I naturally started seeing auras in seventh grade. I tend to be proud of this fact because it is one of the few things that makes me feel special. [] Anyhoo, in seventh grade, I noticed that my teachers left white shadows on the white boards (you know those dry-erase ones... my middle school was weird). I found that if I looked at their edges just before they moved, I could see the white traces left behind. My eyes are sensitive to after-images, so I assumed that the aura was an after-image.
The next year, in eighth grade, I had a health teacher that was very in touch with her spirit, metaphysics, and all that pleasant stuff. Somehow we got on the topic of energy in people, emotions and stuff. So she said, "Hold guys, lemme show you something. First, every relax. Now I'll stand right in front of the white-board and and you just gaze by me. Not at me, but kind of past me."
So we did. I immediatly saw the white "shadow," but it seemed a tinge green. I just though, 'yeah so what?' Just moments after, some kid yelled out, "Oh, I see it!!"
My teacher replied with, "Very good." And proceeded to explain how people have energy and how you can train yourselfs to see it. I was surprised to find out that it wasn't normal to see these white shadows (which explains why people would get confused when I would refer to it...).
Since then, I've been half-heartedly training myself to see auras, by relaxing myself and watching my teachers yack on and on about math and junk.
Which brings me to the question of colors. I describe the shadows (actually the chakras) as being white, and my teachers aura as being green, but I can't put a real name to the color.
Imagine trying to describe sound to a deaf man. You simply can't. He'll never understand. That's the way it is when I see colors. I can see them, but the only time I can truly put a name to it is when it's blue (I'm better at seeing blue auras because they surround white objects, which are more vibrant).
For example, I see auras without trouble at performances such as my school chorus concerts (by the way, I'm currently a freshman in ninth grade) and at plays. At one school concert, I was listening to the me's ensemble sing, and realized that I could see their auras so clearly that I couldn't make them go away if i wanted to (I tried. I just couldn't). I told my pal Ashee that they were gray-ish green, but they weren't. That was the best description that I could come up with.
So... with all that, here it is:

Do other people have troubles identifying the colors? Why is my third eye have troubles projecting the energy waves into a visual that my eye can see?

Not to get too off topic, but I heard that some little kid drowned in a swimming pool "looking for Spongebob." It's a scary world.

The mind split idea is really amazing in a philosophical way. It really makes you think. Of all your ideas, I think I believe the one about your brain's computer malfunctioning, but I'm not sure.

In your case, cainam_nazier's suggestions on your mind's computer and on your mind splitting both could work with you situation. In the case of your mind breaking down and needing a reboot, you could say that your brain has had more and more reason to reboot. After all, as you learn more about spirits, you have more to think of, and are therefore more likely to crash the system with too much information.
If deja vus are caused by a sudden mind split, perhaps you have more occuring because you're beginning to discover a part or aspect of yourself and this is causing you to see something "experience one event from two different perspectives", as cainam_nazier suggested.

Either way, I guess it could be theorized that you're mind has had more to conquer because you have been paying more attention to the non-physical, something that your mind may not be used to.

There are a million other answers; maybe none of us will ever discover the write one...

(oooh... it sounds so... mysteries. odd. normally i like to run around and yell and act like a foolish moron. [] optimism is so much fun!)

As Athios said, deja vus aren't always prophetic. For me, they never are. I get them quite often, in spurs (sometimes I'll get two in a week or two in a month). I guess the theory of signposts makes sense--thinking harder on it, it makes tons of sense--but I can imagine why I get deja vus during school.

When I deja vu, it's not normally that I hear someone say something or that I'm reading something, it's normally in class at school. One of my more memorable expreiences is in French class. We were all seated in a circle, about to read out loud a childrens' play written in French. Everyone was kind of chatting, and suddenly, I knew that I had experienced this situation before, yet I knew I hadn't. The seating arrangment, the gibberish one of my friends was spouting for the sake of talking, the noise level--everything!! Irritated by this feeling (I had recently had one or two deja vus and they drive me nuts) I tried to escape it by turning away and focusing away from the class. I looked at the writing on the board. It was still a deja vu!! The "last time it happened" (as I refer to it) I had looked at the board then. Unfortunatly, last time the date was different, yet I knew there never had been a last time! Even more disturbed by this extended deja vu, I looked over at the other wall. And there again, I had the deja vu feeling, yet once again in the "last time" that never happened, the writing on the wall was different.

Normally I can end these extended feelings by talking about it to someone, yet when I turned and interrupted my friend, still going on about something unimportant, the feeling only ceased for a moment and once again I had felt that I had already told her about this deja vu before.

Now, it's bad enough that I couldn't escape the feeling, but what's even weirder is that date written on the board was different last time. But there never was a last time!! So in my personal experiences, this completely demolishes the idea of having seen it in a dream or vision of some sort. (I'm not saying that it's not possible, but in this situation it wasn't).

So... where do we get these annoying feelings? One of my friends, an expert on clairvoyancy, physic phenomina, (and forces of demons, dark and evil, which she isn't actually supposed to have told me) once suggested I might be physic. But she told me to hold up my hand. I did, and she looked at it (I can't figure out what she was looking for) and told me I wasn't.

Deja vus drive me insane!!
