LARGE LIST--PATIENCE!
This page lists examples of one type of dream ESP: prediction, precognition, and prophetic dreams. I'm proposing no models or explanations here--just presenting a lot of dreams that seem to predict the future. They speak for themselves.
RELATED TOPICS: examples of ESP in general, mostly psychic dreams - telepathic and shared dreams - (CLAIRVOYANCE has no separate list yet, sorry) - pseudo-psychic dreams in which the confirmation of a psychic dream turns out to be a dream too - ESP and psychics in society and daily life: effects on personality structure (like boundaries), coping emotionally, denial, social prejudice, etc. - J.W. Dunne's "An Experiment With Time" - See also the full INDEX OF SUBJECTS.
The World Dream Bank has 1500 dreams and dream images plus 500 other pages on dreamwork and shamanism, creativity, genius, art, surrealism and fantasy. Unless otherwise noted, all material copyright Chris Wayan, 2001-2006.
