YOUR TAPPING IN PROCESS DOESN’T HAVE TO BE “ALL THAT”

Me trying to act nonchalant in my dr around my s/o

I had a dream I shifted

Shifting diary # 7

Some one please tell me possibly why my brain would do this to me😭🙏

To clarify some things before I explain:

I’m certain that this was a dream

Even though this dream wasn’t (for the most part) a lucid one, I have been lucid dreaming all my life so I don’t want anyone to come across this post and think lucid dreaming is shifting because it certainly is not.

I can’t remember to many specifics about this dream but about an hour and a half ago I woke up and started to remember said dream, (also the night prior I’m pretty sure I had a dream about my DR/significant other) but like I said I dreamt I shifted. I’m not sure what happened before this moment, (like I’m not sure if I was trying to shift and just ended up in another dream) but I put my hands on a wall and thought to myself “this is so real I’ve shifted! I can feel the wall I shifted.”

And I definitely did not shift, for one I didn’t not actually feel the wall, and the dream was vivid but it definitely wasn’t real life, and the there were dream like inconsistencies. And deep down I knew it too even in the dream because as the dream went on I thought to myself “I thought shifting was supposed to be like real life, everything is kinda blurry though …” and I just dismissed these thoughts.

The dream itself wasn’t even to my DR. It was to a weird alternative CR x Gilmore girls reality? (The only Gilmore girls thing I remember about the dream though is Jess being my S/O) I’ve only been focusing on my vampire diaries reality lately, and a while ago I started scripting for a Gilmore girls reality but I kind scrapped the idea. To be fair though I am watching the show atm with my sister, but yesterday I didn’t even watch it?

Throughout the dream I also kept thinking “I can’t wait to tell my sister, and I shouldn’t stay long because I also want to go to my waiting room.” It was over all a strange and frustrating experience, but also one I’ve experienced before. Nothing recently but maybe this happened because about two ish months ago I locked in on shifting again?

Idk but that’s so weird… can someone please tell me why I would dream I shifted but not actually do it???? Why would my brain do that😭 like I’ve had multiple dreams in the past that’ll fail reality checks and or just have a dream about shifting but not actually doing it?

[Also after I woke up from that dream I went back to sleep and had a dream about my actual desired reality BUT it also involved Gilmore girls characters??????????????]

‧ new year's shifting pick a pile ✧ ‧˚₊ ❆ ‧ ₊ ⊹˚

{ i've been meaning to do another collective reading but honestly forgot, but hey it's a new year so... this will just be anything you may need to hear right now. i hope you find what you were looking for, and if i was able to help in any way then i'm glad. and just like any other reading you find, take what resonates and leave what doesn't }

❆ take a deep breath... and choose the pile you're most drawn to...

✿ PILE ONE ⋰˚☆

KEYWORDS/SIGNS: rain, orange slices, pie, hot tea, 777, gloomy weather, allergies, ears ringing, dogs barking/whining, 222, trust, hourglass, boredom, keys, heart ache, homesick, road trips, four leaf clover, golden child, shaking hands

❆ a decision, a choice. is this right? am i making the wrong choice? let’s take a deep breath ok? it seems you are at a crossroads of sorts. perhaps you don’t know what to do with yourself when it comes to your shifting journey. that’s ok! whatever this issue is for you specifically, i believe you already have they answer. let’s slow the roll, take some deep breaths and try to see this clearly. to me it seems you are over consuming information. i suggest you log off of social media for a bit, sit with yourself and look over the information you already have, discard what no longer fits you and keep what works. you know you best! some random person online cannot (unfortunately) fix your supposed problems for you. no matter how much advice you seek, you can only do that. you need to let go of this internal struggle, you are only fighting yourself, creating resistance. if the answers still seem to be foggy to you, perhaps you can meditate and look for the answers there.

❆ it seems your mind might be in the midst of chaos, or perhaps your life is as well. yet when it comes to your shifting journey you may just be on the brink of a spiritual awakening you desire (or need). the clarity is within YOU. it looks like you are walking down this path with a blindfold on, unsure of where you are going, what choices to make. maybe there is something you don’t want to face. but these fears and worries do not need to hold you back. let’s try to use them to your advantage. face what is holding you back and if you just can’t rid it, know that it does not stop you, only shows a different part of yourself.

❆ instead of putting your journey and motivations on others, it’s time to look within. there’s only so much more “new” information you can gain. your journey is yours and yours alone. that doesn’t mean it has to be a lonely one though. trust that you have the answers, and trust that there is still a community for you! having so many different pieces of information and advice forced upon you to try and digest and make use of is not helping you. sit with yourself and ask yourself if there is genuinely anything you still need to learn from others at this point? at what point do you let it all go and just use it to your benefit?

