Are you psychic...or have you ever felt you had psychic abilities. ?

I wouldn't say psychic, but it would seem I have the ability to jinx. The fire and ambulance crew have forbidden me to say certain things. I can't even tell them to have a good day.
The other day, a friend and I were trying to remember the name of an old co-worker. Finally remembered his name. Yesterday I saw his name in the obits.
These are just two examples of many. It would seem that I have to watch what I say or ask.
 
Hollydolly you commented on dreams coming true. I've spent a lot of time analyzing my dreams over the years, I love how your brain takes all the things in your life and creates a new puzzle while you sleep.

One thing that for sure happens are life stresses manifesting in dreams. You hear of a cheating spouse, you dream your spouse is cheating, you hear of a death and dream of a death. Even though while awake those triggers may have been nothing but a blip, a nano second, your brain snatches it and brings it back around later.

My point is what happens in dreams may seem random or a premonition but if you really sit and explore most times you can connect the dots to things from your awake hours. At least that's how it works for me.

no mine are just too specific and too often the same dream..about the same people....
 
I reckon we all have abilities but only some people use them. Our sixth sense is our survival but we don't always listen to it. Only those who are open to their spiritual side can access it.
I have dreams and feelings which warn me and I try to be open to that.
 
Another thing is how would I have ever known my father had died. I hadn't seen him for years, I didn't know he was ill.... and one night he appeared in my room while I was asleep. I know this sounds crazy and I really try not to tell people for that very reason.. but in my sleep I was awoken for just a second or 2.. and my fathers' face was right there in the room..not the rest of him , just his face....

I was totally creeped out ..horrified by it.. because my immediate thought was that there seemed to be no escape from him....but then I made enquiries in the next few days and found he'd died...
 
I've mentioned this before...

How come a Psychic will tell you that in a past life you were a Nobleman, a Wealthy Merchant or a Prince. But they never tell you that you were the guy that shoveled the elephant poop at the Circus.

Seriously? I believe people that do have that 6th sense are just more aware of their surroundings and paying better attention to the details of their lives.
 
I can't say I'm psychic or have dreams that tell me of the future, but I do have strange "coincidences" that happen from time to time.

I was watching TV one day while playing a word game on my phone. The very word I entered came up on the TV show. I also heard a song the other day that I used to like and just when I was thinking about it, it came up in a mix that I had downloaded. I can't do anything with these abilities, but sometimes it makes me wonder.
 
I've "talked" about my psychic abilities before. Posts about some things can be found in our Paranormal & Strange Occurrences section. But I'm behind in posting my experiences. I have had several precognitive dreams and "knowings" over the years. A couple of the knowings were that a particular person was going to die soon (usually within two weeks) and I had no knowledge of them being sick. An example: I remember one morning I woke up with this thought...how will Nora Jones react when she finds out her father has died. I had purchased one song by her, but was never into her father Ravi Shankar's music, so did not follow him or news about him at all. Sometime within that two week period, he passed away.

I found out during a metaphysical course that I took in 1988 with my BFF and a friend of hers, that I could do psychometry readings during a guided exercise introducing the technique. My son sometimes teases me, saying my brain is weird. My retort, which is true, is that it's his fault because it became "weirder" after he was born. :LOL: My son, two youngest grandchildren (who are now adults) and my honorary daughter have actually told me they are afraid of me because of my abilities. I thought they were kidding but they assured me they are serious.

that happens to me on a very regular basis...
 
We were in Bronx Park Zoo. My mother wasn't keeping up with us as we ran up & down hills. I was three. I hung back to ask her why she seemed sad. She said she "had a feeling" that we were about to meet someone who would tell her someone died. Yeah, she said stuff like that to a three year old.

Over the next hill we came to benches. Two friends of my parents were sitting there. They told us the man's brother & SIL, whom my parents knew, died in a car accident.

I've never, ever forgotten one detail of this. I can still see it.

My father called my mother a "witch" and said she was a good handicapper at the horse races, based on that.
 
My first psychic prediction was when I was very young-maybe 14 years old.
I told my family that our closest neighbor would get a visit from relatives they had not seen in years but would stop at our bungalow first- where we stayed during summer school vacation.

I gave them the day and time this would happen. But they laughed at me.

