Craps and Carl Jung

On my mind:
Craps Tables in Vegas
Does my belief that the world is conspiring in support of my perfect unfolding affect my trajectory, experience or chance?

In Carl Jung’s book, “Synchronicity”, he speaks to a study where they had 12,000 subject (humans) who completed 800 repetitions of trying to predict 25 cards being flipped by the testers in another location, out of sight. There were five set of symbols on these numbered cards. They found that the average prediction rate was 6.5 correct guesses out of 25, 1.5 higher than the statistical average.

They found that when the subjects had a renewed interest or enthusiasm, the number of correct predictions or guesses increased.

Is there a connection to the psychic unconscious directing the future when the subject placed faith, confidence, enthusiasm, zeal and trust in the game?

They found yes.

The number of correct predictions increased to 10.1 - 12.5 in this case/phenomenon.

The odds of guessing all 25 cards in sequence were 1: in a quintillion. 1 (x 15 - 0’s).

It happened once. The subject whom it happened to had a pattern of predicting 2.5 times higher than the group average consistently.

On my mind:
Craps tables in Vegas - bring your hype squad.
Does my enthusiastic trust and belief that the world is conspiring in support of my perfect unfolding affect my trajectory, experience or chance?

I believe our odds of aligning with our perfect unfolding are less that 1: a quintillion.

But what do I know.
