Reality Shifting?

(Im unsure where I would put this thread. I stuck it in Misc because it isn't talking of magic or witchcraftitself but talks of the phenomena of realities and the universe.)

Im curious to see if anyone knows of reality shifting. Although I've never accomplished it myself, I've seen it in various places and it was pretty popular a few years ago on Tiktok. There's a lot of booming communities about it on Amino, and I'm wondering what people here think about it. What do you guys think about it? I'll be open to anything at all!

This is pretty short, but feel free to ask questions about it and I'll see what I can find on it and teach you/give you any sort of context needed to understand this better.

Thanks!

After looking briefly at the Wikipedia article on the subject, it sounds to me like it's just a new label for an old concept. Mostly it reminds me of astral projection, especially the part about your body being asleep while your mind is awake. Not sure what else to make of it.

One other form of reality shifting I have heard about comes across as being essentially another term for magic and/or spiritual growth. Actively engaging will and mindful choice in order to affect a desired outcome or change.

An example would go like this;

Say you are saving money for a ew car, but you keep getting sidetracked by difficulties like unforseen expenses, getting ill and losing hours at work, having apiances fail at home and need replacing... that sort of thing. Your current reality is that you are being continuously unable to reach your goal.

The concept is that there are many concurrent realities that appear, and disappear, in a basically infinite way based on every probable outcomee of every moment choice or event we experience. The line we 'live' through is determined by what we inattentive choose to perceive... think influence of expectations. We feel like we will never get that car, so we perceive the line of reality where we never get it. Reality follows thoughts.

The method to make change and 'shift reality' is by consciously working to change your thoughts and attitudes, to regularly recognize that you might not be able to get that car -yet-, but remain confident that you will -soon-. Challenges will get handled and new ones will stop arriving/getting in the way, Opportunities to make back lost funds will come about, the car you want will drop in price or have a good deal appear, things will come together to make it happen.

The theory is that choosing to expect and observe positive outcomes will shift your perceptions and awareness towards those branches of your experienced reality.

So while seeming like a fluffy bunny, 'the secret'-reading bit of nonsense it is really just old wine, new bottle; Affecting he probability of events through application of will. It can work for some, or be a detriment to others. It all depends on how you work with it and what you are wanting to gain.

Typo/autocorrect correction;

...we inattentive choose to perceive...
should be
...we unintentionally choose to perceive...

I mean, for my experiences i know it is real. And i have done it before.

I’ve shifted to two Fnaf dr’s, one Kny dr. I’ve had other shifts too but these two are the most known ones so i wanted to tell them.

It is very real i assure. I almost died. You can use all your senses, everything feels exactly as it does here. And when you shift you dont just go ‘oh i shifted.’

You dont even realize you’ve shifted till later because when you shift there, it is normal for you to be there so you dont find anything wrong until you remember you dont originally come from here

Reality shifting is a tricky subject to discuss because it can get confusing for people new to witchcraft. [not saying don't try it if you're new, just saying it's like traveling to the past and showing them a smart phone. You should understand maigck on the physical plane before the multiverse of reality] I'm going to stress by saying magick on the physical plane does not contradict nature. You will not physically teleport from the physical plane to Atlantis or the quantum realm. Reality shifting and all dimensional magick are real things [see the Dr. Strange scene where Ancient One sends his astral flying through the multiverse. That can happen with astral projection]

There are many types of magickal practices, but the thing one has to realize before messing with reality shifting is the limitations of the physical plane. Not being grounded in reality can lead to spiritual psychosis. This is the biggest danger with reality shifting and these more elevated forms of magick [not saying it's more powerful, it involves more tapping into spiritual energy and less using the natural energy of your natural, physical plane, which can get intense] Focusing on a lot of spiritual expansion too fast and utilizing techniques you're not ready for, can overwhelm your brain and cause psychosis [this is why new witches are warned not to focus on just opening their third eye. When energy pools in it, it can cause hallucinations. Energy in our body can effect our physical]

Personally, I don't believe in reality shifting. Not that it doesn't work, I believe it's another name for manifestation/law of attraction [create a reality where you have it all] which is real, and I use. I also use the fantasy realm to manifest my goals [imagine yourself in X amount of years. This elevates your energy to attract this to you. You will have to work for your goal, but you are living that energy because you charged yourself with that energy] These can be considered forms of reality shifting [just without the "visualize yourself entering another reality" meditation which sounds a lot like astral projection to me] With that said, I'm not saying you shouldn't believe in it. If it works for you, a rose by any other name, you know? I'm just saying know the difference between making an energetic shift to change reality, and physically transporting your physical to another reality. [also, with this shifting the energy on another plane to alter reality, you need to put in the effort on the physical. You imagine a reality where you get up and do yoga? Get up and do yoga. That's how the habit is formed. The spells help you achieve your goal faster]

Another thing reality shifting reminds me of is the Akashic Records. Those are real. They're books which contain all of your divine information. They exist in a realm that isn't bound by time. You could use the records to pinpoint a trauma and instantly heal it, thus instantly elevated your present self. Again, as someone who has spent the past several months doing deep spiritual work, including everything mentioned above, [funny enough, I began my work around the time this was originally posted lol] you need to be grounded [energetically, but also in your body. Know yourself and check in often] have a support system [friends, family, therapist if you have mental health issues or buried trauma] and know when to rest. You might get a bunch of amazing experiences one right after the other, but if you rush toward the finish line, it can lead to [again] psychosis.
