I'm not claiming that. Not at all. I'm merely pointing out how many people use the words. You are the one using 'synchronicity'.

The sort of 'reasons' people refer to are 'karma' or 'fate' or 'gods plan' or 'guiding angel' or ESP (e.g. knowing a loved one is in trouble).

I suppose you could also use the word when you suspect a causal relation but have no clue what it is. We could assume that two identical cards are sent because of of some common cause although we have no idea what it is.
