2. That is just *too* weird! I never fail to be amazed at these things.
I'm really sorry that Pink Tiger was right, but I congratulate her on her accuracy.

(I want that lottery number too, okay?)

3. I'm terribly sad this was true too, and wonder in what kind of spirit
this prediction was offered? I will decline any congratulations, and save my efforts for prayers for this country. We will need them. The fifth night isn't even halfway over.

I apologize for my negativity, but there is clearly no victor today.

5. I do understand. I can tell this has been very hard on many people
I was a Kucinich supporter who switched to Edwards and had my republican Mom convinced to vote Edwards too. I don't have a clue what is next.

I think we should ask PinkTiger what we can expect now since she saw that coming. I am only grateful I didn't see the post about this in August. :(

6. No there is certainly no victor
but for her to nail the date way back then is remarkable.

I'm sad about this too.

I heard him speak earlier in the week on NPR about being ignored by the corporate media due to his anti corporate stance and my heart ached for him.

That was when I learned about these bozos going after Kucinich's congressional seat.

8. well, it's the day after the South Carolina primary
and that would be a deciding factor for Edwards. But to know he was going to lose SC - pretty remarkable...

9. Wasn't the South Carolina primary on the 19th? (Saturday)
The Florida primary was yesterday, I think.

10. South Carolina strangely split the primary.
The Repubs voted on the 19th. The Dems voted on the 26th.

Weird.

11. Actually, I meant the 26th -- that's weird.
I was basically trying to say that the primary wasn't yesterday as Kineta had said, which is still the case given that it was on the 26th, so I don't think that Pink Tiger's correct call could at all be attributed to logic. (Which wouldn't have been the case if the primary had been yesterday.)

(Thanks for the correction, stella. :))

So - how did she come up with the 30th then?

I don't see her on this thread spilling the beans. And *how* 'bout those lottery numbers while she's at it ;-)

19. Hi - I just saw this, and I'm checking in here.
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 11:21 PM by PinkTiger
I offered this prediction with no set agenda.
I don't even remember it, to be perfectly honest. I was in a trance state.
I can't help what I see, folks. It is just there.
This is the only forum I feel honestly free enough to express myself in, so please don't be mad at me - don't shoot the messenger. It was written before by an unseen hand, so to speak. John Edwards did a lot of good during his run for the White House, and today when I watched him give his speech, it made me cry.
I really feel sad that he was unable to continue. He is a good, good man.

on edit: I also want to say, for those of you who were backing John Edwards, that I take no joy in being correct here. I also take no credit. I've been wrong before; I've misread what I thought I saw.
And, concerning lottery numbers, I have (I admit it, OK?) tried to do this with the lottery. What I get is nothing. I also get a message, sorta, saying that this is not my path. My greatness, if I should ever get to have any, will come later in life and be something totally unrelated to money or psychic phenomena. I think I have to go back to graduate school and get a PHD in public policy. That is what I've been told. After that, I will get my name on a building. I even know where the building will be. But big deal, I'm thinking. By that time I will be so old I won't care. LOL.

7. That's remarkable Pink!
Congrats! I'm wondering whether Mercury retrograde will have any bearing on this news.
When it goes direct again in mid-February and then crosses this point (23 degrees of Aquarius) again in early March...well I just wonder if the 'fat lady' has sung. I don't know, I just have a funny feeling about it all.

Or even before.
I don't believe the brokered convention will happen - a clear winner will emerge.

14. That's amazing, and thanks for the find.
I think one of the most difficult things for psychics to predict is a specific time, or date in the future. For some reason, when a person gets a psychic vision, they can clearly see the event, but it seems a specific time or date is very difficult to pin down.

So if Pink was able to pin down a date, she is very, very talented indeed.

Edwards - conceding
It was just a matter of time before J. Edwards conceded. The Shadow government is fearful of him, more than any other candidate, which are just puppet "rulers" they will go along with the power structure now in place. They would never have accepted a man of the people.
Plus, I don't believe Americans are ready yet for real democracy. I think we're still hanging on to our illusions, not really willing to give up our dependence on fossil fuels, and a life style which we've become accustomed to. Even though it's getting more and more difficult (and costly) to keep living the way we do.

But with enough suffering, we'll be ready for some changes.

In another 5 to 7 years, we'll get another John Edwards and then we'll be ready. That's my prediction.

here without judgment and/or competition. I have had some impressions that have come true, but I've been hesitant to post anything because of this type of judgment. It would make for a more interesting read if we all adhered to this rule.

32. Of course. That is my point.
I only posted my prediction because I wanted to see what other people might think of it; I never expected to have one create such a firestorm. It isn't my fault that Edwards bowed out; I certainly didn't cause it.

38. Lol! Don't blame her a bit. Since I didn't get a response to my
question from BlueIris I did a little search for her posts and really enjoyed reading them.
Fascinating stuff! Wish I hadn't missed her presence here. And I almost posted some of those old threads here, but decided that wasn't appropriate considering she's not here to discuss or defend them, and in lieu of the contentious feelings surrounding politics and other subjects.

