Will IT
I went out to do laundry, stopping at a drive-thru for coffee.
I was listening the following video, “The Secret Law of Thelema”:
The video is about the “True Will,” not merely one’s desires or willpower, but one’s intent and purpose.
In my observation and experience, there is a direct correlation between intention and synchronicity so what happened next makes perfect sense to me.
I looked up to see a truck with “GOODWILLIT” on the side. It was a delivery truck for Goodwill. I instantly thought about what the narrator was saying about the Will, and the need to distinguish it from mere egoic desires.
Behind the truck, straight ahead, was a Goodwill. Now we have two references to the Will tying into the video and my thoughts on it at the same time.
I reached for a journal to write this down—something the video discusses, the so-called “magickal diary” for annotating such occurences. The specific one I had started two years ago. It only had one entry and it was the word “agape.”
The backpack I had was from a Goodwill and when I removed the journal, the Goodwill tag came out.
The video is about Thelema, a cult based on the concept of a higher will. Thelema means WILL, but in a higher sense than willpower, such as one’s life’s purpose, soul calibration with the universe, etc..
Agape means LOVE. But love in the higher sense; love of creation, god, charity, goodness. GOOD WILL would be one way to describe agape.
The motto of Thelema is LOVE under WILL.
The journal was only there because I “randomly” grabbed it from a box the night before. The synchronicity at the drive-through started much sooner. These “random” or “impulsive” acts are when the “higher self” is reaching through and taking action “through me,” facilitated by intuition and the alignment with the self and the higher self.
I have more to say about this but the key takeaway: synchronicity is not a sign from an external power or “the universe,” but is intra-communication with aspects of one’s self which are not constrained by ego.

After posting this, the following was on my X feed:
Note the symbol. It’s the same as the one representing Thelema.
Horizon has implications as well…
