the only thing de jua vu tells you is that you are on the right path that you are supposed to be on. everyone is born with a purpose or personal mission and de jua vu is a way that the universe tells you when you are on that path the more da jua vu the better if you have less or no de jua vu then you need to ask yourself where you got off of your path and try to get back on the best way is to follow your heart and trust your instincts

Déjà vu
Déjà vu is French for "already seen." Déjà vu is an uncanny feeling or illusion of having already seen or experienced something that is being experienced for the first time. If we assume that the experience is actually of a remembered event, then déjà vu probably occurs because an original experience was neither fully attended to nor elaborately encoded in memory. If so, then it would seem most likely that the present situation triggers the recollection of a fragment from one's past. The experience may seem uncanny if the memory is so fragmented that no strong connections can be made between the fragment and other memories.
Thus, the feeling that one has been there before is often due to the fact that one has been there before. One has simply forgotten most of the original experience because one was not paying close attention the first time. The original experience may even have occurred only seconds or minutes earlier.
On the other hand, the déjà vu experience may be due to having seen pictures or heard vivid stories many years earlier. The experience may be part of the dim recollections of childhood.
However, it is possible that the déjà vu feeling is triggered by a neurochemical action in the brain that is not connected to any actual experience in the past. One feels strange and identifies the feeling with a memory, even though the experience is completely new.
The term was applied by Emile Boirac (1851-1917), who had strong interests in psychic phenomena. Boirac's term directs our attention to the past. However, a little reflection reveals that what is unique about déjà vu is not something from the past but something in the present, namely, the strange feeling one has. We often have experiences the novelty of which is unclear. In such cases we may have been led to ask such questions as, "Have I read this book before?" "Is this an episode of Inspector Morse I've seen before?" "This place looks familiar; have I been here before?" Yet, these experiences are not accompanied by an uncanny feeling. We may feel a bit confused, but the feeling associated with the déjà vu experience is not one of confusion; it is one of strangeness. There is nothing strange about not remembering whether you've read a book before, especially if you are fifty years old and have read thousands of books over your lifetime. In the déjà vu experience, however, we feel strange because we don't think we should feel familiar with the present perception. That sense of inappropriateness is not present when one is simply unclear whether one has read a book or seen a film before.
Thus, it is possible that the attempt to explain the déjà vu experience in terms of lost memory, past lives, clairvoyance, and so on may be completely misguided. We should be talking about the déjà vu feeling. That feeling may be caused by a brain state, by neurochemical factors during perception that have nothing to do with memory. It is worth noting that the déjà vu feeling is common among psychiatric patients. The déjà vu feeling also frequently precedes temporal lobe epilepsy attacks. When Wilder Penfield did his famous experiment in 1955 in which he electrically stimulated the temporal lobes, he found about 8% of his subjects experienced "memories." He assumed he elicited actual memories. They could well have been hallucinations and the first examples of artificially stimulated déjà vu.

You may possibly have had a precognitive dream or lived the situation in a previous life time. Science has done research that says our minds can race ahead of our consciences causing this effect.....pick the answer that feel most comfortable and go do the meditative work necessary to get spiritual guidance and see if it begins to happen more often...There is nothing wrong or "retarded" about it...I hate that term.......blessings...d

One answer is that sometimes your brain is tired and can't translate the things you are seeing or feeling the same time you see of feel them. So what you see or feel as deja vu is actually you perception delayed to your brain by a less than a second.

Every situation you've ever experience is stored in your brain's memory. This includes dreams, real encounters, movies, ect.
At times the brain can rearrange or compile situations that closely resemble your current setting. This gives you the feeling of de ja vu

Its about your subconscious mind.....which makes you familiar places & sometimes you feel that you had never seen such things. Its all about your fears and likings deep hidden in your subconscious.
The best thing is to move on......Change is an asset....dont cling to past things
