I suppose this would be the best place to ask about this or to describe the sensation that has overcome me lately. In my past years I have been no
stranger to the experience of deja vu, however, more recently something about it has changed drastically and I am trying to figure out why and perhaps
the meaning behind it.
Allow me to first start with a little bit about myself. As early as mid 2008 I started having a feeling of dread come over me as if something drastic
was coming. As time has gone on I have felt it grow stronger but never to maximum. I find myself looking on to tense political situations and
wondering if something drastic will come out of them. I've heard many people express this feeling around ATS so I was not surprised. I believe we are
all linked to one another and the universe regardless.
Back in July of 2009, my friend, who at the time was stations in Iraq with the National Guard, were talking about this tense situation rising. Him
being Christian he prayed that night for some answers and I mediated on it. The peculiar thing that occured that night was a vision of sorts, almost
like a dream but too real. If felt as if I was living it then and there. I won't go into detail about it but it did involve TEOTWAWKI.
Anywho, I was surprised to find that my friend had the exact same vision as I did - (sounds preposterous I'm sure but he was the one to even bring it
up. I was shocked.)
What has happened since then is an increase in deja vu however, and this is the part that gets me - I have precognition of events to come with the
deja vu. For instance, the first time it happened I was typing a document on the computer when all of a sudden the sensation came over me, though
stronger than it was ever before. After the original strange feeling of familiarity passed, the sensation that followed was undescribable. In a blur
of images the next 5 minutes or so played out in my head - a conversation to come, a move to a different room, and even the food that we were about to
eat.
It came true exactly as it played out in my head. I was skeptical at first, thinking that it wa sa self fulfilling prophecy, however, I watched my
friend closely to what he did and sure enough, I did not have control over his actions.
The second time it occured it was very similar panning out the next five minutes or so.
When it happened for the third time I saw the precognition as normal, however, having seen it I refused to follow what I saw. Instead of leaving the
area I was as I had seen in my mind, I opted to stay put and break the chain.
Tonight it happened for the fourth time and this time it was even more different. I was typing with my friend over a messenger program and viewing a
website when the sensation hit again. However, the procognition was different in that it only showed about 30 seconds ahead of time, followed by a
point later in the night that I didn't realize until I was at that point. It was not another deja vu feeling, it was actually remembering the result
of the deja vu experience.
Some key thing to note are -
*It has only happened this way while in contact, via online or personal with my friend who shared the vision with me.
*It has only started to occur after I became more spirtual. (Prior to mid last year I was a hardcore atheist.)
*So far the events I have seen have played out exactly except for the third time where I intentionally went against it. I was along at the time and
thus I don't know if my actions would have affected those around me different if I would have seen them.
*I haven't really been able to find a trigger for it besides certain points of contact with my friend.
So my main questions are:
Has anyone else experienced something similar to this and does anybody have any ideas how I should approach this?
The main reason I ask if because I don't know the validity of precognition, and I never really believed in anything of the sort until I have been
personally experiencing it. The only qualm I have with it is if what I am seeing is truly the future, then what does that mean about my vision? Will
it come true or will I be able to change that path like I did with the third experience?
Any help or comments are much appreciated.