❆ maybe creating some sort of routine will help you as well, setting up some self-discipline. on the flip side you may need to let go of perfectionism as well. you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to. shifting is supposed to be fun. maybe reflect on what you can do to make this all the more enjoyable. let go of the process and remember where you started.

❆ let’s take a moment to give yourself a pat on the back! give yourself space to celebrate your accomplishments, big or small, bright or dim. it’s ok to reflect and give yourself credit for all you’ve done, someone has to, and you deserve it. you are at a place of harmony and balance in your journey. embrace it! know that you already have it, and if necessary take a breather, pause and look around yourself. look at all you’ve achieved! it will still be here for you, even if you take a break from it all. whether it’s here or in your desired reality, you are surrounded by so much love and support. even on your worst days. your vision is clear, if you're ready, know that it is yours, and make that first step. perhaps all you need is a little reassurance, you got this!

KEYWORDS/SIGNS: love, pairing, 555, daydream, interruptions, cats, heartbreak, lonesome, tears, sleeping in, not sleeping enough, castles, cages, 333, 1212, floating

❆ it has been a long journey for you, a hard one at that. you may have found yourself in many setbacks. perhaps you blame yourself, there’s a lot of sadness and anger here. in this moment you can choose forgiveness, forgive yourself and know that it’s all ok. whatever has happened, there’s no use for guilt. open up to a friend, a stranger, someone. vocalize your feelings and hardships. with mistakes you can learn and grow from them, and ultimately come out stronger in the end. show yourself grace and love, and set your eyes on newer and better things. know that no matter what you can still trust yourself. take small steps and build yourself back up. find the romance and beauty in shifting again, it’ll always be there.

❆ i see that you may be someone shifting for love. keep your partner in mind. despite everything, please remember you are deserving of love and happiness. keep your love close to you. just as you wish to be with them, use it to bring you two together. your emotions are not a flaw, feel them, sit with them, BE them. wherever you are and where you want to be, what are you feeling? are you in your bed? perhaps the arms of your lover. whoever you want to be, FEEL IT, let your compassion drive you forward. there’s no need to be embarrassed over your feelings, they are valid, and so are you.

❆ you need to make the decision. you can’t sit in despair forever, pick yourself up and know that there are better things for you. use it all to your advantage, all the bad just as the good. being interrupted during a meditation? that’s fine, it doesn’t have to stop you forever. Distracted? that’s ok, take a deep breath and know that it doesn’t have to hold you back, unless you let it. you don't have to have the most squeaky clean mindset ever to shift, that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense does it? accept where you are at, and accept where you want to go.

A simplified version of how to reality shift

Clarification: you don't need a method!!

• With this method you don't need a script or a routine before shifting.

Steps:

1. Enter a meditative state (any way you want)

2. When you're about to fall asleep, you're there

3. In this state you will begin to see complete darkness (void state, where your intentions are stronger)

4. You will begin to think/visualize what reality you want to go to, where your body is and in what position and you will begin to incorporate your five senses.

5. That is, you begin to become aware of your DR (but said like that it sounds a bit complicated, although it is NOT)

6. When you feel that you have already shifted DO NOT OPEN YOUR EYES, continue concentrating a bit more on your five senses and -try- not to get so excited so as not to run the risk of ""being sent back""

If you don't understand very well about the five senses and "being aware" of your DR, here I explain it a little better

• I put this with "steps" but it was just to organize it a little more, it's a short method actually

things to do with your s/o in honour of valentine’s day (or: things to script if your s/o is currently trapped in the fabric of space-time like a 1940s soldier in a locket)

kiss in every doorway you walk through. just because.

link pinkies instead of holding hands sometimes. just to keep things interesting.

make up a new anniversary. valentine’s day is amateur hour. find a random date and assign it significance. the day you first locked eyes across a crowded room? the day you both almost got hit by a taxi? make up a fake, elaborate backstory if needed. insist it’s the most important date of the year.

bite their sleeve when your hands are full. bonus points if you make eye contact while doing it.

wear something of theirs. a jacket, a sweater, a ring. something that smells like them, something that makes you feel like you belong to each other.

drag them into a photo booth. don’t give them time to think, just pull them in. later, hide a copy of it in their bag. or tape it to their mirror. or slide it into a book they’re reading. let them find it when they least expect it.

learn an entire obscure skill together. forging documents, deciphering ciphers, folding napkins into extravagant birds. something wholly unnecessary but deeply specific. nothing says ‘i love you’ like a hyperfixation you can share.

love each other like you are the last two people on earth who understand what love is. (because maybe you are.)

make them breakfast. not just toast. i mean ridiculous breakfast. pancakes with their initial spelled in syrup, eggs made exactly how they like them, fresh fruit cut into hearts if you’re feeling insane.

