How is it possible that I can dream the future? Can dreams become reality?

Lately I have been having all of these weird dreams. Last year, I had a dream about an earthquake happening in Chile (the country where I live), so the night it happened I dressed myself in like clothes so I could run out of the house fast. Then yesterday I had a dream about people breaking into my car, and it actually happened today… It also happened with like smaller things, like knowing someone’s name before I actually met them, or like dreaming about fights and actually getting into them… How is it possible I can sometimes see the future?
– Also, two people so far have dreamt that they saw me drowning in a bathtub and it kinda freaks me out… Is this just plain coincidence?
