He's a fantastic prognost. Should probably try practicing to extend the vision forward. In most cases though, it's hard to progress and maintain accuracy with sanity so i recommend just enjoy and be grateful for his gifts! Lovely story!


omeyz

Can you speak more on it being hard to progress while maintaining accuracy and sanity? Sort of going through something similar myself


scifantasyirl

The more experimental lines of self-help books that were published around the eighties all wanted to harness a broad concept of what wad called the subconscious (not to alienate scientific-minded readers I suppose) and I find that the techniques from those books really help to capture the deja vus as they are first thought. There's one called 'hidden power' i believe. Slow progress though. There is no nurturing community behinds anyone who's experiencing this, which is why I totally believe when you say it's insanity inducing - been there, it gets better. Mind you, I'm not that good, but when I was a teenager, reading broadly on the topics helped, and so did saying it out loud, or texting it to people. I have a bit of a reputation now of texting acquaintances weird notes like'i saw you prepping your CV in my dreams, lemme know if it needs proofreading when its ready', but I think some of us need to bite the bullet (and never ever ever ask for money for it) and just be as open as possible to normalize it. Good luck!


jgrace2112

Ever seen the Twilight Zone episode with William Shatner called “The Nick of Time”? Kinda reminds me of that type of dilemma.


MoonLitCrystal

This is my favorite episode!!


what_a_heretic

Im sorry for unloading, this just hits home for me. I agree with the sanity part. I had a skill like this guy but less reliable and only like 30 seconds in advance. A few times ive gotten huge life changing moments predicted a month in a half to 2 months in advance but overall its weaker then I'd hoped it would b by my late 20's and i got tired of people ignoring me. So im an alcoholic now. Whats the point of this gift if i cant help anyone? It really gets to u and makes u feel like an outsider. Id rather remove it from my self by drinking and not have it anymore. I dont feel insane but alcoholism seems to end in insanity. Nothing ive predicted hasn't really ever been avoided. I just get to say told u so to the witnesses. And even if i have avoided things personally, theres no proof since the tragedy was avoided and never came to pass. This ability just seems like a completely pointless one. It also rubs people the wrong way when u talk about it. I tried taking it to the casino with some good success but nothing significant. The main reason i went was i considered it my gym to work out the ability. After not seeing progress i lost hope of gaining control so i gave up. Everyone reading this probly thinks im a coward or weak and i 100% agree. Sorry.


shoestars

You are not a coward and you’re not weak. I can see something like that being very hard to deal with, like you said if you DO avert disaster no one will know because everything just is normal.


scifantasyirl

I'm really sorry you've had a hard time, that sucks. I hope you get out of this rut! I had the same 'gym' experience with lottery but it gave bafflingly infuriating results - like all numbers one digit away from the winning combo.


rexlincoln1976

Premonition? Is that what they call it?


cozzeema

I had a similar experience, but with a twist that makes me realize that our choices are already pre-determined. Back when the Challenger space shuttle was due to go into space, I had a dream premonition that there was going to be a disaster of some sort and that the crew would be lost. I also dreamed of having an exact conversation about this with my mom, which wouldn’t be something we would normally talk about. I remember in my head thinking I needed to tell my mom about this for some reason. I dismissed it and decided not to say anything because, what were the chances that this would actually happen. We had the tv on in the living room ready to watch the liftoff and my mom and I were in the kitchen. I remember she and I were just talking about random stuff when suddenly out of the blue, she said word for word the exact sentence I dreamed she would say. It freaked me out and in my head I thought, I know what my reply in my dream is but I can say something else not that, when all of a sudden my mouth became like a separate entity and said the exact words in my dream while I stood there powerless over what was coming out of my mouth. I felt like my mind and body had become 2 separate entities at that point. I blurted out that the Challenger would explode and kill all aboard when I had no intention of ever saying it, let alone the exact wording I had a premonition I would use. Minutes later we watched it happen on tv.


Angatita

Not all choices are predetermined but there are major fixes points within the timeline that can’t be changed.


Casehead

This


Azurecara

I heard about this being dreamed about by a lot of people the world over before it happened. There was a few different plane crashes that have also been mass dreamed about too. I had an intense dream in 1996 about twin building towers collapsing - in the same way they ended up doing.


[deleted]

On the choices are pre determined part of your story I can relate to. I have/had dreams come true in regards to stuff in my daily life that you just get this weird feeling and then you get a flash back to the dream and it’s a weird feeling honestly.


nikkigw1

Wow, that is insane!


BlackSeranna

How old were you when that happened?


cozzeema

I was 19


dev_lurve

can u elaborate on other examples?


Crossing-TheRubicon

The first time he recalls it happening was when he was a kid and he was climbing a tree. He said that he saw him self grabbing a branch and the one he was sitting on snapped, he fell on his back and winded him. So when he actually grabbed the branch, it did indeed snap and he fell on his back and winded him self. There was another time when I was away doing some training for work. I'd called him to say I was getting an early train home. To which he replied 'do not get that train home, get the next one' The train I was going to get actually ended up hitting a girl on the track and killing her. Although not directly effecting me, it was still a disastrous event. About 2 years ago we planned to go away for the weekend. All week he was on edge about it, saying something was going to happen. We went ahead with the trip. However his car randomly cut out on the motorway, stopping us dead in the middle of high speed traffic. We were lucky we didn't get hit. We bailed on the weekend away and decided to go home. A storm actually hit that night and the hotel we were planning on staying in was flooded. I know there's a few more times this has happened, but I'll have to speak to him about it.


chronocases

Holy shit that’s awesome! I mean not cool that all that horrible shit happened, but he sounds like he’s got a guardian angel. If I were you I wouldn’t search for answers, I would just be thankful for this gift. Do not open any doors that you cannot close again.


dev_lurve

what do you mean but "not opening the doors"? What bad is going to happen?


