✶ THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU’RE DOUBTING SHIFTING.
⋆ SPACE . just.. HELLO ?? we are literally a speck of dust in a ginormous cosmic playground that we can’t even fully explore because we’re too busy figuring out if cats can vibe to beethoven or if that godforsaken dress is white or blue. you think THIS is the only reality? somewhere out there, there’s a planet where the sky is pink, dogs talk, and you’re riding unicorns. shifting is NOT a crazy concept.
⋆ DINOSAURS . THEY. WERE. REAL. like actual dragons without wings, stomping around, acting like they owned the place. if THAT can exist, why not shifting ? you think the universe peaked at “giant chickens with teeth”? no way. reality is way too wild for limits.
⋆ DÉJÀ VU . EXPLAIN IT WITHOUT THE MULTIVERSE. I DARE YOU. why do we randomly feel like we’ve been here before, done this before, or even said this before? because we HAVE. somewhere, somewhen, sometime. you’re already living proof of infinite realities brushing shoulders.
⋆ QUANTUM PHYSICS (4 da nerdies) . scientists out here with their schrödinger’s cats and double-slit experiments proving that reality isn’t fixed. it’s ALL probabilities until you observe it.
⋆ YOU'RE HUMAN . our brains are INSANE. dreams? lucid dreams? daydreaming? thinking of a time and feeling like you just tasted it? if your brain can already do ALL THAT, shifting is just another level. literally just....closing your eyes and opening them in another place.
⋆ YOU'RE ALREADY DOING IT . every time you daydream or even think “what if,” you’re stepping closer to a version of yourself in another reality. you're peeking through the multiverse’s window. shifting is just diving in instead of peeking.
⋆ YOUR DESIRES EXIST . if you can imagine it, it exists somewhere. that’s not wishful thinking; that’s logic. where do ideas come from if not from infinite possibilities? you’re not just dreaming—you’re remembering. nothing goes by you without a purpose. if it found you, it was supposed to !!!!!!!
⋆ THE MANDELA EFFECT . remember when pikachu definitely had a black tail tip, or when the berenstain bears were called the berenSTEIN bears? reality’s already glitchy as fuck. shifting? just another glitch. but YOU’RE IN CONTROL.
⋆ FAIRYTALES HAD TO COME FROM SOMEWHERE . you think someone just WOKE UP and said, “dragons, magic castles, enchanted forests!” no. no. no. those stories? they’re just whispers from realities where that’s NORMAL. you’re not making it up. you’re tuning in. experiencing it. liviiiiiiiing it.
⋆ TIME IS FAKE . i said it. not to get too conspiratorial on my tumblr blog, but what even IS time? a straight line? a wibbly-wobbly thingy? we made clocks, but the universe? the universe is, like, “what is a ‘tuesday’?” shifting doesn’t care about time; it’s above all that silly nonsense. and so are you.
⋆ PARALLEL UNIVERSE ARE A THING ('n' SCIENCE effing SAID SO) . quantum mechanics already told us there’s an infinite number of realities where every possibility plays out. in one of them, you’re already living your best life. shifting is just YOU popping in to say hi to THAT version of you.
⋆ REALITY IS (lowkey) BORING WITHOUT BELIEF . why settle for “this is it. this is my life. a 9-5 job. a life which i barely live out” when the multiverse is basically screaming, “come explore!!” ? you’re a creator. you’re a wanderer.
⋆ "I FEEL IT" IS ENOUGH . don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. if you can close your eyes and feel that DR, the love, the magic, the LIFE. you’re already there. the multiverse doesn’t need proof; it needs belief. so don't let idiots with half a brain on tik tok tell you that you're wrong, when you're so, so, so, so, SOOOO close to BEING THERE and living your best life.
⋆ finally, LITERALLY, WHY NOT . life’s already bananas. people thought flying was impossible, and now we’re out here booking ryanair flights to halfway across the world. people said sex with robots isn't true, and kim k is already siting on a robot's lap. people said the government cannot be stupid, and elon musk is already part of it. shifting is just the next “impossible” (and not to be cheeky...but the word literally has 'i'm possible' in it) thing that YOU are proving possible.
so. girl. dude. diva. bro. go shift.
Hii! I am pretty new to the Tumblr shifting community and I didn’t really plan on posting anything but after browsing around a bit, I kind of wanted to give my two cents on shifting. I used to be active in the Amino community back then but then I took a break to focus on myself. Some time passed since then and I have been shifting pretty regularly now. And after looking through some posts, I wanted to share some things to maybe help others.
Disclaimer: I fully believe shifting is personal and should be tailored to you. What works for me might not work for you and that’s okay! However, I would be very glad if this helped someone. Also excuse how I explain some things. Since I just got back, I’m not very caught up with new shifting terminology so I’m just going to explain how I understand it instead.
You are only consciousness. That is what you are and what you will always be. There will never be any reality, circumstances, doubts, fears, or anything tied to you unless you allow it to. You as consciousness, your only role is to experience and be conscious of things. So as you become conscious of new things, you shift.
