Have you ever heard of or read Julian Jaynes? He wrote a somewhat famous book called "The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind".

While the most controversial argument Jaynes makes is that humans weren't always self-conscious or self-aware, and that this development was fairly recent (as late as 1200 BC), he also theorizes that large groups of people can be controlled by or witness the same types of auditory or visual hallucinations.

A quote:

" Archaic humans were ordered and moved by the gods through both auditory hallucinations and visual hallucinations. The gods mainly "talked" to them--but sometimes "appeared," such as Athene appeared to Achilles. And "when visual hallucinations occur with voices, they are merely shining light or cloudy fog, as Thetis came to Achilles or Yahwey to Moses." [Ibid, p. 93] "

How does this apply to what you are experiencing? I read your post and the part where you say other people are feeling it, too - if you look at it from a purely scientific view, this would may be applicable.

Though I would bump this thread.....

In light of this.....

Romania's government collapses after protests

Romania's government has collapsed following weeks of protests against austerity measures, the latest debt-stricken government in Europe to fall in the face of raising public anger over biting cuts.

Emil Boc, who had been prime minister since 2008, said Monday he was resigning "to defuse political and social tension" and to make way for a new government. Thousands of Romanians took to the streets in January to protest salary cuts, higher taxes and the widespread perception that the government was not interested in the public's hardships in this nation of 22 million.


Read the OP to see the relevance.
