Synchronicities I

Written By Natasha Luepke

I’ve read many books about sleeping better. The Mindful Way to a Good Night’s Sleep suggests tracking synchronicities. Well, the text says it’s a way to “bring the magic of dreams into your day.” I’m not interested in the magic of my dreams, but I do like tracking things. The book asks the reader to look for “echoes from dreams” and reflect on the meaning. Here are general (not just “dream echo”) synchronicities I’ve noted so far in 2025:

 

  • Archduke Franz Ferdinand

  • Cuspidors

  • Rob Schneider in Home Alone 2 specifically

  • Murder ballads

  • Hunter S. Thompson

  • Ezra Pound

  • Tardigrades

  • "Malkovich malkovich"

  • Wee-woo taxi

  • Apotheosis

  • “Waltzing Matilda,” sort of. I was looking it up and learned that "Waltzing Matilda" Day is April 6, and by coincidence today is April 6.

  • Vultures

  • The non-nutritave coating from Christmas Vacation
