if you've never shifted before,
I hate (love, actually) to break it to you, but you actually have! Just hear me out.
We are constantly being told that shifting is "the act of moving your awareness from a reality to another", which is true.
However there has always been some confusion/ misinformation (in most popular shifting spaces) about what qualifies as a different reality, and consequently, about what qualifies as a reality shift.
What I've noticed throughout the years that I've been observing and engaging with shifting spaces online, is that most shifters only consider something "a shift" when you become aware of a different reality in a way that breaks the illusion of continuity (let's call this category 1).
Here are some examples of breached continuity:
- if you fall asleep in your cr and wake up in you desired reality -> that's a shift.
- if you fall asleep with a red tshirt on, and wake up with a yellow t-shirt on -> you shifted to a "parallel" reality.
But whenever the change doesn't impact continuity (considered as normal) they don't think of it as a shift (let's call this case category 2).
-Falling asleep with the tv on, and waking up with the tv off --> not considered a shift because it is "common sense" that the tv goes on stand by after a while.
- Or, falling asleep in the car as a kid and waking up in your bed--> not considered a shift because "obviously " your parents carried u to ur bed, right?
Both categories fall under the umbrella term "shifting", because in both cases your subconscious beliefs "triggered" a change of awareness (a shift).
And for the very same reason, any slight changes, or occurrences that you experience in life can be referred to as shifts.
Long story short the mechanism behind shifted to your desired reality is the same mechanism behind you waking up to your phone having its battery on 100% after charging it overnight (for example).
So yes, you have definitely shifted before.
