At risk of sounding like an absolute loon...I have some questions. I have had a connection with something or someone that enables me to see, feel, know, hear, sense, or otherwise be aware of things that I guess most people don't. I don't really have the ability to do these things myself you see, it's more what I am allowed to see. I am allowed to see a lot, and for that I am grateful. However, I hear people talk about they have this ability or that ability...well. I don't. I do, but I don't.

I can ask that which allows me to see for an answer, and usually it is granted. However, it isn't just I dial up a number and there it is. It isn't like looking in a library either, because sometimes that which allows me to see nudges me or rather smacks me into what my future reality will be if I don't make the right decision right now. What is this?

It is disturbing sometimes. Down right scary at others, mostly because I know sometimes things will happen and I have no control over it. For example, on December 24th 1996 (when I was still Christian) I thought, "Oh I should call my father for Christmas..." but kinda tossed the idea out as I hadn't talked to him in years and had no idea exactly where he was. That night I had an awful dream of walking on a slippery Catholic Church roof in a thunderstorm. I was looking for my father as he hovered above my head. He was like a black silhouette just out of reach. No matter how hard I tried to reach him, I just couldn't. The last time I grabbed the tip of his hand for a second, but that was all. Then he started to float out of sight.

In my hysterics I slipped on the churches roof and landed, speared by the top of the cross that was on the second lower peak. I had fallen backwards and it speared me in the back. The top of the cross could be seen coming out of my chest where my heart would be. I woke from this dream sweating and crying. The sounds of my crying woke my mother. I told her I had to call my father right away even though the last time we spoke was 2 years prior.

I called 411 to look him up in the general locale that I last heard he was. Luckily, he was still there. He spoke to me only briefly. He was ill with pneumonia. He was expecting a new son. He was so glad I was alight and was sorry he couldn't talk long. Then he said, "Ya know I love you right?" I said yeah. Those words, I knew would be the last time he said them when he said them. Then he had to rest.

The next morning after the presents were opened, my aunt called. "I hope you're happy..." were her first words. "He's dead." What is all this? I was very confused. Who was dead. My father was dead? Impossible I just spoke to him. Why is it my fault? Oh that's what my mom said huh? Any way, he died on Christmas the day after my horrible dream that woke me and motivated me to call him.

I have never celebrated a Christmas since and changed my religion with in the next 6 months. This is one of the more powerful things that has happened to me. It isn't just limited to dreams. Really, any of the gifts other people posses I can temporarily borrow and have always been able to. I don't even borrow it form a person near me or anything, but from the thing that allows me to see. What is this? Why is it this way? Is this the normal mode of operation?

I attempted to reply to this the end of August, but then I ended up waylaid with a number of issues on my end. We've had computer problems, and at the time, it wouldn't accept my answer. Here's my answer, but clearly quite a bit later than I wanted it to be posted:

Oh, you poor thing. I'm so sorry for the loss of your father, and especially after such a terrible dream/premonition. It sounds to me as though you may be what's called a "spiritual psychic," in that you ask to "get" something, and if it is the right time, it will be granted. Or at times, you don't ask for it, but it is given, because it is important. I'm guessing the meaning of the premonition really was to get you to get in touch with your father, to be able to say goodbye and that you loved him. He was slipping away from you, the pneumonia or side effects (heart attack, etc) would be the equivalence in your dream to the falling back on the cross and being pierced in the heart. That's the area of the body, and it was your sign. You'd probably make a good healer one day, studying Reiki would probably be good for you, or some type of laying on of hands or other energy healing. A friend of mine is a spiritual psychic, and she comes to me all the time asking me questions for me to give her the pagan/wiccan answers to why things work for her the way they do. She understands her Catholic background, but she doesn't understand why things are the way they are, and how they could be, because in Catholicism, they shouldn't work that way. So, we understand each other in different ways, and we teach each other. Since you are new to this, it sounds like you are in need of some guidance, and if you haven't joined the psychic and seers network, that might be good for you here. Also, if I can help you in any way, just let me know. Your patron God(s) and/or Goddess(es) may be helping you with this instead of it being within you, as other psychics. There are so many types of psychics, and that is one of them.
Hugs and BB,
Jen :)

P.S. It's not a stupid question, and you're NOT a loon!!!
So I may have a patron God or Goddess? There was another incident when I was small. I heard it called bi location, but it doesn't seem right. It is being in a different time and place at the same time, but before the bad thing happens. Let me explain.

