What makes premonitions special?
I had a premonition that came true recently. I did not tell anyone about it. On reflection, it was not a terribly unpredictable event given the prior circumstances. But it still felt special to me. I had managed to predict a real event in the national news that no one else had mentioned as likely! That is the usually way with many premonitions. They tend to be reported AFTER the event. And the odds against them are not usually that amazing. But to the person reporting them, they are a special event. So next time someone tells me their premonition, I will remember that to them, whatever I may think, it is a big deal. It is something we should all bear in mind when dealing with witnesses to any paranormal event. 8 June 2009: It could ONLY be paranormal … People often say, if they’ve experienced something dramatic, that it could only have been paranormal or pure imagination! We now know that this is not true. Indeed, some less dramatic events may be far better evidence for the paranorma
