Synchronicity, Signs and Symbols Are Everywhere
The labyrinth is a universal symbol that dates back to ancient times. Our ancestors used labyrinth shapes through the ages. In many cultures walking the labyrinth was thought to be beneficial in many ways including bringing good fortune, protection, empowerment, spiritual insight, healing and connection to the Divine and Nature.
The symbolic world is the language of the Universe. Thus, words often do not convey the essence of the truth. Our perceptions create our inner stories, which in turn create our outer stories, which in turn create the directions of our lives. Spirals, triangles, circles, squares and crosses evoke feelings of connectedness that seem universal among human beings throughout history.
Cellular patterns, solar systems and waves of music all create patterns that respond to our living, breathing Universe. Good examples of these patterns are spider webs, the swirl of of our thumbprints and the tumultuous clouds of a hurricane all speak to us at a subconscious level.
The vastness of the Universe is beyond our comprehension. We live in a vibrant, alive, conscious, spiritual essence that whispers to us constantly at many levels. These whisperings can be dreams, animals or birds crossing our path, recurring numbers and meaningful coincidences of all types that defy explanations.
When you put a question or concern to the Universe, people who cross your path will often have a sign, message or some significance for you. A good example of the interconnectedness of our world is the following story.
His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day while trying to make a living for his family, he heard a cry for help from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog. There, mired to his waist in black muck was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and horrible death.
The next day, a fancy carriage drove up to the Scotsman's sparse surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy farmer Fleming saved. "I want to repay you," said the nobleman, "you saved my son's life."
"No, I can't accept payment for what I did", The Scottish farmer replied.
At that moment the farmer's son came to the door of the family home. "Is that your son?" the nobleman asked.
"Yes" replied the farmer proudly. "I'll make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my son will enjoy. If the lad is anything like his father, he'll grow to be a man we both will be proud of." And he did.
Farmer Flemings' son attended the very best schools and graduated from medical school in London. He became known throughout the world as Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of penicillin. Years later, the same nobleman's son who was saved from the bog was stricken with pneumonia. What saved his life this time? Penicillin. The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill. His son's name? Sir Winston Churchill.
