COMMENTS The dream on this page are all my own dreams. They all have
some psychic content. These dreams were all significant or me and helped me
shape my own views on premonitions. The first psychic dream I remember is
this
-----------------------------------
THE DREAM I was in my home watching TV. The TV was showing some terrible
disaster - it was the end of the world.
THE REALITY The next day nothing happened of real consequence news
wise. The world did not end. But the dreamer went outside and noticed that
the drains down his street were broken. Huge amounts of water were gushing
out. It seemed like the place was a war zone. Seconds later the dreamer heard
a scream. A woman was screaming at the top of her voice for help. Her house
was on fire. The fire brigade were called. The dreamer thought at this point
that it seemed like it was the end of the world. Then he thought of this dream.
THE INTERPRETATION Normal dreams seem to have one main feature - that they
concentrate on the day before and feelings forming in our minds then. Premonitions
dreams seem remarkably caught in the here and now. Many premonitions dreams
will come true on the actual day of the dream. In other words they come true
at the earliest possible moment.
Dreams above all capture emotions. So in a sense this dream came very true.
The dreamer lived on a peaceful street yet on this day a couple of incidents
happened together and soon the place seemed to have descended into chaos.
The drains were spewing water at an alarming rate. Then a woman was shouting
for help.
Symbolic Meanings
END OF WORLD : "in this case the end of the world linked to a sense that
total chaos was breaking out in a seemingly normal street"
---------------------------------
COMMENTS This dream did seem to me to capture some vital emotions that
I was about to feel on the day of the dream. I had several other dreams some
less convincing. Some related to football matches. I dismissed these as coincidences.
Yet the following dream was a defining moment in my own life as far as premonitions
are concerned. This dream captured some details about the day to come. It
was significant in that I linked the dream to a particular person by decoding
the symbols. On that day this person(Princess Diana) died in a car crash.
Since that happened I have never doubted premonitions.
------------------------------------
THE DREAM The dream starts off in a public school. It is a place of
extreme privilege and I see some Latin books. Then I am in a car with two
boys who were cheerily chatting. It is a normal day and they are joking with
me about Manchester united football club.
The scene changes. I am then suspended above a different car. It is like
some event is being replayed. The car is striving very fast through a
river - yes a river. There is a Commentary that I'm hearing. I hear that when
the car reaches the bottom of the hill all the people inside will die.
I am then Speaking to myself. I'm repeating over and over the words I can't
believe they going to kill her off. In the dream the person to be killed
off was a character in a soap opera who was called Mrs. Thoroughgood .
In the final part of the dream everything seems to have returned to normal.
There seems to be some back street.
THE REALITY The dreamer woke up from this dream and felt that something terrible
was about to happen. He intensely scrutinized every aspect of it. He established
some links with Princess Diana through the symbols. He felt that something
terrible was about to happen yet that day and was surprised when nothing did.
Yet right at the point when he went to bed that night Princess Diana was involved
in a fatal car crash. This was one of the few defining moments of our time.
The whole country stopped at this news and it opened up a period of intense
reflection in virtually everyone.
THE INTERPRETATION Obviously many sections of this dream are deeply symbolic.
Yet through the symbols the dreamer did make some strong associations. He
linked the two boys with Princess Diana's two sons who both attended similar
posh public schools. They were both reputed to be Manchester united fans as
well.
The car descent down the hill reminded the dreamer of the film the "Italian
Job" where a high speed chase ends up going through a church and down
some steps. It was a similarly dangerous car chase and compared to the high
speeds which Princess Diana's car was going at. The crash was like in the
dream as it occurred at the bottom of a hill.
The figure Mrs. ThoroughGood is the name of the dreamers next door neighbour
from childhood. She died years before the dream took place. Its an obvious
synonym and it was clear at the time that the most likely person to fit this
term "thoroughly Good" was actually Princess Diana. She was famous
for charity work and championed many causes around the world many of which
were deeply unfashionable such as AIDS awareness.
The dream took place in a river. Its interesting to note that the crash that
killed Princess Diana took place at an undersection of the River Seine. So
if you looked at that road on a map then at that point the road was actually
in a river.
The dream did capture the course of events and in fact replayed the entire
day in some senses. The dream started off having a normal feel to it. That
was captured by the first part of the dream which featured chats about football
- that day was an ordinary Saturday with football matches taking place everywhere.
The point where the dreamer repeats to himself "I cannot believe they
are going to kill her off" reminded the dreamer of the emotions that
he felt when the death was announced. It captures a sense of total shock.
