Dreaming and Lucid dreaming are Shifting.
- Dreams: a series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person's mind during sleep.
- Lucid dreaming: dreams when you know you're dreaming while you're asleep.
- Shifting: a practice where individuals shift their awareness to alternate realities.
Since our awareness is shifting every second, what happens when we go to sleep? When our awareness stops being aware what happens?
Kids, kids, your awareness stops being aware here when you sleep. What about other realities?
When your conscious self goes to sleep, your subconscious self, which is connected to every reality imaginable what does it to?
It explores.
It explores all the different realities without limitations. Those are dreams. Every dream you've had is a different reality.
You are unaware while dreaming. You can't control these dreams. Why? Because did you think you can control your reality before stumbling upon manifesting or shifting? It's conditioning that is common in most of your dreams because you are conditioned that way, to believe reality cannot be controlled. This is why sometimes you can't differentiate between dreams and reality. Because they're both the same thing, one just happens when you're asleep.
We dream every night. The average is about 4-6 times each night. You shift every night. You remember some, you forget some. For me to explain why we forgot I'd have to make a different post because it'd get very long. For now just use Google.
"But why do my dreams revolve around this reality?" you ask. Because you're dreaming with the beliefs and conditioning of this reality.
If you were born in a magical world and were aware there, then your dreams will revolve around magic.
Shifting happens when you become aware of a different reality, When you've known only a particular reality your whole life, you subconscious only goes to different versions of that really. (I said subconscious because your conscious is asleep)
This is not fixed by the way. Like when you see a movie and you dream about it. When you become aware of a different world, you shift to (dream about) a different world.
Emotions play a important role in dreaming as well. They decide what your dream will be in different ways. Example: When you have a crush, you get a dream of being with them, it was fueled by your emotions of wanting to be with them. That there, is a reality where you are in a happy relationship with your crush.
Dreams are you shifting realities while unaware based on your beliefs, emotions, thoughts and conditioning of this particular reality.
Wait, beliefs, emotions, thoughts and conditioning? That sounds familiar. What else does that make? Oh yeah, your CR.
Now, since we've got the first topic covered, why can we control some dreams and not the other? People train themselves to lucid dream. It is possible to control all your dreams. When you become aware of the spiritual aspect of things, you get more vivid, lucid dreams because that is you taking control back whether it's a dream or your reality.
You can still lucid dreaming without ever knowing any spiritual aspect of anything. Why? Because shifting is the essence of existence. You shift every second, even sleeping.
You become aware in a dream and control it much like you scripted you can similar to your dr. It's the same.
I know what you're thinking, if they're the same, why does lucid dreaming and shifting feel so different?
Because you're aware of the fact that you're lucid dreaming. Emphasis on the dreaming here. You know you can control it, but you think you're still dreaming. 'Dreaming' for us defines that it's not real when in fact it is. If you changed your awareness to it being an actual reality, congratulations you've shifted with full awareness this time.
Dreaming and Lucid dreaming are a part of shifting. They are sub categories of shifting.
When you DREAM you're unaware of it being a dream, you think it's happening right now, but your conscious is asleep.
When you LUCID DREAM you're only half aware because you still believe that it's a 'dream' that you control.
When you SHIFT you're fully aware. Your conscious and subconscious are both in focused on one reality in front of you, like in your CR.
Everything you know or don't know is a part of shifting. Shifting is everything. Dreams and Lucid dreaming are not that different after all. They are different experiences yes. But the core of shifting is the same everywhere.
I actually knew this for sometime, but it didn't hit me until a few days ago. How much we underestimate the mind in our daily life. Thinking shifting is something that leads us somewhere, when in reality it's us that leads shifting. You're all shifters because you're human. Human nature is shifting itself.
I've experimented in my dreams, becoming lucid and telling my mind to shift me places, to shift me back. Just whatever you can think of. The amount of power we hold in our dreams is the same as we hold in our daily life. Why the difference?