I was 8. My mother just abandoned me and some old people were caring for me. I was riding a bike. There was a curve ahead. On the curved I saw a 1940's ford coming at me and I saw nothing at the the same time. I swerved to miss the 1940's ford which wasn't there but only in my mind. As I swerved to miss the 1940's ford a 1970's chevy nova barreled around the same corner just seconds behind when I saw the ford. The ford hit me and I actually felt the pain, but the chevy only knocked me down from it's wind. I landed on the wet grass in both places a second apart. As the pain intensified in the ford place, I pulled further away from that place until I was not there and only in the present. I imagine, I would have died with the pain I felt in the ford place. Does this make sense? My friend said de ja vew...but I am telling you feeling like you are hit by a car and seeing two times at the same pace at once is not fun. I often see multiple times at once. It is disorienting. I will join that group. Please help me with the two times same place thing.
Ok, duh... first, we are in the seers and psychics group! LOL ;) I wrote that when I was soooooo tired!! LOL Oooops...

Oh, yes, you likely have a patron God or Goddess. He or She or multiples will come to you in time. You seem young, but I am only just beginning to get to know you, so I can't tell for sure, but you certainly seem to be beginning your journey. But you will learn about Him/Her/Them as time goes on, They will show you to Them, and with this time of ability, that's often how you get things, the way you are describing it, it's not your regular run-of-the-mill psychic. This is very spiritual, and much different from the norm, so yes, I'd say Someone is out there. Give it time. As you grow, you'll learn much more and find what you're looking for with regards to the God(s) and/or Goddess(es) who are helping you along.

But, what you experienced could be a residual haunting. What happens with that is this: an emotionally charged event occurs over and over again. It's sorta like an imprint on a CD, DVD, or video tape. You see it, but you really can't interact with it. However, since you did appear to interact with it in a way, it might not be that.

On the other hand, it could have been a sort of premonition sent to set things right from a past time. Something similar may have happened back in the 40's, where a little girl was seriously injured or killed by a car around that very curve, and you saw it/experienced it, but saw it in time to avoid the car that came around in the 70's or whatever time period you found it in. That's the most likely scenario in my mind, but some people may tell you it was a residual. With residuals, you could potentially FEEL something, assuming you have some empathic ability, which you may. It's hard to know until you really explore this better. It sounds like you probably do... I do, so it's easy to recognize in others. That's the primary part of my abilities is empathic.

It's also possible that you are the reincarnation of the child who experienced the initial impact, but that's very far-fetched in my mind. In 30 years of dealing with this, I've heard of that maybe once or twice. So, it's not my opinion that's the case, but it's always a possibility you can't deny. And only you can really be the judge of it. You have to consider the possibilities I've listed and feel out which one seems most likely to you to be accurate. And that may take some time. But that's ok, it's a journey, so no worries.

Hope that helps some, Hugs and BB,

The only thing I got was this: May be we are all the time at different times, and it was me at the same time in another time. Like all times are now, not like a linear thinking, but circular. Or may be something connected to me. It was like I was riding my bike though,with the ford. It was the late 80's when the nova almost hit me. It was from my view point on the bike. The bike I was riding in BOTH was an older schwinn. May be it has to do with the bike? I dunno.

I dunno about reincarnation either. I do feel it was me... but not me before. Me at that moment somewhere else in the universe.

It happens a lot. I am in the beginning of understanding psychic phenomena, but I understand other things a lot better. I have a had a lot of other strange things happen too.

We went past a state hospital once and I could see a patient hurting the staff in some tunnels under the hospital. Later I learned it was shut down from such an incident 50 years prior. Then I had a freak out where I though my husband was going to kill a man crossing the road. "Stop you're going to hit him!" and no one but me can see him. Later, when we passed through him I researched and found he died three years earlier on that cross walk at the exact time we were driving through. Sometimes it is like it is happening to me, and sometimes i just know. When ever I "just know" that comes from that which allows me to see. Not from me at all. The other stuff I don't get at all.

have been able to know stuff about people by shaking their hands, sometimes by hearing their voice, and occasionally with just a picture. Other times I will get a feeling when someone mentions a name. That is usually a warning flag. I have been able to wish for stuff or think, "ya know I would like to or I hope..." and it happens. I don't know how much is just dumb luck though. If it is a patron God or Goddess I sure would like to meet them. To say thanks.

