So recently over the past week or so I've been watching a lot of videos on remote viewing, in particular interviews with Joe McGoneagle. I'm very fascinated with his story etc and have been wondering if it's actually possible for an average person to do this. Like I considered asking my gf to write a location on a piece of paper and I could see if I could have any instinct into what it might be. I never did because I thought it would sound stupid.
Anyway it's been on my mind a lot over the past week and this morning when I woke up at my girlfriend's house, this thought or maybe "vision" came into my head that my kitchen in my house (separate to gfs house)is flooded, and maybe I had left some water appliance running while I was out. Like I could see the floor of my kitchen with water pooling up. It only lasted maybe 5 seconds but I definitely saw it.
When I got home, my kitchen was flooded as a pipe had burst behind the countertop. I was astonished that my thought had actually come true.
Weird coincidence perhaps and I'm certainly not making any claims of any abilities, just thought it was strange and wanted to share.
This is precognition. Not coincidental. Your Consciousness is evolving.
Congrats! You experienced precognition. I experience moments like these frequently, so I’ve spent a good bit of time invested into the topic.
It’s important to make a small point. Remote viewing is a standardized set of protocols set up to gather information thats nonlocal in space time. Remote viewing is the set of protocols for interacting with “the phenomenon,” but it is not the phenomenon.
I recommend checking out Dr. Julia Mossbridge’s work on precognitive experiences. She has lots of youtube videos and a book, The Premonition Code. Eric Wargo is another PhD writing about precognition (check his book Time Loops.)
R/precognition is filled with folks telling stories identical to yours. Come join the club.
If anyone is wondering if psi abilities such as remote viewing and telepathy are pseudoscience:
Parapsychology is a legitimate science. The Parapsychological Association is an affiliated organization of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the world's largest scientific society, and publisher of the well-known scientific journal Science. The Parapsychological Association was voted overwhelmingly into the AAAS by AAAS members over 50 years ago.
Here is one of a half dozen peer-reviewed meta-analyses of ganzfeld telepathy experiments that all reached similar conclusions:
Revisiting the Ganzfeld ESP Debate: A Basic Review and Assessment by Brian J Williams. Journal of Scientific Exploration, Vol. 25 No. 4, 2011
There’s a lot in this analysis, let’s focus on the best part. Look at figure 7 which displays a "summary for the collection of 59 post-communiqué ganzfeld ESP studies reported from 1987 to 2008, in terms of cumulative hit rate over time and 95% confidence intervals".
In this context, the term "post-communiqué ganzfeld" means using the extremely rigorous protocol established by skeptic Ray Hyman. Hyman had spent many years skeptically examining telepathy experiments, and had various criticisms to reject the results. With years of analysis on the problem, Hyman came up with a protocol called “auto-ganzfeld” which he declared that if positive results were obtained under these conditions, it would prove telepathy, because by the most rigorous skeptical standards, there was no possibility of conventional sensory leakage. The “communiqué” was that henceforth, everybody doing this research should use Ray Hyman’s excellent telepathy protocol which closed all sensory leakage loopholes that were a concern of skeptics.
In the text of the paper talking about figure 7, they say:
Jessica Utts is a statistics professor who made excellent contributions to establishing the proper statistical methods needed for parapsychology experiments. It was work like this that helped her get elected as president of the professional organization for her field, the American Statistical Association.
Using these established and proper statistical methods and applying them to the experiments done under the rigorous protocol established by skeptic Ray Hyman, the odds by chance for these results are 11.6 Trillion-to-one based on replicated experiments performed independently all over the world.
By the standards of any other science, the psi researchers made their case for telepathy.
Take particle physics for example. Physicists use the far lower standard of 5 sigma (3.5 million-to-one) to establish new particles such as the Higgs boson.
The parapsychology researcher’s ganzfeld telepathy experiments exceed the significance level of 5 sigma by a factor of more than a million.
I've seen stranger things than this, so I believe you.
if you have any more experiences like this, I hope you'll share them.
You might appreciate my journey: Remote Viewing: The Intersection of Physics and Metaphysics
That is so cool! I used to have those, one instance I had a vision that I was driving in a heavy rain, the street that I was supposed to go through was flooded, so I had to take a detour, in the vision I entered the wrong street and ended up in a bus station filled with police. Next week I was coming back from a religious ceremony (Umbanda in Brazil, something like Santeria), it is like 20 minutes by car from my house, in the middle of coming back it started pouring rain, the tunnel I was supposed to go was flooded, i turn right to the nearest exist, ended up in a bus terminal, all the bus drivers looked at me, I look in the mirror and the police was arriving. After that it never happened again. Nowadays I only have some sort of remote viewing, this morning I had what it seemed to be a sleep paralysis, I started merging with my bed and "woke up" in my mother's house (450 miles from here), I was at her kitchen, she was chatting with my sister. I woke up and called her, my sister just arrived from her vacation from Rio, they spent the whole morning chatting at the kitchen.
It's trivial for almost anyone to do and sometimes get lucky. But even with consistent daily training and advanced tools like sensory deprivation tanks it's still a crap shoot on the best of days. It's a lot like trying to make out specific details while looking through a piece of obsidian. BUT It was taken seriously by the United States military, the Russian military, by the Ukraine, and Natzi Germany. They poured a truly exorbitant amount of our tax money into developing the tools and techniques we use today.
