Am I physic? I often think of things and then they actually happen.?

Question

I often think of things and then they actually happen. My dreams seem to spur me on. I also dream of people sometimes and then I meet them the next day - people that I would not see on a regular basis.

Answer 1

Hi,

I think some people do have this ability to 'sense' or dream about things that are going to happen. It happens with me quite often. In fact it is something I accept as a part of who I am.
With regard to your 'dreams' and the above answer, why don't you write down your dreams or discuss them with someone you can trust? My sister's the person I confide in and she has witnessed many of my dreams come true often months after the dream. Neither of us question it, we just accept it.
If you write them down you will also be able to analyse them in greater depth and appreciate them for what they are. Not every dream comes true of course. Just as I believe not every dream has a hugely significant meaning. Some however are incredibly insightful and in time you will learn to recognise which dreams you should focus on more for spiritual development (for want of a better phrase) and which to dismiss as having been merely influenced by events of the day or the subconscious' wishful thinking!

Hi MAGSC

As far as having thoughts turn into real events, this could have something to do with the fact that we tend to only notice things that interest us.

So, you think that you'll meet someone, or see something, and then it happens, and you notice and remember that. But if you have exactly the same thoughts, and you don't meet the person, or see the thing you thought of, then you just forget about it.

In order for your thinking to become psychic (I guess that's what you meant?) you'd have to score better than 50%. Because for every such thought there are only two basic options - it does happen, or it doesn't happen. So even pure guesswork could give you a 50% chance of having your thought "come true."

What percentage of your thoughts turn into reality?

On the question of dreams, we have an average of 3-4 periods of REM sleep (that's normally when we dream) per night.

That's about 24 periods per week
About 98 periods per month, and
About 1277 periods per year.

And we aren't necessarily restricted to one story line in each period of REM sleep.

Set against those figure, how often would you guess you meet people you've dreamed about?

In order to understand dreams we need to remember that periods of REM sleep (which is when we dream) usually last for around 20-30 minutes, yet most people's descriptions of their dreams would fill only a fraction of that time. What we DON'T remember could easily be as important, if not MORE important than the little bit we still retain when we wake up.

The purpose of dreams, as far as we understand them, is to process the vast amount of information that comes in through your senses each day whilst you're awake.

On this basis the "meaning" of our dreams is simply that we are making sense of information which previously didn't have a "meaning", for us, because it hadn't been processed so as to fit into our mental maps of the world (all your existing beliefs, ideas, values, etc.).

Given this purpose, there will always be something in each dream, though we may not remember it, which ties the dream to recent "real life" events. However most of the things which appear in our dreams may have nothing to do with what has been happening in our life just before the dream occurs. Things can appear in a dream that have been part of the dreamer's memories as far back as they first started forming memories - or anytime in between then and now.

Nor do the things in your dreams have to be obviously related to each other. Like I said, dreaming is a process of finding/making meaning, and the brain can draw from anywhere in its huge store of memories in order to carry out that process.

By the way, there is nothing random about this process, but your subconscious mind can come up with connections that your conscious mind would never dream of (!), which is why dreams often seem pretty weird.

So when, if ever, you happen to notice yourself having what seems like a weird dream in future you can literally rest assured that everything is OK. Your brain is actually doing, with great skill, one of the many jobs it was designed to do

Certainly, many folks have talents that are not considered traditional. There is also the laws of probability at work. Remember that in any normal distribution 10% of the total are in the tail at either end. I suggest that you listen to your feelings and try to develop them. We often condition ourselves as to what is rational and logical. Be practical as well. Now if you start dreaming about investments, let us know.

Answer 4

did you mean psychic? you said "physic" which would be an abbrevation for physical. i am a psychologist and I would say there is something much deeper going on here. you need to get therapy to see what is causing you to believe these things to be true. im not calling you a liar, but you may be imagining that you had these dreams/thoughts prior to them happening. you could be developing a serious mental disorder. im not being sarcastic or mean, you need to get checked out.

good luck