Time isn't real, so is reality. Who's to know except you?
This is my belief. My knowledge. My knowing. You don't have to accept this. You can think they're different, not at all related. That I'm just spouting nonsense. But then you are forgetting that we're shifting 24/7 why would that not include everything including dreams?
I'm open to opinions and questions. Please be civil and do not fight regarding this. Do not spread misinformation.
How I First got into the Void/ Pure Consciousness
I know many of you have spent a long time trying to get into the Void or induce it. I know it seems EXTREMELY HARD but I promise you it is very simple.
I’m going to keep this short and sweet because I don’t believe in making blogs 10 pages long.
When I first induced it I wasn’t trying to get into the void, I was trying to shift to my Preferred reality (I don’t like saying DR because every reality is just a reality, no need to put it on a pedestal).
I knew about the void but in the end it wasn’t my goal, however you can shift from being in the void state and that’s what caused my first shifting experience even though it was short lived because I freaked out.
Now to what I done to ‘Accidentally’ get there step by step.
FIRST - I got tired of scrolling on Tumblr for the answer and I was fed up with myself. I told myself, “If everyone else can shift, then I can too” I had a feeling of determination and I knew that nothing would hold me back. (You don’t need that feeling, just trust in yourself)
SECOND - I laid down in a comfortable position on my bed it was around 11 o clock at night. I closed my eyes and used a visualization method/ technique although it’s not really a method I just visualized my preferred reality.
THIRD - I became so engulfed into my visualization that I forgot that I was visualizing and I forgot my body. When I say I was engulfed I was ENGULFED. Eventually I fell asleep, I don’t even remember falling asleep.
FOURTH - I become aware during my sleep but it’s not sleep I didn’t feel my body or anything the only thing I felt was my rapid heart beat. I could feel my hearing going in and out like It was being sucked out and it was a silence so silent that it was deafening.
FIFTH - I calmed myself down and was mainly focused on my thoughts, and that’s when I came to the conclusion I had to be in the Void, so I quickly thought about being in my Preferred reality and in the blink of an eye I was there.
SIX - When i got there I still wasn’t fully aware of my body and everything was freaking me out so I thought about going back and I was back in the void and from there I drifted off into a dream.
As you’ve read I did nothing that requires effort, nothing that requires a 100 step routine. So stop over doing it and trust yourself. Of course I’ll add more if anyone needs me too and explain it better but that’s the basic of what I done, I hope this helps some realize how simple it actually is.
wow this actually made a lot of sense to me
Letting go and what it actually is.
Everyone takes letting go too far. It is a simple thing. It does not require any effort. The purpose of letting go is not to make you forget about everything that you want or acting like you have it already even when you don't believe it.
It is a reminder. It is a reminder of your true self. That you will experience your desires because that's how reality works. That you can do whatever you want and not worry because reality passes through you and you experience it with what you choose. It's supposed to be a easy. Because it is easy. There is nothing you need to do to let go except the thing that you want to do.
Here's what it's not:
You're not supposed to forget about your desire.
You're not supposed to stop scripting for your DR (or anything dr related).
You're not supposed to stop and 'move on' from your desire.
You're not supposed to force the flow of your thoughts towards already having it.
You're not supposed to distract yourself whenever the thought of your desire arises.
You're not supposed to do a million methods and breathe thinking that 'I let it go now' only to spiral into 'no I didn't' again.
Here's what it is:
Whatever you want it to be.
Doing whatever the fuck you want to do and not judging yourself for it (Includes having doubts, spiralling, feeling whatever you want and any 'negative' thing you can think of).
That's it. That's what letting go actually is. It's just trusting yourself and if you think that it's not that then you don't know enough about how our realities work. How we work. This is why I keep on telling y'all to educate yourself properly regarding shifting and everything that it is. This is literally it. Your doubts, feelings and everything physical is unrelated to shifting. You will shift regardless.