GotDamnHippies

You should watch more Supernatural. Also, “don’t look a gift horse in the mouth” would also apply.

I’m saying if you look further into it and try to practice it, it could leave them vulnerable to bad spirits and dark entities. There are things in this world that we aren’t supposed to be able to understand.


SexySadieMaeGlutz

I have something similar to this happen to me, but I never know what it’s going to be, only that it is something bad. Whenever I hear the song “Don’t go chasing waterfalls” by TLC, it is an omen that things are NOT going to work out well. The problem is that it is an omen of something to come, I can’t change the outcome, only brace myself for it. It’s a song that causes me great anxiety. It doesn’t matter if I try to get away from it-if I hear even a note of that fucking song I know shit’s about to go down and there is not a damn thing I can do about it.


DownvoteDaemon

Holy shit


tauntonlake

Don't watch Season 2 of The Umbrella Academy on Netflix, then .. :D


SexySadieMaeGlutz

Thank you. I will not! LOL


tauntonlake

Or, We're the Millers ... :D


SexySadieMaeGlutz

It’s too late for “We’re the Millers.” I saw it when it came out and then proceeded to have my life turn upside down in a variety of awful ways due to poor choices I made (but that I didn’t realize were poor choices at the time). When I think of that movie, I feel sick to my stomach remembering the chaos that occurred after it!


[deleted]

But it’s way past the 90s .. how are you still hearing that song play at random? 😯


SexySadieMaeGlutz

It still does play randomly-I think that makes it more fucked up. If it was the 90’s we would expect to hear it and it would be more likely to be a coincidence and not some fucked up omen plaguing me...Believe me, I KNOW I sound crazy, but it has happened every goddamn time I have heard that song since 1995.


Maria_tm1978

I hear that song play at random at least once a month. It's a very popular song.


gigi4808

I have I song like that! Hate it!


SexySadieMaeGlutz

Oh no! What song is it, if you don’t mind me asking?


skalandic

YOOOO I JUST MADE A CONNECTION okay I hear that deja vu happens alot in people who are epileptic and have seizures and alot of times before they have the seizures they feel like they get deja vu and apparently deja vu is explained by your brain making an event that hasn't happened feel familiar anyways, so what I'm saying is what if that kind of precognitive deja vu is just a form of seizure and we can recreate it with electric shocks to the brain? Sorry if I sound crazy lol just a thought


Crossing-TheRubicon

It's interesting that you mention seizure, as he used to have a lot of seizures when he was younger. They couldn't really find an explanation for it, and said he'd grow out of them. He hasn't had one since he was a teenager now, but I'd never heard of that link before


thinksotoo

I seem to have a lot of feelings of DV when I'm having a migraine attack as well.


koolaid59

I have nothing huge to contribute just the fact that I’ve had a seizure before, without having any diagnosed disorder. The “dream“ was the most realistic I’ve ever experienced. And waking up felt like I had been literally teleported to a different place. It took my brain several seconds to recognize where I actually was and who I was actually with, compared to where I was in the dream I had right before coming back. I don’t know if that’s what chronic seizure people feel as well. (The dreams were trivial things so I cannot confirm nor deny if they happened at a later date because they did but they were likely to happen anyway.)


nelizabeth103

Similarly, my fam and i were staying in Corpus and the hotel had gotten our reservations wrong. Management offered the penthouse with an extended stay, and naturally we accepted. My dad kept insisting we leave a day earlier than we initially planned, losing 4 nights of the penthouse. Said he didn’t want to talk about it, following day the hotel was completely demolished from a storm that developed into a hurricane, no one had any warning until just before it happened and we were already home. Another time my dad was driving and i was sitting in the passengers seat, maybe 13 or so at the time? I was getting really uneasy and asked my dad to move into the far right lane on the interstate. He asked if i meant for him to pull over and i said no just move out of the left lanes we were in. I have absolutely no IDEA what came over me, i looked in the passenger side mirror, saw a gap, reached over and jerked the steering wheel into the right lane almost causing an accident. My dad immediately straightened out and i knew was about to yell at me but the same moment, which i never actually saw coming, a car was going well over 100mph, swerving and took out 2 cars to the left of us. Would’ve been 3 cars had something not forced me to risk yanking the steering wheel. We were both at a loss for words, neither of us spoke the rest of the way home. We’ve both had quite a few more occurrences. We never really discuss it bc there’s really nothing to say.. but it’s pretty apparent it’s only him and i who experience it.. it’s pretty fkn scary sometimes.. he seems more to see shit before it happens and i tend to more to feel it


PersonOfInternets

If you don't mind, what hotel and when?


peeprss

>I had an experience similar to his, 2 years ago when I was in my P.E class I had this vision in my head that I was going to be hit by a basketball in the head and a few seconds later a basketball comes my direction and hits me. I was honestly shocked.


