      HI @melissalowe

      I’m afraid I don’t know what causes deja-vu – I’ve not read any research on it.
      Some people think it’s the information from each eye or ear not reaching the brain at the same moment, but I have not seen any evidence suggesting this is true.

      There are some potential causes for deja-vu mentioned on the wikepedia page – have a look
      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9j%C3%A0_vu

      Let me know if you’d like more info, and I’ll see what I can do 🙂
