DÃ©jÃ  Vu is a common intuitive experience that has happened to many of us. The expression is derived from the French, meaning already seen.. When it occurs, it seems to spark our memory of a place we have already been, a person we have already seen, or an act we have already done. It is a signal to pay special attention to what is taking place, perhaps to receive a specific lesson in a certain area or complete what is not yet finished.
