AS spectrum and psychic talent
I get "vibes" from people. I always have been able too. That's why I could not get super close to people. If a person was in a bad mood or jsut a general bad seed, I would get a dense vibe from them. I've also been able to dream about future events. My neice was sexualy assulted twice and I dreamed about the events twice. The second time she was actualy raped and beforehand I dreamed the actual events of it. When I told my parents they told me not to joke like that. I was not joking.

I think many of us feel vibes. This secretary at my son's school has a dark aura around her and all I feel is negativity around her. It makes me uncomfortable when I see her and I even said something to the owner about her manner. The owner knows that she carries negativity around her and isn't crazy about her either.. but the owner is the only one who was willing to hire her (she is just way too nice) gee I wonder why that would be

I can tell you that being autistic doesn't interfere with having paranormal abilities. I've had moments where I was relatively calm, relaxed and in a peaceful state of mind, almost in a trance of sorts and have experienced a limited form of precognition. I have these moments that come in pairs. One is the moment where I connect from that moment to a similar moment in the future. It usually feels like deja vu. Usually I don't think much of the first of the pairs. It's just this surreal feeling, almost like I've stepped outside of myself for that moment. When the second event happens I recognize it as the event that I've previously seen.
So far it hasn't proved to be very useful. I can't force it to happen, it only seems to connect two similar events, and more often than not those events seem to be rather mundane. Though sometimes I do get to see stuff on TV (usually commercials), or read something from books (among other things) well before they're actually released/published. But since I don't always pay as close attention the first time around (during the premonition) I usually don't always remember all the details until the second time around (during the actual event). I am curious as to why the future event seems to be paired with a similar event I'm experiencing at the present.
I wish I could explain it better, but I don't feel like writing another 20 paragraphs followed by equally long replies to replies just so I can find the right words to use to explin things properly. I hope this will do.
Do you think that having an autism-spectrum syndrome would interfere with or prevent psychic abilities, of any kind?
For example, I'm wondering whether telepathy might best stem a keen, well-developed abilitiy to read nonverbal communication readily and accurately on a subconscious level, or whether it might be based on something else entirely. The former might presuppose that much of the AS community, for whom reading nonverbals is often very difficult or (like me) nearly nonexistent, might have a disadvantage compared to their NT contemporaries. The latter could mean that AS/NT wiring and psychism have no connection, and that psychic ability could show up in either with equal frequency.
Further, are there any psychic abilities that might work betterin an Aspie than in an NT?
What we have here is two cognitive styles each with its own advantages and disadvantages as a whole for the population as a whole.
And psi; as it is thus experienced by those two different kinds of minds.
The pros are that aspies have theortically easier access to alpha and delta and theta states than NTs.
The cons are its easy to get lost in a big universe.
Anything an NT mind can do automatically a high functioning aspie can probably learn to do faking it.
Its a matter of having enough knowledge and schema and making sense of things in different ways.
As far as psi goes, clearly something about me and how i am different picked me to be both high functioning aspie and very psychic.
how that psychic manifests is considerably less than say the guy whose doing online readings and isn't faking it.
Its also considerably more than 95 percent of the population.
There will always be an aptitude gap but i can turn the situation around and notice a difference worth capitalizing on and investing in.
for me later in life this is manifesting more and more as the ability to actually try to express things previously unexpressable due to the condition of the collective psyche.
most people are psi blind. thats what being trapped in a beta condition does to a person.
there are different types of aspies but most types of aspies relate to increased brodmanns brain conversations and thus drift farther faster out of beta into etc everything else.
My metaphysics as a system seems to be much better than people who claim to be telepathic. I have had a few telepathic moments in my life and they were mostly utterly bewilildering. lol.
Theres a reason for this; to get where i am i eclectily chewed through all the paradigms and then put it all together.
So I'm doing at best better than average because of the degree to which i have created a conscious system which yes in fact works- at least for me.
When that door opened at 24 or so, ....i mean...wow...
theres a whole world larger of deeper thoughts than most people ever know.
I think intuition is what animals have. They use their senses and their subconscious puts the picture together quickly and they know. Certain individuals are similar. So many things are going on that you are not consciously aware of but who's to say you are not aware on a subconscious level? It seeps into your conscious mind, people refer to it as intuition. Just because apparently, we do not consciously interpret cues doesn't mean that we don't subconsciously interpret them.

I think that I have similar experiences Ningyou, where at times I sudenly think what it is like I have had this happen before and I kind of remember having the feeling in the first place but nothing definet. I think I have an ability but when I try to use it I can not even interpret my feelings. A while back when I was sick and could not move very fast due to low energy, I seemed to have increased ability, I whent to the shops and it was like I knew exactly how to move and stuff. Like I had a suden thought of something and it then came up over the speakers and I could tell where things were.
I feel like I have it but I just can not understand what the signals mean most of the time. Though I have had some times where I have thought about a person and they have happend to ring or something.