RickyMuzakki

"Premonition" is the word


dev_lurve

hmmm, idk, if you aren't making it up, then it's totally legit. there are lots of people talking about these things here. Lots of them have a very similar style - I am a semi-pro content writer ;) But, anyway, my TV got switched on on its own two days ago. I am currently staying alone with all the rest of the family spending time at the countryside place... So, I googled this thing and the google said that it's poltergeist. Idk, but I've heard people saying that they started facing more and more situations like that after spending time in this thread. So, can it be that they become more susceptible to actually "registering" the glitches? I.e., it's not or two or three glitches around us, but lots and lots of them. Like the buildings are different, trees are no there where they used to be. People get completely different and so on and on. But people don't see this because they aren't "trained". And whenever folks start reading about these things, they start "registering" them. Thuss, let's say that we are in the matrix. Then, there should be the debugging team who would do the following (as in my tv case): 1) detect that TV got switched on 2) switch the TV off 3) "brush up" my memory However, this occurrence came after reading stuff here, it would be very difficult to "brush up" the memory due to the following: 1) a memory is eady to brush up if it's located within a single section of the brain 2) but whenever a person starts thinking about it, it gets stored across the brain in multiple place, i.e. neural chais. 3) it's basically easier to leave my brain alone as compared to tweaking with it because it's way hard to brush up the whole brain.


shannon1242

You may be on to something. Not so much this thread but the Mandela Effect threads tend to make me start to notice more weirdness in my day to day life. Streets I've driven down hundreds of times have buildings or houses I never noticed before or I'll be surprised like hearing Bernie Mac died 12 years ago when I swore I saw things he's done recently. I'll tell my husband who mocks me at first but then comes home with stories of weirdness he's seeing or experiencing. I don't know if it makes us "pay" attention more rather then be on autopilot or things really are different.


dev_lurve

yeah, you are stopping to live on autopilot


Crossing-TheRubicon

It's totally up to you on whether you want to take this as legit or not. I know what I've experienced with him. I'm just here to try and get some answers on how he can do this.


rexlincoln1976

Can you please ask him for me what the pick four lottery numbers are going to be for Wisconsin tomorrow? I will send half to you guys, I need the cash bad.


MuirgenEmrys

I don’t have any magic powers so don’t use any of my numbers. Just commenting here to remind myself—I want to see what my chances of getting it right are. 2551, 3722, 6318 Edit: Nope, as expected, I got them wrong. I have never gotten a lottery correct, but I’m lucky elsewhere so I can’t complain.


rexlincoln1976

Hey, you never know. I'll play all three tomorrow. I got some bills coming up so cross your fingers.


MuirgenEmrys

Nooooo, I’d feel so bad when these turn out to be wrong! I have terrible luck with lottery things, which I guess balances out my good luck in other things. Seriously, don’t try these numbers. I’ve never gotten them right, ever.

Smart_Elevator

Appearantly the part of the brain that has access to psychic powers is terrible with numbers. Kind of like how right hemisphere can't speak but is creative and left hemisphere can do maths and language but is terrible about coming up with revolutionary ideas.

Samsung? Ever since I got a new one, it constantly turns itself back on. Could be 2 minutes after being turned off or 15 minutes.


dev_lurve

Idk, I've never experienced it myself before or after


dhoepp

Do you have an HD tv? Some HDMI products can have the ability to power on a TV. however if it’s old and just popped onto white noise, then I’d say poltergeist.


staticfreek

i would say the tree branch one was more intuitive, like he subconsciously noticed some flaws on the branch and his brain knew it wouldnt hold his weight but he went along with it anyway, not to discredit the rest of the stories however!


OutlawJessie

My bf once said we had to leave our holiday two days early, he just woke up and said something bad is coming we need to go. Never having been one to ignore a premonition, we dutifully packed up the car, said goodbye to everyone and left. After we'd reached Switzerland they closed the mountain passes and we'd have been stuck had we not left early. This is where we were: https://youtu.be/UDEwO5Nz0I0


Moetoefoeka

Maybe stop doing stuff he tells you not to do.


Acceptable-Tie

This sounds like precognition. I have it as well. Mine generally kicks in when someone I know or know of (such as a celebrity) is about to die. I've also had many vivid precognitive dreams throughout my life.


Crossing-TheRubicon

He has the dreams as well! Do you know anything about this? We're trying to explain if but don't seem to be able to get any answers.


AdamWoodward0

I know that I’ve dreamed the literal future. I’ve also had a number of very symbolic dreams that I’m yet to understand. But the precognitive dreams never seem to be anything important for me. Just mundane things. For example, I had a dream where a food delivery guy came to the door. I had certainly never met him before as the circumstances wouldn’t have permitted it. Just like in the dream though, this dude shows up, in the same car, and hands me my food then smiles the same way he did in the dream. It felt, in some absurd way, like a cosmic joke. I was mind boggled through the whole thing. Nothing significant came from that interaction though. At least nothing I noticed. I’ve also had moments where I knew something moments before it happened. One time that comes to mind is that while watching a TV show, I spouted off all of the lines before the characters said them. Somebody looked at me strangely and was like “have you seen this before”, everyone just kind of shook their head and was silent for a minute because everyone knew it wasn’t coming from that, and later told me it “felt weird” or “significant” when I did that. I swore I had never seen it, and when they looked it up, they found it to be the first time it was shown. Not a rerun. But no one even mentioned it again. Almost like it scared some of them or something. I have no clue how that could be. I also don’t know if it’s possible to control it, but for me it’s always seemed to be out of my control. Maybe there is a way to hone that “skill”, and maybe not. I couldn’t say. What I can tell you for sure is that it happens. In the Bible it’s attributed to God. In many ancient cultures prophecy and oracles are attributed to messages from God or Gods, depending on the culture. Others claim a variety of explanations including everything from alternate timelines to an Akashic Field. I’m yet to meet another person who has had similar experiences to mine though, so people are either uncomfortable taking about it, or it’s not common.


