"Is there a copy of you reading this article? A person who is not you but who lives on a planet called Earth, with misty mountains, fertile fields and sprawling cities, in a solar system with eight other planets? The life of this person has been identical to yours in every respect. But perhaps he or she now decides to put down this article without finishing it, while you read on. The idea of such an alter ego seems strange and implausible, but it looks as if we will just have to live with it, because it is supported by astronomical observations." From http://sciam.rsc03.net/servlet/cc?lJpDWXUEIHimplmFPHtDNtKDLKNE0EY I find this subject very fascinating. I wonder if that's true, when we read the cards, we could be drawing... for the other.

could well be. a little story for you... i had a mentor when i was in art school. he became a surrogate father for me. ... anyway, he had a daughter. he and her mother were divorced and it was a touchy relationship. it turned out we were born on the very same day, same year. after a couple of years his daughter and i met. we soon discovered our lives had paralled in many ways. ways i'm not going to share, lol. but kind of spooky in a way. way too much in common. we knew each other so well, but yet we had this strange feeling of not needing to further a relationship. we all lost touch for about 10 years. then one day i called him. i found out his daughter had had a son. the same year, month and day i had my son.

Even the people who shout 'coincidence!' at every occassion possible would think twice here. There's no coincidence. Maybe you should deepen that relationship to find out what it means, if you're 'parallel twins' and maybe even: how or why? Just a thought, Athara

On Monday, April 21st at 1:21 AM, a friend of a friend born on April 21st at 1:21 AM gave birth to a daughter -- both in the same town. This kind of synchronicity gives one pause, to say the least.