"How do I trust myself then?" You ask me looking so stupid because how the fuck am I supposed to know that I'm not you. You know yourself best. Bloggers cannot help with everything, I'm just sitting behind a screen showing you the map, you have to walk it yourself. Only YOU can change yourself and only YOU know yourself enough to change.
If you want to think about your desire 24/7 do it. If you want to daydreaming thinking about your dr do it. Want to script for 10 hours? Go get some coffee. Want to rant how annoying everyone in your cr is while changing your assumptions about them? Go off slay or whatever. Spiraled again? Doesn't matter keep doing that until you stop naturally. Let yourself breathe and exist and feel.
you will shift ( hypnotizes you )
ᯓ★ 3 days is all it should take you to manifest if you persist without wavering! Nothing should take longer than 3 days!!!
ᯓ★ Affirm, To saturate your mind for the next 3 days.
ᯓ★ Do NOT think against it or waver. Persist. It's already done. Be in the state of wish fullfilled.
ᯓ★ Saturate ur mind everytime you think of your desire.
ᯓ★ Meditate on it. (Like, focused affirming)
ᯓ★ Don't let the 3d determine anything, if u catch yourself thinking where is it or why it's not here, correct yourself!! Don't accept the 3d, 4d is what matters.
ᯓ★ The truth is whatever you decide, it is.
ᯓ★ Robotic affirming is literally foolproof.
ᯓ★ Don't quit and don't give up. Just keep affirming.
ᯓ★ stop fucking waiting. It's already yours. It's already done. Manifestation is not a process. You already have it. You're not trying to manifest. "You either have it or you don't"
(my another post)
"if you assume your desire and live there as though it were true, no power on earth can stop it from becoming a fact."
Get off of Tumblr you don't need to know more about the law of assumption, you already know. You already know what to do. ‼️
And watch sammy 🔥🔥🔥
i’m just going to scooch in here and put cowboy jason todd right here if u don’t mind 🤲🏽
engaging in my main DRs source material and being overwhelmed by deep longing and genuine homesickness
and i haven't even shifted yet
my outlook on shifting: last thursdayism
one thing I struggle with most about shifting is allowing myself to believe that I am already in my dr. its not that I don't believe it, I just find it a difficult concept to grasp. I don't think human brains are designed to comprehend that you can exist everywhere all at once. I just couldn't find a way to make that idea stick!
something that really helped was this post by @hrrtshape: https://www.tumblr.com/hrrtshape/774373018477674496/okayyyyy-helloooo-you-shifted-pack-it-up?source=share
it really changed and shaped the way I look at shifting- it doesn't have to be this repetitive, long, thought process- you can use your inability to comprehend the enormity of the universe for good!!!!
this is where last thursdayism comes in. I read about it a while ago and it literally blew my mind. last thursdayism is the philosophical idea that the universe could've been created last thursday- you cannot prove any moment exists apart from the present. aliens could've come down from mars, per say, and made all of human history- artefacts can be fabricated, memories can be false- all you can truly know for sure is that you're here now, in this absolute nanosecond.
so, what is to say you haven't been in your dr this whole time? you shift every second- what's to say you haven't just come from a totally different reality, and you just have absolutely no idea. its when you really let your brain try and figure this one out, wear itself out, spinning itself in circles- that shifting becomes a whole lot easier.
OKAYYYYY HELLOOOO YOU SHIFTED??!?? PACK IT UP MASTER SHIFTER 😩🫶🏽
BAE WHAT WAS THE METHOD PLEASE THESE ALMOST SHIFTS AND SHIFTING FOR TWO SECONDS ARE EATING ME ALIVE HELP A BISH OUTTTT
the anti-method (a.k.a., you were never here to begin with).
