#shifter rambles

[amusedforher]

you shift every millisecond.

you shift every second.

you shifted as you read this.

you shift every waking moment.

[lovebvni]

i love every fucking post i’ve seen. i’m so happy for all of you. waiting for more and more stories to unfold this year.

i have serious hope. it’s the end of the first month of 12. imagine what you can do in that following time.

wishing you all the best. <33 you’re inspiring me <3

"You are Not Your Body, Not Your Mind, Or Your Brain-

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Not your thoughts or feelings, you are not your DNA

You am the observer, You're a witness of life" -the song uses "I", but for the sake of the point i changed it to "you".

This post gets a little out in orbit, but i hope it's a fun ride nevertheless. We'll be addressing how nothing can stop you from shifting, how "shifting methods" can be looked at from a new perspective, addressing thoughts and limiting beliefs, and how you really *really* don't need to believe you'll shift in order to do so- as well as why that's the case.

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

When you come to understand that you need not identify with all the noise and goings on of your cr, it can become exceptionally easy to turn away from any limiting thoughts, and lightly embrace your dr self.

- ☁️You are neither your Cr self or your Dr self, and you are also both, depending on what you're looking at.

Your consciousness awareness is a flashlight, your 4d are the shadow puppets, and your 3d are the shadows. You make the shadow puppets, and you use your flashlight (that always stays on you) so create any image you could imagine. If you want a different shadow, make a different puppet and use it in front of that flashlight.

- ☁️You are the creator of your reality. The 3d you see around you is a reflection of that creation. Now, the directness of the reflection isn't always so direct, it goes off the state of being you *are*, not the one you want to be. Are you chillin at the idea of being able to wake up anywhere, or is this cr body trying to tell you that you can't or won't? Want to know how to prove it wrong?

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

If anti-shifters can shift, just by feeling like "i don't *think* it's real, but if it were it'd be easy", then there is nothing stopping you. If shifters can shift without even so much as setting an intention, there is nothing stopping you.

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

I'm going to talk light science for a sec, but it's just for the sake of visual representation. During the big bang (as i recall) everything that was once together and whole, essentially exploded and pieces scatted everywhere.

Now, if this is the case, I kind of like to think about it as one ginormous jawbreaker separating into millions and billions of little jawbreakers. Now here's the thing, allllll those jawbreakers, every last one, has a little piece of the core inside them. That, in this example, is like your conciousness- that connection to all your drs and manifestations exists.

Your subconscious mind's job is partially to keep you safe in the background- but remember- you are not your brain, so you are not, at your core, this subconscious. You are not the little doubts and frustrations that pop up. You don't need to listen to any doubts, or "am i doing this right" or "what if-" or "can i-"

- ☁️You have your own little piece of source inside you, that is connected to allllllll the other little pieces everywhere, because at one point, everything was one. (purely for the sake of examples of how "you are already your dr self" ) You are already directly connected to your dr self, you're just looking at the 3d aspects instead of the 4d. You can't change a reflection, without changing what is being reflected. Shift your awareness to change the reflection. (this goes for manifestion too)

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

For those familiar with harry potter, let's try another example. If you make a new friend, and you wanted to floo to their home, you would have to set up the connection in the floo network (if you weren't already connected). Once you set up this connection, it says unless one or both people close it.

- ☁️Connecting to your dr self is very similar. You contact the floo network (your conscious awareness) and you turn your attention to the desired place you would like to "unlock", like a fireplace, there was never a closed door, it just might not have been an activated path. You can stand in that fireplace all day, saying the name over and over and over, but unless you connect to the floo network, you're not going anywhere (not through that method at least)

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

☁️This "awareness" that I speak of is simply just your attention. You are the observer, and even after doing this for so many years, even I still occasionally forget that. The beauty is, you don't stop being "the observer" just because you stop being consciously aware. This is why it's important, imo, to sometimes just turn your attention away from unwanted states. You woke up here again? Okay, doesn't matter. Stop trying to change the shadows. Remember, you get what you are being, and shifts are instant.

