Quite often and I get a feeling that can't be explained.

I've had premonitions since I became an adult. It's not a constant thing, however it's frequent. Sometimes good things, sometimes not so good, sometimes they are totally wrong too. It's bothered me for a while, so about 5 years ago I started telling my husband when I get one, I also have told just one friend about it and when the thing happens, she's a little freaked out. I don't understand it.

Yes I have. The most remarkable one I had was of Krista McAuliffe's death. I actually had a premonition of her husband, whom I had never seen before to my knowledge, speaking publicly about her death. After the shuttle exploded........I saw him speaking on TV.....and it was the same guy I saw in my "mind's eye" beforehand.

I've had a few similar experiences.........but this one was the most vivid.

Yes

Yes...several it is very disconcerting.

Yes, I had "feelings" like these for years. Sometimes they come true exactly how I "felt" them, but sometimes the happening has a connection but not exactly how I "felt" them. I have learned to pay attention...it is a bit disconcerting though.

I've had premonitions of family members who were about to pass away. Thankfully they were all elderly, had lived good and healthy lives, and their deaths were natural and not tragic. It's still a bit unsettling to have a premonition like that, though. I've also had good premonitions, some of which I'm still waiting to manifest. Those are wonderful to receive; you wake up on top of the world, knowing that you have wonderful things ahead to look forward to.

Yesterday morning I woke up from a very vivid dream that my DH had died of a "massive heart attack". < < those were the exact words I remembered from the dream. I didn't know what time it was, but awakened to listen for him breathing. When I didn't hear him, I turned over to discover he was already gone for the morning. I still can't shake that feeling but am praying that it was just a bad dream.

benzgirl ~ dreams are different than premonitions. They are our mind's way of working out our feelings about things in our waking lives. Here's what an online site says about dreaming of a loved one's death

Death

"To dream about the death of a loved one suggests that you are lacking a certain aspect or quality that the loved one embodies. Ask yourself what makes this person special or what you like about them. It is that very quality that you are lacking in your own relationship or circumstances. Alternatively, the dream indicates that whatever that person represents has no part in your own life anymore.?In particular, to dream about the death of your living parents indicates that you are undergoing a significant change in your waking life. Your relationship with your parents has evolved into a new realm.?If you dream about the death of a child, then it implies that you need to let go of your immaturity and start being more serious. As your child reaches certain milestones and grows into an adult, dreaming of their death may be symbolic of their own self-discovery, transition and transformation into a new stage of life."

Hope this helps. I'm sure the dream was really disturbing......but I don't think it's the same thing as a real premonition. Or at least I hope it isn't!

Thanks Emma. Sure hope that's right. Like I said, I still can't seem to shake that dream. : (
