Hi!
It's me again. Well...this is what really happened 2 me. Today I have all the time 2 write.
About 10 years ago I was 18, I went 2 a swimming pool with my friends, it was a hot saturday morning.I swimed a lot on that day.
I never ever swimed like that in my intire life. A lot of fun with my fellaz.
On the way 2 home, I told my friends that I was very, very, very tired.
And as soon as I get home I'll sleep in the first good and confortable thing 2 rest, no matter what it is.
And I did it. I opened the door of my living room and the first thing that I saw was the sofa. I ly down and sleep...
I woke up with an action movie gun shots sound on the T.V, there was a lot of noise.
I got up, turned off the T.V, then I saw that the door was opened, and I tought 2 myself "Damn what kind of
person lets the door opened? There's a lot of mosquitos here." I closed the door very hard, very hungry.
Then comes the unbeliveble... as I turn around 2 go back 2 sleep, I see my own body on the sofa resting.
And I sayed; "Wow! Wait I minute, am I dead?" I tought 2 call my father and tell him about it. Them I realize
that if I'm dead how can I do it. I got in panic in few seconds and start 2 cray, but I couldn't fell the tears,
I was feeling colled and very light, I looked 2 myself and I was also like a hollow man, like a ghost.
It's kind hard 2 explain ok. Then at that same moment I sayed; "No! Let me check my body."
As I did it, something, some powerfull force, push me into my body, that was lying in the sofa. That force u can not imagine.
There's nothing on earth like it. I'm teeling u. No kidding. I never felt anything like that in my intire life.
Was a terrible experience.
Getting into my body was like getting alive again, like first born air breathing. At that same moment I woke up, very scared
and start 2 scream. To confirm if it was a dream or not.
I looked at the door and the door was closed. I looked at the T.V and was also off. Then, I turned it on
and for my suprise the same action movie was passing on the T.V and almost in the end.
"Damn!" I sayed. I Had plans 2 tell my family about what just happened. But my family wouldn't belive me.
When I was 5, I started 2 dream about the future, I told them about it and they laugh on me.
Some people told me that what happened 2 me was God's will. Only He can take and give us life. That was a little demostration.
Could be. That's ok 2 me. I'm a beliver. I can accept it. No problem.
Is there anybody out there that had this kind of experience?


Remember that your physical body is just there, doesn't mean you can go outside of it.

Wow, i cant remember how many of these i have had in my lifetime.

Well, you see this is more proof that the brain is a filter, and gets ridd of all metaphysical experiences when you wake up. This is also why we only use 10% of our consciousness.

Perhaps if we remembered in true detail, maybe we can really travel in time?

It happened to me when i was extremely tired, I was out at a party when we walked for miles to get to a lake. We got there, and decided to turn back because it started raining.
I got home, and laid down in bed. I remember focusing on the darkness behind my eyelids, always focusing, awake and alert. It seemed like a long time, when all of a sudden the darkness turned to a white fog, and eventually i realized i was falling out of a cloud!! I was extremely confused because i thought i was trying to get to sleep!
I quickly started to panic, but it didnt work, i was very very calm and awake.
Falling through the sky, i looked down. I was looking at a schoolyard with children playing on the swing sets. Then i realized, wait, i bet i am dreaming! So i closed my eyes and asked myself to fly, and with enough will power i could fly!!
I couldnt believe it, im in a dream, yet i know i am dreaming! How weird can this be????
Then i thought of the possibilities. I literally went everywhere on the planet, learned a ton of information - which i still havent validated to this day - and flew to my house, to eventually see myself sleeping in bed! I, of course went through my walls because i could! However, if for 1 second i thought the wall was solid, it was. I could touch and interact with anything i wanted as long as i KNEW for sure it was solid!

So, i examined myself. I tried many things on myself like moving my body different places. Then, i thought of an idea to test out on my parents - i whispered in their ears!! And, to my suprise, they woke up, wondering what the hell they just heard! I asked them the next day if they heard me whispering and they just stood there shocked.

