I read your initial post just after Easter when my mom gave me a potted gift rose. I had no idea what to do with it, but I followed your advice to a T, and I was sad to watch all the blooms and buds wilt and die only days after I repotted.
premonition (plural premonitions) 1  A clairvoyant or clairaudient experience, such as a dream, which resonates with some event in the future. 2  A strong intuition that something is about to happen (usually something negative, but not exclusively).
Larry Dossey, M.D. explains how premonitions give us warning of the future, and how we can open ourselves to receiving and interpreting our intuition. Premonitions Are Extremely Common. They probably arose early in our evolutionary history because they provided our ancestors with a greater likelihood of survival and procreation. They were thus likely to have been incorporated into their genes and passed down through succeeding generations.
