Precognitive dream statistics

By


When I started the Psioneirology project, I created an online database allowing anyone to record potential precognitive dreams. It did not reach a great popularity but it did alow me to study my own precognitive dreams. I had to remove the database after a total of 3.5 years of operation due to technical issues. In what follows, I present some statistics that I obtained after recording my dreams in the database for 9 months.

During the period from 21/04/20 and 28/01/21 or 282 days, I recorded 360 dreams in my dream diary (1.3 per night on average), of which I copied only 92 in the database (i.e. about 1/4th of all). 54 % of them, i.e. 50 dreams turned out to be precognitive ones, which is equivalent to one precognitive dream every 5 days. I had recorded 20 of these 50 dreams before the outcome (marked with DR→O ❤ in the database, DR standing for dream record, and O for outcome), while I recorded the other 30 after it (marked with O→DR).


There are two main reasons for this: I did not identify some of the dreams as precognitive ones before the outcome; others I did identify but did not record on time (before the outcome), partly because some dreams came true the same day after the dream. The following graph shows the number of dreams that came true after 0, 1, 2 and so on up to 13 days. As can be seen, the most frequent dream-outcome span is 0 days, followed by one day. After that, the probability of having an outcome appears to drop significantly, although quite a few (10) dreams have come true even after 3-6 months (comprised within the last bar, marked ">13 days").


Although these numbers might look extraordinary to many people, they are actually not. Bruce Siegel reported in his book Dreaming the Future that one out of every four of his dreams had come true. Moreover, according to his estimations, on average about 40 % of his precognitive dreams came true within an hour of his waking up! Other books like An Experiment with Time by British aeronautical engineer John William Dunne and The Oneironauts by NASA astronomer Paul Kalas also suggest a very significant frequency of dream precognition. In fact, Kalas reported an average of 37 deja vu experiences throughout a period of 8 years with a peak of 56 such experiences in one particular year. That last number is equivalent to 1 precognitive dream every 6.5 days, a result very similar to mine. Clearly, having at least one precognitive dream per week is something normal if one pays attention to his/her dreams and keeps a dream diary.

As to the topics of my dreams over these 9 months, there has been quite a lot of variety, covering coronavirus issues, natural disasters, fires, accidents, injuries, technology, art, and even TV cartoons. This is good news for the people who dread precognitive dreams believing they are all about death and disasters.

Psi, vital energy, and electromagnetism

By

Despite decades of parapsychological research, psi phenomena have not yet been convincingly explained in terms of modern physics, which is probably one of the reasons why the scientific community is still mostly disregarding them. In the past, it has been theorized that psi is electromagnetic in nature, its transmission occurring through some sort of electromagnetic waves. That theory has been abandoned. It does not explain phenomena such as precognition and retrocognition, nor have any such waves been detected in tests involving, for example, e.g. telepathy or remote viewing. Reviewing both academic and non-academic resources, one finds substantial evidence for the electromagnetic nature of psi, in particular in mind-over-matter type experiments. Some particularly experienced martial artists can voluntarily produce electromagnetic fields with extraordinary characteristics. These include field amplitudes high enough to cause the electrical breakdown of air (i.e. >30 kV/cm), volt...

Technical guide to telekinesis practice and theory

By

I have been asked several times to provide telekinesis training instructions. I do not think that this is something that can be resumed in a few words below a videopost, so that I wrote it all in a book. T he book is available on amazon.com  for a modest price. In the book, I provide a detailed, non-mystical description of my training methods, which can help both beginners and advanced practitioners. I also share various tools and aids that I have developed and found helpful in my practice. One of these is a directory of telekinesis practitioners, with links and short descriptions of their skills and strengths. Building confidence is crucial for telekinesis training, and watching other people's demonstrations is one of the best ways to boost your own progress. Additionally, I have included some technical and scientific information for those interested. Last but not least, I discuss the practical uses of telekinesis and telekinesis training. Beyond dev...

A brief history of premonition registries

By
Image
The idea of creating registries to record multiple premonitions before they come true is probably centuries old. In the last 50 years or so, at least ten such registries have been created but none of them has gained much popularity and currently only one of them is active.  BRITISH PREMONITIONS BUREAU (Dr. John Barker) In 1967, English psychiatrist Dr. John Barker established that registry following a carbon avalanche in Welsh village Aberfan that had killed over 130, mostly children while studying in the local school and the reports of many people that they or their children had foreseen the accident. Barker recollected hundreds of premonitions, in the form of letters, 24 of which really impressed him and he published them in a parapsychology journal [John C. Barker, “Premonitions of the Aberfan Disaster,” Journal of the Society of Psychical Research, 44 (1967): 169–181].      CENTRAL PREMONITION REGISTRY (Robert Nelson) This registry was ...