I would, however, highly recommend doing your own search and enjoying her stuff privately if you also missed out on her time here at ASAH. And Cassie, if you're reading this...THANKS! :hi:

44. Just so everyone knows this was not posted to hurt anyone
I know that Edwards getting out is heartbreaking but I do not think anyone has bad intentions here.

This was probably posted too soon after the announcement of his departure but since this is an alternative group I felt that we could all appreciate the gifts of someone else.

My apologies for upsetting the applecart.
As far as Cassie, I wish things were different but this is reality, she isn't coming back, at least for now.

If you feel like changing the world it still isn't coming from outside of ourselves and if we can't keep the animosity out of here it won't happen anywhere. Good luck and much love to all of you.

I don't understand why everyone is so upset with me. I didn't call attention to my own prediction, and I really don't feel there is any reason to be so hateful. I'm beginning to think I need to absent myself from this body, at least as a poster, until the general election is over.
I can tell you all would rather I not give you any further visions. So I will keep them to myself, beginning right now. Good luck everyone - have fun with your little group here.

I don't think anyone is upset with you, nor do I feel anyone would rather you not share any further visions.

Quite to the contrary, I think we're all really wowed and impressed with you targeting the exact date of Edwards' withdrawal.

Of course you do as you feel is appropriate but rest assured your contributions have been a delightful addition to the group and will always be welcome here.

The whole issue just reeks of a Mercury retro misunderstanding under a still wobbly Mars to me.

Hope you will reconsider.

55. Some thoughts......
First of all, Pink Tiger, I for one enjoy your forthrightness and your visions and all the rest. :pals: What ya see is what ya get.

I was thinking the other day while looking over the usual roller coaster of emotions over the candidates in the various forums - "what an odd place for a forum on spiritual aspirations, right in the midst of all this political contentiousness". It was almost as if I had to push my way through a brawling mob in order to enter this forum space, and then when I got here there was a similar undercurrent...though not as overt.

For many who get completely absorbed in the politics and combativeness of the other forums (and I'm not excluding myself...even now I get sucked in), this forum has been a refuge from all that, to lick wounds and find some comfort and take a time out. But now it seems that same contentious energy has seeped into this forum and become divisive. How can we resolve this? As OhioBlues says, if we can't work these small things out amongst ourselves, how do we hope to improve things "out there"?
Pehaps we can get some practice in how to deal with such things by using this very issue as a springboard.

I have seen this forum go through a complete breaking up over non-political issues too. So perhaps "political contentiousness" is not the only issue. In fact, focusing on any one issue misses the point. Issues come and go, but how we want to BE in this world as individuals and as a community might be a more productive place to focus our attentions.

And I also understand that 'groups' in general are an organic living thing that go through changes as various individuals come and go, values or the center around which they are formed changes, etc...they have their seasons and cycles like anything else.

Finding ways for those organic systems to work for everyone is quite a challenge, and we certainly aren't the first group to face these challenges. And our communities can only be a reflection of who we are individually and collectively at any given point. So where are WE?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that growing in consciousness is, for this group, a central focus, a priority, and key to our individual and collective purpose, and is ultimately what brings us together. If that, rather than any one issue, is true then how can we nurture that in ourselves and each other to keep that central purpose?

So can we turn this 'problem' into a learning tool and discussion?

50. OK - I was just pissed for second. I'm over it now.
Thanks for the kudos; however, please know that I don't want you to be impressed with any accuracy. That was really unplanned on my part, to be so accurate, and I do not know why I pinpointed it the way I did. I don't even recall posting it. (LOL - psychic blackouts and I wasn't drinking, really)......
But I think I'm going to weigh my words very cautiously for awhile, anyway.
I don't want to end up like poor Jeane Dixon, LOL

53. She got lucky with one prediction, back in the 60s.
She was never so accurate again, and her credibility was in the toilet. Of course, she was trying to make a buck and a name off her predictions. It is important to remember that even a broken clock is right twice a day. LOL

54. So pleased that you reconsidered.
I've posted this link a bunch of times but your early post reminded me of it again and perhaps you didn't see it.

http://www.sedonadigitalarts.com/html/video_previews.html

I was reminded of it in the sense of drawing together our communities (even those over the internet) for sharing support given the transitions we are likely to face over the next several years.

And really don't feel as though you have to type on eggshells around here. We rarely crack and wouldn't want your flow of consciousness to be at all impeded.

56. Thank you for the link!
I appreciate your words.
This is not easy, having this - this- whatever it is thing I have.
Just now, for example. My daughter and my husband and I are leaving this afternoon for Kansas City, and I thought I'd call her and find out where they were (they are coming to my office) and it suddenly hit me that her mother-in-law was in the hospital in intensive care and had had a stroke.
When she answered the phone, she said, "Guess what happened? Donnie had to take his Mom to the hospital, and we think she had a stroke."
Of course, we are still going to KC, because she has to take her infant son to a doctor there (nothing serious, just a check up) but how horrible for me to know more than I can tell her. I know this is very serious and maybe won't have a good outcome. What do I do? I am helpless. I didn't cause it. I didn't make it happen. But I knew it, somehow, in that instance between dialing the phone and her answering it.

