Book Review: Synchronicity by Elizabeth Spring
This fascinating memoir tells the story of two soul sisters connected across time through synchronicity. Synchronicity is the experience of two events being meaningfully linked, not by cause and effect, but by a shared sense of purpose or symbolism. That’s exactly what happened to astrologer Elizabeth Spring one day when she randomly picked up a book about English feminist and theosophist Annie Besant.
Intrigued, Spring looked up Besant’s birth chart and was stunned to discover they were born on the same day, almost at the same hour—100 years and an ocean apart. This uncanny connection led Spring to delve into Annie’s life, even moving her family across the U.S. to Ojai, California, the site of the Theosophical Society.
Part personal memoir and part historical exploration, Synchronicity also includes a fictionalized screenplay imagining Annie’s meeting with Madame Blavatsky, the founder of Theosophy. Spring’s blend of styles—memoir, biography, and creative writing—draws readers into her journey as she uncovers the life of a remarkable spiritual leader.
I highly recommend Synchronicity to anyone interested in spiritual growth, feminist history, astrology, or the deeper patterns that guide our lives. It’s an inspiring and unusual read about a woman’s search for meaning through the mirror of history.

Author’s note: Every feel you have 1 or 2 stories in your life that could truly merit a memoir? This is the one for me, and I hope some of you readers will give it a chance—it’s a chance for inspiration, humor, and —-oh my god did that really happen?? — Yes it did. Just like it’s written. Hope you take a look.
Intriguing.
