Famous Psychic Dreams

The last blogpost was about déjà vu and precognitive dreams, this post will be about famous psychic dreams, those well known personalities that dreamed of death, tragedies and happenings. To get to know more about the topic I will be telling about the difference about deja vu and psychic dream. deja vu is repetition of the same experience it can be not the exact same detail of what happen from the past to what happened in your experience, the past can either be a dream or something that really happened to you while psychic dream or precognitive dream are dreams that appears to be predicting the future.


There is an article in the internet from the site world-of-lucid-dreamings.com by Rebecca Turner entitled "Precognitive Dreams". In this article the author talked about first, what is precognitive dream and gave an example of a girl who have dreamed that she is pregnant and after three weeks she discovered that she is. And also in this article, it is told that before the titanic sank hundreds of people already reported that they have dreamed of it sinking.  And tackled some of the most famous physics dream.

According to Robert Todd Carroll, author of The Skeptic's Dictionary, "having dreams that predict the future is all a numbers game: there are 6.5 billion people on this planet, each having an average of five dreams per night. In turn, those dreams support multiple dream themes, such as sinking ships or airplane crashes. It is therefore highly likely that many thousands of people will dream about a sinking ship on any given night."

As Robert Todd Carroll said. There really is a huge chance that most of these people who have dreamed of the titanic sinking is not a big deal at all, and I also remembered the famous line said about the ship  "Not even God himself could sink this ship." - Employee of the White Star Line, at the launch of the Titanic, May 31, 1911. In my opinion, this statement made it more possible to people to have a precognitive dream about the ship sinking.

In 1865, two weeks before he was shot dead, Abraham Lincoln had a psychic dream about a funeral at the White House. In the dream, he asked someone who was in the casket and they replied, "the president of the United States". He told his wife about the dream but neither of them took it to heart - for on the night of his assassination he gave his bodyguard the night off.

To dream of your death is really scary, but we cannot be so sure about what will happen.  After all, a dream is just a dream, we all know that dreams don't happen exactly like what will happen in reality and dreams are just too abstract so it's hard to say if we will take it serious.