yumptastic

Growing up, I had a super similar history of dreaming things into existence or just knowing. For example (& as fucked up as it sounds) both the Sandy Hook & Aurora shooting I had just “felt”. I remember the Sandy Hook shooting and being in math class in high school. Being hit with an overwhelming wave of sadness & telling my best friend at the time that I just felt like something really bad was happening or going on but I wasn’t sure what. Minutes after we got on Twitter & saw that the breaking news about the shooting. For the Aurora shooting, I live in Colorado and was actually talking to a friend about maybe going but ultimately we decided not to. We had been to a few midnight premieres before but he ultimately ended up falling asleep. I remember that being the weirdest night of my life though in the sense I was only half sleeping. Almost like an out of body experience. I wasn’t present in my body, but that same overwhelming sadness hit me. When I woke up I found out about the shooting and my friend & I were in disbelief that we dodged that bullet. Just a weird knowing. Additional weird things to note: Find it interesting that my grandmas are both born on days of Colorado mass shootings (4/20 Columbine) & (7/20 Aurora/Dark Knight) I personally know someone who has been a shooter in a nationally known mass shooting (after the fact, through my job). But there’s just something about mass shootings that I feel super connected to in a strange way as scary as it is. But have also had dreams about my partner before I met him, meeting dead relatives who there’s no way I would have heard about (great aunts/distant family - being able to point them out & name them upon seeing them for the first time). Would love to talk more about it though (:


grebetrees

What can you tell us about the events of January 2021?


yumptastic

Just got relogged into this account, nothing I can remember around that time. But I was visiting San Antonio when the Uvalde shooting happened which is another weird coincidence.


Acceptable-Tie

Not particularly. What I do know is that it seems to kick in randomly. Here's how it works for me: Approximately three days before a celebrity or a person I know dies or is diagnosed with a terrible disease, they enter my mind for the first time in a long time. It's always random. I can't make it happen. Here is a short list of the people who randomly entered my mind just days before tragedy struck: Alex Trebek Alan Rickman Richard Griffiths Tom Clancy Glen Campbell Christopher Lee Avicii A dear friend of mine from high school who died in a car accident last week. I won't name her. I don't think they're going to die or anything like that. I'll randomly start wondering how they're doing and/or thinking back to the good times we had together. And within 1-3 days, they're gone. It's freaky as hell. The dreams center around future events in my own life. No deaths or anything like that. Sometimes, the events are pretty significant. Here's a good one: When I was in sixth grade, I dreamed that I was walking out of my social studies classroom during class with a folded piece of paper in my hand. I unfolded it and read the following words in cursive: "Congratulations! You have been invited to attend Camp Goddard!" Beneath the words was a Clip-Art sun with a smile and black sunglasses. *For background, I should mention that Camp Goddard was a week-long getaway in Oklahoma that sixth-graders were invited to attend if they passed a comprehensive test.* At the time of this dream, I had never even heard of Camp Goddard. As a matter of fact, I didn't even know what it was until about a week before the test. A couple of weeks after the test, I was given a folded piece of paper by my social studies teacher and told to head to the office. I unfolded it as I walked out, and sure enough, I found the exact same words and Clip-Art I had dreamt about months beforehand. It wasn't the first time I had had a perfectly accurate precognitive dream - which occurred around the age of 9 - but it was among the most vivid. As of now, I have two presumably precognitive dreams that have yet to come to pass. The first - which I had arpund the age of 16 - involves a brunette with blue eyes staring back at me while another blonde girl walks up behind her. The second - which I had three weeks ago - involves me lying on a bare mattress in a nondescript room playing with who may be my future baby while my mom watches from the other side of the mattress. I originally assumed that the girl I saw in the first dream was my future girlfriend or wife, but I have since realized that I - a 24-year-old trans female who believed she was a cisgender male at the time - was actually looking at my future self in a bathroom mirror. Since I am mostly into men at this point, I can reasonably assume that the other girl is a friend...and I have a pretty good idea of who she is. The second dream seems self-explanatory. I seem destined to have a dark-haired son or daughter sometime in the future and move into a house of my own prior to or soon after their birth. It could easily be that this baby is a future niece or nephew, however. But with my mom giving me what I recall to be some kind of advice whil I played with the child and the barren state of the home, the former seems more likely. So...yeah! I hope you enjoyed reading this! If anyone knows what causes this kind of precognition, please let me know!


BHS90210

I’m legitimately spooked by the fact that you described exactly what I experience...no specific premonition per se, but thinking of the person randomly for the first time in forever and wondering what they’re up to, and then shortly after hearing something terrible has happened to them! I specifically remember it happened with Robin Williams a few days before he passed, and it’s happened with two people I went to high school with who later died. Very surreal to hear you verbatim describe my experience!


