Welcome to my blog! I go by the name Kya, and I’m a 23 year old Black shifter. I’ve been part of the shifting community for over 5 years+ and have had my on-and-off moments with shifting. Since joining Tumblr, I hope to make new friends and connect with people who share similar interests!
Main dr:
The originals
Will shift to later in my journey :
Outerbanks
Royal dr
Modern Hogwarts University
Full moon dr
i get the best results when i stop worrying about the “how”/“when” and just know it’s gonna happen… no matter what.
I just got done watching sinners and now I wanna add smoke and stack to my tvd dr 😭
I love Klaus's speech impediment. That lisp is so cute to me. He talks so fast and has these long ass speeches and I can just sit there to listen to him talk for hours.
I love his american accent too. He talks fast so it doesn't sound right but I personally love hearing it. He doesn't do it often but when he does I swoon.
Why you acting like shifting is a 9-5 job? BABE, it’s effortless. You don’t TRY, you just DO.
you cannot become what you already are.
"but i want" - you cannot become what you already have
"but i wanna be the one who-" there is no "one" you do not exist in a singular form. you cannot become what you already are.
"i need this physically because it reflects my-" there is no delayed reflection when you are constantly experiencing yourself. you cannot become what you are.
being moots with ppl who i dont share any drs / interests with is so silly. like yes bestie i have no clue what you’re talking about but ilysm 😭
I asked my dr self how to shift, here's how it went
In my last shifting attempt I successfully connected to my DR self and asked her how to shift, here's a paraphrased version of our conversation.
DISCLAIMER I'm just sharing MY experience in the hope that it might help someone. I'm not saying this is the ultimate truth and you don't have to agree with it. If it doesn't resonate just let it go. Thanks, enjoy <3
CR self: I don’t know what I have to do to shift.
DR self: Shifting isn’t something you do with your mind, you do it with your body.
CR self: Yeah... I’m pretty sure that goes against the definition of shifting… Everybody knows that shifting is a mind thing.
[I could feel my DR self getting irritated at my answer, mostly because I was just regurgitating info I’d learned online instead of letting her explain.]
DR self: What I mean is, the more you’re in your head about it — the more you think about it, overthink it, try to make it rational, try to find THE way to do it, THE step-by-step process that will make you shift — the harder it’s going to be for you.
The more you think of shifting as something you have to figure out, rather than as an action, something you don’t overthink, something you just do, the more you’ll struggle. That’s what I mean by it being a “physical” thing.
Of course, you’re not shifting your body! But shifting isn’t a riddle, something you have to understand or figure out — it’s an action. People shift all the time, even those who know nothing about shifting. They certainly didn't try to figure it out before successfully doing it…
CR self: So… how?
DR self: That’s the issue. You don’t need to rationalize it. You don’t need to know how to do it. You just need to know that you can do it — just like everyone else — and decide to do it.
Don’t approach it from a logical point of view. See it as an action.
Decide that you’re going to shift, and accept that you will shift because you’ve decided so.
When I use my powers, I just use them because I know I was born with them, I know I have them and I know they’re going to work.
Do I know the science behind my powers? No.
Does that stop them from working? No.
CR self: So it’s about knowing or believing I will shift while doing the method?
DR self: Not exactly. You don’t have to 100% believe you’re going to shift. You can have doubts and still shift — that’s normal, it’s human! What you need to understand is that you can shift. Shifting isn’t like learning a foreign language — it’s your native language. It's just that you’ve spent years speaking another one and can’t let yourself believe you still remember it and can speak it.
But if you let go, if you allow yourself to slip into your true nature as a shifter, you’ll realize you’ve never forgotten how to do it — you’ve always been able to.
Hope this was somewhat helpful,
xoxo Hydra
☀︎ YOU’RE NOT BEING PRODUCTIVE, YOU’RE LAZY AND AFRAID ☀︎
You have all the information, why aren’t you applying. You tell me you have been in this community for 6 months, a year, 2 years+, but how many of those days you’ve spent in this community have you actually applied, how many of those nights did you actually apply and don’t just fall asleep after 5 seconds.
And i know why you’re lazy, it’s because you’re scared, you’re scared of inducing process, whether it be success or failure. You make yourself busy with scripts and subliminals, “i’ll script this really cool thing first”, “i’ll scroll a little on tumblr first” “lemme just look at the success story hashtag before i do it, it really motivates me” You try and distract your self, you delude yourself into thinking you’re being productive but really you don’t want to, if you wanted to you wouldn’t be here and I will ALWAYS stand by that. You put it off until the last minute and then when it “doesn’t work” you run back to tumblr acting like you actually did anything.
a really good analogy from @archsariel333 - “you buy the pens, the notebook, you plan for the book you’re going to write but, you never write it”
“let me just add this one thing to the plan”, “let me look at inspo for book covers and art styles for illustration”, “let me go to my book writers group on tumblr and see if they have anymore advice for me even tho i know how to write a fucking book”
I know it’s comforting and validating to be in the “waiting period”, the period of anticipation. You want to go shopping for a vacation, pack your suitcase, look at reviews on social media, plan the pics you’re going to take, but getting on the actual plane can be scary, you ask yourself “what if they deny my boarding pass”, “what if i fail to make it on time”, “what if im not eligible to fly for whatever reason”, you don’t want to leave your comforting circumstances and even the trip itself scares you just a little, so you cope by buying all the vacation outfits in the world, saving inspo pics into a pinterest board, looking at vlogs of other people going to that place. You can’t bring yourself to get on the fucking plane.
You need to apply, and properly, 2024 is almost over, the amount of weeks we have left isn’t even in the double digits anymore, I don’t want you to make it to the end of this DECADE still keeping the tumblr “foryou” page company, watching people coming and going feeling paralysed as people who came here later than you pass you by. I know the feeling sucks but whose fault is that?
I want you to scrap the amount you’ve been here. Since you’re the operant power right? I don’t care how many weeks, months, years you’ve been here, scrap it, you’re going to start afresh and you’re going to actually apply, when you have the time, you’re not going to go back to your notes app, notion or pinterest to script some more, you’re going to apply.
A lot of you have the knowledge that majority of the world doesn’t and time on your hands, do you know how powerful and extremely fortunate you are, to have time AND knowledge? i don’t think alot of you understand how much of a privilege that is you are unstoppable yet you stop yourself out of fear that you will “fail” to tap into the void and let yourself down. You are so privileged to know what you know and to have the time to apply it, so do it, your not gonna scroll on tiktok for a few more minutes or shove a million subliminals down your throat to “prep yourself” you’re just going to take a breath and do it. Induce pure consciousness, and if you fall asleep scrap that assumption and do it again.
Look at your life right now, do you honestly like it, do you like envying others for having what you can have at the snap of your fingers. Do you like the life you are living?
I want you to tell yourself that you will not be the reason for your own demise. you will NOT be the reason that it’s 2026,27,28 and so on and you don’t have what you want.
please just go and apply, i don’t even know you guys and it hurts watching you kill time when you could’ve had everything a day ago, an hour ago heck even 5 minutes ago.
apply apply apply, don’t let this feeling be the reason you “fail” 💋🍑
"if you've shifted then why would you shift back" NOT EVERYONE HATES THEIR LIFEEEEUH SOME PEOPLE LIKE IT HERE TOOOOOOOOOUH