Really, we should be paying alot more attention to our dreams, we can operate outside of our bodies, physically as well.

Ooh, I get that a lot. Well, y'know, not "a lot", but frequently enough to make notice of it. Anyways, it'd be nothing too Important, and like you and a few other People, it'd just be a small maybe 5 Second Span of what I experienced in my Dreams. Sometimes though in Reality when it happens, I would have this Feeling that it wasn't in my Dream, but from somewhere else?
floydtheater07
This happens to me fairly often. It's bizarre. Once I had a dream about some people I was semi-acquainted with in high school, but I wouldn't call them friends. We weren't that close. Anyway, they were at the house of this one girl who was throwing a party, which was odd, seeing as she wasn't the type to really throw parties. Well, a few days later I find out that she did throw a party and the people I dreamed of were invited. I suppose I could have known about this beforehand and not registered it, but I couldn't remember hearing about it at all.

I usually dream of mundane things which come true, like being at a specific mall with some specific old friends. Once I had a a dream of an ex-girlfriend. I wake up the next morning and chek to see if someone responded to a post I had made on a message board. Someone had, and I came to discover that this someone was also my ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend. This was a worldwide message board and he lived hundreds of miles away, so it was somewhat bizarre.

What worries me about this stuff, is when it happens, I get upset. It makes me think that, if I can dream events which may occur in the future, do I have free-will? That may seem like a ridiculous concern, but this happens and I don't want to believe it when it does.

Dreams that seem to foretell the future are usually our subconscious expressing our true feelings about circumstances in our lives.

You could say that a dream about a specific scenario is really our way of establishing a self-fulfilling prophecy about the manner in which we will most likely deal with or react to said circumstances as they unfold in the future.

rolleyes.gif I have no doubt that some of the dreams fit perfectly into your explanation. But some of my perdictions were of people whom I had not seen in a long time or who lived in another state or both. Now there is no doubt in my mind that you can know someone so well that you can predict what they will say or do given a circumstance. I know I have always been able to do this and it makes my wife mad. But when you see someone having a heart attack in your dream and then be able to predict the day and time they will have it and the circumstances and then tell someone (not them) about it before it happens, well that is more than a subconscious expressing or a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I have responded to a thread like this last year. I have had dreams that came true later on. One in particular was at a family reunion. I dreamt that a cousin was in jail over the use of a gun. This was the last person you would suspect to be in trouble over a gun so I was surprised to find out at the actual family reunion that this indead happened.I would have suspected his brother no problem, he was trouble, but not him. Well his brother got one over him. I also had a dream about some old material of my grandmas who was really into crafts about a particular panel of fabric with a printout of a doll to sew. She had passed away like years before so it was kind of out of the blue. I had never seen this material before. But I told my aunt, her daughter about this dream, asking if grandma had this type of material and she told me she had just looked through some old material of hers and sewed a doll from a pattern like this for her granddaughter. It's little things like that that don't make sense or matter at all. I dreamt that the area around me had gone back to the wild kind f, there was wood and debris al over the roads. Not too long after that we had an epic wind storm that was like a small tornado, two within two days. They had a state of emergancy in some close by areas. So debris all over the roads. Not exactly like my dream but close. I don't know why but it happens. It's funny but when I think a dream will come true, it never does.

Put yourself in a state where you are 30 percent awake and 70 percent asleep and remember the things you see. Once you get a control to that kind of state, increase your state to 50 percent awake and 50 percent asleep and see if you can have visions. Its like a volume control where you increase or decrease your wake asleep state and fine tune your new sense. You will get headache and possibly migraines practicing this. No pain, No gain. Learn how to stop once it becomes intolerable, Its your body saying its time to stop or suffer its effects.

Well, like most of you people here, I too sometimes dream of events or just scenes that come true in the «real life». Few times in my life this turned out to be useful, even life-saving, but most of the time those are only small things that seem unimportant.

