My daughter and I were out for a walk in town together. We crossed a zebra crossing on which someone had dropped a carton of eggs. It was a busy crossing and no way could it have been like that for more than a few minutes. I had the strongest of deja vu sensations.which lasted for at least five minutes. I said nothing about it. When we got home my daughter said " It was so strange. When we crosed that zebra crossing. I felt as though it had all happened before " This must disprove all those theories about brain cicuits etc. Comments please.

Yes, My sister and I did, We went to Sturbridge Village in Massachusetts, went into an old house built in the 1600's and when we climbed the narrow steps and up to a bedroom that the tour guide said belonged to 2 sisters, I looked at my sister as she looked at me and we said nothing at first. Then when we left, I asked her how she felt, she said ,"why, how did you feel?" that was when I said." it's weird, but I felt like I have been here before and even knew what the next room looked like." He mouth was opened, and she said " I can't believe it, I felt the same thing," We never told anyone else. In case you are not familiar with Strubridge Village. It is an old village built way back when and preserved. People dress, speak, etc, like they did in that era. We live in Mass. and decided to take a look. That's another thing, I called her to see if she wanted to go. and she was going to ask me the same things. Strange,but true

I don't think it disproves the brain circuits theory. At the end of the day you were experiencing the same facts, and being mother and daughter probably the same emotions.
I have not known of a dual "Deja Vu" before .
The point is I know that this things happen and there is no justification for my personal experience.
Many years ago a went for the first time to my new school.
While I was walking along a corridor I realised that I new what was around the corner. Funny enough it was a massive writing which matched letter by letter what I knew . I have never been there before but I seemed to remember that I had seen it in one of my dreams.
When it can not be proved any body can think what they like.
I KNOW.

Very interesting - i also want to believe in stuff like that because it makes the world not such a black and white world where it's one thing or another - it causes doubt. I have personally never known it but have had many dreams about a normal every day situation and then weeks later it will happen. I'm sure there is something more to deja vu than people think.

it happened to me and my mother once. my brother and his wife and my mother and i were playing cards at home. i felt deja vu felling and said does anyone else feel that? my mother looked up at me with a veryh weird look on her face and said; yes. my sister in law said what are you talking about and i told her about deja vu, she had never herd of that (which is kinda strange). i am now 58 years old and have asked many people if they ever felt it with another person at the same time, i have so far never had anyone say yes yet. now we all know that feeling of time replaying itself which we call deja vu but having it take place with two people at the same very instant is very very strange. there is no way that was some chemical in our brains making this happen. not to persons within six feet of each other. nobody is going to tell me that deja vu is something that is imaginary.

a pair of week in the past, I walked into my front room the place my infants have been guffawing at a comedienne on the television. I experienced this atypical been here/achieved this sense- the place everybody grew to become into sitting, the glasses on the table, the comparable lighting fixtures fixtures on and garments, the comparable dinner cooking with that's aroma's and gave the punch line of the comedian tale earlier the comedienne. Now, it ought to have been a rerun besides the incontrovertible fact that it grew to become into nonetheless a wierd feeling. no longer the 1st time it has exceeded off, the two.

I think this means you are on the right track with your life. I believe we plan our lives out. And when we have Deja Vu it is because we, for a split second, remember what we planned. So if you and your daughter planned that moment together it would only be natural that you both had it at the same time.

This has happened to me quite a few times. It is indeed a play of your reflex. Usually you see something through your eyes, it travels to ur brains where wot u've seen is processed. If it's something of any use ur brain gives u back the information so that u identify wot u've seen and react accordingly. The information not used goes in another corner of ur brain, which is the sub conscious. But sometimes ur brain fails to process and function accordingly n the information u've received gets to both corners of the brain(wher info is processed n info not used is stored). So, u c one clearly and the other one which is stored in a rather dark corner of the brain is seen as a déja vu... a dreamlike thing! But another interpretation of this whole thing then would be either it is something of ur previous birth or the fact that ur soul saw and reacted to wot u saw quicker and earlier than ur brain.

I agree with Miss Lady. I don't know why people try to make it scientific, when clearly it is not a matter science can even begin to comprehend!

Yes me & my daughter have done that before.
We also think the same things at the same time.
I will say something & she will say ''I was just thinking that''.
Perhaps we are more in touch than we think.
