Weird things that happened like dreams that came true etc.

The Denouncer

The other day I dreamt of getting some ceramic Robins for my fathers grave (which I am planning to do in real life). Now, the shop keeper in my dream came out with Robins, but they were attached to big golf balls! I decided to buy them anyway, I could hide the golf ball part in the ground at the grave, leaving the Robin on top.
Then I woke up and told my wife.
The next day I visited my wifes fathers grave (he died 2 months before my dad and is buried quite close to him).
There was a golf ball in the ground on top of it.
Neither her nor her mam knew who put it there. It definitely wasn't there the last time I saw the grave. Strange.

I also have dreamt of a plane crash a few years ago, it was terrifying. I was on the plane and heard the screams and felt the anguish. I woke up and told my wife. I switched on the radio - first new item was a plane had crashed in Turkey killing all on board.

A week after Maddie McCann went missing I dreamt of a young girls body near a bush in a desolate place, thrown like a rag doll. I'm pretty sure its her.

Anyway anyone else have weird experiences or dreams like this?

Maddie's dead?! :eek:

You must be the oracle to know that one... :rolleyes:

Yeah I've had dreams that have randomly came true before but none of the good ones.

Theres a lot of underground speculation as to the extent of human precognition.

I remember it was a few years ago I had a dream back in the Leaving Cert about receiving a phonecall from a familiar voice who just told me someone i knew had died.

In my first year of college I got a 3am call that my stepmom had died, from her brother.

though in that situation it may have just been an extreme case of shock or deja vu that caused me to think back at everything that had happened in the last year or so: from my PoV then it would seem that as a result of thinking about I seeded a false memory about the dream. I still cant say for sure because I recall having the dream the day after (while in LC)

No I just had a dream a week after she died, and believe she is dead yes. But I may be proved wrong, I'm not saying I am the seer. Just interested in these phenomena.

I once had a dream that I ate my pillow and when I woke up my giant marshmallow was gone...

In order for there to be any truth behind the possibilty of precognition, the daily events of our lives would have to be pre determined i.e. we all have a destiny and nothing can change that

Which is cóck.

Mr. CooL ICE

Back in the LC, I used to always pack my bag before I went to bed, to maximise my sleep-in time in the morning. One night, I had a dream that I was in my psychotic German teachers' class, and she was yelling at me because I didn't have my homework copy with me. Sure enough, I woke up, checked my bag, and it wasn't there (it was in my desk)


That was just my subsconscious working, but strange nonetheless

you arent really accounting for quantum mechanics then.

Dejavu is completely differently altogether. That's when you experience a moment and feel you've already experienced it before... It's most likely down to information being processed directly into your long term memory straight away instead of going into short term first.

I dreamt my cat died the night before she actually died. The weird thing was I was in Edinburgh, my cat was in Cork, and I hadn't seen her for 3 months. I had no idea she was even sick.

Really? Is that the accepteed explanations for it? any idea why it happens at such obscure times?

I had an experience in the mid-nineties where I was feeling this Deja-Vu. At one stage I was in a cafe and described what was going to happen for the next 2 or 3 minutes to people I was with, and it unfolded they said I paid them to do it. But I didn't, I saw it before it happened and felt very strange at the time, like hallucinatory. But I wasn't on drugs and never have been.

I read an article last year on different theories.

There's also another theory that you observe something subconsciously without giving it your full attention, this can happen in a matter of milliseconds. Then when you do turn your full attention on it, it then feels oddly familiar to you.

Overheal

i do that a lot with conversations: im never paying a lot of attention but then ill make a comment or ask a question and itll turn out someone else has just got done sputtering it.

One time I had this dream that I woke up and later that day my dog died.

Spooky.

That's a theory alright, but it doesn't make it fact for everything. Like a lot of things, it can explain the vast majority as cases but there are still a sizeable amount that cann't be explained. It certainly doesn't explain my own deja-vu experiences in the past but its got nothing to do with the dreams, I think a form of remote viewing is a greater possibility in that case.

One night I had a dream that my sister rang me to tell me my granda had died.
I was woken up by the phone ringing and it was my sister telling me my granda had died.

He'd been sick for a while though so it wasn't completely out of the blue.

For years and years I had dreams of my dog being run over. Last year I actually witnessed my dog being run over. Haven't had the dream since.

Now all I dream about is having sex in a swimming pool...

I think I remember this being discussed in another forum before..........

Sorry that was shockingly bad :eek:.

When I was 8 I had a dream that there was a cat at the end of my bed, woke up to actually find my neighbour's cat at the end of my bed.

ergonomics

The night before my last birthday I dreamt that I was telling my boyfriend that when my sister turned 21 she got a Storm watch but I'd never get one because they're too expensive. If I did get one I'd love a silver one with a blue face. I was really specific though and said the outside of the face would be dark blue and the inside would be turquoise.

He had gotten me the exact watch. I had never seen it before and he hadn't dropped me any hints.

People dream every night. And you have lots of different dreams each night. That adds up to a whole sh1tload of dreams.

Its just probability that at some stage, youre going to dream about something that might happen roughly the next day, whether its a god dying or a plane crash. Of course, when it does, you remember that instance, and it becomes an anecdote about your amazing psychic powers. But you conveniently forget the thousands upon thousands of dreams you've had that didn't come true.

deja vu pi$$es me right off, been havng it for years. latest one was a goodun though.
was playing a poker game,get dealt my cards,look down and this mad feeling like ive been here before hits me. friends are talking away and what there saying makes the feeling worse,like it had all happened before. so flop comes down and ive got a great hand, but i feel like i shouldnt play because i will definitely lose. everything is still familiar as i think,when i fold the feeling of deja vu stops and the other player has this amazing hand.
later that night i won the game due to my lucky decision to throw away that hand.

pre determined my ass

No after the plane crash and the weird golfball thing I told the wife as they were so vivid. I don't usually do that. Of course there have been many plane crashes since then I didn't dream about, but the golfball thing was very weird.

Do you often dream of gods dying? Must be elaborate...
