It happens when your mind sends things to your long term memory at the same time as your short term memory, instead of waiting to transfer the info. So what is happening feels like a memory, instead of the present.

So, deja vu is basically just a mistake of the brain causing you to think it's happened, when really, you've just experienced it for the first time.
