mistoferin -> Precognitive Dreams (7/22/2007 9:20:50 PM)
Over the last couple of weeks I have had at least 3 dreams that would seem now in hindsight, to be somewhat precognitive. This is not something that is common for me. The first one kind of made me step back and go "Wow, how weird!". But now that it has happened a third time in such a short time span, it's really kinda got me wondering about all this. Just seems like a few too many coincidences. Wondering if others have these sorts of dreams and what they think about them. If you do have them, do you tell the people in your dream about them? even if it wasn't a "good" dream?

I have been drunk at least three times this week, and I tell everybody what the fuck I know, whether it is realistic or not. XO, love you babe------you are just working shit out somewhere. Ron

You're going to have to really trust your instinct when it comes to raising such a subject with a friend/family member. Could it be brought up as a concern rather than a premonition? There are wyrd dreams, and there are dreams that are just weird. If it seems critical, and you have confidence in them, ask yourself if you'd rather look like a complete kook to someone you car about than live with not talking about it somehow.

mistoferin, I used to think this kind of think was a bunch of bull (I am overly realistic) however, many years ago I had a very vivd dream that led to a break up of my first girlfriend (yeah first love, I know) and the funny thing is that I woke up relieved it was a dream...however some 6 months later the things that happened in the dream in almost the same order happened in real life, and led to the break up...maybe it could be that my subconcious was more aware than what I wanted to know, or who knows. To this day it baffles me, and it has never happened again (at least not that I will remember when waking up).

No but I wish I did! I'd love to have a "I won the Powerball Lottery" dream.

nyrisa -> RE: Precognitive Dreams (7/22/2007 10:02:01 PM)
I have had several dreams that came eerily true. It is a very weird feeling.

charlotte12 -> RE: Precognitive Dreams (7/22/2007 11:15:14 PM)
I have not had those kind of dreams but often when i get deja vu it's not just a feeling that "i've done this before" but it's this weird sense that i have dreamed it. But what do i know? i'm kind of crazy :P

ownedgirlie -> RE: Precognitive Dreams (7/22/2007 11:34:01 PM)
I have them on occasion and typically only share them with those I trust, and my Master. Usually just with him. Sometimes I think I've just had a "whatever" kind of dream and then weeks, months, years later, I find myself in the same setting as my dream, like a particular building or something, which is always weird. I had a dream once of a friends mom (who had died the year before) who came to me to ask me to please tell her daughter to stop feeling so guilty, that she knows she loved her and all is well. I had worked with my friend and had never met her mom nor been to my friend's house. I shrugged the dream off and a month or so later I went to my friend's after work. I saw photos of her mom in the living room - same woman in my dream. I told my friend of the dream. She cried, felt relieved, and eventually let go of her guilt. I have a DVD on lucid dreams which is really interesting and philosophical. It's called "Waking Life" if interested.

Thanks owned, I will have to check that out. These dreams have been incredibly vivid, the kind that wake you right up and you can't even think about laying back down.

ownedgirlie -> RE: Precognitive Dreams (7/22/2007 11:51:59 PM)
Ugh. If they're bad dreams, that sucks. I hope you figure them out. I wonder if a psychic-type could help.

Termyn8or -> RE: Precognitive Dreams (7/23/2007 12:55:02 AM)
I have a bit of a theory on dreams. Even if there is precognition involved, it is not supernatural. It is insight. To explain - during the waking hours your thought process is governed by your conciousness. As Charlie Manson put it "It's as if you are looking through a photo negative". He went on to say that everything you see is filtered through that. I believe he was right. He didn't go far enough though. To expound on that theory, when you sleep, your conscious mind retires, but the facts, the occurrences, the situations are all still there in your head. When released from the restraints of your own personality, the mind can then think more clearly. The only way for it to communicate to your conscious mind is through a dream. I also believe that some telepathic abilities exist, and are often only accessed during sleep. Communication between all minds, but yet undetected by modern science. Not inhibited by the speed of light, nor any barrier, it is on a sub atomic level or something. It is not a radio wave. It is something though, and there is proof abound all over the world. The USSR used to always persue this, but I doubt they got very far. I don't know what the Russians are doing now. But until they can find some people who's education didn't kill their mind, they are not going to get anywhere. BBIAM T