A few minutes after the day and time I predicted, they showed up at our bungalow, and then surprised the neighbor's family, who did not expect them at all. My family was startled and thought I had received mail from them, telling me they would arrive on a Sunday at 6 PM, but we had no mail box for the bungalow and my father went to our regular house every day across the river to pick up the mail. And in this bungalow we had no phone.

But there was a spiritual side to this, I had prayed that they would come. They had kids my age and in their last visit, they traveled for over 5 hours on those past visits, and I wanted some playmates and prayed they would return.

The family told my father and the neighbor surprised at the visit, that they all seemed to be compelled to make this trip.

My family had no religious connections at all but I believe this was the Power of Prayer.

I still get odd moments when I know what song will play next on the radio, and when certain people will call me when the phone rings, and that happened way before caller ID, and also when I know a letter is coming from a specific friend I have in Pennsylvania.

I think we all might have psychic abilities. But I believe in Prayer as well because I feel God answers all of my prayers.
Many answers were not what I prayed for but God knows what we need, which is often more important than what we think we want.

My most recent perception was that I feared , this past Fall, a very good friend of mine would become ill. He never had any major illness in the 30 plus years I knew him. I had no evidence for the fear. But the fear I had was concerning.
He has been in and out of the hospital 4 times since October.I had email yesterday that he is finally back home.
 
This does not look like a popular thread but I had a very troubling experience today and I want to know what others think about it.

My morning started out fine like a normal day but in the afternoon I had such intense unhappiness with life in general I would have shot my brains out if I had a gun. I knew this sudden change in feelings was not rational. I tried to make myself do what needed to be done and had some success but I could not do somethings and this was weird. Like I could not understand my feelings and behavior. But fortunately what I could get myself to do lead to discovering my son-in-law is in intense emotional pain because a friend of his was diagnosed with a form of cancer and was rushed to immediate chemotherapy. His emotional state seems to have been what was wrong with me.

This is crazy I know, but after I learned what my son-in-law was experiencing I stopped feeling all that emotional pain. I have had psychic experiences in past and for a while I thought I wanted to develop it, but those experiences were not pleasant so I decided I did not want to have those experiences. Going through what I went through today is unnerving. I don't want to be emotionally hijacked like that. Like I thought of calling the crisis line and saying I was suicidal but I could not explain why I felt like that. What could I say to a counselor other than I suddenly wanted to end my life?

That is crazy. I am so glad it passed with the knowledge of what my son-in-law is experiencing. But something else troubles me.

My son-in-law was not a nice person when he was younger and I didn't want anything to do with him but because of another psychic event with him, I am afraid we are spiritual connected and this might not end with my passing. I have enjoyed the notion that I can keep some people out of my life, but what if this isn't true? What if we get karmically bonded with others and have more than one life to work this out?
 
@hollydolly I don't think I read this thread before. But when you wrote about the bully guy you dreamed about, before I got to it, I wondered if you would have found out he had died. That is very, very strange. Got to wonder.

Me, I don't think I have any psychic abilities. I find dreams weird and I don't like the ones I remember.
 
@Vida May I'm glad that bad feeling passed. What you said especially in the last paragraph is interesting. I've thought when I die, I don't want to see any "family." Bleep that. I want my animals waiting. But who knows. None of us do.

Exactly! I really don't know how that might work if death is not the end. I do not believe we are magically made perfect with no more prejudice or anger or any other troubling emotional experiences and personality. Like if we suddenly became aware of our feelings and thinking being completely differently from how we had always been, would we recognize that perfect person as ourselves? Would we recognize everyone if they were nothing as they were when they were on earth? Hey Mom, you look about 40 years old but your personality has changed so much. šŸ¤Ŗ

We all have some sort of ESP, running in the background,
mine are not as strong as many of you in this forum are,
but I have always thought for a long time now, that if you
think of a friend that you haven't seen or spoken with for
a long time, then suddenly you think of them, that I think
is, they have passed on and are saying cheerio/goodbye.

This happened last weekend when Maisie passed on, I
woke on Saturday morning thinking of her, then for a
long time on Sunday afternoon, later that day I learned
that she had gone at 10:30 AM on Saturday, she hadn't
answered my emails for a while, but always sent verbal
messages via a friend who phoned her.

That is my version of contacts, whether it true in every
case, I don't know.

Mike.
