I thought I would bring this article to the attention of the ATS community considering the amount of 'feeling something about to happen' comments that are frequently posted.

Can Your Body Sense Future Events Without Any External Clue?
www.sciencedaily.com...

"What hasn't been clear is whether humans have the ability to predict future important events even without any clues as to what might happen," said Julia Mossbridge, lead author of the study and research associate in the Visual Perception, Cognition and Neuroscience Laboratory at Northwestern.

...

This phenomenon is sometimes called "presentiment," as in "sensing the future," but Mossbridge said she and other researchers are not sure whether people are really sensing the future.

"I like to call the phenomenon 'anomalous anticipatory activity,'" she said. "The phenomenon is anomalous, some scientists argue, because we can't explain it using present-day understanding about how biology works; though explanations related to recent quantum biological findings could potentially make sense. It's anticipatory because it seems to predict future physiological changes in response to an important event without any known clues, and it's an activity because it consists of changes in the cardiopulmonary, skin and nervous systems."

The study, "Predictive Physiological Anticipation Preceding Seemingly Unpredictable Stimuli: A Meta-Analysis," is in the current edition of Frontiers in Perception Science. In addition to Mossbridge, co-authors of the study include Patrizio Tressoldi of the Università di Padova, Padova, Italy, and Jessica Utts of the University of California, Irvine.

My questions are....

What quantum biological findings could possibly explain this phenomenon?

Does this work in accordance with our sensory systems via stimuli, or is this a whole different thing?

Is this somewhat related to the behavior of animals, especially of dogs.... such as them moving around in anticipation just before an owner returns home or natural disasters?

Does anybody have any theories that they'd like to propose about how this may work?

Hypothetical:

Is it possible for a future event of such great importance and impact.... that all of humanity will be instantly aware of it's coming with out actually having knowledge of said event?

In my opinion it is simply your unconsciousness processing sensory information and stored memory, triggering a thought process or a direct result of a thought process of which you THINK it is precognition.

The fact that an infinite number of prediction threads have been posted on ATS of which not a single one turned out to be correct, is a clear indication that no such thing as precognition exists.

Absolutely...at least a couple times a week.It's usually small time stuff but once in a while I'll have a dream of epic proportions and from my perspective,it happens.

Well, in my opinion, thoughts are things. Always.

Whatever is thought about turns into a "thing" in another dimension. What dimension - I'm not sure. The Astral plane somewhere. And so whatever you think it put out into the Astral - which is very close-by to our human consciousness-es. So people who are sensitive to what is going on in the Astral, might feel it in their bodies.

I have one experience that reminds me of what you said.

I was driving late at night on the freeway home from work, I saw a car swerve past me and get off at my exit.

IN my head plain as day I saw the car flip over on a curvy road that followed a block after getting off my exit.

I saw that and discreetly followed as it was on my way anyway, Sure enough the car that swerved flipped over.

I got off and helped the man out of his car and called the ambulance, To this day I don't know if it was my mind subconsciously putting all the signs together, or something else.

I saw his reckless driving, and knew the coming roads, the thing that freaked me out was the way the flip happened was exactly what I saw.

i read somwhere that the brain can see around 0.7 of a second in to the future. it had something to do with what your seeing now has already happened 0.7 seconds ago if that makes sense. i am trying to find the article that i read.

this link has a few interesting points...

www.nytimes.com...

“It takes time for the brain to process visual information, so it has to anticipate the future to perceive the present,”

That's exactly what I was referring to.

Your subconsciousness had all the neccessary bullet points in order to draw a conclusion.

I do not believe in precognition, it's your brain adding simple math from previous stored memory, and taking a guess that something "might" happen.

Yes I believe so for there are certain occasions that our body can predict yet our mind can't explain.

"can your body sense future events without and external clue"

Firstly, there is no such thing as the "future" in the sense it hasn't occurred yet. past, present and future exist simultaneously. EVERYTHING is happening in the present, happening NOW, we only experience time linearly thus our interpretation of past and future. All events and possibilities in existence are fundamentally static.

Secondly, everything in existence is interconnected with itself. Everything is apart of the "source", *YOU* ARE THE UNIVERSE and the universe is you. You are connected to the most distant star as if space never existed. So to say "without any EXTERNAL clue" wouldn't be true.

Thirdly, (linearly speaking) when you Sense future events (like many people have) all you are doing is resonating your vibration at the same frequency as the future events vibration in a paralel earth. If your vibration stays the same and the energy doesn't change, what you 'sensed' will occur.

Its determined by *YOUR* core vibration. what ever that vibration is *YOUR* reality will manifest instantly to match it. Reality is literally a mirror, what you put out is what you get back.

Fred Alan Wolf stated that the quantum wave of probability is true and that there are two, hence the 2nd degree in the calculation of were a particle will most probably be. There are on the other hand physicists that just think that the wave is virtual and needed for the model.

I like Wolf's idea. He also stated that at the interface of the two waves, one from what we call the past and one from what we call the future, the now is located. This now needs to be consistent with that particular past and that particular future.

I am a poker player. My GF is intuitive. She tells me the days and times to play in the Indian casino down the road from us, for when lady luck will smile on me. She has never been wrong. How would you explain this?

I am sure most have heard of this project before but just in case. This thing went haywire before the events of 9-11

I just stumbled onto this topic too. It is mind boggling.
