The Synchronicity Key
The Hidden Intelligence Guiding the Universe and You


by David Wilcox
New York Times bestselling author David Wilcock unlocks the key to a universal life force that is influencing and guiding humanity toward enlightenment.

With The Source Field Investigations, David Wilcock joined Graham Hancock and Lynne McTaggart as a leading writer exploring the intersection of ancient mysteries and new science. He used cutting-edge alternative science to delve into the mysteries behind the 2012 prophecies, and readers embraced his findings: The Source Field Investigations was a New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestseller. In his new book, The Synchronicity Key, Wilcock embarks on an astonishing investigation into what lies beyond those prophecies—finding proof that everything in our lives is not only connected, it all influences everything else.

Using history, astrology, and synchronicity theory as well as concepts such as fractals, spiritual geometry, quantum physics, and other new research, Wilcock shows that there is a hidden architecture within time, guiding individuals and nations through a system of enlightenment Joseph Campbell called the Hero’s Journey. Historical events occur in shockingly precise, repeating cycles of time as a result. Once we understand and identify the hidden laws governing the fates of individuals and nations through seemingly random “synchronicity,” we are left with a remarkable blueprint of how best to lead our lives spiritually in the post-2012 world.

Our Thoughts:
I like the big "thinker" books.  The Synchronicity Key isn't what I expected for a book on synchronicity!  The book is definitely food for thought, whether you're advanced on your spiritual journey or just beginning. Author David Wilcox walks us through the global adversary, the hero's journey, and the cycles of the universe. 

A lot of time was spent on the Hero's Journey and the cycles of victory and defeat.  The hero's journey is one that is immediately understood - after all, every story that people love is a hero's journey.  The cycles of victory and defeat was a very interesting history lesson.  I appreciated that Wilcox also included one outside perspective that felt history was NOT repeating itself, but that the writers of history got bored and just wrote different names/places/times into the same history and called it good.  On to explaining the cycles and the fourth density shift - it's interesting that there are so many differing timelines that all say "soon" , some as early as 2011, some at 2016, and some later for the shift - it could happen in my lifetime, or not.  It would be fascinating to witness, or experience.

Prior to reading it, I think I expected the entire book to be more like chapters 6 - 8 (Karma is Real, Reincarnation, and Mapping out the Afterlife) but I'm glad it wasn't limited to that.   The only downside to The Synchronicity Key in my opinion, is that it felt a lot like conspiracy theory, especially with the marketing phrases meant to grab your attention, like "shocking", "compelling", "amazing", "stunning" (evidence).  While I did enjoy the whole book, I wish it were written a little less . . . market-y.  I am, however, thrilled that Wilcox put so much effort into documenting and referencing everything in The Synchronicity Key.  Many authors don't do that, or at least not as extensively, and you're left to take them at their word.  While many may not believe what Wilcox has to say in The Synchronicity Key, the proof is presented as best he can.
