Question
Has anyone else ever had their empathy allow them precognitive flashes?

Over the past few years, I have gotten flashes of things to come involving people close to me. It's not quite the same as the usual sensations I get from people. Usually I just know exactly what someone is going to say to me and why days before hand.
Maybe I'm just picking it up from them before they have a chance to say it, but it still feels different...

In a word, yes.

I went through a coupla-year period where I'd get whacked with a sense of "call/email so-and-so" for about seven or eight different values of so-and-so. Nothing specific, just an overwhelming sense of "you really need to talk to this person right now" that would blow away concentration for anything else, wake me up in the middle of the night, and so on.

I remember about twenty-five to thirty of them, none specific, just a person I knew and an urgent need to get in touch with them right now. I managed to at least fire an email off or otherwise get a hold of people within a few minutes of each case - and each time it turned out something urgent had just happened.

It wasn't always bad news, though it was an upsettingly large percentage of the time (one of the instances was a very close friend I hadn't talked to in awhile who'd gotten a boyfriend not a half hour before I sent the email).

Odd and a bit unnerving until I got used to it - I've got a bit of a reputation as the village shrink in whatever communities I'm around, so I can usually help somehow. Too many times, too accurately to be a coincidence, though...

I've had the same thing happen...that overwhelming urge that you need to speak to someone. It usually happens with my sister and I...we are both nomads, but we tend to pop up in each other's lives when one needs the other.

i had a dream this summer that was disturbing, but not overly so, all i remember is waking up and thinking 'this year im going to meet an amazing guy, and he is going to die.' i remember being like 'well, that's creepy, i bet it wont happen..it'll be interesting to see if it does.'

it did, the amazing guy died a few weeks ago. :( i didnt remember the dream until that happened.

I've had images come in dreams too...usually little things, but surprisingly accurate.
I can always tell the prophetic dreams by the way they feel.

Of course. It happens all the time. Whether or not people listen to me about it is another story...

Yes... I've had that... It sort of feels like deja vu, yet a lot stronger than that... and sometimes, I don't even remember the premonition until just seconds before the "real" moment is there.

I'm in the midst of that sort of problem right now... There's someone who means the world to me and whom I Love dearly... he's going to be taking a trip next month and I don't want him to go... something isn't right about this trip and it all started with a dream I had... I finally broke down and told him about it... but he's still intent on going... I just wish I could stop him... but I KNOW that I can't...

I'm not sure if i'm an empath or not just because of well, my precognitive.. abilities.. but I remember vividly the day my grandfather went into the hospital that he would die.. maybe not that day, or any time soon, but I knew he would die in the hospital. I had tried to forget it when he was beginning to get well again, but I still had that nagging feeling in my head that he was going to die. Well, after that week of good news, he crashed and then died later.

Sometimes I'll just be reading or chatting on the computer to someone, and I'll get a feeling of deep dread. And I know something is wrong with someone I know and/or love... it's odd..

I understand that feeling. My mother once told me when I was young that she used to get precognitive flashes, but she hasn't really talked about since then. Do you think your abilities are hereditary?

I think so because even though my mother has never ever mentioned anything "out of the norm" to me, she is pretty good at knowing when things are going or are going to go wrong. I just know to never lie to her because she can tell when I am... but that could just be a mommy thing. *shrug*

feeling of deep dread.. I call them "psychic headaches" and my Dad has learned to trust them even though I know he doesn't really believe in them... I think after I knew that my best friend's gran had died, and when both of my grans died, and every time they get an update on either of my grandfathers I call home about 5 minutes after they put the phone down... he believes me, even if he doesn't believe in the concept of precog/empathy.

Well, I have been acused to read peoples minds from time to time, because I suddenly say or tell them about something they were just thinking about.
An example that I remember well is when my grandmother sat quietly thinking by herself, and I got the urge to take a piece of goldcolored paper and make it into a clump of gold and threw it her way as I said "here's your gold". She almost jumped of the sofa :).
I've also quite frequently dream about the future, but it's always only when it involves myself, usually just small things like, me playing a game that I later aquire, or something someone say or do.
Also I have dreams that repeat themselves or continues.
Dreams that repeat themselves are dreams that I dream several times over and over again, but each time I remember the last dream I had and I can improve on things.
Dreams that continues are dreams that you might dream 1 night, then continue on another night.
The repetive dream I remember best is one where I was in a spesial police unit or something, it always started with a bomb in my apartment, I laways got out. It continued with us get a call of a certain assassin being captured. When we arrived at the place the assassin was laying at a table in a car and was seemingly dead, I always got a bad feeling then and tried to warn the others but they never believed me. I then went out and a little later, so did the assassin pointing a gun in my direction, but since I have been training on avoiding bullets, I tried to avoid it, but got wounded.
The next dream was exactly the same but this time I calculated better and onøy got a flesh wound, the 3rd time I avoided it completely, and I never dreamt the dream again.
The continued dream I remember the most is a dream where I where protecting a girl and her daughter from a horde of zombies, we where hiding in a bedroom, but they finally discovered us, and as everything seemed lost and they started overwhelming us, I went berserk refusing defeat, and awakened.
Later that dream continued, and then I had fought my way into the living room by then I was sorrounded by hundreds of zombies and were holding my guts in with one hand, while still fighting, the last thing I remember was a zombie clawing for my eyes.
Another thing it seems that in about 90% of my dreams I am fighting
someone(s) or something(s), 5% future events, and the last 5% is about love.