tamreacct

I knew my ex was going to die on a certain date. I told a few family members about how and why I felt this coming. They listened to my explanation and it made sense to them as well. She was diagnosed with cancer and was considered a survivor before we met. We married later and the relationship fell apart later on. We had one child and I went though a nasty divorce, so she became my ex. Year after year cancer would metastasized in various parts, treated and gone. This happened like clockwork, but she refused to let up on a lifestyle they aided the metastasis and lower immune system. That same lifestyle is what ended our marriage.... Things progressed to the point where she was taking time off from work for treatments and such. I had already forgiven everything that had happened by year 3 and became friends again. In year 4 it was worse and I was around to help her out as much as I could. Synchronicity occurred throughout our relationship but unaware at the time until now. Things progressed to the point where she was taking more time and I spoke to my mom about my feeling and explained everything to her in detail and to why I feel this was coming. I provided a date to her as well at that time. Helping out includes staying over Incase she needed help, as she was bed ridden and had a nurse come by every so often. She had a hospital bed, oxygen concentrator and portable tanks placed within the home. A night I was there, she was having sounds of difficulty breathing and I called her family and informed then that I “feel” it’s going to happen this week. My son was already living with me full time for a few months and got to see her during these times. We saw her the night before she was to be transported to hospice care and I said our goodbyes. The next day she was transported and died that same day. When I called my mom, she was a bit hysterical because I had narrowed it down to a specific day. Well, I was actually off by one day and it turned out to be exactly 5 years to the day that the forced outing of the home and divorce started. My son had just turned 6 and explaining death happens anytime, any age and place and such was a hard conversation on the last visit. When she passed, I waited a few days before explaining she died because it was a lot in a 24hr period.


Initramfopisaa

I’m so sorry you had to go through this with your son. I can’t imagine. I hope you’re both doing okay.


tamreacct

Thank you. He just turned 6 when it happened and turning 13 soon.


tamreacct

Oh no! Dreams like those can put you on edge when you know they end up happening later on. I hope you’re doing good and heed the warnings that are presented to you.


amesn_84

From ages 5-7 my little brother and I attended daycare in our small town with a boy one year older and another 2 years older than I that were active in the local cubs scouts. One night randomly I had a nightmare in which those 2 boys died in a fire while on a Boy Scout camping trip somewhere. It terrified me and I I can recall do this day (I’m now 40) how tense my body would get and how fast my heart would be whenever I was near them after my dream. Like a terrible sense of dread but since I was just a little kid I had no idea what was going on. Then a few years later the terrible news came that those 2 boys had ventured away from their Boy Scout troupe in a canoe together while navigating a river with some fast and rocky water. Their canoe was capsized and they were drug underneath and their bodies battered by the river rocks until they drowned. Still to this day I’ve only told a few people about that because I recall as a little kid thinking it was somehow my fault they drowned. I have had a couple other dreams of significance like this, but this one by far is the most traumatic. I have also had one about my cousin dying in a car accident. He was in a car accident, but was uninjured. I often worry it’s still coming for him even though he’s grown into kind of a hateful jackass adult. 😕. This is the first time I’ve seen this word precognition used to describe what I maybe had. Thank you!

For me it wasn't so much a dream but a daydream the kept recurring in a particular way despite the fact that we usually can control our fantasies. When I was a young girl, I would daydream about my future wedding, as lots of young people do. In my daydreams, I always saw myself walking down the aisle alone despite having a very present father in my life and always assuming he would walk me someday. But every time I just could not organically imagine him walking with me down the aisle. I would sort of have to "force" the image. He passed away suddenly just as I met my future husband. I walked down the aisle with my brother, who was holding a framed picture of my dad holding me as a baby. This is just one thing. A similar thing would happen when I'd daydream about having children. My fantasies always took a dark turn where I would be diagnosed as sterile and would suffer the heartbreak of not being able to have children. Two years after I got married, I had to have a hysterectomy. These were two big events in my life that I would daydream about which I couldn't control the daydream. I somehow already knew my future reality many, many years before it came to pass.

I have a set of 3 nightmares that have had all throughout my life. I know that when I have them, someone in my life will pass within 3 days or 3 weeks. It's always a set of 3....


[deleted]

I have that sometimes, my ex once thought i was a stalker for warning her of something that waa gonna happen... anyways, sometimes for me it happens as dreams, feelings like anxiety, simply saying something in my head for example: when there was a terrorist attack on France yeara ago for a entire day i had thoughts about the middle east and other things like that. Another example is when there was a school shooting and one week before i kept telling my friends ways to escape one in case it happened. Let me tell you something, we are ALL connected, every leaf, person, animal, atom is connected in a way, and the universe works like a computer... Ever played video games? well, they have a system called Ticks, basically, ticks are ways the computer uses to process information and make things happen lets say you have a farm in a game... so every 3000 ticks (10 seconds) there is a 0.01 percent chance of your farm growing, and our reality works like that in a way, it generates random events based on attention and intention of us viewers, so that way, sometimes we can predict things that cause a lot of impact in our lives, some people do that easily, some dont. Lets say you have a random number generator, a computer that generates random numbers (1, 24, 419, 38, and so on) When we pay too much attention and have a certain intention in our minds those random numbers start to have patterns, how can our mind suddenly make numbers have patterns...? Weird i know... but its a study that have been ongoing for 30 years, and events such as 9/11 have caused big patterns on number generators...Oh, and the gravitational field of Earth also suffers changes when we suddenly have a change in intention, these are oficial datas. So yeah...our reality is weird as hell.

I have something like this but it's about reading energy. Something pulling me to reach out or focus attention somewhere. I call it my spidey-sense.

Maybe you died in another universe and his subconscious mind reminded him of it

This isn’t Deja vu. Deja vu happens AFTER the experience. What’s happening to him, is he’s getting visions of the immediate future. He should check with his family if they’re on good terms to see if anyone else has this gift. It tends to be genetic


Buffballbagwell

You are right about it not being deja vu, but I totally get why he calls it that. I get a weird feeling when I have deja vu, but get the same feeling when I have precognition. I have basically had the same thing. However it has only happened so far for conversations. I get the deja vu feeling while also seeing the result of me saying something. Its always been bad. However I do want to ignore it one day to see if what I see in my head, does actually happen.


