RE: Those Deja-vu Moments-- What Do They Mean?

in #psychology7 years ago

A fascinating subject for sure. I have only had one or two experiences of this phenomenon but when I did have them they were very strong indeed. The strongest being regarding to the little village I live in today. When I first visited the village (in Norway) as a tourist, I felt an overwhelming sensation that I had been, even live there before, and that I had lived there for many years.
6 months later I had emigrated to this very village. That was 16 years ago.
It´s as though it had already happened and I had forgotten about it and then when I saw the place my memory returned.
Perhaps Einstein was right when he suggested that time was actually going backwards but our brains interpret it as going forwards.

It is fascinating, to be sure.

Oddly enough, I had a similar experience with the town where I now live... 11 years ago, I was going to move from Texas to here in Washington state, but had no fixed destination. Looking at maps for likely candidates, I pointed at this town-- and, never having heard of it before-- pictured it in my head, down to the layout of the main part of town and the neighborhoods... and it's almost exactly how it looked, when I got here.

Indeed, Einstein may have been right... quantum mechanics remain mostly a mystery,
