Not sure if these two experiences happening two days apart recently are just coincidence or the sign of budding psychic ability.
Incident 1.
I had arranged to meet up with some people for coffee. One woman starts saying she thought she was going to be late. She hadn't been able to use her hair drier because the power went off at her place. I ask where she lives. Turns out she lives just around the corner from me. I ask what time this happened. She tells me 9.30am. Apart from the coincidence that we'd both washed our hair and that we unknowingly live just one street apart; here comes the wierd bit. That morning as I had reached for my hair drier I caught myself thinking it wouldn't work because the power was off. It took about two seconds to realise this couldn't be true because.... a) I had no prior knowledge that the power was off, and .... b) the radio was playing in the next room. I flicked the switch. My drier worked perfectly. I didn't think any more about it until the woman told her story.
Incident 2.
I had a dream I was talking to someone about how the garden shovel I own is not very good for the type of work I need it for. This is actually true. In the dream I go into detail saying the handle is too long and the other end isn't the right shape for digging. I explain it's only meant for shovelling dirt into a wheel burrow. The day following the dream I put the dog in the car. I have about 6 places within a short drive where I can walk him off the lead. I must have vagued out because I missed the turn and we ended up at my second choice. It's a lovely spot with a dirt path running alongside a creek for about a mile. As we walked something yellow caught my eye off to the side of the narrow bush track. I went over for a closer look. Lying abandoned, is a garden spade with a yellow hand-grip at the end of the handle. Picking it up I notice the length of the handle is just right.
Since then I've had quite a few intuitive hunches. I'm learning to trust them.
