Join the roomDéjà vu es el fenómeno de sentir que uno ha vivido la situación presente en el pasado. Es una ilusión de la memoria por la cual—a pesar de una fuerte sensación de recuerdo—el tiempo, el lugar y el contexto de la experiencia "anterior" son inciertos o imposibles. Aproximadamente dos tercios de las poblaciones encuestadas reportan haber experimentado déjà vu al menos una vez en sus vidas. El fenómeno se manifiesta ocasionalmente como un síntoma de auras epilépticas, y algunos investigadores han asociado el déjà vu crónico o frecuente "patológico" con enfermedades neurológicas o psiquiátricas. Experimentar déjà vu se ha correlacionado con un mayor estatus socioeconómico, mejor nivel educativo y edades más bajas. Las personas que viajan a menudo, ven películas con frecuencia o recuerdan sus sueños con frecuencia también son más propensas a reportar haber experimentado déjà vu que otras.

“They [ Romantics ] all seem to have experienced paramnesia, the sensation of déjà vu, the total recollection which does not appear to be recollected; they all aimed at least at the total exclusion of the past from the present by a perfect absorption in the present, as if time stood still and became eternity.”