I also get deja-vu feeling relatively often, so I believe it’s caused by dreams I had and don’t remember on conscious level.

Then, I practice something very similar to the technique 3rd rock mentioned, but I don’t get any headaches at all. It’s very interesting to try this, and I’ve found out that it gives me better insight than wide-awake thinking. I won't say that I see future in such state, no, but I understand things better and I get certain hard-to-describe feeling about people, events, connections between them and alike, that is almost (almost!) always confirmed later.

I can only remember having two dreams that came true, to a certain extent. Except I did not see anything of any importance, its what I heard. I'm a major NBA fan. In 2003, during the playoffs, I had a dream that the Los Angeles Lakers would lose in 11 games. In the dream I heard the commentator saying "...And the Lakers lose in 11 games!". I didn't see who they were up against but I remember seeing Shaquille O'Neal rather hazily and a blurry crowd. The playoffs of 2003 saw the Lakers lose to the San Antonio Spurs but it was in 12 games (beat the Minnesota Timberwolves in 6 games and lost to the Spurs in 6 games). The second dream is also related to the NBA. About a week ago I heard in my dream that Sacramento Kings player Ron Artest was traded to Houston. I heard it as if it were on the news "Ron Artest traded to Houston" is what it was. I think it was yesterday or Tuesday...Ron Artest was indeed traded from Sacramento to the Houston Rockets. I know no one will believe me or perhaps it was coincidence or what my mind thought was a logical (or maybe I had heard scenarios at the time and my mind expanded on them).

If it is indeed a dream coming true, like what you guys have said and experienced, maybe it has to do with what you're focusing on.

Perhaps, but these things happen at random, and are often about random events. So unless we all have very strong and very unpredictable imaginations, I doubt that these pre-cog dreams occur due to some focus of our conscious minds. The mind has abilities that the body does not. Telepaths and telekinetics are proof of this. Precognition is only one facet of the supernatural yet rare abilities that some people seem to have.

I believe that humans were designed to be magnificent creatures. What other known species could create a machine as complex as the computer you're staring at? What other species is able to see things before they happen? I refuse to believe that we are just another primate. We have...a very specific design.

No...these abilities cannot be controlled as easily as moving your arm up and down, that's true. But then again, before you developed the muscles in your arm, you could not lift that either. We just need time to learn about and understand our full potential. Whether it takes a few more years or a few more generations, we will unveil the true limits of the human mind.

this happens to me too from time to time but its usually something really minor and insignificant.

Okay, well, I have a dream, and it's about normal life, so you usally just forget about those. Well, I usally have a dream about somthing completely normal right before I wake up. I have nothing of the dream I can recall when i wake up, except a brief glimpse, and it sinks further and further into the back of my mind, and I can't remember it. So, this all happens in a matter of seconds. Well, AFTER I have the normal dream, the REAL thing happens in every detail! ohmy.gif I've just realized that I've seen the future! It's been happening since as long as I can remember. Anyone else have this happen to them?

yes.
All my dreams are either of the future in some way or... something else. ^-^

If precognitive dreams are real, I should be filthy rich by now.

Three years ago I had a dream that told me I would win 'the lottery'. After that I started having series of dreams that TOLD me I would win the lottery at a certain time period. They were all wrong. I once had a dream that sang me a song about me winning a 40-million dollar California Super Lotto Plus. Everytime the jackpot hits 40 millions, which is very rare, I had a really high hope. And I was always left with broken dreams.

In January 2007, I had a dream and saw two men. I asked them for 'the numbers'. They gave me six numbers and indicated which one the mega number is. Guess what, I just gave up playing with those numbers.

In Dec 2007, I saw another set of numbers. Another six numbers. And in April 2008 I saw an amount of money in my dream. It was '465 millions'.

After I missed a 40 millions jackpot in May or June this year, I stopped believing in precognitive dreams and guess what, I stopped remembering 99% of dreams.

Looks like you confused “precognitive” with “wishful”.
If I wish for something and dream about it, it still doesn’t mean my wish will come true. It only means I’m preoccupied with my wish.