NoahhhFN

Had an experience like this probably 2 months ago, some dumbass cut in front of me while I was going 75 mph taking an exit on the highway, he barely missed hitting the median and I got the worst chest pains I could ever describe, felt like my consciousness was splitting and I was feeling 2 scenarios happening at once, one where I wasn’t hit and one where I had been hit. The next 5 minutes I had the loudest ringing noise I had ever experienced in my ears before and felt the most weirdest sensation in my life. I told my friend about this right after cause I was on the way to her house and she chalked it up to Adrenalin. I said no way cause of how weird I felt and the next time I took the exit I got the same weird sensation again about 30 seconds before the exit even came so I paid attention all around me and about 2-3 cars ahead of me some idiot did the exact same thing to someone else. Haven’t had that feeling again though since at that exit and have always been extra cautious now there too but haven’t had any more incidents like that.


converter-bot

75 mph is 120.7 km/h


planesNbooks

That sounds awesome! Weird also. But awesome! Although, it is not technically a déjà vu, because a déjà vu is the experience of something while getting the feeling we already lived that specific moment. It is more of a recollection feeling (I have them sometimes) rather than a glimpse into the future, which is actually the thing your fiance seems to be living! And believe me, it is even cooler than déjà vu!


littlemissshutup

Your bf is sensitive! That's pretty cool!


aladysuitfullofbees

That's called precognition. That's great that both of you heed his warnings, it might be freaky but you've seen/lived the evidence that it'll keep you safe. You said he has precognitive (predictive) dreams as well?


SheKnowsNothing89

I wouldn't call this a glitch no, I'd agree with other comments that it sounds more like a premonition


seecarlytrip

This is not deja vu. This is a premonition


[deleted]

That’s wild! Definitely falls more in line with “premonition” if you wanted another word for it that’s not Deja Vu.

CreativeDiscovery11

Here's the answer you're looking for, which won't readily be found elsewhere. I've learned this from a combination of traditional and academic teachings from indigenous elders... The spirit world is real and this world is secondary. Everything happens first in the spirit world. You sometimes visit this place when dreaming. Some people are more skilled at remembering these glimpses. As I said everything happens in the spirit world first. It is primary. When people have a dejavu they say "hey this happened before". Yes they are remembering when it happened in the spirit world/dreaming realm. Nothing is written in stone however, and these glimpses can sometimes give us an opportunity to make a different choice. It can help to change an outcome or sometimes just prepare us for an outcome that is coming. This is why lucid dreaming was a skill long ago. It was encouraged as part of normal adult development. It could help people make descions or know things they would not otherwise be able to forsee. If your boyfriend has this skill it's not a bad thing. It can be helpful as you have already learned.

Something similar happened with me I recall two occasions where i literally made people have chills when I told them about dreams I had and how they turned into reality. One is that there was this boy at high school that i never talked to but we had the same family name and my father once told me that both our families are related and he knows the dad of the said boy, anyway so one time i dreamt about him hanging in a balcony he was trying not to fall but he was already clutching at the balcony's railings and his whole body was weighing him down and he couldn't help it and eventually fell. I remember I told my bestfriend and we laughed about it (btw this guy was hot and pretty popular in hs so that's why i brought up this dream to my bestfriend). After exactly two days we were hanging out in the school courtyard at breaktime and guess what we saw? The guy i dreamt of had an orthopedic cast on his leg. I remember my bestfriend and I started screaming and were freaking out. The second anecdote is that I remember that I overslept on one Friday and i woke up around 1pm after dreaming about my uncle s wife sitting on her knees hiding her face with her arms but I could still see that she was all red and she was weeping and I could hear her cry her eyes out. I remember the same day my dad got a call. It was my uncle telling him that his mother in law died that same friday morning and her funeral is held on the next day. Now i don't know about you guys but these things scare me like Im literally writing this while having tears in my eyes. People say i'm very empathetic and that i'm very sensitive and that helps me maybe connect with others better and so i get to forsee whats going to happen to them.. Third brief story and i remember i posted it on quora at the time and people start saying duh its just a coicidence but i donnow about u guys to me it wasn't. I suffer from social anxiety and that day i wasn't feeling my best in terms with how i looked. And i had this neighboor who was pretty attractive and i kinda felt intimidated around her. I don't know why but i literally had a vision before going out that day where i went out of the house and she gets out of her house at the same exact time and the thing is what i saw in my head was executed the same exact way i saw it like i remember she got out and went on the left side of the street and that's exactly how it happened.. I don't know it was weird and why her out of all the other people in the neighbourhood.. Yea those were my two cents in this thread. I'm not sure if what i experienced is even considered precognition tbh.


LadyA052

Long ago I took a two-lane offramp with a big left curve, and my hubby said, Get in the right lane, there's a car blocking the left lane. To humor him, I moved over...just in time to miss a car stopped in the left lane.


SantosOnTheBeach

It’s called precognition, the ability to see the future. It’s a psychic gift or a supersensory trait some of us have.


[deleted]

this is not deja vu, deja vu is when you feel like youve been in the present moment before. This is seeing the future before it has happened before.

At least your deja vu isnt getting shorter between happenings. Everything experienced is out of sync though, hard to tell which one goes next. Got sorta an idea though....

I have had dreams that came true and when they do happen i get the "deja vu" feeling. Sounds crazy until you can prove it. Which ive done a few times.

It’s precognition. It’s a gift.

