The different forms of the synchronistic phenomenon are analyzed to evaluate its presence and significance at a clinical level. Psychodynamic aspects of the experience according to different analytical orientations (Jung, Hillman, Bion) are confronted also in the light of historical and cultural paradigms between East and West. The central role of interpersonal relationship is considered as energetic field, symbolic experience, body/mind and psyche/matter inter-connectedness, individual and group positions.

Keywords: Relationship, Nature, Symbol, Non-linearity, Soul, Healing
