The Road to Strange: Synchronicity

It is the next book in The Road to Strange series. It collects synchronicity experiences among the nearly 2,000 interviews that Michael has conducted at home and during his travels over the last four decades.

Although the typical stories collected in The Road to Strange book series typically include spooky accounts of space and time interactions, most of these things are not likely to happen to you. But you never know. In this book, you'll read plenty of examples of odd space-time coincidences that may conceivably pop up in your life at some time.

Instead of dealing with all sorts of true-life travel accounts in my True Travel Tales series, this book now pauses all that to explore the spooky world of coincidental space and time and many of the no doubt related variations in between!

Instead of reading about the variety of dangers and mishaps of others and safety and security in travel, which are part and parcel of my True Travel Tales book series, wherein we focus on and gain a healthier respect for the actual dangers and risks of travel and adventure, the point of The Road to Strange book series is to explore a virtually little-known aspect of reality, namely meaningful coincidences - the extremely odd synchronicities - that seem to defy the laws of chance. Indeed, synchronicity, i.e., apparently meaningful coincidences that seem impossible, do abound. And whereas some of these stories are potentially a little spooky, in that they seem to be so unlikely or well-nigh impossible to occur, and what's more, even hint at some sort of meaningful, or purposeful efforts on the behalf of some kind of potentially universal consciousness to be recognized, acknowledged, and even remembered.

Some of the accounts featured in this book are tales from times long gone. Many synchronicities seem purposeful in making people aware of and remembering them. Other meaningful coincidence experiences seem to be endless, repeating cycles that are like replays, even including, in some cases, apparent potentially discarnate energies that seemingly try over and over to resolve conflicts and possibly be heard again from times long past.

Yes, we are often the objects of or targets of synchronicity, whether in our travels or on our own home turf. It, therefore, behooves us to think of this book as not only a compendium of space-time variants that we may experience in life, but perhaps we ought to consider synchronicity and its variants as alternate space-time realities which conjoin or overlap with our own in a shared universe of sorts? Or maybe even a so-called "Contiguous Universe" no less?

In this compendium of synchronicity tales, we broaden our view of not only what we think of as the typical meaningful coincidence kind of experiences, but also to incorporate other variants of reality as well.

In The Road to Strange: Synchronicity, be prepared to explore the many stories of impossibly-seeming space-time variations of the human experience and much more.

Such synchronicities and their related variants may never happen expressly to you. Still, assuredly, something strange of a space-time manifestation will invariably happen to a friend, a neighbor, or perhaps even a relative.

If but one of these tales of someone's strange space-time variant of ultra-meaningful, seemingly impossible, coincidental events is true, what then? One must conclude that so many other reports of similar space-time encounters may, likewise, undoubtedly be true.