go to a bookstore and pick something for each other. something you think they’d love, or something that reminds you of them, or something with a title so absurd it makes you both laugh in the middle of the aisle.

write each other love letters. not texts, not dms. actual letters. fold them up, pass them under the table, seal them with lipstick like a 1950s socialite sending a telegram to her lover overseas.

slow dance in the living room. play something old, something scratchy and filled with longing. press your face into their shoulder. sway like you have all the time in the world.

light candles at dinner, even if you’re just eating pizza. especially if you’re just eating pizza.

draw on each other’s skin. little hearts on their hands. initials on their wrist. a whole mural on their arm if they’ll sit still long enough.

fall asleep on each other. on the couch, in the car, heads leaning together like it’s the most natural thing in the world.

go to a museum and act like the most insufferable art critics alive. invent elaborate meanings behind paintings. whisper things like ‘this piece destroyed me’ in front of tourists.

go somewhere haunted. make up an elaborate backstory for a ghost that definitely does not exist. demand the ghost give you relationship advice.

say ‘i love you’ in new ways. in a different language. in a ridiculous accent. spelled out in alphabet soup. traced onto their back with your finger.

leave them a note somewhere stupid. in their coat pocket, under their pillow, inside the fridge next to the soy milk. something simple. something damning. ("thinking about you." "you are so loved." "i win.")

trace hearts on their arm when they’re talking. act like you’re not doing it.

buy a cheap little ring and put it on their finger like it’s a royal coronation. it could be plastic. it could be candy. what matters is the ceremony of it all.

wear their favourite colour. don’t say anything about it. just let them notice.

　PICK ONE ✶ and let intuition be your guide.

THE TARNISHED COMPACT MIRROR, THE WAX SEAL AND THE MAP.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ּ   * ˖  ་

　　·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING ┊ the tarnished compact mirror.

you pick it up, and the weight surprises you—it’s heavier than it looks, as though it’s been carrying the reflections of centuries. the silver is worn, tarnished in that way where it almost looks like smoke trapped under glass. When you open it, the mirror is cracked but still functional, splitting your face into fragments like you’re some living cubist painting.

SO, WHAT DOES IT MEAN? this is the artefact of self-perception. if asking, “who am i in this moment?” and not trusting the answer. shifting is your MO (master opus, obviously), but this mirror is here to remind you: even when you’re mastering realities, you are the through-line. the cracks in the glass is the self you’ve shed in every DR, your multidimensional fingerprints. but be warned: this mirror doesn’t just show you—it shows the version of you others see, too. every smile, every shadow, every flicker of their perspective. it’s asking: are you as fluid as you think, or are you just trying on new faces to escape the old ones?

in your journey, this object suggests a phase of intense self-reflection. maybe you’re realising that even as you leap dimensions, there’s a “you” who stays constant. or maybe you’re questioning whether the roles you’ve played were ever really yours. either way, this mirror says: own the cracks—they’re your history, your kaleidoscope.

A SHATTERED MIRROR STILL SHOWS THE TRUTH—IT JUST LOOKS BETTER IN PIECES.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ּ ⊹ ˖ ࣪ 

　　·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING ┊ the wax-seal stamp with no engraving.

when you pick this up, your fingers find grooves where a symbol should be. it’s disarmingly smooth, as though it was made for a crest, a mark, a declaration—but someone forgot to finish it. there’s dried red wax crusted along the edges, as if it’s already sealed a hundred letters, but none of them bore your name.

SO, WHAT DOES IT MEAN? this object is all about potential. it’s an artefact of the unsaid, the unclaimed, the could-have-beens. it’s asking: what are you waiting to mark as your own? shifting is the art of writing yourself into stories, but maybe you’ve been forgetting to sign your name at the end. this blank seal is your reminder that you are the creator of your journey—your identity isn’t a pre-set engraving; it’s something you carve anew every time you shift.

the wax is your legacy—the parts of you that already exist in every DR you’ve touched. even if you haven’t seen it, your presence is felt. maybe you’ve been second-guessing whether you’re leaving a mark or just slipping through realities like a shadow. the seal says: even without a design, you’re sealing the deal. your intentions are enough.

this object speaks to a moment where you’re on the verge of something big, but you’re hesitating. maybe you’re wondering if you’re ready, or maybe you’re holding out for a “perfect” moment. the truth is, the seal doesn’t need engraving—it’s what you choose to imprint that matters.

THE BLANK SPACE IS WHERE THE STORY BEGINS.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ּ ⊹ ˖ ࣪ 

　　·. ˚ ༘ NOW READING ┊ the paper map with worn folds.

it’s soft in your hands, the kind of paper that’s been unfolded and refolded a thousand times. there are stains on it—coffee rings, maybe tears. the ink is fading, but the routes are still clear: zig-zagging lines, X’s marking spots, little hand-drawn symbols that mean nothing to anyone but the original cartographer.