Symbolic Meanings
MAN UTD : "This football club was thought to be the club that Prince
Harry and Prince William supported"
MRS THOROUGHGOOD : "Someone who is thoroughly good - at the time the
dreamer associated this with Princess Diana"
SOAP OPERA : "The royal family is often described as a soap opera - in
fact the longest running soap opera"
------------------------------
COMMENTS I have also noticed that we may have many dreams which may
be classed as premonitions. They capture emotions and situations which are
about to happen. They may in some cases be symbolic but there is enough there
to suggest some psychic content. The following dreams capture some event or
situation from the next day. These maybe very trivial. Yet on that day they
maybe seen as defining moments within that day.
-------------------------
THE DREAM I am in a terrible state. A tree has just fallen down and
I say to my sister - I don't think I want to see you today.
THE REALITY The next day the dreamer had
toothache due to a broken filling. It was a holiday so he could not see a
dentist immediately.
THE INTERPRETATION The dreamer could not link this dream to anything
in his current emotional situation. So there was an obvious possibility that
this was a premonition. If dreams can be said to link to emotions that we
are about to feel the next day then surely this was the case. The terrible
feelings in the dream could surely symbolise the pain
we associate with toothache.
-------------------------------
THE DREAM I was walking towards some great headland. I see the light
is lighting it up in a beautiful and atmospheric way. As I get nearer I see
the wall to this town. I continually try to get up onto this wall but whatever
I do I cannot.
THE REALITY The dreamer had planned to go
up the coast the next day on his mountain bike to take photos of a scenic
headland. There was a tall ship due in town and it was a great opportunity.
Yet on the day of the dream the winds seemed very strong. The forcast did
not mention huge winds. The visit was called off as these winds were simply
too strong.
THE INTERPRETATION Premonitions do seem to have a strong connection to the
actual day of the dream. Here the premonition did seem to come true. The dreamer
was set on making this visit yet had to call this off.
Obviously this is not the kind of premonition that will convince the skeptics.
Yet such premonitions will seem to come true. Its really up to the reader
to judge.
Symbolic Meanings
HEADLAND : "the dreamer was due to visit a beautiful coast area"
LIGHTING : "the dreamer was interested in photograhy and the way the
headland was lit up was ideal photography conditions"
------------------------------
COMMENTS It is also interesting to note that many premonitions seem
to come true but they do so in a way that adds meaning. There seems to be
a clever twist. The dream comes true in a way that the dreamer could not predict.
-----------------------------------
THE DREAM I dreamt simply that I got a puncture on my bike
THE REALITY This was an odd dream. It was
very short. It did not seem to relate to anything currently going on in his
life(punctures symbolise drained feelings). So thats usually a good sign that
the dream maybe a premonition. In this case the dreamer did take a trip out
on his bike on the day of the dream. He did not get a puncture that day but
did accidentally lose his spare inner tube - taken in case of a puncture.
THE INTERPRETATION The dreamer always believed that he had premonitions. In
this case he thought this was a premonition. But he also felt that premonitions
do not come exactly true. They come true but there is a slight twist to events.
The twist also is in a way that seems the dream seem even more convincing.
In this case the dreamer did not get a puncture but did lose an inner tube.
For him the effect was the same. He had to go and purchase a new inner tube
for his bike.
------------------------------
COMMENTS The following dream is interesting in that nothing actually
happened on the day of this dream - it passed by uneventfully. It was only
a few days later that the dreamer found out that his parents had had a huge
argument on this day. Perhaps this maybe seen as a premonition of that.
-----------------------------
THE DREAM I was at some traffic lights and then an IRA bomb went off.
I immediately connected this to terrorists.
THE REALITY When the dreamer had this dream
he felt it was a premonition. For him premonitions came true usually on the
actual day of the dream. Nothing happened. Yet a few days later he found out
that his parents had had a huge argument and his father had broken his arm.
These events occurred on the day of the dream. Up till this point his parents
had been remarkably trouble free living a very quiet life.
THE INTERPRETATION For much of this day the dreamer did not remember this
dream. Then as he was heading into town he remembered the dream. He had a
huge sense that this was a premonition and was surprised that nothing happened
that day.
Dreams are hugely symbolic. Its easy to say that this dream did not come true
as no terrorist acts took place that day. None took place in the period after
the dream. Yet surely a terrorist attack could be symbolic of a terrible personal
event. Here his previously peaceful parents suddenly declared war on each
other. The dreamer did not find out about these events immediately but they
took place on the day of this dream.
Its also interesting to note that the time that the dreamer remembered the
dream was at roughly the exact time when this argument took place. He was
not at a traffic lights but was at a main junction.