Dreams can give us correct information about future events, I cannot explain how or why, but it happens to me from time to time. Many people here noticed this info is often about seemingly unimportant events, again, I have no idea why we get such glimpses of future. Truth be told, I never heard anyone got winning lotto numbers in dream. I heard about big and small precognitions, but looks like it just doesn't work that way with gambling?

There are indeed a few people who actually saw the winning numbers in their dreams. Sometimes it took years before he/she won the jackpot. In other cases it happened practically the next day.

I don't believe that their cases can be applied to others easily.

hahaha ya I concur, though I do believe it can be done. It just has to be at the right time, right place. For my pysch teacher last year I had given him two rows of numbers in which I thought would be the correct ones. He went to play the lottery...I never watch. Few days later he told me that he had won some money, because he had gotten four correctly on one of the lines I had done. On the second line he said those would have been the other two numbers if he played them, it's just that on the first line the other two numbers were off by one...which sucked...in the twenty range...

Point is, if you think about it too much you aren't going to do well. What I do is occassionally of guard, sit down with a piece of paper and write down the first numbers that come to my mind, I never think about it. If I even once think about why I picked that number, game is over and I have to wait again till my mind is blank. I really need to play though, maybe I'll wait till next month or something. Than I will document my results.

I would pick my lotto numbers from fortune cookies. Why often i get the exact same numbers so why not play them.

Anyway one often assumes the mind is seperate from the body this perception is wrong. The mind is the body. every ounce of data collected is processed by this precious machine.

Precognitive dreams use this collected data and calculate the most propable course of events. This habit is not special it is the very device used to judge when to migrate and eat. Ever have a sudden urge to do something. Its all Mathematics. The more data collected and the more possibilities explored the more accurate the precognitive function.

However one can also assume that the brain simply calculates all possibilities and like tv we only get to see only one channel.

I'm noticing a pattern here with these dreams.
A: They're about normal life
B: They're often forgotten when the person wakes up, or they're at least hazy
C: They're remembered after the 'predicted' event has taken place

Okay. In the normal probability of chance, everyone is bound to predict some events before they happen. This is because the majority of our dreams relate to mundane activities. There's a psychological term for it but it's slipped my mind at the moment dontgetit.gif
So, when an event happens, isn't it possible that you're reinterpreting the dream to fit your belief that it was a premonition? There are many journal articles and books on false memories and they happen a lot easier than you might think.
Also, there a theory about deja vu, that it' sort of a 'faulty' neural connection so that the same thought gets transmitted twice - there's a split second difference of course.
Hey, I'm just throwing it out there, I'm not trying to be mean, just skeptical.

Well, I suppose this topic marks the end of my (loooong time of) lurking and my first registered post.

When I was in 9th grade, I began dating this wonderful guy named Chris. About a week after we started dating, 9/11 happened, and everyone was freaked out. I had a feeling that Chris wasn't going to be around for long - but then again, who didn't have that sort of feeling who lived in America after that event? I'm sure people in other countries have felt the same way during hardships.

A couple nights afterwards, on 9/13, I had a dream about a funeral. It was incredibly vivid, except for the fact that I couldn't see who was sitting on the front row, and the coffin was closed. I didn't recognize the man giving the eulogy, but I could see his face. I knew most of the people at the funeral, and I knew there was a boy sitting next to me holding me hand, who I didn't know.

When I woke up the next morning I could still remember everything perfectly. I quickly wrote everything down in my dream journal, and made sure to write down physical characteristics of those I didn't know.

Three years later, on 9/10/2004, Chris was killed in a horrible car accident. On the 13th I attended his funeral with a good friend I had made earlier that year. He held my hand while I cried while sitting in a pew, surrounded by people who I mostly knew. I realized that it was all too similar, and when I got home I dug out the dream journal from 2001 - everyone was sitting in the exact same spot. The coffin looked the same. It was Chris's family in the front row that I couldn't see.

