Can Parallel Universes Explain The Déjà Vu Phenomenon?

Have you ever had a déjà vu experience? It’s the feeling, or impression that you have already witnessed or experienced a current situation.

The term déjà vu is French and means, literally, “already seen.”

It is a rather common, yet little understood phenomenon. Most of us have experienced being in a new place and feeling certain that we have  been there before, but we have difficulties understanding how it is possible.

For a long time, this eerie sensation has been attributed to everything from paranormal disturbances to neurological disorders.

In recent years, as more scientists began studying this phenomenon, a number of theories about déjà vu have emerged, suggesting that it is not  merely a glitch in our brain’s memory system.

Psychologists have suggested that déjà vu may occur when specific aspects of a current situation resemble certain aspects of previously occurring situations.If there is a lot of overlap between the elements of the new and old situations, we get a strong feeling of familiarity.Alternative explanations associate déjà vu with prophecy, past life memories, clairvoyance, or a mystic signpost indicating fulfillment of a  predetermined condition on the journey of life.Whatever the explanation, déjà vu is certainly a phenomenon that is universal to the human condition, and its fundamental cause is still a mystery.Another intriguing possibility is that there is a hidden connection between déjà vu and the existence of parallel universes.

As some already know, the multiverse is a theory in which our universe is not the only one, but states that many universes exist parallel to each other.  These distinct universes within the multiverse theory are called parallel universes.

According to Dr. Kaku, quantum physics states that there is the possibility that déjà vu might be caused by your ability to “flip between different universes”.

Dr. Michio Kaku explains one theory behind déjà vu and asks, “Is it ever possible on any scale to perhaps flip between different universes?”

Universes are usually not “in phase”, that is vibrating at the same frequency, with each other due to the divisions  caused by time, but when they are “in phase” it is theoretically possible to “move back and forth” between universes.

So although it is “uncertain”, it could be possible that when you are experiencing déjà vu, you are “vibrating in  unison” with a parallel universe, explains Dr. Kaku

Perhaps our déjà vu experiences are a window into a parallel universe.
