Is Time Really Linear? with Julia Mossbridge

Mar 16, 2026

Julia Mossbridge, cognitive neuroscientist exploring precognition and time, discusses experiments linking photons to temporal effects. She explains the CADS research inspired by double-slit puzzles. Topics include temporal interference, duration-sorting, time as braided rather than linear, photons as information carriers, and connecting an informational substrate to universal love.

INSIGHT

Interference Might Happen Over Time

The double-slit interference could be interference across time rather than space, meaning a present particle might interact with past or future versions of itself.
Julia Mossbridge tested this by predicting that future photon availability would change the interference pattern measured in an earlier 30-second window.

ANECDOTE

Borrowing Equipment To Test Retrocausality

Julia persuaded Dean Radin to let her use his double-slit setup and learned to run it herself to test her time-interference idea.
Her first round showed the interference pattern during the initial measurement changed depending on a later randomized decision about how long the system would remain on.

INSIGHT

Turning Future Photon Count Into An Experimental Variable

The experiment used a true random generator to decide after the first 30 seconds how long the emitter would remain on, making the future photon-count an experimental variable.
The dependent variable was the first 30 seconds' data, testing whether an unknown future choice influenced prior measurements (a presentiment-style design).

Is Time Really Linear? with Julia Mossbridge

Julia Mossbridge, PhD, is a cognitive neuroscientist focused on understanding and training exceptional human performance including psi effects such as precognition, technological intuition, human-AI teaming, time, and accessing unconditional love. She is the co-founder and Board Chair of TILT: The Institute for Love and Time, Senior Distinguished Fellow in Human Potential at the Center for the Future of AI, Mind, and Society at Florida Atlantic University, Affiliate Professor in the Department of Biophysics and Physics at University of San Diego, Senior Data+Intuition Consultant at Tangible IQ, a member of the Alfred Lee Loomis Innovation Council at the Stimson Center, and the founder of Mossbridge Institute. Julia is author and coauthor of numerous books and scientific articles, including Transcendent Mind: Rethinking the Science of Consciousness with Imants Baruss; The Calling: A 12-Week Science-Based Program to Discover, Energize, and Engage Your Soul’s Work; The Premonition Code: The Science of Precognition, How Sensing the Future Can Change Your Life Paperback; and Have a Nice Disclosure. Her website is juliamossbridge.com

Julia describes her research that explores the relationship between photons and time, “Replication and Characterization of the Causally Ambiguous Duration-Sorting (CADS) Effect”, that builds on the double-slit experiment. Through her exploration of bosonic particles, consciousness, and the past, present, and future, she suggests that the nature of time may be more like a braid than linear. By equating the informational substrate of the universe, that connects everything, with unconditional love, she demonstrates a connection of science and spirituality.
