A few days prior to the Northridge, CA earthquake in 1994 I had a precognitive dream about it. It would have been interesting to see how many others had the same experience. The Institute of Noetic Sciences has established a project to capture the content of dreams from around the world to see if there are commonalities that can be found. This experiment was partially motivated by reports of unusual dreams prior to 9/11 and the tsunami of December 2005, and by hundreds of historical cases of precognitive dreams. If you are already in the practice of capturing the content in your dreams, then participating in this project to evaluate the collective unconscious may be something for you. A summary of the project from their website is provided below.
Gaia's Dreams is an experiment based on Carl Jung's concept of the collective unconscious. It is designed to gather and analyze collective dream quality and content, and to provide reports on emerging trends based on aspects of those dreams. The site will eventually perform daily automated cross-dream linguistic and quality analyses. Ultimately the goal is to correlate collective dreams with world events, including natural and unnatural disasters, to see if collective dreams are predictive.
