I would have never expected a subject that relies on facts learned through experiments and observation to have such passionate and seductive undertones.
As a young child, I never really cared for science. I felt science was always doing it’s best to define what we could perceive before us; always trying to solve and quantify life.
I was never fond of defining much of anything; for to define is to limit, and with this particular theme in mind, I never took much interest in the studies of science.
However, it was only when I started experiencing this sort of unexplained magnetic pull towards certain people upon meeting; complete strangers that in some cases crossed my path in some of the rarest and most inexplicable ways that I started philosophizing over these type of strange connections.
At some point I realized that all of these magnetic meetings proved to be a shared and real connection. Some which were there at a very specific point in time of my life, simply to teach me a lesson, or serve its purpose. While others permeated so strongly that they could not even be explained.
This is when I became fascinated with the theory of quantum entanglement.

The magnetic pull.
Have you ever wondered why it is that we are somehow forced (without explanation) towards one particular person over another? How do these almost crazy serendipitous connections occur, where everything instantly feels so familiar that it’s almost as if we’ve met before? All these feelings, which almost feel like memories of home, rushing through our bodies without even an exchange of words.
Have you ever connected with someone in a real spooky way? For example, dreaming of someone that you’d never spoken to before, or feeling drawn to a stranger in such a away that you were intuitively prompted to muster up the courage and reach out to them; your very first words to them so strangely in sync with whatever they had going on in their life at that very moment, that the impact of those words changed their life instantaneously, as well as yours, forever?
Have you ever met someone and instantly knew you would spend infinite amounts of moments with them. A love at first sight sort of connection; a sort of premonition of what was to come .
Yet, how is it that we can feel as if we have fallen in love with someone without really truly knowing them?
These type of “deep” connections transcend the understanding of what we know or have defined for ourselves as “real.”
Connections that transcend both time and space; maybe even reaching across multiple dimensions.
Them comes the world of Quantum Physics.
Quantum Physics suggests that:
“everything in the universe has BOTH a particle and wave nature, at the same time.”
“Properly speaking, the objects described by quantum physics are neither particles nor waves, but a third category that shares some properties of waves (a characteristic frequency and wavelength, some spread over space) and some properties of particles (they’re generally countable and can be localized to some degree)”
Basically speaking, the universe is but an infinitely vast symphony of vibrations; a large sea of energy. Nothing is solid. Electrons, photons, and atoms in the quantum physics world are waves (not little atom or electron balls as we learned in school).
The quantum physics is in the waves; Light is made of waves and also particles.
Energy is therefore a spectrum of color emitted through light. This spectrum of color corresponding to a particular wavelength, and light being nature’s way of transferring energy through space. All of which is derived but from frequencies and wavelengths.
Absolutely brilliant!
Our eyes are sensitive to light which lies in a very small region of the electromagnetic spectrum labeled “visible light”. This “visible light” corresponds to a wavelength range of 400 – 700 nanometers (nm) and a color range of violet through red. The human eye is not capable of “seeing” radiation with wavelengths outside the visible spectrum.
And then there is timing. They say that timing is everything, and when it comes to human interaction and connections, there have been so many times that at first glance timing may not have appeared to be in one’s favor.
Yet, when looking back and connecting the dots, it would more than likely appear that everything actually happened in divine order.
The timing for each event and any particular occurrence has been perfectly calculated within our story. For whatever’s happened up to now was supposed to happen when it happened.
Time is an illusion which merely exists so that everything does not happen at once.
Whereby, as explained by Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity: time, space, matter, and energy are locked together in a beautiful and intimate, maybe even sexual, embrace.
“…for us physicists believe the separation between past, present, and future is only an illusion, although a convincing one.” ~ Albert Einstein
One aspect of Einstein’s Special Theory of Relativity is that we now understand that space and time are merged into a four-dimensional space-time, a “block universe,” where time is like space, but with precise coordinates, an order or direction of time and even causation, for which all points are projected as a temporal perspective by the observer of the reality.
” Time is tense less, all points equally “real,” so that future and past are no less real than the present”
And so, this is where Infinity comes in. Infinity has always been my favorite mathematical symbol. The idea of timeliness, eternal life. An infinite array possibilities, of everything and nothingness as one – now that’s what I call sexy.
What more romantic than the idea that everything in the universe is infinite, including energy, and therefore, ourselves. The idea that time does not truly exist; well at least not as we know it.
So, if time and space are merely but an illusion, then couldn’t it be possible to feel “entangled” to someone across time and space, including those we have never even met, or at least not in that particular observable moment that we call “the present”?
Now that we’ve had some Romance, here comes the Real Passion – Quantum Entanglement.
Quantum Mechanics, a branch of physics, describes it as particles of light in love; “whereby it is possible to have particles that are so intimately linked that a change to one affects the other, even when they are separated at a distance.”
This idea, called “entanglement,” is part of the branch of physics called quantum mechanics, a description of the way the world works at the level of atoms and particles that are even smaller. Quantum mechanics says that at these very tiny scales, some properties of particles are based entirely on probability. In other words, nothing is certain until it happens.
Fast Facts:
› Entangled particles influence each other instantaneously even when they are physically far apart.
› In the 1960s, theoretical physicist John Bell proposed that a model of reality with hidden variables must allow for this entanglement.
› Three papers published in 2015 support Bell’s hypothesis.
Albert Einstein described it as “spooky action at a distance,” but in other words what quantum entanglement suggests is that when two or more particles (usually electrons or photons) interact, their wave function becomes entangled in such a way that some properties of each particle are now dependent on what happens to the other particle.
Entangled particles would remain “connected” even if they were on opposite sides of the universe; so intimately bound that one particle would “know” what the other is doing.
Real entanglement experiments have been performed successfully demonstrating that if one particle is affected by a force or measurement, when entangled, the other reacts at the same moment, even if they are separated by an abysmal amount of space.
And to go a little deeper here, in an article entitled “Quantum Entanglement Could Stretch Across time” scientists also suggest that entanglement may also bind particles not only across space, but also “across time.“
Why? Well as mentioned earlier on, time does not exist. It is merely an illusion.
And so if time does not exist, and if we are merely made up of energy, vibrating particles that could become entangled across any distance and space, could it be possible that for those deep heart connections that we experience, that our souls are somehow bound to one another, having been entangled in some other time or space; be it the past, the future, or in some other part of the universe or dimension?
Could the quantum mechanics theory of entanglement explain why sometimes souls recognize each other upon meeting?
Does the universe conspire for certain souls to meet each other in a particular point in time; in a particular lifetime, or have our particles become entangled, and therefore destined to simply find one another?
Could this be a scientific explanation for intuitively understanding another soul without ever truly knowing them?
In fact, we may never really know the answers to these questions during our lifetime, but what a beautiful orchestrated love story stemming from these eye-opening science theories of quantum physics.
