Theories? Have we all died, and are just watching our lifes over before we disappear? Is it aliens? The matrix? Perhaps a god? A plan? High intelligence?
Go wild, what do you think.

Some psychologists beleive it to be a glitch in short term memory.

Deja vu is the sense of having previously experienced something that is presently happening. That previous experience may have been in a dream, it may have been a half-remembered story or incident that we heard about as children, there are a thousand theories as to what it could be. But whatever the cause, it is a trifle unnerving when it happens, as there is a sense of being caught in a river and swept towards something, with no way of changing the event.

Deja Vu is a glitch between the brains ability to interpret data that the eyes are sending it. One eye sends the info and the brain processes part of it. a fraction of a milisecond later the brain gets the same data from the other eye and the brain gets confused. It says, hey I just saw this a fraction of a second ago. You don't realized it because you don't see it, the brain compensates, but you know it so strongly on a subconcious level that you question it and then call it deja vu. that or the Matrix has you....

It is the brain picking up on something familiar and making you think you experienced it before. For example you are walking down a hall feeling deja vu, when really you have seen the floor tile some place else.

First deja vu is a french word , and means that you notice or remember a place or situation that has happened to you before , if you know that it doesn't relate to any thing that is or passed in your present life , then it is believed you are remembering a passage from your previous life , many people and my self we believe we have reincarnated and have previous lives , and when we are some place new , we suddenly feel we have been here.

Why be wild? The answer to deja vu is quite prosaic. It's simply your brain playing tricks on you. Some people suffer from it constantly, while others encounter it once in a while.

I believe it is your mind giving you a quick glimpse of the future. It's as if time is only a concept so that we use to gauge history and keep things in order. Basically evceything that we don't know will happen, has happened, were just waiting to see it happen
