The other are the cases of telepathy (the non-fraud cases such as the Sinclairs), the experiments of Rhine, and the [[:en:Emanuel_Swedenborg|Swedenborg]] case, which are communication acts but for which causality is considered unacceptable.

The astrology case shows the defined thing in its pure form, where meaning is produced in a manner similar to [[:en:pareidolia|pareidolia]] whereas the interpersonal communication in the Rhine experiments and Swendenborg's knowlege of the fire in Stockholm are actually evidence of some as yet unknown causal principle effecting the communication (imo). So these latter are only provisionally and without examination synchronistic in contrast to the type case of the astrology data.
