mom's who are sensitives, have extra perception/sensory, all that "woo-woo" stuff?? - Page 2

Some time ago I felt something bad was going to happen (something specific, I don't feel comfortable sharing the details.) When I sensed this, it felt like it was something that would happen in the future, but it is happening now. At first thought I would say it scares me, but it's not really fear I feel-just immense sadness. My personality is to feel responsible for everything-well, I don't think I have to explain to this group how that feels.

Im here, too. I cant go into looooooong drawn outs, but I realised at 7, when I was seeing the holocaust over and over every night, and survivors of it in my house for the entire THREE years I lived there as a child, that something was not right about me.

I am 33 now. I have seen, smelt, and heard a lot of things that are not explainable, and no, I am not mentally ill.

A friend of mine used to tell a story about growing up on a haunted property as a child. When he got to kindergarten he was surprised to find out that other children didn't have voices from nowhere that kept them out of trouble as they played like he did. He thought it was 'normal' because it had happened all his life. That, and the flickering lights and slamming doors. Whenever he ran too close to the main road or started to get too close to the farm equipment, the voices told him to obey his father and stay out of trouble.

[princesstutu]

bigeyes, that's such a cute story!

I'm here. I think I fit here... my (soon to be ex) husband says I have "super powers", but what he means is that I am able to see things and feelings and history and actions inside people and tell them... and usually freak them out, unfortunately, since it seems to be so specific.

For example, I can "feel" what others feel and why. I can pinpoint what they are doing and "sense" the details of what their personal history is that causes them to act that way.

[Ary99]

I belong here. I have *waves* in my life, periods of time when I am inexplicably more in tune with whatever. I have had incredibly vivid dreams. I dreamed about a dead teenage girl in Wisconsin. I saw her, her family, felt their grief. And the her name was spelled out in my dream,her common first name and her unusual Polish last name letter coming together like in a bowl of alphabet soup. I googled the name for kicks (it had been such a vivid dream) and pulled up her obituary. It was an eerie feeling to see her face.

I've had other dreams before about people I don't know but who exist or have existed. Prominent features are exaggerated so my brain tells me to note the eyes, the nose. Names are spelled out.

One time I dreamed about a corporate merger the day before it happened. I told my boss about it (I worked at a fine dining restaurant and he was intensely into the stock market and tried to educate me). He was convinced I was playing a joke on him.

I met a man once and the first thing I said to him was that he was born in Tehran and that his father was in the military. It honestly came out of my mouth before I'd even thought about it. He called me a freaky witch and never believed someone hadn't put me up to it.

That being said, I can go months or years without a vision. I have no control over it and it is a great mystery in my life.

Its funny you mention seizures (for one the test can be worthless) my gift practically died when I had a seizure my first year of college. I was punished for betraying my best female friend at the time.

One of the dreams that has plagued me my entire life was being slid down into a pit and covered with large dark objects and I can hear missile fire in the background. In recent years I've seen the dream only a handful of times, but now I feel that its the holocaust.


I wish I had half the intune ability I did growing up. I could get away with anything. I knew exactly what to say, what to do, I could feel what people were feeling and guide. I used to read tarot and scare the crap out of people. That was fun. But like I said since my seizure I am only hit and miss. I get similar feelings that are almost always wrong. I don't feel them with the conviction that I used to. Just goes to show you, never do bad deeds because you will pay for them.

[luckysam]

I have always been interested in these things, so I'm up for discussion anytime!

I have been called empathic and intuitive, to me I think I often have a strong sense for peoples feelings and what is going on with them. In recent years information about people has started to come that was more than just my "sensing" but it's not something that comes all the time. I keep practicing with friends doing readings-- I have a lot more practicing to do I think but it has surprised me how things sometimes flow!l I also have started to have some really interesting and exciting experiences, just kind of dipping your toes in kind of stuff where it seems like the veil is starting to lift a bit.

Glad you brought this up and made a great place to discuss it! :

[Kaitnbugsmom]

I will come back later to share more when the kids are settled and I can think more clearly but I have a long history of *knowings* and other intuitive incidents

Oh and I love carolyn myss

[siddie]

I know things too, not sure how, I guess it is just intutive.

I knew what was up with my ex before the actual stuff that precipitated the divorce came up. I didn't believe my intution and proceeded to snoop until I found the "evidence" I needed to physically see proof of what I had "known" all along... Felt terribly frightened and guilty about not getting out of situation earlier.

Another time I was up late online and had an urge to go to my hometown newspaper and read the obituaries, I felt like I HAD to know who had died, someone important. It was an old friend from work, I had been close to her husband and her previously. Before I had the feeling to check the obituary, I just "knew" she was going to die young with small children and it made me uncomfortable. I am still close to her husband today, she died 7 years ago. We often muse about how long we have been friends (25 years) and how it seems meant to be that we have supported each other thru so much.

At a younger age I was very unhappy about my living situation and in a relationship I was struggling to get out of. I longed to travel and visit the Caribbean and then BOOM, I was offered a job on a cruise ship. On the ship I had dreams about my horse being very sick, called ex and was told she was sick and he knew she needed to be put down but he didn't want to because he knew that once the horse was gone I was never coming back.

