Fast synchronicity on a sunny afternoon

This afternoon something odd happened. After an overnight delay I was heading to the Centraal Station to catch my train to Paris. Walking along an Amsterdam canal in the afternoon sun, I recognized someone coming towards me. They said, "Hi Sarayu! I can't stop. I'm in a hurry." and then rushed off into the crowd. I was shocked and unsettled, but could not remember their name or how I might know them. Perhaps it was an hallucination. The sun was shining directly in my eyes. She was a woman between forty and fifty maybe. Even odder was the fact that in the morning I had the feeling that I would meet someone I know today near the station. It was a fast piece of synchronicity. This morning I read this on the Lost Symbologist. "It was as if I had traveled full cycle. Now it was time to return to Earth as a woman, to leave the world of the spirit and take on flesh and bones. For the very first time I became aware of the state of limbo I had been in, a spirit seeking incarnation." That was the moment when I had the intuitive feeling I would meet someone who would recognize me. Am I a recent arrival on this planet? If so, where do I come from?