The norse definition seems to fit...because it was a few seconds ahead

Well, I have a psychic networking website, and I'm not going to go and peddle anything around here, but I was teaching a psychic 101 class, and I was teaching some things not necessarily about this, but just about how to deal with what you are discussing. This is the type of thing we discuss there, if you are interested in broadening your knowledge. However, we discuss things like that in a non-religious way, so as to make it more user-friendly and universal. If you want to get the website from me, please feel free to send me a PM, I don't want to offend anyone here by posting it!
Hugs and BB,

My condolences for the loss of your father. Your experiences confirm that you are a “seer” into the unknown. Many people call what you are a sensitive, receiver or medium. I have been a Christian Witch for thirty two years. Christian Witchcraft is a polytheistic religion. (Pagan) We do not believe in the traditional Christian beliefs. Although we do acknowledge Christ’s humanitarian teachings.
Before I get into your concerns I would like to introduce myself. I am a professional psychic lecturer, instructor, councilor and investigator for twenty seven years. I use my gifts of psychic awareness to help bring closure to people’s lives involving, missing people cases and murders all over the country. I also help people with personal problems while instructing them on how to live a more non-violent humanitarian lifestyle through opening their own psychic channels and redirecting their negativity into creativity. Every single human being has the ability of releasing the psychic energy that dwells inside their human spirit. The key to Psychic awareness is human behavior.

Psychic awareness happens when we are off our guard but it cannot fully channel itself if we are experiencing negative emotions. Dreams and visions like you have are usually sent to inform a person of their higher power. The question you need to ask yourself is do you want to develop this gift further?
I was disappointed to hear you lost your faith. Many parishioners at my Unitarian Universalist church call themselves “Recovering Catholics.” I too lost my faith but found away to stay with Christianity by becoming a Christian witch. Please read my post under the Pagan Question in this group.
The symbols you saw in the dream you mentioned appear frequently in psychic awareness.
Falling off a church could indicate that you were questioning your faith way before you had the dream.
The cross going through your heart means your belief system was shattered. Your ideas about spirituality up to this point were being pinned down. The head of the cross represented the begining of a new spiritual journey. It seems the religion you were in was holding you back from your own spiritual growth.
The Christian cross itself (Not the Celtic one) is a symbol of death. All symbols and there meanings are created by a human beings imagination. In the Christian religion a symbol of death is used to display their faith in God. For centuries the cross has been symbol that has been used as a means of human execution for crimes, the same way the guillotine, hanging noose and electric chair has been used.
Many ask the question why is the symbol of the cross worn and praised as a symbol of faith? The answer to this may not suffice but it is an accurate one. The way a human being interprets the meaning to be is their own free will individual choice. Meanings of things can change with every person’s individual interpretation of what they choose something to represent.
You are a highly gifted women destined to use your gifts to help others who do not see with your own clarity.
If you choose to develop your skills, the road you are on will be long and hard. Good luck to you and blessed be. http://mariecarew.tripod.com
Dear Marie,
Thank you for taking the time to explain some things to me. I have been working on developing my awareness since this occurred. I haven't made much progress, and it is often times very scary so sometimes I try NOT to see. I have been trying to be brave enough to listen when I hear or know things.

The main thing is just knowing I am not alone. I am not going crazy. Even when I follow up and I see that what I saw or felt did occur later or was based in some past event it makes me worry. Right now I am seeing a lot of confusing images. I guess, I will have to figure out what it means.
The way in which one should be moving , do you know? It speaks of an unfortunate alliance, perhaps the underhanded business of the church, [ scandal ]. this speaks of a sudden calamity [ which was the death of your father] which has already come to pass. the events that took place in the dream should have and most likely already happened as you said this was old many years back . why does it trouble you so? it seems to me that you are still in conflict with your views and your beliefs perhaps trying to find a form of balance. its time to shape your affairs according, their will be troubles down the line. I do a lot of dream work and most of the time this is our inner self speaking with us and bring the unconscious to conscious but not many people listen, most of the time these dreams or symbols, and are not reconed with and brushed aside, as just wandering of the mind in sleep, when in some cases its the inner self speaking with the mundane self . to me that give us guidance and can and do tell us many things some perhaps are rambels , while others have much to say to us, some can even bring forth events in which the self has forgotten while others can be forth coming and even help us make decisions, so for me I don't displace or dismiss them as nothing . MP
well then perhaps she will bring closer BB
I agree with Jennifer !
