Thread: Anyone else been having their dreams come true in weird ways lately?

Those are called precognitive dreams and a lot of people report having one ore more, myself included. A precognitive dream is a dream in which an event happens that then later happens in waking life, thus the dream "foretold the future." They're a bit controversial and some people believe in them while others don't. It's one of those things where it could just be coincidence but sometimes it's too vivid or too surreal to just be coincidence. Some people may call you a fortune seer, others would just say they're random happenstance. I advise you to think about any of these types of dreams you've had and make a conclusion yourself based on your own experiences.

Have I been having any lately, though? No, only once some time ago.

Yes, I know what precognitive dreams are and fully believe in them . I was just always under the impression that when most people have them, they come true exactly as it was in the dream. Or usually basically the same, at least.
I think I had one that came completely true as I dreamed it as a child, but it was about a death so I may have subconsciously been a little traumatized and kinda blocked myself from having full out precognitive dreams or something.

A lot of people don't believe in these, but its kinda hard not to when so many people have these.

I have a good one:

I was at work, working on a engine, but the engine was like 20 feet tall, obviously odd.
The engine kinda scared me, something about it. My boss came to work on it while I went near the shop (Im a mechanic)
I saw a dog, he took is collar off and said "It's too much" then ran away.
Suddenly I had the hugest feeling of impending doom, something scary and bad was going to happen.
I then saw a huge object, Like 2KM or so tall and wide just plow through the land.
I woke up, wondered about it and when to work. At 10 Am the shop caught fire and burnt down.

Yeah :S

Hah! Strange dream, I bet you woke up like 'wtf?!'.

It was pretty interesting. Dreams are totally more than just our imaginations easily.

Yeah i've had them before too but when you see it in real life if you havent written down the dream in a dream journal it feels more like a deja vu its very strange, i've had a few but mainly irrelevant so anything useful, like an action someone does or a place, i've seen in a documantary a guy which had a dream of a plane crash at a plane air show and then he went to one a few days/weeks later and the exact thing happened

When dreams come into reality, it usually is 80% that happens, and the rest is just dream junk that you won't see in real.

This sort of thing happens to me a lot, it seems. "Dreamja vu", I guess. Usually, for me, it's just a snippet of conversation that takes place in a specific location, and I don't really think much of it until it happens in reality. It's interesting to look back in your dream journal and notice the scene, though... It would probably happen more to me if I kept a more meticulous record.

i had one of those recently, where my dream came true along with lots of details.
the only thing that differed dream from reality, was the scenery.

I have two dreams like this...sort of anyways. I'm in the fourth grade, and I have a very vivid dream that it's night time, and my parents are both wearing white clothes and they are moving boxes out of the house. They do this for some time while I watch. The door to our house leads out to a deck, and directly exiting the door is a waist high banister. It's there because below are a set of cement stairs leading to a basement door. Anyways, in my dream my parents are moving a large box outside, and my dad falls over the banister and lands at the bottom unconscious in a heap. Red starts coming through is clothes at his chest. I was obviously very upset and asked my mom what we should do? Shouldn't we do something? She just kept moving boxes out of the house on her own, and told me that there was nothing we could do to change it. When I woke up, I was literally shaking and I couldn't go back to sleep. The next day I went to school and came home, just like always...but my dad didn't. This was before cell phones so we weren't sure what had happened to him. It turns out that he'd had a heart attack while driving home from work, and was lucky enough to pull over at a fire station before it got too bad. They took him to the hospital and finally we were contacted. It was a fairly serious hear attack. At the time, I didn't pay the dream much mind, but it stayed with me. Fast forward to when I'm 18. I'd just moved out of my parent's house into an apartment with a friend. My friend was out of town and I was at the apartment by myself. I went to bed, and had the exact same dream after all those years. I woke up at around eleven at night and I couldn't go back to sleep. I really wanted to call my parent's house because after the first dream so many years ago, I was actually pretty worried because I associated it with my dad's heart attack. I knew they would be asleep, and I thought I was being silly so I just sat on the couch to watch some TV for a bit before going back to sleep. My mom called about an hour later to tell me that my dad had had a major heart attack and she was leaving with the paramedics for the hospital and I should meet her there if I could. Twice I've had the dream. Twice my dad has had a heart attack immediately after. I'm not sure if it's coincidence. It doesn't feel like it is. After a quadruple bi-pass, my dad is still alive and kicking thank goodness, but I know if I ever have that dream again I won't hesitate to act on it and wake them up in the middle of the night if need be. Better to do it and have it be a false alarm. I actually told my dad about the dreams, and he laughed and said that he'd head straight for the emergency room if I have it again. This is the only time something like this has happened to me ever. Unless it's winning lottery ticket numbers, I hope it never happens again.

I seem to have precognitive dreams at least once a month! I always get a feeling a deja vu and then think about it and realize that I've seen exactly what was going on at the time, in a dream. My cousin had a pretty scary one though, he was 17 and a volunteer firefighter and paramedic. During the middle of the night he slept walk into his mom's room in a panic yelling about burning buildings, he opened the slider and was just yelling when my aunt woke him up. He said that in his dream, a plane was flying through the city (we live in New York) destroying buildings and everything was on fire and he was trying to save people and put out the flames, but he couldn't. That morning was 9/11.

I saw the picture of a guy who's picture wasn't shown until the next day. I was like what the hell?
