𐔌 . ⋮ The Red String Theory in my better cr .ᐟ ֹ ₊ ꒱
First and foremost, in my better cr: soul mates(s/m) DO exist, whether we get to meet them or not! Everyone has a red string that connects to another person that matches their orientation.
They only appear when you come in physical contact with your s/m. They will appear as a little red strings(duh) on the left ring finger and when you come into physical contact with your s/m it appears and ties you and their fingers together, a flash of energy pulse through you. You can't miss it.
But if you and your s/m get together, and one of you were to willingly cheat, the string would snap sending another pulse of energy through you. Cheaters don't get let off the hook!
Its not very common to actually find your s/m which is why it would only snap if your together because some people go on to not date their soulmates.
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 t-shirt 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).
For example:
-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?
Right...?
WRONG!!!
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 shifting 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).
normalise referring to ur "cr/or" as ur "pr" (previous reality) and referring to your dr as ur cr instead, bc if were following law of assumption....youre already there. So technically, ur dr is ur cr lol. hope this made sense
one of my favorite side quests to do while scripting is going on pinterest and finding pictures of my friends/family/partner that look like i could have taken them, and putting together a little camera roll of my loved ones :p
Some things that I don’t really get about other shifters, is when they have an issue with:
a) using other people online as face claims
b) being against race, gender & age changing
We have infinite amount of lives, and unlimited amount of people that we already are, we’re just shifting our awareness to the reality where we are that race or we are that age, etc. Because shifting is not making up a story, it’s choosing the reality you’re shifting to ‼️ Shifting is inevitable, and you can’t help who you are in this reality, so why could you help who you are in another reality? I think a lot of it is shifters that don’t really understand it or see it how it really is, and also anti-shifting propaganda.
Because “race changing” in shifting is different to like race changing in general, you know? You’re a different race in another reality, and you’re just shifting and becoming aware of that self that’s a different race. But it’s not the same as trying to change your race in this reality or just any reality where you already have a set race.
And using a person’s face in this reality as your face claim in another reality is the same as like using a song made another artist in this reality, and using it as a song made by you in your reality in say a fame dr! It’s still the same, and that’s just your face in another reality. It’s not “weird”, it’s the same thing as ‘that’s their face in this reality, but your face in that reality’. You know?
But shifters need to stop limiting themselves and others by creating these rules. Shifting is not a thing that needs rules, it’s freedom. Freedom to live as many lives as you want for however long you want, freedom to travel the multiverse. It’s unnecessary to police other shifters so strictly for things that aren’t supposed to be an issue in our community! Go change your race, go change your age, go change your gender. Do not limit yourself to the rules, limits, and morals of this world, because it’s just one reality out of infinity.

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ 𓂃 you’re trying to feel your dr with your cr senses
⠀a lengthy shifting guide
why is it so hard to shift from your cr to your dr but not so much vice versa? you’ve spent the first large chunk of your life believing this reality to be the full extent and foundation of existence. even if you now logically understand this not to be the case, the years spent curating and deepening a mental, emotional, and physical anchor to this reality has warped your perception of reality and instilled in to you the subconscious idea that your cr is the default. and in treating it as the default, the end all be all, and in compromising with it, you reinforce the idea that you are attached or stuck here—that it is even a place to get stuck in in the first place. not only do you trap yourself in this reality and grant it power over you that it does not actually have, you start viewing your cr as the “starting point” too, and shifting as some form of transportation from point A to point B. accompanying this belief is an imagined distance created between your current reality and desired reality. you might’ve already recognised this in yourself; the feeling that your dr is somehow faraway, a place that needs to be travelled to.
it’s important to make and internalise the distinction between a shift in realities as an act of metaphysical travel, and a shift in realities as a shift in focus. imo the former is a much better descriptor for what shifting actually is in essence. i will go into more depth later, but a byproduct of being raised the way you were, growing up knowing nothing but your cr and rooting & centring yourself wholly (confined) within it, is the over identification you end up developing with your cr self. you are not living reality, you are watching it. but after years of the constant unbroken immersion, the two become almost impossible to distinguish. you define yourself by and take on as if they were your own the thoughts and identity and feelings of the “vessel” you are observing, and let them dictate how you experience reality. the lines begin to blur between you; your cr self, and you; your awareness/the observer.
