I do not believe in previous lives but I have had deja vu before. Back in the 80s I had traveled to Germany and visited a small town with my friend. When we go to the center of town I realized I had seen the town before in a dream. Without looking I asked my friend if there was a couple coming down the side street wearing specific clothes.... he looked and there they were. It was really weird but I never gave it much more thought.

I have those feelings too, its weird. I don't believe it has anything to do with a previous life. Don't be scared, they're just visions, it can't hurt you.
Here's an exerpt about Deja Vu from wikipedia.org:
"The term déjà vu (French: "already seen", also called paramnesia) describes the experience of feeling that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously. The term was created by a French psychic researcher, Ãmile Boirac (1851–1917) in his book L'Avenir des sciences psychiques (The Future of Psychic Sciences), which expanded upon an essay he wrote while an undergraduate French concentrator at the University of Chicago. The experience of déjà vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity, and also a sense of "eerieness," "strangeness," or "weirdness." The "previous" experience is most frequently attributed to a dream, although in some cases there is a firm sense that the experience "genuinely happened" in the past.
The experience of déjà vu seems to be very common; in formal studies 70% or more of the population report having experienced it at least once. References to the experience of déjà vu are also found in literature of the past, indicating it is not a new phenomenon. However, in laboratory settings, it is extremely difficult to invoke the déjà vu experience, making it a subject with few empirical studies."
If you look up Deja Vu on wikipedia there is much more information, if you still need more answers.

No I dont believe in a previous life. I have had dreams where something happens and then the next day it really happens. I think those are fun. I have also had dreams where they feel so real. Thats just a dream. Enjoy your dreams, sometimes its fun to pretend it would happen. When you have a dream it is usually stimulated by things that have happened or you have thought about or seen over the past days. Then if you think about the dream it starts to feel more real. The more you think about something the more real it seems. Like I said, its just a dream.

There's different ideas on deja vu from it being real to it being a misfiring of neurons so that one part of your brain perceives something before another part and so when everything catches up it seems like a memory, also there's the idea that similar situations blur over time so when placed in a situation similar to past experiences, subconciously you see it as a memory. I personally believe in deja vu because I experience it quite a bit myself.

de ja vu is most likely a misfiled memory. Our mind sorts things in a variety of ways, but always keeps them in chronological order as well. It is possible for memories to get out of order, and as they are being written into the wrong place it feels like you've done it before because the memories are, in a manner of speaking, older than they should be.

Huh - uh. It's a trip up of oxygen supply to the brain. A good correlary is when you listen to a seconds - delay broadcast. Reminds you of the same thing. Take some Flax Oil ( Health food stores carry it. ) Eat apples, Kiwi fruit. Don't sweat. That's what the darkness likes. You sweating. Don't give 'em the satisfaction.

Don't be afraid. Your visions from your past life must be important. Take notes and learn what you need to know.
I've experienced de ja vu numerous times. One time it didn't happen in reality for 15 years after I first dreamed or saw it.
It's really awesome if you will embrace it.

Some of these can be called visions, but I've noticed in my life if I don't like what I see I can change it. It isn't easy, and you don't know exactly when, but if you concentrate on changing your attitude and preparing for it, if you can remember it after the first time, then it can be changed for the better.
