Do you think human intuition is real?

When I say human intuition I mean that were all connected through the universe in a sense and we can sometimes sense events before they happen..i dk kinda hard to explain

Personally I think yes, there's been a good amount of times where I'd be thinking about the most random thing and a little later I'll see it on tv or hear it on the radio or some shit.

There's been other times where I could just sense the cops were gonna roll up on us so I would dip and the people that stayed would end up gettin ran up on

I know you could probably just say coincidence but I it's definitely not, that feeling doesn't come often....maybe I'm just really high

Edit: since there's been some confusion as to which form of intuition is being discussed..I'm referring to the philosophical type where humans supposedly have an inner connection with the universe/world/and people that surround them. A good example of this would be a mother's intuition where supposedly she could sense if her child is in some sort of trouble or distress

By explicitly focussing on things you take a receptive-expecting attitude towards the future. This attitude only makes things more noticeable. You are not "predicting the future" nor is your intuition telling you anything about the future. For example, when I have just learned a new word then I retain what I have just learned and most likely have a (lingering) comportment to it. But quite frequently I start seeing the word everywhere. This doesn't mean I had a feeling this would happen (i.e. I was going to read those texts) and therefore had to lookup the word in the dictionary. There are many aspects and things in our lives happening that we "don't notice" because we don't take the right comportment towards it. I can for example go for a walk and come back home without having noticed that there were other people walking on the street. On the other hand, when I want to go out and meet people, I take a certain comportment to what I experience, and therefore 'notice' the people. I really don't think there's any magic behind intuition.
 
It would not suprise me, we are the universe. Maybe not in the way you are describing though. Basically I believe anything is possible in one way or another.

I love Phish by the way. SUPERBALL!!!

definitely not? i'm not sure how you could be 100% certain.

look at the number of variables in the universe just in the spacial relationship between things. add in the variable of time and the numbers are mind boggling. at this kind of scale, coincidences are inevitable.

Our untapped superconscious mind gives you the sense of intuition.
Imagine being able to use 100% of your mind.
Youd be able to tell the outcome of anythng with these "6th sense" abilities.

I'm not saying I'm able to predict the future..and I understand what you mean about like once you buy a new car you start seeing that same model everywhere you drive..it's not like that

Like I'll literally be thinking about the most random thing, what sparked this was yesterday was I was thinking about how a break in pool would look in reverse, and like 20 minutes later the show I was watching did exactly that

Or I remember another time I was on acid and needed a cigarette so bad to the point that I was literally visualizing finding s pack on the ground with one cigarette left in it, and I could like feel it in my hand...then after 5 minutes of walking I spotted s pack on the ground picked it up and sure enough there was 1 cigarette left...I couldn't explain it

I'm not saying it happens all the time, and I won't know about it until it actually happens, I'm not sitting there being like "I'm about to find a cigarette"

At first I did think it was just a coincidence, but when it continuously happens between 10-20 times over a span of something like 21 years I don't see how that many coincidences could affect one person especially since the numbers are astronomical

My synchro-mystical confluences occur with a particular word in my mind's eye
At that exact moment, i see a billboard, hear a song lyric,
or listen to the same word in conversation...
The improbability of the literal convergence is what astounds me...
I find i notice these synchronicities when im on the right path of intuition.
Sometimes it happens multiple times per diem...
Self fulfilling intuitive pro phi seas, eh?
 
^ what ?
i believe intuition is real ..
i can tell you guys a story that freaked ME out really bad ...

i went to eat dinner with my b/f at a dennys .. a few mins after sitting down i went to use the rest room, while i started doing my business( i was alone in the bath room )i started to have the worst thoughts rush through my head for no reason VERY VIVID i had a images of a guy with bad intentions walking into the bath room while i was alone finding me alone beating me and well not the best images , for some reason i couldn't control my thoughts they were scaring me so much that i RUSHED to get out and i swear this is the scary part as i was about to grab the door handle(literally about to grab it ) someone swung the door open and it was a FUCKING GUY a horrible looking scary guy with tattoos on his face i ran out and sat next to my b/f and told him what happened .. a few more seconds in the bathroom i would have faced my demons ! what he was doing there i dont know.. i didnt care.... i was glad i got out on time

now i know when ever that strange horrible feeling occurs, a prediction of something bad to come to follow my intuition and my instinct ..

all animals have an intuitive sense ! they sense when there is a bad person around with bad intentions or when there is a disaster coming. we have this also some more then others some dont have it at all

have you ever had that gut feeling that something bad is going to happen .. like a weird out of place feeling it doesnt have to be all the time . it can happen just once in your life time but that is your intuition your animalistic senses telling you something .. i would advise anyone if they ever have a bad feeling about something to go with that feeling ..i tend to notice mothers have this intuition with their children they tell you over n over not to do something that they have a bad feeling and that something bad will happen to you then BAM they were right ..
 
I think nihilists lack a certain sensitivity to these intuitions, or they disregard them intentionally, but I think it's certainly the case that humans can sense things, predict things, or provide strange warnings that they might not even know what they're talking about, yet it's applicable to someone, somewhere.
Pure materialism is one of the biggest tricks of the mind, especially because it seems to logical, yet it can drive you mad. It's better to just accept things that are being conveyed to you for whatever reason.
 
Of course it is real. But it is not supernatural. It is simply an expectation of what you anticipate is about to happen next based on the circumstances and all of your experience and knowledge.

you're adding 2 and 2 and getting 5 here.

you assume his intent was malevolent and that what you foresaw would have happened. there's no way of knowing and it's just as likely that he simply opened the wrong door accidentally thinking it was the men's room...

Much of the informational processing going on in our brains lacks reflection in explicit, methodically ordered consciousness, thus presenting itself as such 'gut feelings'. I think, though, what is novel about human intelligence is how such intuitions impel logico-conceptually ordered thought of which we become explicitly aware.

well put point right there.
it could be possible that these intuitive feelings only differ from explicit thoughts by the fact that we're not aware of all the processes our mind goes through in coming up with these feelings.
but
cuz we are so unaware of whats going on during pre-cognitive decision making, it could be possible that there are some methods involved that use some of our abilities for higher consciousness.
Food for thought.