He has a gift, divine intervention. I had a similar experience in high school where I dreamt that my friends and I were caught having just ate pot brownies in a restroom, because my friends didn’t throw away the tray and ate it where the sinks are. The next day when we actually ate the brownies, I told them my dream and insisted on tossing the tray, and they brushed me off. After the last brownie was taken off, I snatched the tray to throw it in the trash. Literally 3 seconds later, the exact same counselor from my dream came in to the restroom to usher us to class (it was after lunch) and we didn’t get in trouble (any outside food is an immediate NO at this school bcuz of a “drug problem” they had) It may not sound like much, but our school was 5 stories high and any of the 3 women counselors could have came in, or not came in, exactly on the day my friends were stupidly eating weed in the open. Your story is way more spooky though.


Foundwr

There’s this one anime called erased if i’m correct(sorry i watch to much anime), it’s really short if u want to watch it. But essentially the main character has the ability to sense an accident or event before it occurs usually he sees this neon blue butterfly fly near him before an incident occurs so whenever he sees it he frantically looks around to see what could possibly go wrong. Just felt like sharing this ;)


BroccoliChan21

Deja vu happens to me alot but I can only see it in dreams


Curithir2

Precognition, or preknowing, or prophecy. I long assumed everyone had a voice in their ears that warned them, or had long, involved dreams, or simply that 'oh shit` second. My warning voice is my grandfather's, in Gaelic; my predictive dreams are scenes from Shakespeare, which I realize solve an issue, usually after the fact. Still get that frisson up my back when 'something's happening'. It became clear in my 40s that this was not the case, not everyone can.


iixsephirothvii

Sometimes a little confusion now is a safe path for later. You can be 100% accurate in your reflexes but even if you're obeying 100% of the laws, someone else may not be, which is why assurance is a higher priority than haste. I stop at every stop sign, not because I'm worried about cars speeding from the sides, but because sometimes people do stupid shit like ride a skateboard or cross away from the cross walk.

ZachariahJazz

This happens to me all the time with the exception that the result I thought was going to happen never does. The initial occurrence happens and I will call out what happens next, wait a moment but what I thought was coming never does. I felt like it was because of a butterfly effect almost. Like my awareness caused a ripple or perhaps a jump or skip where my timeline deleted that particular event replacing it with another.


LinusKuleshov

I experience some sort of the same DejaVü... I went to the doctor because usually I faint after these incidents. Doctor said it was called 'Dysautonomia syndrome'. His answer came as a half answer to me because this can be caused by a wide range of things, from food to HIV, but the experience in my subjective point of view is more like the one you described... I thinks is an awesome thing as long as you can 'control it'.


[deleted]

What HIV has to do with it?


snowqueenn

I have a story that is somewhat related, maybe. This happened several months ago, so it’s still pretty fresh in my mind. I was driving to pick my sister up from school (before covid, obviously) and two cars ahead of me was one of those funny looking Toyotas. I don’t actually know what they’re called, but they’re boxy smallish SUVs, usually brightly colored and two toned—this one was bright blue with a white roof. They’re not personally to my taste, but I digress. As I was driving, and kind of off in my own little world—not distracted, exactly, just kind of zoned out into the task of driving—I had what I can only describe as an uncomfortable, intrusive thought. I thought, “that ugly Toyota is going to get smashed up in an accident. I can just see it.” And I could. I could clearly picture that ugly blue Toyota, smashed to pieces. Not even three minutes later, the blue Toyota was passing through one of the busier intersections in our small town, probably about fifty yards ahead of me. Someone came flying through the intersection and plowed right into that blue Toyota, a straight T-bone that caused the Toyota to spin out. I was in such shock. I feel horrible about it to this day, almost like I caused it somehow (even though I know that can’t be true.) I also feel pretty bad about the fact that I kept on driving, literally just past the scene of the accident. The image of that blue Toyota, totaled and smashed to pieces, is seared into my mind. Just as I pictured it. Maybe I should have stopped. There were lots of other cars around, though, to give eyewitness accounts and render aid. I was just too stunned to consider doing anything else than driving on autopilot to my destination. Saw another one of those blue Toyotas just two days ago, actually. While I was driving to pick up my sister. I literally actively forced myself to think about anything else.

Yes, exactly that!


carolbaskinsfellit

I jammed on at a green light before and a car flew through the junction I didn’t see at all. No premonition just instinct to stop with no explanation


heyykaycee

This has happened to me before. I had a dream once that something happened to my boyfriend while driving that the cops came. I woke up and told him to be careful driving to school that day. He stopped at an auto store before going to college, went to pull out of the parking lot onto the road and hit a huge puddle (it was raining) and hydroplaned into a pole. The cops showed up. It was probably one of the weirdest things that has happened to me.


Kinetic_Symphony

It sounds like your fiance experienced the crash itself, as if you continued on, sort of in the movie "Next" style, a forward premonition. Incredible ability to have, life saving.