SO, WHAT DOES IT MEAN? this is the artefact of guidance and exploration. the map isn’t just a tool; it’s a record of journeys past. it’s been used, loved, and abandoned—but never destroyed. and it’s showing you one thing: you’re not lost—you’re exactly where you need to be.

the X’s are goals you’ve already hit, DRs you’ve already conquered. the stains are the messy parts of the journey—the nights you stayed awake scripting, the mornings you woke up and didn’t feel “there” yet. but the beauty of this map is that it’s a living document. the roads change as you change, and the hand-drawn symbols, those are little pieces of you left behind in every reality.

this object says your journey is not linear—it’s a spiral, looping back to places you thought you’d left behind. maybe you’re revisiting old DRs, or maybe you’re realising that every shift is connected, even if the roads look different. the map is urging you to trust the process—what looks like a dead end might just be a fold waiting to be smoothed out.

THE MAP REMEMBERS, EVEN IF YOU DON'T.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ּ   * ˖  ་

these objects aren’t just trinkets—they’re archetypes of your journey. you’re the cracked mirror, the blank seal, the folded map, all at once. keep them close. and remember: every artefact tells a story, but it’s up to you to write the ending.

i’m so tired of seeing the word minishift

just fucking say you shifted

　　　　things that won't stop you from shifting

　꒰ putting your dr on a pedestal , does not exist. it is not some glass castle suspended in the ether. it is a place like any other, as accessible as a room you haven’t walked into yet.　　

　꒰ fantasising about your dr , does not matter. your brain is not a courtroom and you are not on trial for thought crimes. imagining a place does not exile you from it.　　

　꒰ not knowing everything about your dr , won't impact. you do not need to be a historian of your own life. you do not need to have memorised the census records and economic structures of a world you are simply in.　

　꒰ being too attached to your dr , does not ruin it. urgency does not dismantle possibility. the sky does not fold in on itself every time someone desperately wants rain.　　

　꒰ not being "calm enough" , no one is breathing monkishly through their nose 24/7. you are not required to be an unmoved river stone. people shift after a long day at work. people shift mid-existential crisis. it is not yoga, it is not meditation, it is a thing that happens when it happens.　　

　꒰ doubting yourself from time to time , irrelevant. you do not need to pass a faith test. you do not need to be baptised in unwavering conviction. you just need to assume. doubt is a background noise, not a locked door.　　

　꒰ external validation , unnecessary. your reality is not waiting for someone else to confirm its legitimacy. you do not need a jury of peers nodding solemnly at your experiences. this is not an academic dissertation. you do not need footnotes and sources and a professor’s approval.　　

　꒰ "trying too hard" , not a thing. effort does not push it further away. want does not make it shy away. this is not an uncatchable fish. this is not a paradox where wanting something too much means you will never have it.　　

　꒰ failing to shift multiple times , irrelevant. past attempts do not predict future outcomes. you are not an athlete counting losses. you are not a gambler on a losing streak. every attempt is new. every moment is unburdened by the weight of the last one. 　

　꒰ an inconsistent sleep schedule , doesn’t matter. you are not being graded on your circadian rhythm. shifting does not belong exclusively to people with 8 hours of uninterrupted rem. 　

　꒰ using multiple shifting methods , neutral. you are not hexing yourself by switching it up. they are not magic spells, they are just tools. they are ways to organise your approach, not laws of the universe.　

　꒰ shifting while sick or in pain , possible. you do not need to be in peak physical condition. you are not signing up for a marathon, you are existing. bodies exist in all states. you are allowed to exist in all states.　

　꒰ not “feeling close” to shifting , doesn’t mean anything. shifting is not a feeling to be unlocked. you do not need to sense it coming like a change in the weather. it does not always announce itself.　

　꒰ having trouble visualising , won’t stop you. not everyone sees things like a movie in their head. imagination is not just images. it’s thoughts, impressions, instincts. a blind person can shift. a person with aphantasia can shift.　

　꒰ not affirming constantly , does not matter. you do not need to chant like a monk or plead sweet nothings into the void 24/7.　

　꒰ being distracted mid-shifting attempt , not fatal. you are not required to have monk-like focus. people shift thinking about their homework. people shift thinking about dinner. people shift thinking about absolutely nothing at all.　

　꒰ not having a specific shifting method , does not stop you. people shift lying down. people shift sitting up. people shift standing. people shift in moving cars. you do not need a formula to do something natural.　

Reminder: you are not lesser if you've been struggling with manifestation or shifting. You don't deserve to feel shame for being in a stage everyone goes through. Struggling now doesn't mean you'll struggle forever. This is not a reflection of who you are. There is nothing wrong with you and you are just as worthy as anyone else. You are going to be ok.