feel your hand. don’t touch it, but notice it’s weight and temperature, or the air around it. now feel the feeler. can you feel yourself? or your body, maybe? now go a step further and feel the one feeling. you probably aren’t fully able to, but this is the observer. “the observer”, or the state of being after breaking the immersion, is you in your natural or purest state. it has also been described as pure awareness, the void state, ego death, sakshi, the self, anatta, and interpreted in different ways across a multitude of different religions and branches of spirituality & philosophy, all used as a means to an end for different things. fyi—i’m not saying you have to completely forsake your cr identity or start ignoring/dismissing your senses or thoughts to shift, just understand that those things don’t define you or your reality. the means to the end here is just getting a point across and hopefully helping improve with the approach you take to shifting. all of this to say, you’re not travelling from point A to point B. point A and B are not places you can (technically) even travel to or exist in, because you’re just watching/observing/being aware of. shifting is not the transportation of a self from one location to another. shifting is simply changing what is focused on/experienced; from one stream of experience to another. a shift in focus.
to summarise, you as in your ego, the you in this cr as you know it, your body, your brain, your thoughts, your identity, don’t actually go or shift anywhere. you, your awareness, in favour of perceiving you, your cr self, the one sat at your computer or phone or whatever reading this right now, starts perceiving a different you/ego/self—one that could have the exact same personality, memories, and thoughts, just in another realty, or one that is a different person entirely. there is only a change or “shift” for the observer, not the cr self or ego. so stop trying to feel your dr with your cr senses. you’re not going to. you’re so immersed in your cr and cr self that you automatically rely on this reality’s bodies’ senses to gauge your success when you try to shift, waiting for your cr self to get a cue that it’s never going to get. the surroundings your cr self feels aren’t going to go anywhere. nor are your senses going to shut off. your cr body will continue to receive sensory information, because that’s what bodies do. so don’t lie there expecting your bedsheets to disappear or magically warp into your dr surroundings or something and feel like you’ve failed when they don’t. shifting is not about somehow willing your surroundings to change or lying in your room forcefully convincing yourself that your senses are feeling something else, it’s about acknowledging what’s beyond those senses. feeling and connecting to what your dr self feels.
if you can still feel your cr, it’s not you feeling it, it’s your cr self. and you are not your cr self.
you can apply this to your thoughts too. your thoughts are no less your cr self’s than your senses are. if you start getting doubts mid attempt or can’t let go of the thought or feeling that you’re not in your dr, remind yourself that you are not your feelings or thoughts or doubts. you are simply observing them. of course your cr self will think that they’re still in their cr, they are. just ignore them and shift your attention elsewhere. your focus and awareness are what dictate what you experience, if you relinquish your focus from your cr and direct it to your dr instead, that’s where you’ll “be”.
obviously there’s no one set way to shift, so if you want you can stop reading here and apply this information to your shifting journey in whatever way suits you. if you’re interested in my method though, here’s the compilation of all this info into practical steps you can actually take to shift.
get comfortable somewhere you won’t be disturbed. close your eyes and focus on what you can see. the light behind your eyelids, shapes, colours, whatever. but instead of automatically interpreting these sensations as belonging to your cr, allow them to become sensory input from your dr. light? that’s coming from the lamp by the xyz in your dr bedroom. or maybe your in a field if that’s a fitting setting for your dr, and it’s the sun shining down on you. shapes? that’s because you’ve been lying down with your eyes closed for a while now, you’re tired after your classes or job or whatever you do in your dr. even if it’s nothing at all, let it be your drs nothing. just feel it. do this for about a minute.
