Become a Kairomancer Synchronicity is when the universe gets personal. Through this book of games and enchanting stories, you'll learn how to monitor the play of coincidence and the symbolic resonance of incidents in daily life in order to tap into the deeper logic of events, receive extraordinary counsel, and have wonderful fun.
You will be invited to become a kairomancer: someone who is poised to catch the messages in special moments when synchronicity is in play - and to take action to seize the opportunities those moments present. To be a kairomancer, you need to trust your feelings as you walk the roads of this world, to develop your personal science of shivers, and to recognize in your gut and your skin that you know far more than you hold on the surface of consciousness.
This is a way of real magic, which is the art of bringing gifts from a deeper world into this one. Follow it, and you will put a champagne fizz of enchantment into your everyday life.
Synchronicity is when the universe gets personal.

"Sidewalk Oracles is CPR for the soul."
- Larry Dossey, MD, author of One Mind
"After using Robert Moss's eighteen games for playing with signs, symbols, and synchronicity, I can attest to the incredible value, as well as delight, in following his guidance."
- Joyce Hawkes, PhD, author of Cell-Level Healing
"Robert Moss is peerless in shifting us from seeing our life as boring and ordinary to seeing it as filled with meaningful messages and magic."
- Stephen Dinan, CEO, The Shift Network
"Jung defined synchronicity as a 'just-so' moment that unexpectedly provokes a meaningful discovery or connection. Sidewalk Oracles gives us a delightful sampling from Robert Moss's life of just-so stories and encounters. It may just trigger you into remembering a personal moment of secret happiness that you had forgotten. May it be so!"
- Ralph Metzner, author of The Well of Remembrance Robert Moss, the creator of Active Dreaming, teaches people around the world to transform, heal, and optimize their lives. He is also a poet and novelist. His books include The Three "Only" Things, Active Dreaming, and Dreaming the Soul Back Home. He spends half his year on the road and half at home in upstate New York.
