Korey,
Two Things:
1) Not to scare you but I have heard that consistent deja vu can be a sign of seizures or the on-set of epilepsy. This doesn't have to be scary just make sure you get a check up with your regular doctor and tell him your concerns. However, I think it's reasonable to assume that if you haven't had problems with this yet by your age then I doubt it is something like epilepsy. From the little I know about epilepsy is that is begins at a very young age.
2) The other major thing to realize is that deja vu is a very well understood psychological phenomenon.
Basically, one of the theories is that your Brain sees and perceives an event, object, etc... and then stores it into memory millseconds before you consciously perceive it. Thus, you feel like the event has happened before because it has happened before, milliseconds before you actually perceived the event happening. So it's really just a brain glich, which is why many people suffering from seizures experience it frequently.
Furthemore, this therory isn't even slightly far fetched given the millions of things that your brain does through-out the day without you being aware of them.
There is also another theory that is rather new and not too contrasting to the theory above:
I'll just give you the link to the article and a quote from the article:
"Researchers believe that a set of neurons called place cells fire to provide a sort of blueprint for any new space we encounter. The next time we see the space, those same neurons fire. Thus we know when we’ve been somewhere before and don’t have to relearn our way around familiar turf.
Researchers believe that a set of neurons called place cells fire to provide a sort of blueprint for any new space we encounter. The next time we see the space, those same neurons fire. Thus we know when we’ve been somewhere before and don’t have to relearn our way around familiar turf.
But if we enter a space very similar to one we have seen before, a new but overlapping set of neurons creates the blueprint. When there is enough overlap between the two sets, we experience an eerie feeling of déjà vu–a French phrase that literally means, “already seen.”

This is from psychcentral and it is a very reliable source.
Now you may respond and say something like:
"Well I had a dream that this happened once and now it is actually happening."
This type of thing is more of a premonition than deja vu, but it is most-likely closely related to deja vu. Your brain is most-likely trying to compensate for strange events that it hasn't experienced before. It could also be that your imagination is simply coming on strong.
Eitherway, it is certainly more reasonable to assume that this is just a psychological glich that mostly everyone experiences rather than something supernatural.
If that doesn't fully help and you still think that it is a spiritual issue then you should check out some information on Buddhism (since re-incarnation is a dominant theme in Buddhism) or simply go to your regular spiritual advisor (preist, minister, rabi, etc.) and ask them for some advice on this issue.
Personally, I highly doubt there is anything supernatural going on and if you really feel like this is a case of premonitions then write down your dreams as soon as you wake up.
Do this everyday for awhile. Then when you get your first occurance of a premonition, check back on your notes and see if it is really a premonition or you are just tricking yourself into thinking that it is.
I also doubt that this is epilepsy unless you have been experiencing seizures your whole live, but you should always get a check up regardless of whether or not you feel ill.
Good Luck,
Beat
