Oh christ....its a fricken tarot card. I've never had a tarot read in my life. My religion prevents such readings calling them a sin. What on earth made my father say (in my dream) a word I've never heard is beyond me. Next week at the neurologist should prove to be interesting. I hope I don't lose my license to drive again. It was taken away from me for 5 months last year after they used a strobe light and induced a seizure. I can't go in a bar that uses strobes and I must leave a place that uses florescent lighting that flickers. I also can't go into a gym that uses a certain type of gas lighting. I was just talking about this topic with a person on this thread last night

Funny that I didn't relate the word pentacle with pentagrams and decagrams. It appears that 4 directional aether/spirit is the preferred method over the spherical method. I'm thinking back to a trip I took where I experienced intense deja vu. It wasn't just a one time occurrence that weekend. It kept coming as I passed places that I'd never been to and people I didn't know. In one day (a Saturday) I had deja vu at least 15 times and these weren't as puzzling as most Deja vu experiences are. I had been there before with the same exact people.

About 10 minutes ago I was overtaken with a metallic smell. When that happens I need to get up, take my meds (not meds like you're thinking - Epilepsy Meds)
Epilepsy. Yuck. Bad stuff. And the meds are no fun either.

and then start piecing together what took place. This doesn't happen much but when it does there's a sign to be unraveled. Anyone reading this would say I'm strange unless they have a close relative with the same affliction. The key is the metallic smell - I don't know why but my Doctor does. When it happens I have to journal it, tell him what I was thinking when the smell overtook me and explain what I think it means. I was on a boat fishing with people I didn't know ( I think I can reason that out ) and my mom was there waiting in the cabin. My dad was there too (vocally) but he was dead. He kept saying to cast the three of pentacles and I don't know what that means. I always fish with a 5 of diamonds. Now I have to find out what a pentacle is and why the number 3 means something. Sorry for being a weirdo but epilepsy + metallic smells equal a potential future event. I slept but I'm exhausted and when I awakened I didn't know where I was. We've held all but the metallic smells in check for a while now. Those smells are like a crystal ball and carry a great deal of burden because they're almost never wrong. Folks - please don't think I'm a weirdo. Epileptics all over the world report the same things. My doctor, family and friends always ask about this and in some cases have come to rely on it. I'm not claiming to be Nostrildumbass but there is a direct corelation between metallic smells and future events if you can find the pieces to assemble the puzzle. temporal lobe epilepsy is known as the gifted curse. I could tell you personal stories that would blow your pants off
Do you work this out in advance or in arrears? IOW, does something happen, then you work out why, or do you predict an event and it happens? Does the event involve you or is it something outside your life you have no control over?
