Precognition

[shaman]

Hi Deva,

It is correct that a first form of precognition is a very strong intuition that appears to be correct. I had such intutuions concerning the death of some people in my family. The next thing above intuition is actually your dreams. As I understand, and following some of your postings, you have been able to have more vivid dreams and to remember them. Pay attention to all your dreams and keep a dream journal in order not to forget them. Dreams can be premonitory, sometimes with symbolism, sometimes directly. You can dream of some people that you never dreamed of before and that might have some important signification. I dreamed of an uncle who lived far away. I did not have any info about him and I never dreamed of him before. It is at that same time that he got ill. He died a little later. In the dream I knew that if I saw him it had a special meaning. I had other dreams more direct. I would suggest to pay attention to all you dreams. I try to sleep 8h, because then I can remember with great details the dreams of the morning. The next step would be to practice meditation (or other techniques of transe, exctasy) to trigger visions, either visions that are unvolontary or visions that are focused on a particular subject that you wish to elucidate. But that's already a much higher level that I haven't been able to control. Anyhow, keep us posted of your dreams.

It could be the OBE's triggering your precognition or like it was for me the older I get, the more they come. I agree with shaman they start just as good intuition and then grow into visions. I dream of the future all the time. From what I have heard more then others from everyone I talk to. They all have never heard of so much deja vu and waking visions happening to one person. Anyways, I think one thing that helps with the growth is also realizing you have the ability too, when I was younger I had catholic parents that told me there was no such thing. When I got older and experiance more and realized hey I had a gift they seem to come more freely.  As for as controling any of it, I have had no luck with any of the precognitions and other abilities. So I think shaman is also right sleep more and meditate would help. I don't sleep enough and I need to clear the mind. I hope that your abilities do strengthen. Good luck in doing so.

OBE are simply tapping into a previously unknown part of the mind.  In doing so it "opens the unclosable door" so to speak.  OBE are the spiritual side of us.  The essence in us all that manifests the unexplainable but real.  In practicing OBE you can easily develop other abilities without trying.  Often after NDE people have discovered psychic abilities.  I know that after I began having lucid dreams (which was a direct result of practicing OBE) I was much more intuitive.  I wouldn't necissarily say I was psychic, because the experiences didn't happen enough to be dependable.  But they did happen enough to be recognizable as beyond the norm.  So basically, as long as you are tapping into the powers of the mind, you may develop paranormal abilities.

Thank you all.

Last night I had another lucid dream.  Normally this would be the highlight of the evening but something more unusual occurred.  I had a dream that was a continuation of the story I had in another dream a few years ago.  Very strange but I'll take it.

What brings premonitions is a higher conscious ness that can be achiebved for example from meditation or OBE as some have suggested. A higher consciousness makes you realised that you are dreaming and brings also more lucid dreams. So we are all on the track it seems. It starts with intuition, continue with dreams, with lucid dreams, with OBE and eventually with full visions of the future (hopeuflly).... soon we'll all be prophets.... []

yeah too bad nobody listens to you when you try to warn them what is to come.

I don't know if it's a direct result from regularly practicing obe induction methods or from taking an active interest in my dreams, but I'm gaining more precognitive ability as a result.

As a few examples, I correctly determined how much a friend was in debt and I was able to determine how much more was needed to successfully bid on a major purchase by intuitively figuring out what the current highest bid was.

So although I don't get as many obes as I would like, I'm gaining ground in other types extrasensory abilities.  []