I don't know what it is. I sometimes really hate it. It has been happening to me for years, and I didn't ask for this, and I didn't want it. The first time I remember it happening to me was in 1968, when my father walked across the room and I realized that he had a really bad disease that was killing him, slowly, and we wouldn't know about it for a few more years. It was like a cold dagger in my heart. He died of Parkinsons disease 20 years later, after 12 years of suffering; his was the type that mimics Alzheimers. In 1968 we didn't know it, and it would be 1974 before we did. I didn't want to know that then.

Well, enough ranting. I'm off. Have a good weekend, everybody. I have my laptop but will use it sparingly.

57. I'm so happy you decided to stay (long post, sorry)
First, let me say I hope that your daughter's mother-in-law is OK and I am sending good energy to her. And a shout-out to a fellow midwesterner--I was born in Kansas City and lived there until I was 34 years old.

I seem to have a gift as well, although it comes in waves, hit and miss. I have been right about many of my predictions but wrong as well. I hope you continue to post your predictions. I have admired your courage in posting them here. I am trying to get up my nerve to do the same.

When I was around 7 years old I remember the phone rang (two different times) at our house and I knew that the phone calls were telling me that my grandfather had passed and my cousin had passed. I didn't think much of it because my grandfather was old and sick and my cousin had cancer.

When I was 16 I had a dream about attending my uncle's funeral. I brushed it off as nothing. The next day in the car my mother said my uncle was going into the hospital for a routine gall bladder operation--I had no idea he was going to the hospital. Complications arose and my uncle died within the week. That one shook me.

But when I was in college, I dreamed that one of my friends from high school had been killed in Viet Nam--he came home safe and sound a few months later.

I am pretty good with droughts--in 1991 here in California we were having a terrible drought. Some of the people who worked for me were standing around discussing the water rationing we were under at the time. I said "It's gonna rain in one week." I had dreamed it. Sure enough, one week to the day the skies opened up and it rained for a solid week and no more drought. To this day, those people think I'm a witch of sorts. This year we were in another drought. As I heard the weatherman tell us we had had zero inches of rain in one year, I told my husband--"We're going to have a wet year." We are having a wet year with 3 more months to go in the season.

My own father who is 93 and in assisted living with dementia has been more difficult to predict. I have felt at least 3 times in the past two years that he would pass. But he is still going strong and actually getting better.

My husband's deceased father hung around me for years with messages for the family that turned out to be 100% true. His final warning was about an illness for Rick's brother (true) and that Rick's mother was going to be very sick--she had cancer (this was about a month before her diagnosis) and died within 12 months.

The frustrating part about all this is that when you do predict one thing, then everyone assumes that you can do it 100% right all the time. Why is that? It's like with the psychics that we sometimes critique here on DU--if they are wrong just once people say they are phony.
It's not like that with any other profession--people are allowed to make mistakes. It seems I get my best accuracy with dreams and that I'm not as good with my immediate family, or with things that really matter in my life. I think that is a self-protection device for me.

Have a great weekend!!

58. Okay
I know all too well how awkward it can be.

Though I have had visions since I was quite young of past lives and alternate realities, my first overtly prophetic image came when I was about 18. In a dream I saw the funeral of a red haired cousin. I had six of them. Four of them are now deceased way before their time.

At the time, I had lost one, another was not yet born, and the other four were around my age. I knew from the dream which branch of the family would experience the loss so that narrowed it down to three. One was still in junior high. I didn't see him as particularly vulnerable. One was two years younger than me and shared my birthday. The other is three years older than me.

I called their house and didn't know what to say. . .like. . ."don't leave the house for the next six months" or something. . .? So I hung up. It was long before the days of call waiting. I cried for several days.

Then after attending a performance in a nearby city at about 2 in the morning, instead of going to my apartment, I was guided to go to my folk's house in my hometown.

About 3 miles north of their house, I saw the ambulances and cop cars. My uncle's house was lit up like a Christmas tree at that time. They are long term horticulturalists (aka early to bed early to rise folks).

I got to my folks' house and tried to sleep. Then the phone rang relatively early in the morning and we learned that the cousin who shared my birthday was gone. I spent a good deal of my childhood with him and his older brother.

I had to share the news with all sorts of people in my extended family. I was amazingly solid as a rock in doing so, having already gone through my emotional purge.

The whole point of telling you this story is that, months later, I was harboring more than a modicum of guilt for not having been able to prevent the tragedy. I spoke about it with a Jungian. He wisely said something like, "sensitive people are forewarned of tragedies so they can process them before they happen and be stronger in the moment."

That statement gave me great solace and acceptance as I hope it does you.

Peace and may you have a great weekend as well.

60. Yes. Keep them coming!
I can't make a vision happen. They come when I'm least expecting them. Usually when I'm relaxed. And lately, I'm having more dreams. But I don't trust my dreams. They are never accurate.
