The following explanation occurred to me awhile ago and is
most definitely *not* a scientific one, but something about
it resonated with me as one who accepts the possibility of
pre-birth-planning:
Just as some believe we get a life-review after death,
maybe before we're born we review what we're going to
do in our upcoming earthly life. Deja-vu, in that case,
might simply be the recalling of snippets of some kind of
pre-birth 'dress rehearsal'. So we feel like we've been
through that moment before because we have been
through it before, when we were rehearsing it.
I know that 's not exactly Psychology Today material,
but I got a kick out of it when it first came to me and I
couldn't resist sharing it.
