Ever since I was 13, I have had this strange ability to vision certain happenings in the lives of those around me, through my dreams . The reason I am writing to you is that I don't understand how this gift is possible or how it works. All I do is go to sleep and I have "visions" of things that seem, at the time of the dream, to be real-life happenings (as if I am really there in full color). Days or sometimes even months go by without anything happening, that match my dreams. One situation took over 3 months for the "vision" to become a reality.
Here's what I envisioned ... In October 1995, I saw myself standing on a corner watching traffic pass on a main street (in a dream). As I looked to my left, I saw a white car with a young man driving, start to cross into the on-coming traffic, at an intersection. As the car continued, I watched a white truck crash into the driver's side of the car. For a moment I felt my body turn numb and I could feel the fear and pain the driver of the car was going through. It seemed as if it was only seconds after I saw the crash, I woke up in a cold sweat and breathing heavily, as though I was having an asthma attack (I do not have asthma).
One day in December, I decided to drive to the store. I drove out of my driveway into the street and made a right-turn that lead to the intersection of the main street. This is the same intersection that I saw in my dream. Since I drive this road alot, nothing seemed out of place to me, but I did think of that dream I had a few months back. Like the dream, I was signaled out into the on-coming traffic, by a woman who was going in the opposite direction I was going. I looked to see if there was anyone coming and when I saw it was clear enough to cross, I pulled into the intersection. I barely had time to look to my left and see a white truck crash into my driver-side and hearing his breaks locking up. When the truck hit me, I was thrown out of my seatbelt and into the passenger-side of my car, where I cracked my shoulder blade. I was afraid and in pain and numb at the same time, because as all of this was happening, I knew I had already seen this happen in my dream three months ago.
This is only one of hundreds of situations I've encountered throughout my life. I know that this story seems to be made up and if someone were to tell me this story, I would think that they were trying to get attention or something. The fact remains that I am able to "vision" things months, weeks, or even hours before it happens. Not all of the "visions/dreams" are dramatic. I feel strange and I don't know if I want this ability, but sometimes I am thankful that I do posses the ability to see things, in my dreams. I think that someday my "visions" may save a life or something.
I don't know if you can give me an answer to what I am able to do, but if you know of anything similar to this, or if you know what it is that creates these strange acts of "de'ja vue" in my life, please let me know. If I am able to control this ability/gift, can you tell me how to control it so I could use it for good things. Most of my "visions" come to me when I am faced with a stressful situation, prior to going to bed. Please write back and tell me what you know about individuals who can see things in dreams ... like I can.

Thank you for sharing your experience and of your unique ability; with us, with readers interested in acquiring an understanding of the supernatural/paranormal phenomenon; and with others who share similar ability like yours. We have read, heard of or had seen television coverages of individuals who posses the same type of ability that you posses, but we personally have not encountered anyone such as you.
With the assistance of "our friends," this is what we learned about your ability/gift. As you come to understand, accept and refine your ability/gift, you will be able to foresee upcoming natural disasters. Lives will be saved because of you and others like you.
As the saying goes, "practice makes perfect," holds true for all of us because we all posses some kind of ability/gift. However, not everyone are able; to recognize, understand, accept or apply their gift. This is due to the individuals, themselves, i.e., lack of understanding, afraid of what could become evil, afraid that people will say negative comments about their ability/gift, lack of focus and application. Those that do recognize that they have something special will be of great service to all of mankind, and will be widely seeked out for assistance.
You must continue to have your "visions." You did say that you normally have a "vision" when you are stressful prior to going to bed. When the "vision" occurs, occassionally practice modifying your "vision" or projecting yourself to situations that deal with natural disasters. If this proves difficult don't force it, let whatever "vision" you are having play itself. Also, practice having your "visions" when you are not stressful, to see if this produces a different kind of "vision." The key point here is to experiment and see where it takes you. Document your efforts and keep us informed.

Thank you for your response to my letter. I woke up this morning with a strange dream, maybe you and your staff can decipher it...
I'm walking through a desert but there are buildings that are halfway destroyed. I can feel alot of sadness and pain though there was no one around. The sun is shining and there is a bright glare, like the sun shining on a tin roof or something. I could almost smell what I can only describe as burning brush, but there are no fires. I could see children playing in the far distance but there are no sounds coming from them. I wake up to the sound of an aircraft flying overhead. Can you tell me what I saw?

I have been having an incredible urge to talk to you of one of your entities who I believe answers, in some way, to the name Christopher... I have dreamt of him as a young man in his early 20's, who has been seeking help from the living in order to solve... or bring an answer to... his death is the late 1940's. Perhaps I am speaking to the wrong people on this topic, however my gut feeling keeps me drawn to your site. It's as if Christopher has been calling to me somehow, in some way. If your entity is around 22 - 23 years of age, and is named Christopher, please pass this information on.
Reader's vision of Christopher:
You are the reason I have my visions and I understand how you feel. It was un-nerving to visualize what you encountered as a child and the events that unfolded around you the weeks before your passing. I woke up in the middle of the night to the sounds of guns shooting in the streets and the sound of a car racing down the street away from your windows . "It wasn't supposed to happen like this, we both understand you didn't know what they were fighting about. It it will help you move on and leave this pain behind, think of this... your passing was not for a bad reason. No one hated you and you were only in the wrong place at the wrong time. It you truly feel that you were wronged by losing your place as one of the living, consider how much you have been helping me during the time I needed you. You are the reason I chose to use the name "Michael Christopher" as my signing name to "Otherplane." If anything, for what it's worth... thank you for being my guide".
Mon, 20 Oct 97, Otherplane's reply to reader's vision of Christopher:
Michael Christopher, the entity that you speak of named Christopher is "not one of our friends." The entity was a male of 19 years old when he was accidentally shot, around 7:00 PM, on July 4th 1949. Your visions have nothing to do with your entity friend, Christopher. All of your visions are "real or will become real." Christopher simply chose to be with you. Christopher is "releaseable" and if you choose (as we hope you will) to release Christopher, we will do so. Even after Christopher has been released, you will continue to have your visions.

With the assistance of "our friends," we do have knowledge of your vision/dream... but "our friends" would "not allow" us to print the information on our web site/this web page. We do encounter what we refer to as a "temporary halt" on certain topics that "our friends" consider to be critical in nature. When "our friends" feel that the time is right, they will let us know.