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

Now, side note, you don't need to walk around like you're in your dr all day. If you can't do that- that's fine! Just become neutral to it- it's just one reality in infinite others you get to explore. This isn't permanent. You are not stuck. If i say that and your mind tries to disagree, just let it do its thing. You know who you are at your core, what difference does one mind out of infinite ones make?

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

☁️Methods Are Not Hard and Fast Rules. Methods are Malleable☁️

I've used methods, and i've not used methods. My first shift was literally just me (unintentionally) crashing out due to not being able to shift, and eventually, after all the tears had fallen, the pent up emotions had been felt, my dr was rightfully shoved right off the pedastool, and because I had been embodying my dr self in weeks past, I had already built the shadow puppet. Once I finally stopped trying to *get* somewhere, I woke up in my Dr. I didn't need to add anything, I actually just needed to Let Go of my limiting beliefs- and not go back to them like an ex down bad lol. I broke up with "can't shift" or "won't shift" (or maybe it broke up with me lol)

*All of this to say, you don't need a method. I was already connected and in my dr in the 4d, but this was before I learned about all of that- it wasn't intentional. If I knew that all i needed to do was connect the floos, and just chill with knowing I can walk in and out of the 3d (as consciousness) I probably would've shifted sooner. But that's just me-*

- ☁️It's like walking on a trail with this stunning view at the end, and they have one of those poles in the middle to keep vehicles off. You, as just a person (just conscious awareness) can easily walk around it. Now, if you were in a car, you have to get out first. That doesn't mean that it's the wrong path, or you're not allowed to walk it. It just means that you might have to park the car. The car is just a vehicle- it won't be gone when you come back down from the hill. Your cr self doesn't stop existing, you just stop being *directly* aware of it in your dr.

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊

Now, who are methods good for? Methods are excellent for anyone who just feels like they need a little more of a solid grasp on their dr and dr selves, people who get distracted easily, and really anyone who wants one. The important thing is just that you don't *need* one- I still use methods, not even really to help me shift, but because i think they're fun!

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

A note on states:

Rather than asking shifters "what made you shift", i implore you to try, "what does it feel like to be a shifter". For me, it's like knowing you have a fully stocked kitchen. I know that I could go and make amazing food anytime i want, but right now i'm not hungry. I satiated my thirst for my drs in my 4d imagination before ever actually interacting with them in the 3d. I shift, not only because it's fun and i enjoy it- but because that's just the result of this process- it's the law. Reality reflects out.

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

☁️*The Rational Mind*☁️

For those who are stuck on the "rational" side, I want to say that time, physical reality, and the workings of consciousness, aren't always very rational things- but there are plenty of irrational sounding things in the world- especially new things. You don't need to know how shifting works to shift. It doesn't have to feel "rational" to shift. You can fly on a plane with no idea how it works (a hundred ton tube of metal miles in the air??). I think what i'm trying to say, is that if it doesn't seem rational, you may just have to adjust your framework and your perspective.

- The perspective of a pilot might seem more rational when looking at all those buttons, as opposed to someone who's never seen a plane, ya know? Rational is subjective. I think it's rational that I currently have 5 drs that i live my life in. To me, it's perfectly rational that I can manifest anything i want. To me, it's perfectly rational that the 3d is an outwards expression of our internal states- it's just the drama being performed from the script I wrote. That's normal to me- but it wasn't always. The state was always there for me to inhabit and put on, but i actually had to inhabit it and put it on, ya know? It's simple, not necessarily easy for all

The more time you allow yourself to observe your desired outcome, off of the pedastool, seeing it as just an additional reality, 1. the closer you get to feel your dr to you because you're not paying attention to conflicting evidence, and 2. the sooner you shift

- ☁️Remember, reality comes from you, it doesn't happen to you.

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

☁️*Thoughts*☁️

It does not matter if you have one realities thoughts in another reality. It doesn't matter if you're thinking about your cr (events, sounds, emotions) in your dr, because you are still shifting you at your core. You're still going to have this realities memories (unless you scripted them out), so why wouldn't you be allowed to think about it? And even if you did script them out, reacting to blaring red alarm bells whenever it happens probably isn't helping.

