Thread: Premonition that came true

When I was still in 8th grade, I fell asleep in class. I dreamt I met this kind girl in high school. Three years later, I meet a girl with the exact same facial features and in the same room.

Has this ever happened to you?

Just a bit of food for thought...
how many dreams have you had that havn't come true?
What's the ratio?

Also, if you just made a guess about things that could happen in the next few years, one guess every day for the next 3 years... how many do you think would come true?

Puts things in perspective that way.

I've tried that perspective myself, what seems to throw off doubt is the exactness of the premonition. For me it has always been an exact match in sense-experience just with added shock/surprise.

A straw-man tangent too...also possibly knowledge/memory being fabricated after an event, that would lead us to think we dreamed something in exactness? That seems more far-fetched to me than the alternative, trusting memory and sense-perception.

Something like that happened to me recently, yes. Join the Deep Dreaming forum, it's more for sharing, and less for debating.