Symbolic Meanings
BOMB : "this could have been a premonition of this huge argument between
his parents"
------------------------------
COMMENTS The following dream is interesting in that it seemed to come
true immediately. I have had several other dreams which are similar to this.
They capture something that happens immediately on waking.
------------------------------
THE DREAM I had a very short dream. I just dreamt of Tony Blair the
British Prime minister. He had agreed to get in a boxing ring. He had all
his spin doctors around him.
THE REALITY This was in some ways a remarkable
dream. The dreamer dreamt about Tony Blair and as soon as he woke up he turned
on the radio. Then he spookily heard the words Tony Blair.
THE INTERPRETATION The dreamer felt this was a premonition. Its not a dream
that would convince the skeptics yet in this case it did seem to come immediately
true. This is a remarkable coincidence. Many people would argue that this
was exactly that - a coincidence. Yet the dreamer stated that this sort of
premonition had happened several times before.
-------------------------------
COMMENTS Because of these dreams which seemed to come true I decided
to test out my abilities. First I had a little experiment with lottery numbesr
and then horse racing.
------------------------------
THE DREAM I went to sleep that night and deliberately tried to have
a dream about the lottery. I assigned symbols to each number(49 symbols for
the 49 numbers). I woke up and had the following dream. In the dream I dreamt
of 7 numbers. Six of the numbers were associated with the grade B+.
THE REALITY The dream revealed 7 numbers
which left the dreamer with a dilemma. The lottery only required 6 numbers.
So he left out the number which seemed different from the others as it was
linked to a different and lower grade. The 6 chosen numbers were associated
with the grade B+. When the lottery was held the 6 chosen numbers did not
come up. Yet the number that was excluded did come up.
THE INTERPRETATION The dreamer was half expecting not to win the lottery.
It was an interesting test to hold though. In some small way the dream did
come back and seem to come true. It did have a logic which made the dreamer
think after the event. The dreamer used the following logic to the dream -
the 6 chosen numbers were all picked because they were associated with a higher
grade(B+). Yet if you think about it that grade is absolutely absurd. If a
dream was to associate a grade with a lottery number then there would only
be two grades(F and A+).
The dreamer did gain some consolation from the fact that the dream did seem
to have some kind of mad logic which came true. He felt that the dream did
come true but with some mad twist.
------------------------
COMMENTS Another little experiment the dreamer tried was with Horse
racing. This was ideal for experiments with dreams. Horses names are often
very easy to link to dream symbolism. The dreamer analyzed about ten races
before giving up. He owuld pick races with small fields and study the names
the night before of all the runners. The horse whose symbol would appear last
would be chosen. Interestingly two races were won by the same horse. In some
ways the dreams did link to the horse winning the dream yet the dreamer did
not realise this on either occasion. Yet the dreams did have enough psychic
content to make them interesting
--------------------------
THE FIRST DREAM The first time this horse won a race I dreamt that
I was looking at myself.
THE REALITY The race was won by a jockey with the same first name as myself.
I did not realise this before the race. The jockeys were not in fact even
listed.
THE SECOND DREAM I dreamt I was with the
horses trainer. He was in a pool and explaining how he was using a psychic
method to predict winners to horse races.
THE REALITY Before the race I did not really understand this connection. The
race was won by 'Portent' and I decided I should look for some connection.
The horse actually sounded like a real word(the dreamer did not know its meaning
yet felt he had heard it used as a word). I looked it up and surely enough
its a real word. It is defined as "an event predicted by premonition".
So it seemed as if the dream had predicted the races winner.
So in both cases the race was won by the same horse "Portent". In
both cases there were symbols which seemed to come true very clearly yet in
neither case did the dreamer make these connections before the race.
-------------------------------
THE DREAM I was at a bank of computers and discussing some problem
with someone who was my tutor. At the last minute I said do you know someone
called Peter Hide( I know someone called that). I said you remind me of him.
THE REALITY The next day the dreamer was
at a cyber cafe and whilst he was there a man he knew came in. The dreamer
pretended not to see him so I decided to just carry on with what I was doing
and ignore him. Just as I was leaving I did speak to him and had a small chat
with him.
THE INTERPRETATION Many people report dreams which seem to link to coincidences
that happen the next day. This dream was mostly symbolic. It included a setting
which was pretty much linked to reality. The character Peter Hide was clearly
symbolic and did link to reality on that the dreamer was caught in a situation
which involved 'hiding'.
Of course such dreams would not convince anyone who was inclined to be skeptical.
This dreamer had had several convincing premonitions. These less convincing
ones he is still inclined to treat as premonitions which capture some significant
emotion from the day before.
