I've had several unexplained experiences since childhood, including two involving what seemed like the same kind of craft. I don't want to get into the details, but the feeling of a continuing connection has stayed with me. Has anyone else tried to make sense of a pattern like that?
Have you had unexplained experiences that seem connected over time?

A repeated experience can feel connected, especially when the first one happened young and left a strong impression. That feeling is real, but it doesn’t by itself tell you what caused the experiences or whether they’re linked. You can talk about how they affected you without needing to settle on an explanation.

If you want to look for a pattern, write down what you remember separately from what you think it might mean. Dates or approximate ages, location, weather, what you could see, and what was happening around the time can help you compare the events later. Gaps in memory are fine too. There’s no need to force them into one story.

If the experiences or the sense of being connected to them is frightening, it’s reasonable to step back from anything that makes you more distressed, including meditation for now. Talking it through with someone grounded and nonjudgmental may help, whether or not you ever reach a clear explanation.
