioned, "what's the last 3?".  That my friend, I do not know yet, though I am sure it will appear.  

My encouragement to you is that you stay open to the signs all around you.  Most of the time we are working hard to create highly logical decisions, especially if we consider them "big" transitions.  I challenge you to feel into the decisions.  Trust your intuition.  Trust the Universe.  Allow the feelings to move you. That is when you are in flow with the energy all around you. That is when you are open to the God Winks.
