Abstract

Coincidence is defined as 2 occurrences with no common causal origin, but that there is something remarkable about their coming together. Examples are given. Synchronicity is explained as 2 events linked together in a meaningful manner, but with no causal explanation for their concurrence, yet, they occur more commonly than \'by law of averages.\' Jung is quoted as agreeing with this statement. Statistical considerations are mentioned, including the Phi phenomena, but the causes and archetypes are referred to as subjects too elaborate to be treated in this short paper.
