Morphology
synchronistic = synchronicity (semi-transparent) = synchron + istic
Derived from the specialized concept 'synchronicity', so the specific Jungian sense is not fully inferable from 'synchron-' alone.
Etymology
Synchronistic can also mean a meaningful coincidence — events that come together in time and feel connected. The word uses syn- 'together' and chron- 'time', so you can remember it as 'things happening together in time' that seem to have a special link even without a clear cause.
