Ever stop and say: "Oh my God, I've said/did this before, exactly like this"? can anyone tell me if they know exactly what causes a déjà vu feeling?

Strange though it may sound, sometimes 'deja vu's' come from the present. the feeling you have seen something or been somewhere before can eminate from the short term memory tricking itself into thinking its seen it before. in reality it was only a few seconds ago you saw it but something caused a blip, possibly a flashback or thought of something else causes an interuption. the best analogy I can give is of a car CD player going over a bump in the road, it returns to the same point where the mind left off. End result, you feel like youve been here before, but it was only a few seconds ago. A loop in time for want of a better term.

Sometimes things happen in life that don't make any sense. This is one of them. It falls into the category of having possessed items in the wrong persons possesion. If you still have a bad feeling about what happened, then you should try looking into the mirror again and ask what it means and why that  happened. If you feel good about what happened, but are too afraid to look in it agaion, then just leave it in your basement and be thankful for having such an experiance. If that happened to me, I would probably just be on acid. But if i wasn't on acid, I would probably start talking to them and see what happens. COOL EXPERIANCE MAN!!!

The one we assume is 'now', but actually took place before now and it takes awhile for us to 'catch up'....science has already established that our brains are programmed with a delayed reaction anyway.   I think deja vu is due to either reincarnation, or the fact that time is not linear. mail me if you ever want to talk about it...time is one of my favorite subjects in the world, and greatest dilemmas!

It sounds like "old memories" type of deal. Maybe subconsciously when you go back home, you are remembering it and you feel like you can't recover in front of these people, so the fear comes back. Does that make sense to you?

When something like this happens its smart not to obsess about the actual details of events because they don't really mean anything. Ask yourself questions like "Why did she behave the way she did? Did she do it to hurt me, or because it was what she wanted to do at the time?" If she did these things again, would you be able to take her back again? What do you think the chances of her doing these things again are? If you don't think so, why not? How has she or your circumstances changed?

I have experieced this several times. People have told me it's deja vu, but deja vu is only a strange feeling that you have done something before, not actually dreaming about it.\n\nI was able to experiment a bit (very limited), where in some cases I tried to follow how the dream played out, and in some cases I tried to do it differently.\n\nMy conclusion... \n\nI don't know. I have never met anybody else with the same experience, and haven't been able to find anything on the internet either. Don't worry about seeing the future though, if things come true, they will, if they don't, they won't. Worrying about it won't help a stich. \n\nI would suggest looking into "lucid dreams" which is the closest thing I found where one can control their own dreams, which I have also experienced. Interesting stuff.\n\nGood luck, and try to enjoy it, there aren't too many mystical things in the world today.

First of all...its deja vu.\n\nDeja vu is a French term for "already seen."  So in other words...yes...when you feel like you've seen or done something before, it's deja vu.\n\nWhat you do about it is up to you...you can either learn to learn from what you've seen or done or just simply recognize it as something  you've already seen or done.

I have a few times, and sometimes I dream in episodes or have found myself watching a movie, even seeing the credits go by as my dream was ending. The time I really remember words it was actually a screenplay. Seemed like it was telling me to start writing. Do you think that might be your connection? Do you do it often? Dreams are fascinating. Are you keeping any kind of journal? Are there repeating themes? Interesting. Maybe someone else can shed some further light.

don't worry man,the SAME EXACT thing happens to me.Beleive it or not,it happens with more people than you might think.I do believe in a sixth sense.I don't see why people think of it as freaky or scary.It happens to alot of people.The ten seconds in the future thing,It happens to me and I think it means that we have dreamt about it without our knowledge and we get a sense of deja vu when it actually happens.

I'm always getting deja vu, it's a really odd sensation. Sometimes I'm not sure if I have dreamt about a place before I visit it, it's a really surreal feeling!

How do you feel when you return to a place you have been to before? You remember it, don't you? You feel you have been there, correct? That is the same as remembering a past life.\n\nIt is better to recall the past life yourself via hypnosis, dream, visions, etc. because you have your own personal experience and feeling to judge what you see is a past life or not.\n\nHaving a psychic telling you can leave room for error. They might be off by a person or might misinterpret the information. It is a good idea to have any past life information that you have received from a psychic confirmed by at least five psychics first before taking it as truth. Just because a psychic might be wrong does not mean they are wrong 100%. Us humans are not perfect, we are infallable. Only a Realized Soul could be accurate with the information.\n\nThere is a very interesting site http://www.johnadams.net This guy Walter Semkiv, M.D. had some some research on many cases of past lives and wrote a book called "Return of the Revolutionaries" which I have read. It is fascinating to read and there were many stories of how people can to find out who they are in their past life and became shocked at how identical the looked like in their former life. It is a known fact that our Soul would retain very similiar facial features life after life. There are many examples on that website. Take a look!\n\nI also wrote two posts about past lives on my 360 blog, the first about my very first past life recall, and the second about how people look like their past lives:\n\nhttp://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-O50H77Iib6fVzcbXCb1eO_cIAk0-?cq=1&l=46&u=50&mx=111&lmt=5&p=263\n\nhttp://blog.360.yahoo.com/blog-O50H77Iib6fVzcbXCb1eO_cIAk0-?cq=1&l=21&u=25&mx=111&lmt=5&p=356

Deja Vu - Already Seen.\n\nThis can be many things.\n\nJungian theory states that we all have soul memory.  So if you are in a spot that an ancestor was - maybe you have a flashback.\n\nAll animals have instints - These are genetic memories.  Again flashbacks.\n\nSometimes one side of your brain process faster than the other, or you store a current event as memory BEFORE your cognitive side actually mulls over it.\n\nThen somtimes it's a step back in time.\n\nThen sometimes it's a quick premonition.  Like the time I overheard a boy in the front of my class talk to another about his vacation and I knew the whole entire conversation before he actually said it....  But that could be a wierd coincidence.....\n\n....

i think its your brain somehow writing your current experiences on some previous date in its journal of memories, and then seeing that it has already gone through this before.  Then, its a really weird feeling\n\nbut i really have no clu

It's interesting to come across this question. I was talking to someone the other day who woke up with a feeling something really bad was going to happen the same day that he got arrested after DUI. Was it really a premonition, or did he just act stupid because he had that feeling and brought the whole situation onto himself?\nSometimes I feel I have premonitory feelings, that are very clear, but none of them has come true. I wonder whether they aren't real, or whether I have so far been able to turn the bad things that were about to happen to me into nothing just by having premonitory thoughts. \nAnyways...

Deja Vu is scary...but this is what people say...that our life is already planned out and we're just living through it...and because it's planned out and everything has happened before...we're just passing through but Deja Vu is us remembering the certain action has already happened

Before you come in this body, you see your whole life from the beginning as baby till the end, when You die. But after your age of seven you forget everything. there is only an echo who stays...A deja-vu is that echo. Why a person can fall in love to another one and be sure, that he or she is the right one...only because he has seen the film of his life before. "Coincidence" is an invention from people who are not believing in "Destiny".

Yes, I experience it, usually when I'm reminded through some event happening (its mostly a very vague reminder) but the memories rush back, and hit home as hard as it just happened the day before. I find myself whispering to myself, "No, no" or some other thing in a vain attempt to somehow make things right in the past. I try not to think about it, but it mostly ruins my mood for that very moment, and when I'm with company, they notice that I space out for a few seconds. In time though, things get better. For me it has, and the occurence of such flashbacks are getting lesser and lesser with time. Talking about it (with the right person) helps a lot. If you have supportive family and friends, thats always a blessing. I give credit to my girlfriend, who has helped me immensely through this.
