Default synchronous fortune

A person reads his horoscope and utters: Oh, synchronous fortune! A reign of good fate is about to befall me, starting at sunrise tomorrow!

Is there some special meaning to the expression synchronous fortune?
I know that "synchronous" means occuring at the same time but that doesn't seem to be the case here.
