Absolutely it's both--coincidence and common sense! Jung's ideas on synchronicity apply to the entire collective unconscious. Think of how a large school of fish or flock of birds turns all at once, but not because they're following a leader. I think there's a great spirit moving through America right now because of Kamala Harris, a spirit of hope that transcends just one person or the ordinary cognitive process. I read Life After Doom but was still having trouble finding any enthusiasm or hope, but after Harris became the de facto nominee, McClaren's ideas suddenly and unexpectedly clicked into place. I highly recommend the John Stewart song "Strange Rivers" sung by Joan Baez, as well as Deepak Chopra's book SYNCHRODESTINY, to explore synchronicities and meaningful coincidences at the individual and societal levels. There's mojo out there!

Thanks for recommending "Strange Rivers" and Chopra's book.
I don't think we should measure politicians that closely. They're only people!
I feel the phrase/concept of 'grieve prophetically' is so strong .... it's one to think upon !
