I was wondering if any of you have experienced flashbacks.

Several times in my life when I am visiting a totally new place I have felt that I have been there before. Also while I was talking to some people very first time in my life, I felt as if same dialogues have been uttered and I have been in the same surroundings before. Such feelings stay for a minute or two and then goes away.

Would appreciate if you can shine some light on what does this mean.

I thought this string would be about Hallucinogens....
K... It seems to me, these are commonly referred to as Deja-vu. "Been there, done that." There is a school of thought that when you encounter these, then your life is on schedule, so to speak.. that when you view these seemingly random occurances of synchronocity, you are where you should be in life.. the 'blueprint' of your life hasn't taken a turn, you are learning as you should, and are on the right track.

Strangely enough, I have been getting them with intense frequency lately, as well. I kind of think I am on the verge of a change... a major happening, which I hope is positive. It feels that it doesn't necessarily involve free-will, as much as a set of circumstances opening up, and I will know that is my indication. This is a feeling though, not a fact. But generally, increased synchronicity, deja-vu or intuition for me indicates being in tune with the undercurrents of life, and when in tune, you can live in awareness and in turn, grow towards experience and positives. You 'know' when the time comes to stop re-acting, and get the show on the road.

Thank you for your response.

I know a friend of mine (at present I am not aware her where about) went to Haridwar, India from USA first time in her life. She spent about 2-3 years there. When she landed there everything was so familiar to her that she was guiding the cab driver through downtown streets and stopped in front of a house where according to her she spent her previous life....amazing....

Welcome happyone

I think many of us have stories like these. My strongest "flashback" occurred while walking through the ruins of Chichen Itza, and another time at the base of Mount Katadin in Maine.

Experiences like these change one's perspective on all of life.
