Real Premonitions Or Coincidence?

Hi, and thanks for sharing! I am totally in awe of your story. I can sometimes foretell things that are going to happen, or get a bad feeling about things that may happen, like premonitions. Sunday night, I was reading a website that I frequent, when one of the posters in the forums said that he was laid off of his job of many years, and would have to sell lots of his possessions to make ends meet. I immediately got a feeling of dread. I didn't know why, but perhaps I was just fearing the worst thing that could happen at the time in my own life. Then last night, perhaps that feeling of dread reared it's ugly head, because I received a suspension from my job for retaliating against a female there by calling her a profane name. She was causing me grief yesterday, and after complaining to management before about idiot people there, which they never did a thing about, they slapped a 3-day suspension on me. Now, I am facing an uncertain future, wondering if they will terminate me or if I will be able to keep my job. I will find out thursday. Somewhat of the same thing happened about a year ago. I was outside the building, after work, talking to my friend. He was saying bad things about someone at work, and I was hoping nobody heard us, because they would accuse me of doing it, too. I was fearful that someone might of, and the next day, I was waiting for both of us to be called into the office by management, and perhaps get terminated. Luckily I wasn't terminated, but he did lose his job! He didn't get terminated because of what he said about the other person, but he got termed for another reason, far different from that. It had to do with an on-the-job accident. Still, it was too close for comfort! I don't know why some of us get these feelings of dread, or premonitions, or foresights, or whatever applies. I guess it just shows we are all spiritual beings, and we have the ability to sense things.

All my life I've had a fascination with the metaphysical side of life. Part of me wishes I never had this fascination, because of the things I've foresaw, and the things I've sensed. Bad things! However, sometimes, it's pleasant things, like there are times when I started singing a song that I like, and then the next song on the radio is that song. I am not talking about a popular song, or a current hit at the time, either. I was just thinking of a song, started to sing it, and boom - It's on the radio a few minutes later. Or I was thinking of a friend or family member, and boom - The phone rings, or there's a knock on the door, and it's them. Not sure why we don't have the same level of ability to foresee things, but we do have that ability.

One more occurance to share. Very recently, someone I never saw in my life was walking down the street near my house. A thought popped in my head, "That guy is going to say something to me..." The next thing I know, he's asking me if I want to sell my Sony PSP handheld game system that I was carrying.

Recently, after seeing a movie I saw before, "Final Destination 2", and a movie I haven't seen before, "Premonition", I can definitely relate to strange occurances in my own personal experiences.

kristalove: Controlling it comes with believing in yourself, confidence that your premonitions/intuition is right. Sometimes meditation can tune in your gift stronger, with affirmation techniques (which always have to be said in present tense and in positive terms), which is telling yourself in a meditative state something like I know I have the gift of foresight and I know how to use it; also visualization, which is picturing the thing you got a bad feeling off of in your mind in a meditative state, what plays out or comes to mind during this is almost always right.

The biggest thing you can do to control it is have confidence that you truly have a gift, it will come through stronger, meditation is like maintenance/performance enhancing of the brain, kind of like supercharging, nos, rotating the tires and oil changes for cars.

Reading, reading, and more reading about your gift will help you understand more, and in turn bring more confidence on using it. It will also lead you to other techniques to sharpen your skills other than meditation, I suggest meditation cause it works for me, but its not everybody's cup of tea.

We are here because we are. That does matter so make the most of it and stay in touch and find your important place in life. The other stuff is interesting. I have an alien story, nothing dramatic, when I was 17. It's a true one, to me, because I saw it though I never told anyone. For decades I forgot it, then I remembered and laughed a little. My date was freaked a little those many years ago. Mostly I spend time caring for my children, but learning about other stuff is interesting. Getting to in touch or emotional might inhibit what we learn.
