ESP

[SweetMelissa]

Does anyone have or no someone who has ESP? I was always skeptical of it, but supposedly my great grandmother had it, and I think my mom does. She never talks about it much, but she always knows when something bad is going to happen, she's only ever mentioned it jokingly, but she's always predicted bad things happening. It's kind of creepy, just curious if anyone else has had any experiences with this?

Would that make me paranormal???

That's So Raven!

I seriously have lot of mental telepathy type moments, but not ESP per se!

I call it being "sensitive". I pick up on things sometimes, like other peoples vibes and thoughts in the grocery store or wherever. It's like I can feel their mood before I look at them. Once I described a friend's mother (who died when he was little) to him. That one creeped all of us out. I knew what Ashley's father would be wearing at her wake, too.

Sometimes they don't make sense, until after the fact. I had a horrible vision of my son in a casket, about 2 days before Ashley died. I was thinking then that I don't know how I'd go on without him....and a few days later I was helping her mother through it. I don't know if I got that vision to give me a small taste of what she could be going through...to better provide sincere sympathy.

Last January, I had a dream that I was pregnant - but that it was too early to have the baby....just that everyone was trying to "keep the baby in" Turns out, that night a friend went into false labor, and a day or two later, my co-worker went into VERY premature labor, and spent the next few months in the hospital until her baby could be born safely. (which she was, and is healthy - YAY!)

So yeah....I believe in it.

(and now everyone's gonna think I'm nuttier than a Christmas fruitcake, thanks Melissa)

Don't sweat it. We thought that a long time ago.

No..my paternal grandmother was prescient....and always just "knew" things were going to happen......

and she was right...always...

and yes, sensitive is a good word..Some of us just pick up on moods, vibes, whatever , more than other...I agree..

[pac7days]

ESP is one thing.....

How about this whole EVP thing?

Now that stuff freaks me out!!

[Prthd119]

Communicating with Spirits?

I dunno about that one....

But my 82 yr old father has started reading everything by and about Edgar Cayce...and is wanting to now try Astral Projection..

He also has 3 computers and is learning Linux...He says if you sit on the couch, you die...and you have to stay active......

Guess he's willing to try other planes to stay active in now...

I wasn't even going to open this thread but then I didn't know how to reply

What about spirits in general? Any close encounters?

Our house is 80 years old. One of the previous occupants daughters has passed, as has his wife.

We have an antique spining wheel-music box on the mantle. It had not been wound up and played in three years. In order to make music it must be wound and a wooden peg pulled out to allow it to run. Is started playing a while back and nobody had been around it.

My daught swears up and down that the clothes in her closet move at night. Yes, it was the passed daughters room.

And finally, I was pulling weeds from the roses Sunday, it was hot and not a breath of air was moving. All of a sudden I looked up and one of the swings on the swing set that was built for the prev. family started swinging. No breeze had come up and it was just one of two heavy swings

Creeped me out

[carolinagirl]

Never mind!

What about spirits in general? Any close encounters?

Plenty. Here's one that can't be explained away:

Staying at my ex's family's cottage in New Brunswick, Canada. Before going to bed, I was reading a book and drinking a glass of water. This was one of those beds with the bookshelf-type headboard, so I put them on top of it. I put the book (Stephen King's The Stand - pretty thick book) nearest the edge, about 4 inches from it. The glass went next to the book, toward the middle of the headboard. About 2 or 3 AM, I woke up to a loud, rushing WHOOOSH going past my head. A SPLIT second later, the glass goes SMASHING to the floor - I mean with force. The book never moved, and there was no way that glass could have gotten past it without knocking it over, unless it was picked up and hurled. My boyfriend slept through the whole thing, and I spent the rest of the night with my head under the covers.

I'll keep my swing, thank you

My grandfather always knew it was me calling before he picked up the phone...no he didnt have caller id either...sillys When my granmother went into the hospital, I woke up that morning knowing I should call her. And when I did she had been admitted in the middle of the night...when my brother passed, the guy I was dating at the time and my parents neighbor both woke up at the time of his death 1:13 and both said they felt like someone had sat on the end of their beds and thats why they woke up. My aunt had a phone number in her brand new phone book of her uncle that had passed away many many years before she got the book, and it wasn't in her handwriting... Spooky s***!

And finally, I was smoking weed...

I think you made a typo, but I fixed it for ya!!

j/k... my aunt/cousin's old house in Janesville WI, where a number of people have died over the years, has similar phenomenon... I was skeptical, until I experienced them 1st hand. Creepy, but invigorating all the same! And no, I wasn't under the influence of anything at the time, either!
