I personally have déja vu's while dreaming too. I'm sure having the same dream two or three times is quite normal, but I remember that halfway through one dream I thought that I've already experienced that before, while normally you would only realise it after you wake up. Still, it's not like I have these déja vu's all the time. I just seem to remember them.
I think that's because some part of me wants to prove I'm not having a déja vu if the same situation comes back a second time (which so far has never happened)

Deja Vu...........for me would be in an educational sense.

Wah, have you done your literature assignment set for today?

Oh Ms! I'm sorry! I forgot to do it - I swear I thought I did it yesterday, I swear I did.

(A very typical situation, by the way

)

I think (a very personal opinion), that it is affected by our natural ability to take things for granted. Say, you wanted to do the shopping, and you were in a tremendous hassle, you'd say: "Bother! I'll do it later!"

Then, when your "mental plan of the day" gets disrupted, you continue to live the illusion that it HAS been done, and continue on your day as if it were written in your heads, from the morning you got up!

Repression is a defence mechanism explained by Freud, which contributes to the way in which our brains "mentally work".

So even if you were asked to learn your ABCs (very corny I know), if the idea of learning it was "pushed" back by stress and stuff - the next time the ABCs come up again (by chance), you'd think that you've done it before, and that you actually know it! (But you don't!

)

Oh well............I'm a lich - not a psychologist! So ask me to deliver powerful magics instead next time!

Hmm... I say, we've all been attacked by time-traveling alien demons from Mars... or something like that... Or possibly it's something else I suppose. I don't really know. But yes, I get deja-vu every once in a while (those @^$(@^&$# time-traveling alien demons!). *shrug* Can't rembmer at what times, though.

i get that feeling qutie alot as well. i cant explain why it happens, it just does.

------------------
It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

What are you saying? Are you trying to tell me you have feelings now? Ha, ha, ha... Stop acting as if you're sad. And there's no need to act as if you're angry either. Because, Cloud, you are... a puppet.

It's odd, I get deja vu quite often, and about many things, even fairly normal things.
