So glad that this post has brought up some good info and conversation on this point. Very grateful for the replies and discussion!
I think I’m learning about myself that … this is going to sound wild but I think it’s true more and more …
I’m not actually as interested in knowing the future with a given POI AS MUCH as I’m interested in knowing once and for all if ANYONE can actually predict future events. Or maybe that’s tipping the scale a little too far but they’re probably just about equal!
And that’s a huge reason why I’m like okay let me take explicit notes. Let me try this person. Let me try that person. I have a bit of an OCD side to myself and this is another behavior that falls into that category for me. But it’s special bc it also has all the emotional / loneliness element - haha soooo fun.
So - yes actually, I am not sure that ANYONE can predict the future. I’m still not really sure about empathic abilities because I would need to confirm that my POI has felt the thing that was said they felt at the time it was said. And that’s just not something I’ve been able to confirm although it does seeeeeeem to match a lot of times with what I know. So I think there’s a possibility for that to be a true ability.
Remote viewing? DEFINITELY. Don’t know how that happens and have only come across a small handful that are genuinely good at it but I have had a few people where it’s like okay definitely they can actually see or somehow pick up on this random thing.
But predicting the future???
Actually no, there is one person, Shelly, who is on ATA and I posted about before as well as a long time ago - I have absolutely had specific markers she had said happen. So that definitely counts as in this person predicted this would happen and it did. I’ll repeat an example. She told me I would have someone talk to me about walnuts - specifically cracking walnuts. And a couple weeks after the reading I’m at the dentist after having some work done and my dentist looks me straight in the eye and says “you should be fine but maybe don’t go cracking any walnuts on that tooth just yet.” I’m telling you I just about fell out of my chair. She also predicted that I would see a specific person by name (and not a common name) in an unusual place and a few hours later I saw that specific person walking down the street randomly as I drove by somewhere completely out of place where I would normally see her.
So! Yes, I think in that case I have to give her credit for predicting an actual event that happened in the future. But they were markers and what I actually asked about that was tied to the markers NEVER HAPPENED. So here’s the thing - I wasn’t asking about nuts. I wasn’t asking about this coworker. I didn’t give a crap about either of those things but they happened.
So this is where I start to wonder if the less we are attached to something the more likely we could be getting an accurate future prediction reading- in some cases. Honestly I think most people are complete fakes and good cold readers.
So what good is that though??? lol.
So that’s my take fwiw. But I am still calling people and testing things out and taking notes and collecting data on this. Because I am that darn stubborn I guess!
