Natural Synchronicity Novel
A poetic metaphysical novel
Read the novel
Natural Synchronicity is a contemplative journey traversing the fine line between fiction and reality. It opens in the field that precedes form, the pure potential of information.
The novel moves outward with Iona and Koan: two travellers wandering through landscapes and cultures, facing social distortion and dealing with the demands of daily living, exploring the architectures of the apparent world and finding a natural subtle harmony beneath it.
The novel is not plot-driven. It travels through states of attention: long journeys on foot and by train, forest clearings, conversations in cafés, and a rhythmic natural synchronicity. This is no ordinary narrative, but a thinning of membrane between each other, the apparent and the whole.
Iona is a metaphysical wanderer, carrying a quantum soul and a deep dissatisfaction with the bureaucratic, debt-driven structures of modern life. Her journey moves through the strange cities of Cananga, finding meditative spaces, wilderness, and living with the question of whether freedom can still be found beneath the machinery of the age.
Koan moves from the damaged outback of a colonised homeland, through the spell of the system toward the possibility of a life lived closer to Earth, spirit, and natural law.
Their journeys traverse a lofty summit where separation begins to loosen and the apparent divisions between people, places, cultures, and ideas dissipate as the universe reveals itself in a metaphysical symphony of being. This comes and great cost as their previous identities and relationship shatter in the process,
Beneath the surface of the book runs a quiet current of inquiry. It asks why natural law principles have been replaced by social conventions. It investigates how the apparent world operates as a fiction: a clay form shaped around something truer.
How to approach the novel
Natural Synchronicity is best read in the spirit of a consciousness journey.
It will appeal to readers dissatisfied with modern living, those souls who have suffered here but who also sense a deeper field of liberation. It will appeal to people who like to sit alone in nature, or who muse on a deeper pattern below the silence. It will also suit readers dissatisfied with mainstream conventions, those who dream of new horizons, and those who wonder about an older wisdom reflected in land, stars, and seasons.
The novel is the poetic and philosophical root of the wider Natural Synchronicity project, which is now focused on the land-based practice of Ethiculture. Broadly, the project explores what living in tune with higher natural ideals might feel like: reduced harm, right relation, natural consequence, and honouring other sentient living beings.