As consciousness, your natural state is the void state. You only experience reality when you take on a vessel, which is your body. So through these vessels, you experience reality. And as you live in these vessels, you will encounter its emotions, doubts, and thoughts. This is why people say you are not your doubts or fears, because truly you are not. You are only experiencing it through the vessel. They are not your own, but the vessel’s.
So to shift realities, you simply decide a reality then become conscious of it. Literally just that, you decide and then become. There’s nothing more or less to it I swear.
I think the reason why many people fail to comprehend this is because they had been putting in so much effort that they couldn’t believe how actually effortless it really is. I think it’s because they try to force it without understanding how it just comes naturally. Shifting shouldn’t be about taking control but rather just be. I see people asking how this and how that and am I doing it right, and I just want to say forget all about that and focus on just being.
You had always just been consciousness experiencing reality through a vessel your whole life. You had always made a choice on a reality then proceeded to become aware of it. So now decide on that reality that you want and just be conscious of it. That’s all it is. If it helps, help yourself understand that you are only consciousness. Remind yourself throughout the day, when you experience this vessel’s doubts, or before you sleep. Truly understand that you are not tied down by anything because you are literally just consciousness.
If you question why you should listen to me, it is because I was in your shoes before. For a really long time, I really thought that shifting is just not something I could do and that it was all just an inside joke. I was at my all time low and I just didn’t know what to think or believe anymore. Yet, here I am, shifting as regularly as I sleep. That being said though, I don’t want you to idolize me or envy me. Don’t idolize a consciousness when you are literally one as well and can do anything I can.
I hope this post was understandable. I’m not much of an explainer but I tried my best.
honestly there’s nothing left to be said. you already know how to shift even if you think you don’t. you’re not missing the “hidden key”. girl, you’ve got it in you, you just need to utilize that skill and take the leap. i get you’re afraid, you’re trying everything, but please do not be so hard on yourself. listen to your intuition, believe in shifting however you see fit, it’s YOUR journey, YOUR reality.
you want to let go and detach? if that’s the way for you, fuckin do it !!
you like robotically affirming and persisting in your narrative every hour? please do so, queen!!!
you want to blast subliminals and meditations all night long? be my guest ;)
please quit listening to others all the time. take a post that resonates with YOU, and bring your desires into fruition because…honey, it was always yours.
worst thing about having an s/o in another reality is wanting to send them a funny ass video i saw on tt but i cant UGHHHHHHHHHH
shifting for love is not something to be embarrassed of - it is valid. when you finally find the person, everything else doesn’t matter anymore…
me choosing which dr to be in each night and switching it up everytime cuz i’m spoilt for choice
shifting is for those who refused to give up their childlike sense of wonder
tw: yapping
i love shifting to see my lovely beautiful charming boyfriend. i love manifesting stuff to make life easier or to simply spoil myself. i love it all.
but the thing that made me genuinely fall in love with the law is how limitless we become when we truly acknowledge it.
you know that cliché moment in movies where the main character comes to a joyful conclusion and simply starts laughing while running down a hill? that's me. that's how i feel every time i remember i can be, have, do whatever i desire. i feel this immense feeling of contentedness.
seriously, it's so beautiful.
do you realize how crazy it is? we can live hundreds and hundreds of lives, this is immortality. explore every single corner of the universe. time does not exist.
and it's all within us.
when i say "acknowledge it" i don't mean reading it on a tumblr post, going "wow" and that's it. no. i mean sitting in my bed, alone with my thoughts — my thoughts that, unlike years ago, aren't torturing me with anxiety, instead they fill me with this weird sense of adrenaline and happiness — and truly going into the depths of realizing, feeling the power i have. we all have.
this feeling is so enormous i genuinely can't put it into words, so sorry about that, this post might seem a little messy, but my god? how insane is that?
I'm surprised that with all the shifting advice and posts preparing people for life in a certain dr, no one's ever (to my knowledge) made a post on shifting as another gender/sex. Like I feel it'd be fairly easy to write about? I mean it's not like it's fantastical aliens or vampires, it's just a different body. Why hasn't anyone done a post like "what to expect if you're shifting as amab/afab"?
Imagine you see a baby trying to speak for the first time. At first it only gets out tones, random noises.
Yet I don't see any of you telling said child, ''You're fucking worthless, you can't even speak.''
Because in order for this child to talk, it has to learn. Some learn really quickly, they get the hang of it after a few tries. Others need a few months or years, and that's okay. Every failed attempt is not a waste of time, it's not a failure, it's what is necessary to learn, and get the results you want.
You're learning, growing, like a baby standing up for the first time and falling back down. You would never tell that baby that they're useless, instead you cheer them on as they continue to try. And before you know it, they're running around and talking fluently.
Be kind to yourself💚
When I told my mom about shifting, I thought she’d call me crazy and laugh at me, but she just smiled and said, 'keep trying. One day you’ll make it.'
