    I have heard that deja vu is just misfiring of the brain synapses. I don't know which one to believe. Is it that or is it because we may have been through that particular (or similar) moment before but for some reason our brains deleted any memory of it? It scares me a little, the power of the human brain.
    Another theory is that because we only use about 10% of our brains, the spiritual (subconcious) mind (the remaining 90%) remembers things from a past life and tries to show us small parts to help us get through this life better. People who can 'open up' to their subconcious mind and use experiences from a past life to help themselves in this one are called Old Souls.
    Bit crazy, hey?