౨ৎ this isn’t a method (well, sorta). no steps, no trying, no reaching. it’s a glitch. a realisation. a quiet little crack in the mirror. it did make *me* shift !!!
there was never a door to open. never a distance to cross. you were never locked out. just lost in a dream, trying to wake up when you were already awake.
people talk about shifting like it’s a journey, a climb, a thing to chase. but what if it was always just a memory?? something lodged in the back of your mind, waiting for you to remember it? like a word on the tip of your tongue. like déjà vu.
you were already there. you just forgot.
i , lie or sit still. don’t try. don’t force. just let yourself exist, soft and untethered. feel your body like it’s not yours. just a borrowed costume, a dress-up game you forgot you were playing. limbs are foreign. the weight is someone else’s problem.
ii , ask yourself. " WHAT IF I ALREADY SHIFTED AND I JUST...FORGOT? " not “what if i go there,” not “what if i shift.” but what if i was always there? what if i just... blanked out for a sec?
iii , your brain will (probably) panic. it’ll start grasping at straws, trying to prove you’re still here. trying to reattach you to the illusion. let it fumble. let it glitch. just keep thinking :
◞ i already shifted. i just forgot. ◞ i’ve been there this whole time.
it’s not a theory. not a wish. just a fact you misplaced somewhere along the way.
iv , the mind collapses on itself. how do you know you aren’t already in your dr? how do you prove this isn’t the dream? the body stops feeling like yours. the world gets flimsy at the edges. and then? the illusion shatters.
v , you remember. not enter. not “get there.” just....remember. your dr? you were in it before you even asked. shifting? you never had to try. it was always just a breath away. you were never locked out. you just forgot the door was already open.
vi , you're there. like the ending of a lucid dream where you suddenly know without needing proof. and that’s it. you're there. you always were.
⊹ ︶︶ ୨୧ ︶︶ ⊹
the anti-method works for getting into the void as well, as it bypasses the idea of getting there entirely. instead of treating the void as a destination you have to reach, it flips the perspective :
you’re already in the void. you just forgot.
the void isn’t something you enter. it’s something you remember. it’s the default state, the space beneath everything else. but your mind, in its little desperate need to cling to reality, convinced you that you’re somewhere else. that you’re here instead of there. this method forces your brain into a logical spiral . . .
◞ how do i know i’m not already in the void? ◞ how do i prove this isn’t the dream? ◞ what if i just… forgot?
and because your brain can’t disprove it, the illusion starts to crack. your body stops feeling real. the world starts to feel dreamlike. the physical self detaches, and, poof, there you are. or rather, there you always were.
it works because it messes with the fabric of perception. if you stop believing in the difference between “here” and “there,” what’s left???? just being. just existing. and in that moment of realisation, the illusion of reality collapses. and you remember the void like an old childhood memory suddenly rushing back.
once you're in the void, once the realisation fully sinks in and the illusion crumbles, you're just there. infinite. detached. pure awareness. it’s like waking up from a dream, but instead of waking into your bedroom, you wake into nothingness. and then? well, you decide.
◞ if you want to affirm, affirm. ◞ if you want to shift, set your intention and let yourself go. ◞ if you want to just exist in the void, soak in the weightless, limitless nothingness.
there’s no next step because the void doesn’t require doing. it’s the ultimate being. you can shape it, or you can let it hold you. either way, you’re already exactly where you need to be.
what happens after? whatever you want. that’s the whole point.
౨ৎ and that is it. no trying, no reaching, just a little oh. moment. a déjà vu in the back of your mind. go play in the dreamscape. you were never here anyway.
you definitely don't require this method, or any method at all to either shift *or* get to the void, but method can be fun ! you can definitely try this one out if you wish.
i think my favorite thing about 2025 so far is how many people on shiftblr just said "you know what, fuck this shit. this used to be fun, let's make it fun again!" the closest thing i've seen to 'discourse' has been the genetics lady, but we're all just laughing at her so i don't think it counts tbh. but like every shifting/loa post i see is 'here's some wild shit i manifested/scripted' or 'WTF I ACTUALLY FINALLY SHIFTED???' and it brings me so much joy.
just realized the first thing i script into my dr’s are my s/o’s …