then move onto your body. whether it’s sinking, lightness, tingling, focus on it. and do the exact same as you did for the previous step, interpret it as input coming from your dr. don’t worry if you can still feel your body lying in your bed, because your surroundings aren’t going to change—at least not physically. again, those sensations belong to your cr self, and they don’t prevent awareness from directing itself elsewhere. the goal here is to shift your focus away from them and onto something else, so hyperfocusing on your cr and worrying about your surroundings is counterintuitive. just gently guide your attention back to your dr, really try feel your dr surroundings and what your dr body is currently feeling. if you can’t fully avert your focus away from your cr, that’s fine, at the very least just try receive/tap into the input coming from your dr alongside your cr.
finally focus on what you can hear. if you’ve already managed to make a connection with your dr through your sight and physical senses just build up on what you’ve already got. feel grass tickling your skin? deepen the connection there by focusing on the sound now too, the wind blowing through it. see light behind your eyes? focus on the hum of the lights.
repeat these exercises over and over, deepening the connection with each cycle. if you don’t manage to get anything the first cycle just keep going until you do. it might take some practice. like i mentioned before, after spending so much time here and being in constant attunement with your cr self, the sense that your cr is the default starts to take root and it can be difficult to shake the feeling that you’re just indefinitely “here”. it’s normal for it to take some time to learn how to question this feeling and push past it. since you've never (technically?) been aware of anything outside of this reality, learning how to do so can be a bit like learning how to use a muscle you've never used before.
this method operates on the idea that reality is something that is tuned into through focus & narrowed awareness and not something metaphysically travelled across, so for the most success with it, i’d recommend starting to make a conscious effort to see your dr less like a place and more like a wavelength or channel, a perspective already existing beyond your current focus. shifting to your dr then becomes an effort to notice and receive input from this channel/wavelength, input that already exists out there and that simply needs to be acknowledged. you’re just picking up on what’s already there, feeling something that a version of you already feels.
persist in the belief that reality is observed and flexible. you’re not "stuck" anywhere unless you believe you are.
I think we need to have a real nuanced talk about censorship of drs on tumblr of all places gang gang- tumblr of all places is a place for dark and weird shit so if people wanna talk about their weird and dark drs, just block them bro like you're literally making yourself mad and making drama in the community and accomplishing nothing because guess what? shaming people for their drs isn't going to stop them from shifting to it and if your point is to shame them into stop talking about it, that's opening up a whole can of worms that allows everyone to be targeted.
i honestly believe that the policing of people’s dr no matter what they are is why the shiftblr community is overrun and oversaturated with the same advice posts because that’s easily digestible and you dont have to actually think about it and can just reread the same thing over and over unlike people sharing about their drs because they aren’t pandering to you for likes and reblogs, they’re sharing a vulnerable part of themselves to connect with others
the blunt but likely most important shifting advice i can give you✎
i feel like alot of the time on shiftblr the same advice just gets said again and again, and the advice is good! its good enough to get anyone to shift or manifest whenever you want.
but then why isnt everyone shifting already?
reason one*ೃ༄
im gonna be very honest, and possibly very mean right now, but i promise, its only tough love. i want the best for you! and you most likely need to hear this.
most people arent applying the advice they get!
"dont check the 3d"
"ok!"
minutes later,
"why havent i shifted or manifested this thing yet?"
"dont affirm against what you want."
"got it!"
minutes later,
"ugh i cant shift! this is so hard!"
"meditation is very very helpful for manifesting and shifting and will make you manifest or shift so much quicker!"
"wow! really? ill meditate right now!"
doesnt meditate a single time for weeks...
this happens so often i cant stand it. theres so much amazing advice on this app but whats the point in reading it if you are just going to ignore and do the opposite of what it says moments later.
checking the 3d in general doesnt make sense to me, the 3d is a pathological liar, nothing it shows you reflects what the 4d has already given you. the 3d no matter what will try and rage bait you into not affirming and persisting and letting it do that will only make manifestation and shifting ten times harder for yourself and its so simple to stop doing it.
all you have to do to stop checking is:
when you catch yourself checking the 3d, affirm and persist these things: the 3d has no effect over me, i already have my desire, the 3d conforms to the 4d instantly.
i understand that it can sometimes be hard not to check the 3d, its all we can perceive, however its very clear alot of you guys arent even making an effort to try and stop yourself whenever you see that you are checking the 3d.