I don't understand how anyone can tell me that psychic dreams don't exist. This was too real. How do you explain it?
ambelamba

Oh, trust me. I had repeating dreams that told me I will reconcile with the woman I was in love with and marry her in a specific time period. The voice in my dream told me so many times.

Guess what, the dream turned out to be false. I almost got insane. Then, I told myself "**** the dreams. I am not gonna believe or remember any of my dream."

Since then, I stopped remembering any of my dreams.

I thought you stopped remembering your dreams because you didn't win the lottery?

In anycase, I know what the OP is talking about and from reading this thread I can tell that a few people have the same experience. I do as well. It can't be explained away by science and at the same time cannot be explained by science as we know it. I have a degree in psych and am very grounded in science but these type of dreams just can't be explained away. I tried to ignore them for many years, but have had enough experiences over the past few years that I am left with no other alternative than to believe that the generally accepted view of time and conscious reality is wrong in some fundamental way.

Actually I've had whole bunch of false prediction dreams beside lottery issue. I am not sure if those dreams were really driven by wishful thinking.

But something definitely beside lottery issue made me skeptical about precognitive dreams. I am not gonna get into the detail but those dreams happened during the most difficult and painful period of my life. I had a lot of hope. When those dreams turned out to be false, I felt into deep despair. I guess some people have those dreams, but that was not the case for me at all.

hello everyone,
I have seen dreams that came true month or few later for round 6 years now. In the dreams the view is through my eyes like if I was awake and they are usually from 5 to 20seconds long and once I saw a dream where I remember a voice saying a thing and I couldn't recognize the voice and then later when this happened I was the one saying that exact same thing and I remember that I couldn't really stop my self from doing it though I catched the deja-vu feeling before it. I wasn't really sure if I really saw these dreams as they happened in the real life before today this one really unexpected thing that I saw in my dream only 2 days before today came true. So now im pretty much confident that this is really happening and im wondering if anyone knows if there is any literature on this subject. I couldn't find anything in my own language when I visited the library. I thank you for you answer.

I have many, but.. I just take them as a regular dream and forget them until I get Deja-voù.

i've had a dream about a girl (keep reading this doesn't get explicit thumbsup.gif )who i went to school with for 7 years, but when i had the dream about here, i hadn't seen her for roughly 2 years. anyway in the dream, i saw her riding this small car, and i went up to her and talked and she told me to come over... i woke up a little while after that, and when i woke up it was like i missed her.. it was a strange feeling, i can't describe it. I got bored so i decided to rent movies, when i went to the video store a few hours later, wouldn't you no it, she was there...


any similar experiences?


hey enigma,
yeah i also had a similarm dream. i had a dream the other week about a mate from school who i hadn't seen in years and that day i bumped into and she was wearing the same clothes as she wore in my dream. as soon as i bumped into i remembered the dream and reliased and it freaked me out abit.

They once did a survey about this very subject, and roughly 90% of people polled claimed to have had a dream which showed them some sort of vision of the future. While this is most certainly a metaphysical occurrence, it is completely common. It is something which happens to virtually everyone, and does not make you special. However, the phenomena it's self seems to be very real, and warrants further study.

i also get deja-vu regularly allow i don't recall having a dream about that situation and i sometimes have it multiple times, like if i do remember dreaming i sometimes have a dream about me having deja-vou then it happens in real life

I get this a lot. I remember my most vivid one.

There was no picture, just sound. The phone was ringing. My mom answered it, and said "Oh hi Basil!" (a friend of my parents) I heard the entire one sided conversation, and then she hung up. Then I woke up because the phone was ringing. My mom answered it, and said "Oh hi Basil!" Everything was exactly the same as my dream and I sort of laid there, frozen. There was no picture in my dream, because I had my eyes closed in real life.

I found this completely disturbing because it happened so quickly after I dreamt it. My dreams don't usually happen until months or even weeks after I dream it.

