You are interpreting this correctly in being a divine hint. This again was orchestrated to happen, knowing you would think of this, and that actuality of circumstances paralleling a past fortunate experience was a kind of pointer towards this being something that could be very rewarding and deserving of consideration. So this is what we mean by "orchestration," helping people see the light. What they do in response is always up to them but we will make the light shine to at least point the way forward.