and for those of you who HATE meditation, just start out by meditating with ambient noise. (i.e lofi, chill music, colour noise, rain, fan noises, city ambience etc etc) listen to the ambient noise of your choosing for a while, 20-25 mins. then when you take away the ambient noise after 8-10 days of daily meditating with the ambient noise do it for a much shorter time, closer to 10-15 minutes. then slowly bring the time up to 20-30 over a span of time that feels comfortable to you.
reason two⋇⊶⊰❣⊱⊷⋇
alot of you guys arent affirming and persisting either!
so many of you guys when faced with pushback from the 3d just give up on your assumption, and i dont get it.
if you affirm and persist you get what you want. sometimes it might come to you slower then you would want but it will come to you NO MATTER WHAT. affirming and persisting is the best way of getting anything you want, and i will forever stand by that.
even when the 3d doesnt show you your dr, even when the 3d doesnt show you what you have already manifested, you stand firm in the assumption you have and persist.
reason three✧༺♥༻∞
you guys are letting your self concept, self doubting thoughts, and worries hold you back from shifting so much!
i see so many people being so worried that theyre doing something wrong that they stop even trying, and just try to find answers to the questions that they dont even need an answer to.
"but what if i have (insert thing happening around me that might be distracting/difficult for me to focus with) can i still shift???"
you can still shift.
"but what if im neurodivergent??"
you can still shift.
"but--"
you can shift no matter what anything is like in your life. period.
the self doubts you have are most likely inane. they most likely are things that you DONT have to worry about.
if you are doubting your ability to shift, you are wrong. you can shift.
if you are doubting your ability to manifest, you are wrong. you can manifest.
reason four❀。• *₊°。 ❀°。
so many of you are searching for the next new technique, the new next method, the new next thing or piece of advice that will make you shift and manifest.
you dont need to.
im gonna be honest right now and this is no shade to the lovely people posting advice on shiftblr but alot of advice is not needed and just the same advice reworded.
i try to have original advice to post on here because i feel like that is how i can help the most people.
BUT, even then, most of my posts arent needed for you to shift. they can be helpful, but if you want to shift reading advice isnt going to be the thing that makes it all click for you. doing work with yourself to find advice that would help yourself is whats gonna make it all click to you.
One of the most popular, infamous, and often misunderstood concepts within the community is the idea of “𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐨.”
I constantly come across posts, and I’ve recommended it myself, that tell you to let go of that lingering, irritating expectation of whether tomorrow you’ll wake up in your desired reality or once again open your eyes to your cursed, damned, painfully familiar bedroom.
But what does “𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐨” actually mean?
Well, awaken those neurons that social media has graciously fried and read my magnificent, slightly irreverent post.
Allow me to enlighten you with my (our) brilliant intellect and my (not particularly revolutionary) ideas.
“𝐋𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐨” is not about pretending that shifting no longer interests you. We’re human beings. It’s completely normal, and honestly understandable, to feel excited about something that would so obviously mark a before and after in our endless existence.
“𝐋𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐠𝐨” is really about accepting that you already have it.
…A little confusing, isn’t it?
But it’s much simpler than it sounds.
You are consciousness. I am consciousness. We are all consciousness, pure awareness that is not tied to any fixed place, pure awareness that is genuinely free, pure awareness that is both the beginning and the end of existence and everything that comes with it. In other words, the consciousness that creates everything we perceive as real around us.
Following that logic, isn’t it somewhat irrational to believe that you’re still not in your desired reality?
You are.
You always have been.
You always will be.
That’s simply the nature of things.
The only thing missing, the 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨𝐩, is your willingness to see it, to accept it, and to stop longing for something you already possess so that you can finally experience it firsthand.
That’s why I proudly declare myself a fan of the Law of Assumption.
When you repeat affirmations, you’re not trying to fool yourself, nor are you desperately chasing after something you want. You’re aligning your awareness with an already existing possibility.
Let go.
You are not chained to this reality.
As difficult as it may be to believe, you already have what you’ve been yearning for.
Accept it.
And allow yourself to experience the reality you’ve dreamed of for so long.