I had a ghost approach me in a house in New Jersy. The owner of the house said that she could tell I was intuitive and that I was surrounded by angels. I "knew" the ghost was elderly, female, wearng a nightgown, and perfume and did not like me being there. All confirmed by owner of the house.

I always knew I would live i Hawaii and would return via NC. Other times I have felt I would live in Europe, probably France or Belgium - hasn't happened yet.

IN relationships I have been very intune to when they are not going well, have "known" when I was cheated on by the pit in the stomach feeling that hit me despite dp's trying to hide it.

Sometimes Knowing stuff has scared me, in the past I asked to not know too much. NOw I feel like I would like to learn how to use it to know more and live my life better but most of the time it hasn't worked that way.

Sometimes it seems that if I long for something it can come true just to prove it is possible but I have to be careful not to spend too much time on it... Last year I was thinking about how natural an old boyfriend was and how it would be nice to have another 100% Portugese boyfriend. Next boyfriend was 100% Portugese but born in Hawaii. He felt the same connection instantly with me. Then I felt like there was something about the island of Kauai, he was transferred there by his job.

Coincidences occur strangely. I have been drawn to a certain house within 3 miles of my home for years. Ex, wanted to go to open house and consider buying it in 2000, I refused to go in because it was so dilapidated. Later it was restored by a new owner and I attended an open house in 2003, it was spectacularly done, Bali style on the waterfront, true to the original style as designed by the architect who is deceased but a local legend. Fell in love with it at that time. Then last year my good friend moved in to a guest house on the property and I visited her there often. Lately I have attended some positivity classes held there. Feel like I may live there sometime...

I could go on, it seems that sometimes there are threads that I can see so I know where they are going, but not how they got there.

My Mom said her aunt had powers to tell the future but that if she saw something bad she wouldn't tell the person, just would say she didn't know what was in the future for them. My mom comes from Gypsies in France.

I too have had some experiences but I've never been able to control it or harness it so I haven't invested much in it. I've been able to read face down cards telling what they were, except in reverse order, sort of like dyslexic psychic ability. I had an overwhelming compulsion once to play some lottery numbers (I never do the lottery) which I flubbed by going against the 'vision' and picking the last number on my own. I would've won had I played all the numbers I saw--I was off by the one number I picked. I've had dreams, although not for a long time.

Since having DD though and experiencing mother's intuition, I've been more interested.

How do you expand and augment your skills and abilities?

There are a lot of books on the subject, different things work for different people. Meditation helps.

And to your experience-WOW! Do you have any idea how unusual it is to get lotto numbers? That is the battle cry of every psychic doubter on the planet! If you're so psychic how come you can't tell me the lotto numbers?

For me, I seem to pick up on thought, feeling and intent, so I have always believed the reason I don't get lotto numbers is because there is no intent or thought behind them. It's mechanical. I did once have good luck playing a touch screen game at a casino by waiting for the choices to come up, closing my eyes and reaching out with my hand wherever it felt 'right.' But the numbers/amounts were already there behind the little images, I think. Or at least selected by the machine before I touched them.


I've only heard of that lotto thing happening one other time, someone getting the numbers in a dream, I believe.

RE: THe Lotto. It would probably have to happen over and over again for anyone to prove they were psychic, no? And you'd probably have to announce it all in advance which would be problematic. Say 100,000 decide to play your numbers? It only happened to me once. It was the strangest experience. I had a sudden compulsion to play the lottery, the pick 4. I have never played the pick 4, I didn't even know how to order the ticket. I haven't played it since. I haven't been given any inspiration to.

RE: Harnessing it. Does anyone here feel like they have any control over their abilities? How did you establish that control?

My mother and grandmother have known the future before - always bad things about to happen. Haha - not by blood but my grandmother did have a gypsy brother. They came through town low on cash, sold the boy to my great grandmother, sad but probably a better life from what I've always been told.

When I saw this thread I was intrigued. I'm glad you started this thread. It makes me sad that in our society we're so brainwashed into thinking that clairvoience(SP?) is weird, and unnatural. I'm currently in training to be a Waldorf teacher, and the one thing I love about it is that I've finally found a group of people who are very accepting of these gifts in adults and children. They're not weird and unnatural, they're actually becoming more and more common, ask any teacher, traditional or otherwise. Just accept what's happening and if you don't want it to continue I know most people will tell you to send out a mental message to whoever is visiting you that you would they rather not come to you, and protect yourself w/white light. I know it sounds all new age and hoaky but I've heard it works.

[bigeyes]

Unfortunately, when you tell people about this, unless they admit to having the same kind of experiences, often you will be told you are delusional, a con artist, or trying to get attention.

That has been my experience anyway.

I'm always hoping to find someone who knows something else about developing further or controlling it better. It frustrates me when I get partial information for someone who seems to desperately need help or comfort, or when I don't understand why something is happening.

[marlne]

I'm new in this section and this thread caught my interest.
I too have things happen, most of which I don't understand.
I have a lot of dreams come true.. Sometimes I can see a person or a photo of a person and I know something is going to happen to them. I just don't know what will happen, but something will soon. I can tell if someone may get pregnant soon sometimes too. I've also found that if I'm uncomfortable around a person, there is a good reason.

I've had other situations happen too, more supernatural type of things and I am always hoping those don't happen.

There are many times I wish someone came up to me and told me what was going on.
