i remember reading a method - i don’t remember if it was here or reddit - “you should set a date for when you’ll shift, and then try not to worry about it - just intend you’ll wake up in your DR, focus on believing it, etc, and since you believe it’ll happen, it will.” so i tried that on the 3rd.
considering the tone of the post, you can guess i didn’t shift, lol. id be way more excited. but i had a dream about shifting. and it gets weird and woo so im gonna stick a readmore on it
it was lucid, sort of, and really vivid - in the dream i was somewhere close to my DR, but not quite. like, my DR is in japan, and i was sure in japan, but i was the city i used to live in irl, not where i was trying to go. other elements of things i was carrying were closer to my irl self too. and i was passing reality checks - which isn’t uncommon for me, even in lucid dreams, but overall the dream seemed more vivid than usual. i could feel pain, for one, which is... sure a thing. at some point, the other people hanging around in the dream seem to notice me and seemed kind of hostile, so i got freaked out and ran off.
one woman, seeming to appear from no where, managed to catch me, and pulled me into another “setting”, like a little pocket universe. there wasn’t much there, but she had me pinned to some sort of couch. she started to talk to me about shifting. she seemed pretty... frustrated with me? i wish i could remember what she was saying, but it left my mind almost as soon as she said it. i know she mentioned a very specific part of my script - essentially “the universe knows my limits, even if things get scary or painful or what-have-you, it never goes past what i can handle mentally.” i’m not sure if she was saying that was a good or a bad move lol. i think she was asking me if i was serious about shifting in general, and i told her i was sure.
that was another thing i read somewhere - fear is sometimes your mind asking if you’re sure. it’s an important signal, sure. but it doesn’t always mean you’re doing something wrong, or dangerous.
she seemed to accept that, though still a little skeptical, and she let me go. then, i “woke up” into another dream, where essentially i was physically browsing the internet (a common theme in my dreams) looking at information of this entity. she called herself Jane GZC - the last initials being words i forgot, but the “research” i did said that while the initials stayed the same, the name changed from person to person. she apparently showed up to many people who were researching conspiracies, or certain spiritual topics, and often in dreams. a lot of the sources seemed freaked out by her, or thought she was evil, but i didn’t think so. i thought i wanted to talk to her again. near the end of the dream there was a clip of her, which started inhuman but quickly faded to a woman with dark tan skin and red curly hair. she didn’t look like that when i met her, but again, most people in my dreams don’t really have too many distinguishing features unless im specifically looking for them.
uhhhh. so idk what to make of that, in general. it could have just been a weird dream. but it felt kind of meaningful, and while i can’t find any information on her irl, it did kind of feel like she wasn’t just one of my dream characters? maybe i got prodded by some sort of weird spiritual entity?? it would not be the first time tbh, though ive never had one poke me in dreams. she hasn’t shown up since then, and frankly gave me no useful advice (though maybe if i hadnt forgotten everything she said by the time i “woke up” into that second dream) but idk. i don’t have any good conclusion here. it just seemed relevant, somehow.
