Twice it's happened now! Twice my deja vu's and my dreams have collided to become a passing experiences called my reality.
The latest replayed event was of myself gazing fondly at a small black dog who I knew liked to bite me as he scampered around my legs. During the deja vu, what triggered the recollection of my dream was the brilliance of the sunlight and the warm feelings about the moment as I kept a watchful eye on my newest family member. While that deja vu was an exact replay, the freaky part was I was able to correlate the occurrence to a dream that had transpired nearly a year before without it being in a dream journal. Has this happened to anyone else-a deja vu being a clear cut memory from a dream?
Hi,
Not deja vu but lots of ' events'....
Headline news... Always six days later.
Crazy world....
It's happened to me too, maybe two or three times in my life. It's never headline news or anything like that though - just trivial events, which are over within a few seconds.
The first time it happened I was in high school. I was sitting in a newly built classroom, in a maths class, trying to work out how to solve a difficult problem. I was also feeling alone as I didn't get on with anyone in that class very well. Then it suddenly hit me that I'd dreamt all of this, down to the very last detail of how I was feeling, what I could see around me and on the paper in front of me. All this before the place was even built!
I wonder if this is actually quite common, but people tend not to talk about it much for fear of not being believed, or even ridiculed.
I also wonder if that's what all deja vu's are, just that we often don't remember the dream it was linked with.