- ☁️You're expanding your awareness, not necessarily moving it like "only allowed to be cr" and "only connected to dr right now".

- That's why a lot of shifters say it doesn't feel like anything- because it doesn't. My ratio of dr to cr thoughts when i shift can be as close as 99% cr and 1% dr- not that it even matters because again, you are not your mind, or your thoughts, or this body- you are the awareness of them.

- Don't get too caught up in your Crs 3d, it's more malleable than you think, but you can only mold it as much as you let yourself. There can be an overlap in thoughts/feelings while you're shifting, that's perfectly normal. I have overlaps while i'm literally in my dr- it's okay I promise. You can still shift if you're not solely thinking about your dr all the time.

☁️ "you cant shift" is meaningless to a shifter, so make it normal to feel meaningless to you. YOU know you can shift, so what does it matter? Let it go- treat it like someone just trying to pick a fight with you- it's not worth your time. walk away, and let it go. pick up your dr self in imagination instead :)

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

☁️Some last little notes: ☁️

If you're at the end of your method or attempt, and you know know what to do next, but you can't fall asleep, I would focus on one thing- surrender. Trust that you have made the puppet, you shined your light on it- and now the shadow has no choice but to appear.

Remember, "The time it takes your assumption to become fact, your desire to be fulfilled, is directly proportionate to the naturalness of your feeling of already being what you want to be - of already having what you desire."

You are fully capable of giving it to yourself now. You already have unlimited access to the bottomless well of creative power inside you. Just look beyond the physical, that's where the magic happens.

You don't need to know when you'll shift- and i'll make another post about this in depth cause I have some analogies rattling around in this brain.

Detatch from the outcome. By putting your attention or your dr self, you are eliminating the (illusionary but still "real") physical gap between you and your dr self.

For those of you with vastly different dr selves (compared to cr), I invite you to focus on more mundane tasks. How does it feel to walk in that body? How does it feel to breathe? How does it feel to sit down? To stand up?

☁️***If the goal is to normalize the feeling of having your desire (like a kid the day after christmas) so that your 3d projects that you have your desire, then all you have to do, outside of all the rigmarole, is just- have it. Walk around entertaining the idea you can literally go anywhere, anytime. It doesn't matter if you can't see it right way- your job isn't to *see* your dr self, your job is to normalize being your dr self- the version of you that's successfully shifted. ***☁️

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

I'll try not to go down this last rabbit hole too deep- but time is not linear. If you assume the state of the wish fufilled- you have it Now. All there is, is the now, and the illusion of past and future. Like, Harry Potter saying "well I knew I could do it this time... Because I had already done it." - You are pure consciousness at your core, all of the time, ever-connected to everything else.

You don't need to know how or when your desire will come. If you are normalizing your dr and getting familiar with fulfilling your wishes (not to *get* something, but just to experience) you are already doing everything right. You don't need to "wait" for some desire like a package at the door, you just need to realize it's already in your hands. It always has been, and it always will be :)

When you have a desire, treat it like a pothole- Fill in the *lack* with your wonderful human imagination :) If you carry this habit throughout all of your realities, it helps with more than just shifting.

Hope yall have a good day, and best of luck to you!! 33

ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚

edit: I don't know if i addressed this directly enough: Once you feel as though your dr and dr self is as normal as *you* are (in the 4d, again you at your core, not thoughts- thoughts just reflect the state too) then you're good!! no, seriously, that's it. you've fulfilled the wish- and as long as you just keep it like that, it will have no choice but to express itself in the 3d. it. will. have. no. choice. you did it, you're good. let yourself just be good.

you don't try to get something you already have- when you don't feel as though you need to "get" it or "chase" it, you have it. does that make sense? if having something in the 3d, means you have it in the 4d, then by following that logic and adding in ☁️"as above, so below, as within, so without" ☁️ as the framework, we can easily reverse the equation. 4d first- 3d follows. You won't be fulfilled because you have that thing- you have that thing because you've fulfilled the state of having it and/or you let go of the state of lack. Drop the lack from the desire, and what do you have? the desire! badda bing badda boom ( *it's a worldwide when i step in the room* )

