Sixth sense and intuition

[Exian]

I always relate this to that feeling of keeping time in a song. When you play with musicians, you're bound to mess up, and when you're a novice, you'll likely stop everything and start from the beginning, whereas a seasoned player will jump back on, because the song is playing in their head. But that's not even the feeling I'm talking about, that's still the player actively keeping time. There's a point when it becomes so intuitive that you no longer have to actively keep time. It just becomes a notion.

*Anecdote Alert!* The other day in the lab walking from room to room. One room had a radio on and I started humming along. I walked into another room while completing some task including running through some calculations and weighing a few things. Every now and then, I'd focus back on to humming that song. When I walked back into the room with the radio, I was right on time with the song.

I think this could explain how sometimes we know exactly when someone might call us on the phone and other "weird" things. We subconsciously keep time with the pattern in our lives. Now, obviously this is just as much of an assertion as a supernatural explanation, but at least it moves it away from the supernatural.
