Premonitions and Intuitions

Many individuals report experiencing premonitions or gut feelings that indicate an event before it occurs. These feelings might manifest as dreams that later become reality or intuitive decisions that seem irrational at the moment but make sense in hindsight. Such occurrences suggest a deep, often unacknowledged connection to future events, prompting questions about how our subconscious may operate. The prevalence of these experiences demonstrates that feeling uncertain does not undermine the validity of intuition, pointing to a possible unexplained aspect of human perception.
