i know that some people have great intuition. Saw it first hand. Awesome. I think psychics are real, but im not sure about john edwards and miss cleo. seems like if i were a psychic, i would not want a lot of people to know about it.

Fantasy, more than anything. We have no bio-organic mechanism to transmit information or detect information in this way.

we use less than 10 % of our brains. Who knows what we are capable of....

pretty skeptical about this, but shit, its possible. i think a lotta its just being in tune w/ someone. i have a friend who is outta town a lot for work. he's called me fm. halfway across the country to see if i'm okay when i'm having a really bad day...
really, though, i think dogs have better intuition than most people.

I once had the exact same dream as a friend of mine - we were both riding in the back seat of another freind's car, and she was telling us a dream she had --- and I am all dumbfounded because it is the same dream I had -- and I interrupted her, and finished the dream for her, then she was dumbfounded!!!

I think there is a gift beyond intuition, just as there is a gift of healing.
But it is uncommon, and there are a lot more charletons than there are the genuine article.
But I believe they do exist.

My direct experience; it is real. Slam dunk.

Starfish, I had a similar experience to yours. When my ex-hub & i were married, I was having this dream about creatures chasing me across the ice, that looked like a cross btwn polar bears and dogs.

I awoke in a sweat. Then my hub woke up, all excited, and told me he'd dreamt that these polar bear-dogs were chasing me, so he got a gun and shot them!

I told him he didn't have to shoot them. But anyway, we shared the same dream.

I certainly believe that people can be psychic. A very good friend of mine is involved in a lot of spiritual things which she shares with me and it's interested me greatly.

Is it possible for you to share any of yr friend's experiences, melasande, w/out exposing that person? If not, it's cool.... :-)

I think that Heavenly Father can inspire us to call a friend on a specific day because he knows they need it - things like that. I don't believe in the ability to 'see' the future or tell someone xactly what will happen to them on this day or when they do that, etc.
Many times tho I would have payed anything to KNOW my future whether that be thru a 'psychic' or whatever. I wish they existed. But then what would our free agency be meant for? Can you tell I'm tired? I can. Can I sleep tho? Nope. Fun for me!

lamb3, i personally am pretty skeptical about psychics who charge and make it a business.

I don't think psychic abilities, if people do have them, could be controlled in that way.

But I wish I could see into the future too! :-)

I've had some experiences that are unexplainable but are not uncommon in my family, but I wouldn't call it psychic, it just a knowing thing that comes along once in awhile.

The only time it bothers me is when someone dies... like the day I was driving to work and passed an accident. It was dark outside, the cops were there directing traffic, ambulance siren coming, on the way. Just some car wrecked in a ditch, and as I passed it, I instantly knew there was a woman in the car who was dying and she was someone connected to a some guy I worked with but I was not friends with, that he loved her. I was like oh, what do I do? Not like you can walk up to some one and say, hey you got to go now, someone you love is dying... but when I went into the shop, I found him and told him kind of casually that I passed an accident on my drive in, he asked where... he tells me his sons family lives near there, his girlfriend who is like a daughter to him leaves for work about that time, asked what type of car... like sorry, too dark, no idea. An hour later, the phone call came... he did get to spend some time with her before she died. That rips my heart out to know things like that and glad it doesn't happen too often.

I'm much rather know things like when someone is pregnant that I haven't seen in awhile and they haven't told anybody in the family yet... that is fun, like yeah, try to keep a secret in THIS family? Someone will dream it. I have a grand-niece who visited me in a dream when her mommy was in her first trimester and said, "My name is Spring." She visited another great-aunt and told her the same thing. Her parents named her Dakota, but the first time I held her she was being fussy but I took her in my arms and said 'hey Spring, how ya doing' and she was all coos and smiles. She's one of us, whether her daddy likes it or not. He thinks us old aunties are frikkin nuts.

I could cite many other examples but I've rambled on long enough.

I do believe in this. I'm not sure if I'd call them psychic or intuition or what, but I think that some people can sense things that are happening on another level. I can, but not as much as I'd like.

I have strong connection to my mother. I can sense when something is not right with her and she can too. I just get this overall feeling of doom. I'll get a call from her later explaining what happened. It's very errie. My mother almost died giving birth to me, and we look like carbon copies of one another, so I think we're connected in a special way.

Bull and coincidence.
