In medieval times, humans felt contained in the world. Inner experience and outer world belonged together; all that happened was in God’s hands. Critical thinking and Enlightenment destroyed this kinship with things, and man got lonely in a strange world. But sometimes we experience a sudden, completely unexpected coincidence of an outside event with our psychic state—a happening that is meaningful to the highest degree and can even seem like a miracle.

C. G. Jung has taken such occurrences seriously and built on them his concept of synchronicity as an acausal connecting principle. With this, he brought the medieval idea of the correspondence of all things back into our time. Synchronistic experiences are at the basis of the notion of a “spiritualization” of matter, the assumption that “being is endowed with meaning.” Here I consider such a unity of the world, starting from synchronistic events, and taking dreams and popular archetypal legends into account.

在中世纪，人类感到被世界所包容。内在体验和外在世界是一体的；所发生的一切都在上帝的手中。批判性思维和启蒙运动破坏了这种与事物的亲缘关系，人在陌生的世界中变得孤独。但有时我们会经历一个突然的、完全出乎意料的外部事件与我们的精神状态的巧合——这种事件具有最高程度的意义，甚至看起来像是一个奇迹。

CG Jung 认真对待此类事件，并在此基础上建立了他的同步性概念作为非因果连接原则。有了这个，他把中世纪的万物对应的思想带回到了我们的时代。同步体验是物质“精神化”概念的基础，即“存在被赋予意义”的假设。在这里，我考虑了这样一个世界的统一，从同步事件开始，并考虑到梦想和流行的原型传说。
