The Several Meanings in a Meaningful Coincidence

By Bernard D. Beitman, M.D.

Four aspects of meaning in coincidences are:

Emotional charge: Coincidences usually provoke surprise, wonder, curiosity, or interest. This creates a feeling of significance, of meaningfulness.

Degree of similarity: Two or more elements of the coincidence have the same, or similar, meaning.

Explanation: Coincidences usually trigger the question, “What does this mean?” Sometimes this question indicates a search for how the coincidence happened, its cause or explanation.

Use: The question “what does this mean?” also indicates an attempt to understand the implications for the person’s future, its personal significance.