My theory also encompasses that deja vu could be an unremembered dream. If so it would explain alot. The first time I went to jail, I knew right where my cell was, it is like I had already been there. I was a bad boy back then. But it was something. It also seems a few times, upon first meeting someone I sort of already knew their name. And I am terrible at names. Even if I couldn't remember it it seemed as though I should. I think there is something, like a link between all of us, something some tap into at times, others don't. This something is not detectable with current technology, but at one time the electric lightbulb would be considered magic, and the owner burned. I believe one thing for sure, mankind does not know everything there is to know. Based on that I form opinions. When I was young I read a very interesting book, which I would like to find again. It was called simply 'The Occult'. The very first words of this book were the definition of occult, which is 'that which is hidden', nothing more. Electricity was not invented, it was discovered. If it was discovered it existed before we discovered it, which means it was hidden. This book explained it very well, that even if you do see something when you gaze into a crystal ball, it is coming from your own mind. The book did not succeed 100 % in keeping it scientific, but it came close. I wish my sister would find the thing, I am ready to read it again. At any rate, there are things, processes, waves, forms of energy and matter of which we are unaware. I do not believe the maker of all things intended to hide these things. Rather I believe that we have failed to discover them as of yet. So, if we can manage not to destroy ourselves in the next 40 years we might know more about this. Until then our scientists are busy building bombs. Can you imagine what science would be like if there was no money ? Investigate the universe and the deep blue sea instead of figuring out how to make more money. See, in my opinion, we, as the human race in question have already failed. We should know aboiut these phenomena, we should know the sub-atomic mechanics that make it happen. We could have a Star Trek like world if scientists really had the correct direction. People who fund and direct scientific research should be shot. There are better technologies out there and they don't even care. They are too infatuated with the science they got. That's why we don't know about this shit. Really. OK, back to the topic. You could describe your dream. Then specific questions, based on that, need to be asked. Different things mean different things to different people. Funny, I just remembered something. About twenty years ago I had bad knee problems. I basically lived on pizza and beer. That wasn't too long before I changed my diet, significantly. I had a dream. I JUST NOW remembered it. I was standing at the bathroom sink brushing my teeth and they started falling out, they all fell out right there. Soon as I hit them with the brush they seemed to dislodge. But I didn't stop brushing, and soon all of them were out. This may have been somehow my body telling my brain to tell me that I was going down the tubes. Also, those dream books equate a dream of losing one's teeth with death. Did that affect me ? Damifino.In the next few subsequent years I did a bit of research. I got off the carbs. I used to say "That's stuffing, stuffing is for dead turkeys, I am not a dead turkey". So did some profound knowledge get conferred from my thinking subconcious to my concious mind ? You tell me. T

If you do have them, do you tell the people in your dream about them? even if it wasn't a "good" dream? I used to have them. Generally it was doom to whoever was in my dream. I knew my best friend at the time was going to end up in the hospital in ICU a couple days before she even started having pains. I didn't know the outcome but in my dream it was touchy for a while. To my amazement it came to fruition in real life a few days later. I saw a friend die in a fiery crash. A few days later a drunk driver hit him as he drove home. Attended his funeral the next week. Would you want to know if I had a dream about you? Good or bad? Even if it were good, what if we aren't right? If it were bad would you try to change your own destiny? Can we change our destiny? I believe I would think different if every dream had some sort of significance to it. All dreams came true. Yet, you don't know so how can you put someone through that sort of terror?

LuckyAlbatross -> RE: Precognitive Dreams (7/23/2007 7:40:40 AM)
As long as I can remember. I believe it's myself going in and out of timelines while I sleep since they are never really about others. I tend to have the more on "high energy days" like my sisters wedding or big exams. I don't really talk about them because I don't keep a dream journal or anything so I always just forget until it happens and then I remember "Oh yeah, I dreamed this, I know what's coming up now" and it's not like I ever remember things that are really useful like winning lottery numbers or anything that would stop me from making all the stupid mistakes I've made. When it comes to "others" I tend to just get a sense about them. I almost always know when someone's going to come back in my life or something "major" is going to happen to them, but I'd have to focus on it to get more in tune than that. LOL I'm the epitome of a lazy psychic chick.

LOL I'm the epitome of a lazy psychic chick. I can tell when those are going to die who are close to me. Done it the last 6 deaths. Not the day, but the year. I know when our last Christmas together is going to be. Their last birthday on this planet. No idea why, just get a feeling. That's when I tell the kids take a lot of pictures its this person or that persons last holiday with us.

There was an interesting article a few issues ago in Psychology Today which talked about intuition. Apparently, the hardwiring that allows human beings to be intuitive is extremely beneficial for our survival, which is why it was not natural selectioned out. Intuition, according to the article, is a mental network / framework that functions on an associative level, as opposed to a rational level. It spends most or all of it's time establishing connections between this and that in order to try to survive. One way of thinking about this is that your eye contains millions of rods and cones which supply input into the brain. The brain, as a way of keeping itself on focus or on task, filters most of them out on a conscious level. However, this input still gets into the neural network, where it is frequently picked up by the intuitive / associative part of the brain which may or may not make a connection and alert higher consciousness. I personally suspect dreams are a function of the higher function shutting off, however, the brain cannot turn itself off and replays information on a lower level. One of these levels would be the intuitive / associative brain. Perhaps some part of your consciousness picked up a clue which reminded your lower consciousness of something similar you experienced in the past, and wound up letting you know while dreaming that when X and Y are noticed, Z follows. Just me, etc. Sinergy

Usually what I do when this happens to me (as it does happen occasionally), is to call the person or people involved and just check in. Say hi, I was thinking about you, or if you know them well enough you might even ask if everything is okay. The answer might be nothing is wrong, thanks for thinking about me, but at least you have shown that you care. Best of luck! K

The best words of advice I can give you on this one (as one who has such dreams) is research, research, research. Find out what says "truth" to your inner heart and follow that. That is where the power of your dreams on knowledge is.

I have had those sorts of premonitions as well, and I am not going to trash them. On the other hand, I have had those sorts of premonitions where nothing happened. I cannot say definitively one way or the other, sub4hire. Just responding to a post dealing with intuition. Sinergy
