The weird feeling you get when you remember a scene or event when you know you're actually experiencing it for the first time. Some people take it as evidence that they've lived a past life, but more than likely, it's just an uncommon but harmless chemical or electrical blip in your brain.Déjà vu is often a fairly enjoyable thing to experience but it's not anything you want to base life lessons or philosophy on.
Déjà vu from the French, meaning "already seen." The feeling that your current experience is a repetition of a past one.
Maybe it's caused by perceptual data getting into your memory sooner than it reaches your conscious perception.

De ja vu is made by a part in your mind. De ja vu is when you could dream (any kind) and you wouldn't remember that dream. Than in one stage of your life that dream will come true and exactly how it was in your dream. But even though you don't remember the dream you will remember being in that spot before or hearing that thing(sometimes both). This is so rare that only 1/6 (one sixth) of the people on the earth can do it. If you have this give you may only be able to do this twice a year.

Deja vu is a common human experience. Rates of occurrence range from 36% to 96%. Some people think they are having a supernatural experience, but neurologists and consciousness researchers think that the experience is a misfiring in the brain related to time and perception or communication between different parts of the brain. Although it is common in healthy people, it is also an aspect of the epileptic aura. This does not mean that deja vu itself is a symptom of an oncoming epileptic seizure but it is a sign of it when it occurs in combination with other symptoms (such as confusion and anxiety, dreaminess, or an uncomfortable gastroesophageal effects.) It is also common in person with schizophrenia and the episode might last longer in a person with schizophrenia than in a healthy person.

Déjà vu (French for "already seen") is the experience of feeling that one has witnessed or experienced a new situation previously. The experience of déjà vu is usually accompanied by a compelling sense of familiarity, and also a sense of "eeriness", "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. Déjà vu has been described as "remembering the future."
The experience of déjà vu seems to be very common; in formal studies 70% of people report having experienced it at some point during their lives.

Ur brain sumtimes calculates odds of sumthing happening and directs a video like image into ur subconscious, which is the only part of ur brain that is active while sleeping.
This creates a 'dream' that seems to prophesise what will happen to u soon.
It usually occurs within a routine.
But when ur brain 'prophesises' correctly you have a feeling that u have been there or done that and, ergo, u have deja vu.
It is French for "already seen", also called paramnesia from the Greek word 'para' for parallel and mnÄmÄ for memory.
(Dont ask me how mneme is pronounced, i dont know.

deja vu in french "already seen".
Sometimes..when we go to a certain places (which we never went before) we feel some kind of familiarity on it as if we been there for somewhere in the past or even we feel that we are repeating a certain situation that we couldn't explain..
Based from my experience, I went to a certain place and I feel that I been there and the funny thing is I feel that I was repeating something...It's like from a dream of mine way back..or imaginations /daydream that we never realized.
A coincidence of all coincidences

you have a dream or someone/you says something would be cool if it happened and it comes true. for example, if you had a dream about (im just going to use a crazy example that most likely wont ever happen but...) mice chasing you around with a sledge hammer and then it happens in real life the next day or 2 or 3 days later. hope this helps

Some people say that deja vu is evidence of past lives and reincarnation.
Sufferers of epilepsy sometimes say that they have severe deja vu before a fit. (Useless info there!)

you walk into a room (you have never been in) but you remember being there before.
A teacher is giving a lecture and you would swear you have heard this exact lecture, all the words in this order before.
It can be a symptom of some types of epileptic seizures.