a short history about this

2004-08-22 02:56 am UTC (link)
My precog powers began at a VERY young age. Most often they came in dreams, and usually about very unimportant events, but without fail they would come true no later than a month after having the dreams. They stopped for many years, until a break-up with my would-be wife triggered everything.

I'd put my shields up if I were you all...right about now.

Now, I find I'm in love with someone who I have already seen die for her beliefs. This is a future that can be avoided, but I feel that if it can that there'll be no choice in the end but for it to be a trade-off. And would I die for her...a million times over, but she's worth every ounce of pain I can't control in projecting.

Oh yes . . .I have had only a couple tha I've paid attention to. I didn't realize what I have been doing (precog) so I tended to brush off premonitions as daydreaming. I have had little intuitions about my boy since I met him, but at the time I was with another so I thought I was just being silly. each time would be a flash of us being happy together or being married. A year later incedents brought us together so that when I finally was with him, (the premonitions didn't not lead to this as I was skeptical), I had a huge flash like I was knocked over with happiness that I had found him. that was what the voice in my head said, you found him! so it could be a past life kind of thing. It was very random and I wasn't really thinking about him at the time, I was only about to see him at work.

Now, I wish I could tell him about my premonition, but he says he nevers tells people that he has a premonition about for fear they may try and change the future, or that the future event may happen to him instead. which has happened before. So he doesn't know I have premonitions too, except the one I had about the car breaking down but I counteracted and accidentaly got our dog injured instead. (Thats a whole nother story!)

Hello,

I've been reading other's postings and their experience with precognition have been far different than mine. Mine are sporadic and sometime so easy to understand, such as a whisper, or something more complicated than that.

I used to work in a fcility with different labs. There was this individual I never had the ability to penetrate in the sense, like most strangers you meet, if you smile at them they will smile back. So whenever in passing in the hallways he would never smile back and it seemed like he really was afraid of me. I was always dubious of his character too. So one day I saw him in the hallway and then immediately later I got this strange mental image, like an x-ray, of this man's heart. It was black. So I asked my friend who works with this individual and I made a comment of "he seems like a female predator" and she told me that she's heard stories about how he has a history of sexually harassing females he work with. It was a combination of observation and that weird mental image.

Sometimes I can tell if people are going to be sick or feel their sickness at the same time they are going through their pain. For me, these are weird experiences and that it is a constant reminder that we are all connected in some way or another. Even if we don't want to be!!!:-)

A couple of months ago, I had a rather interesting thing happen. I dreamt that my dearest friend, whom I only know online, had burned herself. In my dream, I walked up to her and she had just burned her right foot. It looked really bad, so I put some aloe vera on it, and a few minutes it was almost healed.

When I woke up from my nap, I instantly came online and told her about it. While I was dreaming that, she had spilled tea on her right foot and burned it. At first it looked very bad, then she put some aloe on it and it was much better and the burn was almost gone. I was rather freaked out about it at the time. She's the one who actually got me to see that I'm psychic and empathic.

I have never had any precognitive flashes, but that's probably because I don't WANT to have such an ability and would do everything to fight them.

There are some abilities that I would never want.

Sometimes you can only fight for so long. Then you learn to accept. When you are born with a gift like this you don't have a choice. You either accept or go crazy.
With acceptance comes the ability to learn how to control or at least deal with them on a certain level. Most of the time you just learn to ignore the bad things and accept the good.

i have recently had a few. the most strong was during a road trip i was on, my friend had driven back to the city for a while and was to meet up with us later. All of the sudden I started to feel very strange and immediately I thought of my friend, I didn't know why, but I did. I felt anxious and it was crazy because at the time I didn't know why. Then I found out later that he'd been in an accident. Everything came together, but I've found that now it feels like I have a stronger connection with him.
