Journal Article
\But I Survived\: Dream Premonitions and Survivor's Guilt
2022
Overview
Introduction: In most scientific as well as popular literature on ESP phenomena, Psi is reasonably presumed to serve an adaptive function for the individual (e.g., Carpenter, 2012). Argument: I offer an alternative hypothesis about precognition in general and premonitions in particular-one that helps account for why, if precognition orients toward the individual's survival, premonitory dreams so often focus on tragic outcomes that in reality cannot be avoided. Through close examination of premonitory dream accounts and the circumstances surrounding them, including Samuel Clemens' famous dream of his brother Henry's death (Twain, 2010) among others, I will show that survivor's guilt is a common theme in premonitions and a likely key to understanding these baffling phenomena.
