Psi is usually subdivided into two aspects: extrasensory (remote) perception (ESP) and mind over matter (remote influence). Although they are related, here I will focus only on the former, leaving the latter for a separate article.

Psioneirology has been up and running already for 9 months and I have decided that it is time to perform a statistical evaluation of my precognitive experience.

There is quite a rich variety of mental states, including alertness, wakefulness, hypnagogia, meditation, trance, hypnosis, deep sleep, rapid eye movements (REM) sleep, lucid dreaming, out-of-body experiences (OOBE, OBE), and drug-altered states. One might ask, does extrasensory perception such as precognition and clairvoyance require getting into a particular one? Or is there any state especially favorable for inducing precognition and clairvoyance such that anyone could obtain on-demand precognitive/clairvoyant visions? It turns out that PSI can be experienced in most of these states, although one of them provides particularly good results.

There is more than sufficient bibliography proving the existence of precognition, clairvoyance, and psi in general, including in mainstream peer-reviewed journals. But why most people still doubt their existence?

There are several must-read books about precognitive dreams which I will review briefly below.

A number of people had premonitions about the Aberfan disaster before it occurred in 1966. That inspired the creation of the British Premonitions Bureau

Psioneirology’s database is a premonition registry. 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. It is worth having a look at their features in order to understand what is the cause of that lack of success. 

I have had several dreams, anticipating the coronavirus Covid 19 pandemic. They are mostly from December last year, before the coronavirus was even identified as a danger. I have had several more dreams this year, which also anticipated some events related to the coronavirus crisis.

After decades of studying this question, now I can say that I have a well-defined opinion, based on several books and articles with examples of premonitory dreams, guidelines by several people experienced in this field, and my own dream analysis.
