Anyone ever had these experiences...

Im a little new here, especially to this area of ATS, anyhow...

Every once in awhile I get this weird deja-vu feeling, I dont know if I would call it a "psychic" feeling or not but it kind of goes like this. Sometimes I know (have either dreamed about it or something) what will happen next in a given situation. An example of this feeling, and I have had quite a few:

Once, my fiance' and I were sitting outside awhile back and all of a sudden I got this strange feeling like I had been in the situation before and my eyes started feeling weird. Out of nowhere I told her "there is going to be a red car driving past us from the right hand side in exactly 4 seconds followed by a Silver car". I was not able to see the on-coming traffic so I was not "cheating" in anyway. Anyhow she started laughing and then 4 seconds later what I said happened, and it kept happening for the rest of the day.

There are many other times I have had this deja-vu feeling, and usually for around 1-2 hours after I get this feeling I can correctly predict what will happen within that 1-2 hour span, sometimes longer.

I hope I'm being clear with what I am saying as its quite hard to describe, its just like I know whats going to happen, but never with anything remotely interesting. Im not predicting big events or anything, but just hours and hours of pointless everyday things in life, and everything that happens seems like I have "been there before". I know exactly what people are going to be wearing before I ever see them and little things like how crooked their smile will be, what they are going to say next, etc.


Anyhow, no need to go on about this, but I was just wondering if everyone has this happen, because it seems like it keeps happening more and more to me. Im definitely not saying I have some "psychic" power or anything, but was just wondering whats going on.

what you describe, happens to me all the time. can't explain it, but you will get used to it.

I suppose so, but what is this called...is it "deja-vu" as I was stating or do I need to call it something else?

PS- Usually when I get the feeling something has happend to me before my eyes get a little hazy and I sort of just sit there and take it all in (sort of a mind wandering trance if you could call it that). Is there anyway to develop an ability out of this or do I just have to take it as it comes?

i am not sure, but one could call it a "state of deja wu" in lack of any better description. i have never experienced it as a haze, but the feeling of "it" has happened is so strong that it almost knocks you down(not literarely). the only advice i can give is that you'll have to take it as it comes. it is not like a premonition thing, you just know things has happened before. i don't know if you can develop any ability from it, as i neither know if it can be controlled. i have never tried that. or at least this is what i can say about me. if it is any different for you is up to you to decide or try out.

now sometimes deja-vu is just something that happens
other times it maybe your physic abilities going a little hay-wire