Quotes i relate to shifting that kinda make me gag

[itspheenixbaby]

some alternate things i scripted about the world in my kpop dr

i originally kept my dr the same as my cr. but when i grew out of that my obsession with world building and social science kicked in full force.

now playing...prism / m-flo

the world is futuristic. think love and deepspace esque. we have holograms, high speed travel and advanced energy production. everywhere is equally very developed, but all in a way that suits the culture & environment instead of working against it. the world is modern, beautiful & clean. everywhere is colorful. the world is vibrant, sleek, efficient, full of personality and perfectly balanced.

painting is a highly respected and popular profession since 2020. maximalist, unique, topical and expressive art. with lots of color and varying art styles. artists are able to reach the same levels of success as they couldve in the pre-modern times.

acoris. a spanish brand that sells non alcoholic beverages in various flavors. everyone uses it, its sold everywhere, and has an incomprehensibly large "fanbase". the drink itself gives people a restless high, and insane boosts of energy. though not addictive or classified as a drug (frequently debated).

in person shopping is more popular. high quality, dirt cheap, and somehow ethically sourced trendy clothing are sold in "mall brands". there are thousands of different "mall brands" across the world in every country. they have differing styles per region/brand image reflecting the trends, culture and local materials of the area.

im addicted to my phone and so is the majority of gen z. i want to script phones out entirely, but a modern idols lifestyle is heavy on social media. i settled for ambiguously saying theres little to no technology addiction.

the entire population has a elemental manipulation abilities tied directly to zodiac. for example scorpios have water powers & aries have fire. this has just always been a thing, but for years scientists have been stumped by why. on their own these abilities are weak, but can be stronger with training and teamwork. because of this, humanity as a whole is more connected to nature.

contemplating scripting antartica is fully populated and not frozen. itd be hyper futuristic and very diverse. possibly considered every countries property or something so you can just go in and out? thatd be such a mess but it seems fun.

“you cant race change!! its fetishizing poc and minimizing their suffering!!!!”

but what if i shifted to be white? what then?😭

✈︎ background ; I moved to Gotham to help my brother recover from an injury. He’s in the police force and suffered two broken legs due to regular Gotham drama. He needed someone to get him to physical therapy, help him around the house, etc.

I was raised in Gotham so a lot of my friends are still there so I already have a friend group. I also do social media bc it’s fun !! I live near my brother and as usual, my dad is a doctor so I inherit some of his skills and he teaches me. I can spend my days at work in the morning, working at my pottery/art studio in the evening.

customization .aka looks :

﹒chocolate brown doe eyes flecked with gold around the irises

﹒auburn princess curls, silky locks, and the lasting scent of lavender shampoo

﹒perfect white teeth with full lips and a signature glossy look

﹒skin that’s effortlessly tan in summer and fair in winter with a 5’5 figure for a height difference between any s/os

﹆ by day… i’m a primary school art teacher who spends my mornings with kids, teaching them art and expanding their minds of perhaps gossiping with the fifth grade girls or encouraging a boy to draw a dog flying an airplane. Coworker drama is always a must, especially when they unknowingly talk about my good looking partner they have no idea I’m dating.

Evenings can be a myriad of things, baking, pottery, or grading papers. The pottery studio down the street is in fact owned by me and my friend, Maria. Not only do I teach elementary, but I host afternoon classes (not limited to kids, they’re for anyone who wants to learn!) I engage in other art endeavors, despite my cheap and shoddy apartment I do have the funds to purse my passion. (Because- why would I be poor in my dr?)

﹆ by night… i’m well… asleep? Or perhaps I’m hanging off the arm of a Wayne at a late night gala or keeping Oracle company while surveying the streets of Gotham. But let’s not be silly, I adore my beauty sleep.

and what’s currently playing … ⌗!! ꒰ merry christmas, please don’t call ꒱ 🎧ྀི
