Does anyone have retrocognition or know how to practice it??????
Selendrile
nope
Curiosity
Do you have a definition of it, PPAN?
psychicpowersarenice
Well, I know what it is. It's like precognition, only in the past. You can sense things from the past.
ROGER
Like past life regression
psychicpowersarenice
Never thought of it like that before....maybe recalling past lives could be it, but I don't think I belive in pats lives. I was thinking more along the lines of being in a room and just knowing something bad happened there, without knowing any information about the room, or getting a vision of something from the past.
Insight
What if past lives don't exist?
So basically, you want the powers that hollywood psychics display on TV? Or maybe you aspire to be a pet psychic?

No, I don't believe people can make fire with their minds. Control fire, perhaps. Cause it to start? Not without supernatural help.
psychicpowersarenice
Since when do hollywood psychics display retrocognition on tv?
Insight
Oh, I'm sorry, I was under the impression that you had lived long enough to withness this phenomena, if it can so be called. But I guess not watching TV is good for you. After all, TV gives you an unhealthy perception of reality. But it seems you have managed to gain one anyways.
psychicpowersarenice
I do watch tv, I've just never seen shows where psychics relive the past or watever.
Insight
Too bad for you. If you weren't living in a fantasy world, you'd see right through their fraudulent scams.
psychicpowersarenice
At least I'm not a mean skeptic with absolutely NO insight whatsoever.
Insight
Oh I have plenty of insight. That's why I named myself that. But I'm not going to spoutn off my knowledge to a 13 year old who should be studying her math book instead of thinking she has psychic powers because she reads too many comic books.

be nice Insight.

and PPAN (weheh i start yet another nickname) i normally apply precog to anything past present or future its just easier original.gif
Insight
How can one every test to see if what they "FEEL" happened in the past was an actual event? Because without being able to test, you can never be sure you have this ability, or more importantly, if it can even be one.

A round 1980 my wife and I went to a camping grounds near a resort. After walking around all morning my wife took a nap in the tent.
When she woke she told me she had a very bad dream about being kidnaped by a tall modern indian and that he tied her to a tree and killed her. She was very up set so we broke camp and decided to sleep in town. On the way out the park ranger asked if there way a problem. My wife told of her dream and the ranger looked shocked. apparently a young girl had been kill and found at that sight , tied to the very tree. My wife described the man in her dream and was told a young indian boy was a suspect, be there was never an arrest. The case never was solved to my knowledge.
Now I don't know what this was, or what you would call it, but strange things do sometimes happen. Oh, And we never went back there either.

Oh, don't tempt me to start calling her bedpan...

And Insight, could you get off your high-horse, please? How mature were you at 13? How mature is it now at 22 to pick on a 13-year-old?

We are all the keepers of our youth. If we do not guide them in dicipline and justice, we will be accountable for their folleys.
gufzoo
Again with the high-horse. Couldn't you just let a 13-year-old be a 13-year-old, and let her find her own way? That's what life's all about. At least in my opinion. For whatever that is worth.

Anyway, isn't this how to next generation improves? Have you heard the saying:"Do as I say, not as I do."?
gufzoo
Yes, it's a very nice saying. But people grow and become their own person by making their own mistakes and having their own experiences. And who's to say she's wrong, anyway?

Roger, sorry I over-looked your story before. I must say, "Wow", though. Was this a one-time event, or do things like this happen to her all the time?

I suppose that's just another word for psychometry -- reading events or emotions from a "charged" object.

Sometimes if something truly dreadful happens it can create an imprint, like Pachecho Pass in California. An imprint happens when there are emotions gathered in a specific place. I'm not completely sure what happened at Pachecho Pass, but I think a great number of Native Americans were slaughtered there. There have been reports of people suddenly feeling panicky and despairing, and some people have even had visions of the event.

Ah yes, the "charged" objects. Often instances of extreme emotion or intense activity seem to almost leave behind a thin film of their previous existnace. The spirit of death will definately inhabit an area where many many people died needlessly. Some people may be able to sense that. Some may be able to feel an intense fear that permiates the area in other cases as well. It's very important to respect this feeling, and not seek to manipulate it or force it to happen, otherwise you'll just end up getting the wrong impressions about what really happened there. I find that usually the sense of psychometry is emotional, rather than mental. You can sometimes feel the emotion of a place, for sure. But trying to see in your mind what exactly happened there is like dreaming: It can seem very real, and may even bear relavence to reality once and awhile, but is still just a dream.

Remember, the human subconcious is so powerful it can construct an entire world out of nothing when we are asleep. And when we are awake too. This is called "imagination".

*sighs* insight honestly im with Guffy this time. theres a poster up in the business studies room saying learn from the mistakes of others but that can apply in different circumstance. i think that you should let PPAN find her own way. let her lead this aspect of HER life.

wehehehe Guffy dont you dare tongue.gif tongue.gif