Okay, well, I have a dream, and it's about normal life, so you usally just forget about those. Well, I usally have a dream about somthing completely normal right before I wake up. I have nothing of the dream I can recall when i wake up, except a brief glimpse, and it sinks further and further into the back of my mind, and I can't remember it. So, this all happens in a matter of seconds. Well, AFTER I have the normal dream, the REAL thing happens in every detail! ohmy.gif I've just realized that I've seen the future! It's been happening since as long as I can remember. Anyone else have this happen to them?





ive had the same thing happen to me. One time i dreamt of taking this test and a couple days later i took a test that was an exact replica of my dream. Another time i had a dream that this woman was going to be assulted in the woods and burned alive...4 days later it happened. What i do is keep track of my dreams if i can. If anyone has any advise on how to control this let me know!

It's easier to control or rather build upon once you can do remote viewing at anytime. I had these 'nightmares' which I later found out to be real horrible events happening in the world, insomnia kicked into high gear. My mind saw other ways to find things when I wouldn't dream. So, remote view started. From my pre-cog I had solid information, but sometimes not enough. Remote viewing would be handy to locate the target and what it was doing at that given moment...put things in perspective. In fact I rarely dream anymore, I know people say you dream all the time...but it's not the same and if I do it's bs making up in my head..and it's rarely pre-cog...because my mind just does so much more remote view now...but all of them are really tied together.

For finding victims, sometimes it is best to 'think' like them, meaning don't think about them, but their surroundings what they are looking at so you can get to them. And no you will not be able to save everyone, as you know.

I believe this is my first post though I registered long time ago
anyways I just found this thread and I felt that I have to reply because it happened to me too

5 or 6 years ago when I was still in high school, one day I dreamed that I got hit by a car. When i woke up, I told my mom about it and I wrote it down in my computer. It was either a Sunday or Saturday, and I had to go to the library because like all the books I borrowed were due on that day. My mom was kinda worried because she believes in these kind of stuff. She was like don't go out today the dream was a bad sign so just stay home and pay the late fine for those books the next time I go to the library.
But I didn't listen to her, I thought I just had to be extra cautious. And I did. I walked at the sidewalk all the time and constantly checking my surrounding. Then at this T-shaped intersection, a car suddenly turned right without any signal and ALMOST HIT me. It stopped probably just 7 or 8 inches from my body. The thing is the driver looked really weird like she was only half conscious, and the sudden stop woke her up. After she apologized repeated and she said something like it's not like herself today and she doesn't know why.

it's almost like there's some mysterious powerful force trying to make the whole thing happen

To accomplish great things we must first dream, then visualize, then plan... believe... act!

I wonder if this is what you are seeing?

A time travel?

Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable.

i hate reality!

The most anxious man in a prison is the governor.

That is you and me in our dreams!

Not to have control over the senses is like sailing in a rudderless ship, bound to break to pieces on coming in contact with the very first rock.

Hi GITS:

Yes, I know what you are talking about- I have been doing dream work for years, which includes setting my dream intent before sleep, keeping a dream journal and trying to make sense of what happens in my sleep. I also have lucid dreams, where I am aware that I am in a dream and can change the course of it. For me, dreams are a portal to receiving information that I often cannot or will not see in my waking life. I too have have had many dreams about things that do happen in my waking life. It's sort of like a deja vu experience, wouldn't you say? laugh.gif

What you are describing sounds like precognitive dreams. I might suggest that you keep a dream journal by your bed. Set your dream intent to remember as much as you can about your dreams and then write down what you recall. At first you will probably get dream snippets, but with practice you will remember more. It's really enlightening to really hear and feel what our dreams are trying to tell us.

Love and Light,
Susan

Wow! That's amazing! I've had probably about 100 dreams that i've written down, that crazilly happen either the next week or, a couple days later.
The first one that i started to write down was when i was 10 years old. I had a dream that i was at school, (before school), and playing tackle football. In the dream, i vividly saw who it was that tackled me, and where i was on the field, and the exact catch i had made before being tackled. In this dream, I was seeing everything in "Third person", so i saw myself being tackled, and everything around me.

