I am familiar with Anthony Peake’s work for his theory of the Daemon, but I discovered an earlier book, his 2012 “The Labyrinth of Time: The Illusion of Past, Present and Future” and was pleasantly surprised to see that he has also been working through the Time door. He calls his take the “cheating the ferryman” hypothesis and its relation to déjà vu:

Reflecting on the curious subjective phenomenon known as déjà vu, it proposes that this strange sensation of familiarity is, in fact, a memory of a past life in which the subject is experiencing an event for (at least) the second time. Research has shown that more than 70 per cent of humanity have experienced this sensation at least once. This suggests that a similar number of individuals are re-living a life already lived (technically known as déjà vécu). If this is the case then it is possible that some of us can ‘remember’ an event that is yet to take place in this world but has already been experienced in another. We predict the future by remembering the past.

This is the first time I’d heard of Deja Vecu, which the American Psychological Association defines as:

a recurring feeling that one has lived previously (French (for) “already lived”); novel situations are experienced as strangely familiar, leading to a conviction that they are being recollected from a previous life.

Being aligned with both materialism and the fundamentalist religion that is scientism, the APA quickly pivots to “false memory,’ preferring to dismiss the experiences of 70% of the population. But Peake points to something I had been considering:

That the Deja Vu phenomenon can open us to an awareness of an experience from an Other life.

Peake sees it as a “memory from a past life” which I would have agreed with before my Future Lives “initiation” this year. Now I see it as a possible echo from the past, or a reverse echo from a future life experience. (More on reverse echo to come.)

I find myself actually preferring deja vecu in spite of it being lesser known because it refers to an experience “already lived.” Peake introduced me to this concept, and when researching it, I discovered the work of Dr. Vernon Neppe. In “The Psychology of Deja Vu,” Dr. Vernon Neppe lists 20 different types of déjà experience. He writes:

"There are many ways in which déjà experience may manifest. Some of these have specific names:

 déjà entendu = already heard

déjà éprouvé = already tried or attempted

déjà fait = already done or accomplished

déjà pensé = already thought or pondered

déjà raconté = already recounted or told

déjà senti = already felt (as in I have felt this way)

déjà su = already known (intellectually)

déjà trouvé = already met

déjà vécu = already lived through or experienced

déjà voulu = already wanted”