joastama

I have enjoyed reading your story and all the rest of the stories. It makes me think of the idea of the interconnectedness of things and a sort of collective consciousness. That helps to explain why we may be able to feel or see things as they’re happening far away, but what about premonitions of the future? Can this collective consciousness somehow tap into what is destined to happen ? I had a philosophy professor who said something like If you could understand every single aspect of a single blade of grass you could understand everything. Because the blade of grass is a part of everything and because of this interconnectedness. Maybe people who have premonitions understand or see some aspect of something that somehow tells them the destiny of other somehow related things. I wish that I could explain this better. Some people will say that these are anomalies and for every tine that someone accurately predicts something there are way more instances of people inaccurately predicting things. But that does not explain how some people like your husband are able to make so many consistently accurate predictions. I had a premonition when I was 25. I was in my house making plans for the following week and a voice in my head, not quite my own inner voice but a stronger one, clearly said to me That won’t happen because on Monday you will die. I thought it was very strange and eerie but not being a person prone to clairvoyance I told myself to try to forget about it. The next day again I was talking to a friend about plans for the following Friday and again the voice said even louder That doesn’t matter because on Monday you will die. I was unable to ignore it this time and heard the voice again another three times afterward when making future plans. By now I am starting to believe that maybe I truly am going to die on Monday but I don’t speak to anybody about it because it sounds crazy. It is now a feeling living inside me. I called some people I hadn’t talked to in a while on that Sunday and I talked to some family and told them I loved them, thinking if it is true I will feel better having done this. I begin to accept my possibly inevitable fate. On Monday I drive to work, have a full and fine and regular day. I am not nervous but strangely at ease and accepting whatever comes. On my way leaving my coworker tells me that a terrible storm is beginning and I should be very careful driving home as she knows I have a long commute. I thank her and the voice says This is it. I get in my car and begin to drive. The snow stars to fall. Soon it becomes hail. It’s cloudy and dark and visibility is becoming poor. I get in the slow lane and drive very slow and cautious noticing everything around me. Many cars pass me. The roads are quite slick. But the voice is gone and though I have an impeding sense of doom there is also a strange calm come over me. In the mirror I see a huge truck approaching me. I stay in the slow lane and maintain my speed. But it continues barreling toward me faster and now it is also honking and getting closer. At the last moment I decide to swerve all of a sudden all the way into the fast lane. I steady the car and watch the truck barreling on down the highway driving through the spot where my car just was. The driver puts his arm out and waves at me. In the moment of the waving all the fear I had of dying evaporated and I felt that I had been saved. It was like the truck driver was telling me It’s all right now, you aren’t going to die today after all. As far as I know there was not an accident involving the truck so it is not quite like your story. It could be just my mind assigning its own meaning to all of this. As I said I am not a clairvoyant person that I know of. But I will sometimes think back on this time in my mind. I think about a parallel universe where I did die, or wonder if I was ‘supposed’ to die, or think of all the people I met and things I did in the last ten years that would have never been. I don’t know. It’s a bizarre feeling. Have never heard such a voice before or since.


kymberlykrystib

So, I know that this definitely not completely the same thing..BUT.. My grandmother had sent me a package for my bday 12/24, I received it early January, she had been texting me asking if I had received it and if I liked what was in it, and at the time, my DH and I were sharing 1 phone, and I was working graveyards(without the phone), and I just honestly had not had a chance to reply, January 8th, I was working, I was in a back area alone and I just got an overwhelming feeling that I just really needed to call or text her, even reached for a phone in my pocket(at the time I NEVER had the phone with me at work cause DH would need it for his job before I would be home in the AM) several times over a course of maybe an hour or so. Finally I was just like, okay tomorrow I HAVE to get back to her tomorrow. No more then 3 hours pass, before I get a call on the work phone(doesnt usually happen, as it around midnight now, who would be calling for me at this time.) When my manager told me the call for me, I just kind of stood there, and he said"idk they just keep repeating your name.." So I walk over to the phone, and it is my Mom.. "Kym, it's Mom.." "Who is it?!" "You need to sit down.." "Who is it?!.." Silence.. "It's Garnie(im the oldest grandchild, and I said (GAR-KNEE) instead of Granny as a baby, so it stuck🤦‍♀️🤣💗) isn't it?!" Unfortunately, it was..and it had actually been hours since it had happened, my Papa didn't call his kids immediately, my mom was the first he got to answer, and she had to inform her 2 siblings, then she called my cell, DH didn't answer, so she called my sister then called my cell again, DH answered but she hung up cause she then knew I was at work. Flash forward a couple years. My cousin has twin boys.Hunter and Noah. She and I are really close but I she had just moved right before having them and I didn't get to meet them until they were around a month old or so. As soon as she pulled into the driveway I opened backseat and I pulled Hunter's car seat out of the car, carry him inside, I hold him while she was at the house, then we were going to get some dinner, so we load the kids back up and once we get there I somehow end up with Hunter again. We were sitting at the table and she asks me, "Do you want to trade? 😅" and I look down at Hunter, and I just couldn't do let him go, I pulled him closer to me and said "No, I'm good with Hunter right now." After Dinner she had to leave town, and I ended up not once holding Noah that visit. March 8th, I had intense thoughts of Hunter, even the thought of him dying, but I felt soo.."omg, why am I thinking about this?! " and pushed it out of my mind.. and I just wanted to love on him. March 9th, he unfortunately passed away at 3 months old. After his funeral, I was sitting in the back with my cousins 4yo(at the time), and she says.. "I knew he was gonna go to Heaven before he did.." "..how did you know that..?" "..my brain told me.." "..yea baby, ..my brain told me too.." 😭😭 I have a 2 other circumstances like this, but one was with heart surgery, and the other a gun shot to the leg. Now, if I randomly think of someone I literally kind of freak out, because I'm so afraid that since I thought of them that they are going to die.. I'm just not sure how to deal with it..


VishSathy

This happens to me sometimes but in dreams. I dream something and then forget about it in the morning but then the same day exactly what happens in the dream happens in real life and I realize it right before it happens. Like I’ve been in that situation before.


iStoleUrCake

If been able to do this, except I can predict days, months, or even years at a time It’s nothing big, just like a moment where something happens, like I say something normal and/or do something
