1 |
[ noun ] (psychology) a prophetic vision (as in a dream)
Used in print (Nathan Rapport, ""I've Been Here before!"...)Most psychiatrists dismiss these instances of that weird feeling as the deja_vu ( already seen ) illusion , just as they dismiss dream previsions as coincidences . Occasionally there are examples of prevision which cannot be pushed_aside without confessing an unscientific attitude . Dreams present many mysteries of telepathy , clairvoyance , prevision and retrovision . The degree of circumstance , the ratio of memory to forgetfulness , determines whether a dream will be a recognized , fulfilled prevision , or the vaguely , effective source of the weird deja_vu feeling . Probably less_than one_percent of our previsions escape final obliteration before we wake . |
