Some say that it's remembering a dream, or living through a premonition, or actually re-living a past experience.
To have 'already seen' isn't an appropriate term, really, for a deja-vu isn't a memory of thought of an event or situation .. it's an actual experience felt, heard, smelt, tasted.
If we're remembering a dream or if we are now living within a psychic vision from a premonition .. then how come we can FEEL it? If that were the case, then shouldn't it just be a thought, like a memory?
aka: paramnesia = parallel memory
Would this mean that there is a parallel reality that we are living simultaneously and every once in a while .. we're temporarily connected to the other side?
Wow .. on this side, we would see it as the person being psycho, when really their realities just have a better connection.
Maybe it's for real .. maybe that's why when we have dreams we are actually tapping in .. we can see ourselves and people we know .. only our/their face is different. It's only different to our perception of who we think we are because it's an alter personality and our minds in sleep state doesn't know how to process in our brains that it's the same person, just different personality .. that's why our bodies are ours, it's the face that's blurred.
When we think back .. our memories don't give us physical impressions.
With deja-vu .. we experience it physically (as well as mentally).
This indicates to me that our recall of this event is something we've actually experienced in the physical form .. how else would we know what it "feels" like?
I've read several times that deja-vu is a memory from our "life" before we come here. According to this theory, we plan certain things to go through that we will learn from before being born into the physical, and deja-vu is the memory of making that plan. It means you're on the right path...where you're supposed to be.
Just one theory, but it's the one that makes the most sense to me.
Q, I exprience it in the physical form .. meaning the physical senses, not just a memory. I can smell, how the touch of certain objects feel, hearing something. With memory of an event, I can recall a scent, but, not actually smell it.
Sea Siren .. that's an interesting theory. Also, disturbing .. it would suggest that we aren't directing our destiny as we live it, rather, it's already been pre-determined and now we're suppose to follow a certain course that's already been planned. I don't think I like that theory very much 😢
Well..the way it was described there are still always choices. There are multiple paths available...or the choice to go completely off your path. I guess I like it because it means...all of this chaos is actually for a reason. lol I don't know..sometimes I've chosen to go a certain way, and at the time, the way it turned out was just terrible, but then looking back I can always go "YEAH! Okay..I did learn something very important there. It wasn't all for naught. I'm probably not describing it the best. I'll see if I can find a link about it.
Thanks Sea Siren .. that was an interesting read, and it does explain what you were trying to say.
Last night, my husband and I pondered this and he said that it doesn't sound logical that it could be this "blueprint" because our own spirits wouldn't have the ability to map out what another spirit planned. Meaning: Within a deja-vu, a porch decorated is by another spirit's life chart, or the color of thier car, or where the other spirit planned to work .. so, though, maybe we would be able to chart our own, we each wouldn't have the ability to chart out anothers to coincide with ours, for if that were the case, then there would just be one spirit designing the whole system = God.
That was his reasoning and it makes sense .. but, what you said does too. I know that people with epilepsy often have deja-vu right before a seizure and this makes me stop and ponder whether it's not a mystical phenonema at all and just a brain glitch of electrical impulses, since our temporal-lobes in the Cerebrum (which is what is effected in epilepsy) controls semantics (visually) and hippocampus (memory formation).
Maybe Deja-vu's are just our brains temporarily mis-firing. It would be curious to see if people who have Schizophrenia have this a lot since that is a disorder which causes disturbances in perception, as MsPisces point out.
Everything is explainable .. ::sighs:: .. life isn't much fun without mystery 🙂🙂
"though, maybe we would be able to chart our own, we each wouldn't have the ability to chart out anothers to coincide with ours, for if that were the case, then there would just be one spirit designing the whole system = God."
That particular theory is based on reincarnation. That we also contract with other spirits (kindred spirits, soul mates, whatever you want to call them) to interact together in each life. I've always been interested in reincarnation because I've had that experience so many times where I just meet someone, and it doesn't feel like a stranger at all, and then they end up playing a meaningful role in my life. I think deja vu and past lives are definitely connected in some way. Maybe someday we'll have the technology to actually find out. That would be SO COOL! 🙂
lol.. this is a funny thread. rebirth and dejavu chart. Can it be proven? No. Can it be observed like Astrology? No. Is this author making money out of this? Yes. Isnt it simple?
Reincarnation is only supported by incidents where a kid happened to remember details of things which happened in the past even before his birth. Its highly possible that energy which is stored as memory gets transported after death. If soul concept has any relevance, then there should have been incidents related to repetition of behavioral patterns.

Sea siren, i am currently reading an interesting book, i think you would like it. Its called 'the instruction,' by ainslie macleod.
Well often times I wake up, and have one or sometimes a few dreams that I recall in detail. I'll get out my dream journal, write them down, even with a picture sometimes. Later that day I'll be somewhere and suddenly get a strange feeling. Not quite like anything I've ever experienced before such as a memory, but then a direct sense of a presence of a vast nature of energies that aren't physical. Then I'll look up, and 3 people from the dream I had the night before are right there, and they'll say specific things or be wearing a specific thing that they were in my dream :O...
Interesting topic... The way i experience deja-vu is more a blend of auditory/visual. Like having a conversation with someone, and suddenly getting that strange feeling like..."okay, wow ..either i've just said this in this exact detailed environment or they have. Like word for word, kind of like waking up instantly from a dream and remembering it vividly. Of course, this is only for a few seconds ..but wow, it can be a wierd sensation.

What is it really? What is this phenomenon?
