Due to being more open to the energetic world, people with strong intuitions can purportedly often sense the impact of impending, large-scale disasters long before the events occur. In the case of Mr. Edward, his intuition began to pick up signals in the summer of 2001, when he entered the lobby of the World Trade Center.
He immediately felt intense sensations of depression, loss, and grief, and an immense aversion to entering the building that lasted several weeks. His feelings only subsided after he reached the understanding that his openness about the afterlife, mourning, and healing would help people who would be directly impacted by the attacks find solace.