Well, not even 2 days later, i go to school, and sure enough, every little thing that happened in my dream, happened in real life! The positioning of the people when i was tackled, and the way i caught the ball. The way the ball was thrown, etc. Absolutely everything about this dream came true! After this dream happened, i started keeping track of vivid dreams that i have.

Because of course, everyone has dreams, they just don't remember most of them. Well, when i have "vivid" dreams, i keep a log of them. Ever since i started to do this, i have been able to recall my dreams soo much better. Instead of having to write them down now, i can basically file them in my brain, and remember most of them detail to detail. (But of course, i still write down most of them, to make sure my memory is still working correctly) .

Either way, very very interesting topic. I hope to learn more about why this happens. And how this happens.

Also, (almost double posted) How might i set my "dream intent" ?
Yes, i believe they are precognitive dreams also.

Before you go to sleep at night, you can call on your dream guide to guide you through the dream and show you what you need to know. If you don't have a dream guide, then you simply meditate for awhile with the premise of your dreams showing you what you need to know. Keep a dream journal by your bed too because you want to write down what you recall, no matter how insignificant it might seem.

Okay, sounds good. I'll meditate, and see if i can get in contact with my guide.
Thanks!

Same thing happens to me, my grandmother said she had it too but everyone in my family thought she was crazy until I claimed to start having them. Only once did I have one that was significant. I had a dream about 6 seconds long in which I entered a hospital room and saw a figure in bed, then I looked up to see the light above her. After looking up I woke up. About a week later my grandma had a heart attack and I relived the dream second for second and only then did I realize it was my grandmother in the bed from that dream.'

One explanation I have heard is that when it happens to you its because your mind for whatever reason slows at certain times. Think of it as a computer overloaded with data. To the point where you are taking in information from the world around you, storing it in your memory, but your conscious has not caught up yet. Thus you think you have experienced it/dreamt it before but in reality its just your mind playing catch up.

Now part of me buys that but part doesn't. Mainly for the simple fact that I've had such a wide variety of these "future telling" dreams. If I have had such a wide variety, some ranging from complex to simple, how is my brain getting overloaded? If my brain was getting overloaded then all my premonitions should be somewhat similar as they all should be triggering an overload because of a certain situation.

I don't care if people don't believe me, but I know its true. Basically I'd like to know if anyone has been able to control this phenomenon or prove it. I've always thought of recording the dreams but the problem is they are SO SHORT. The longest I had ever has was about 8 seconds. That one was very basic, nothing special but it was immense because I realized I was in the process of having one. Normally it happens, two to five seconds and I don't realize until its over. The fact that some could be long means potentially I could actively predict the future to some degree.

Imagine if there was a way to control it? Imagine the magnitude of being able to hold one for a minute...

Well, lately, for about 2 weeks or so, i've been meditating, and trying to auto suggest, in my mind, that I will remember my dreams more vividly, and also be more aware of the fact that it's a dream.

So far, it hasn't worked all to greatly, except for the detail part. I have yet to be able to have a lucid dream on command (as in, setting it up in my head before i fall asleep). I did notice though, i am having more dreams then before. I dream every night now, and also can remember more vividly the details. Of course, over time, the details become more obsure, so i write them down, as soon as i wake up. I have had numerous dreams that have 'predicted' what will happen in the future (days or weeks ahead), I would love to be able to control it. And, seeing as it's happened so many times to me, i 'do' believe it's possible for someone to be precognitive. I just wish i knew how to control it. I've only once had a precognitive dream that i conciously took control over. The next week, the dream happened detail for detail, untill the point where (in the dream) i took concious control. After (in real life) it got to the point that i was making the decisions (in my dream), everything was different. The parts i had changed in my dream, due to being a lucid dream, didn't happen. But the parts that did happen, were the parts that happened before i noticed it was a dream i was having.

Figured i'd throw the last part in there to possibly intrigue you guys.
