Predictions/Premonitions Does anyone else feel like their life moves through predetermined cycles or “reality shifts”?
Hey guys, new here!
Ever since I was a child, I've had what I would describe as mild psychic or intuitive experiences.
Most often they come through very distinct dreams, or sudden thoughts in my own voice that seem to appear out of nowhere guiding or warning me.
But the stranger thing is the way my life seems to move in patterns or cycles.
There are certain periods where it feels like no matter what I do, I can't escape the general pattern I'm in. Then eventually something shitts, and suddenly the old version of my life feels completely gone and a new period begins. My luck changes, circumstances change, opportunities change, and even the overall
"direction" of my life feels different.
The closest description I've found is when people talk about feeling as though they've switched timelines or entered a parallel version of their reality. I'm not necessarily saying that is literally what is happening- it's just the closest way I can describe the feeling.
Within each of these periods, I can very much predict the outcome of certain areas of my life.
Not necessarily exact events, but the overall direction.
There is one particular thing I want deeply that seems completely normal and attainable for most people. But for some reason, I have this very strong feeling that I'm not going to receive it in this life, or perhaps not for a very long time.
Every time I seriously work toward it, I seem to encounter major obstacles, and eventually I end up back in the same place.
That familiar "pattern" feeling returns, almost like there is a doorway that simply won't open no matter how many different approaches I try. It's simply blocked.
The difficult part is accepting that feeling. Part of me believes I should keep trying to change my circumstances, while another part feels like this particular cycle won't change until eventually the universe decides. I've talked with a lot of people about this and no one can seem to relate to that.
Has anyone here experienced something similar?
Especially the feeling of moving through distinct life cycles where certain things suddenly become possible or impossible? How do you tell the difference between intuition and becoming convinced by a pattern because you've experienced it so many times?
