it's just your mind moving into different experiential realities based on what you're aligned with at any given second.
you are already doing it. constantly. every time you make a decision, change your opinion, react to something differently, you are mentally stepping into a different version of your life.
you pick tea instead of coffee, you're now in the branch where you drank tea.
you believe you're bad at maths, you're now living the sequence where that belief colours your whole experience of maths.
you decide "i'm lucky" and actually internalise it, you start living out a reality structured by that assumption.
shifting is not special. it's literally just continuous relocation of consciousness through choice and belief, tiny or huge.
most people shift so microscopically they don't notice. they call it "change," "growth," "bad luck," "mood swings," but really it's just consciousness slipping sideways into another experiential stream where the variables are a little different.
big shifting, like waking up in another reality, is just doing that same thing but deliberately, with intent, with commitment.
instead of unconsciously slipping into a slightly different branch because you chose a different lunch, you are consciously saying:
"ok. now i experience myself in this completely different set of conditions."
and your brain, because it is literally a data-processing organ, not a fixed meat box, accepts it when you make it real enough to override old data. are you still with me !?!?!?
you shift every second based on decisions, reactions, beliefs.
most shifts are small, unnoticed, cumulative. "big" shifts are just conscious, deliberate relocations into drastically different experiential data. it's not magic. it's normal. it's mechanical. it's the default setting of existence.
every moment you're experiencing a version of your life.
it's not THEE life. it's A life, the one you're tuned into right now based on what you expect, believe, and focus on.
when you shift, you're just moving into a different version of your life experience.
not a new world. not a portal. not a dream.
just a different set of experiences your mind is capable of locking onto, like changing playlists.
you do it already, every time you change your mind, act differently, even notice something new.
you're not jumping through dimensions like a marvel movie, you're just moving your awareness into a slightly or hugely different path that was always accessible.
small shifts = when you start liking sushi after hating it.
big shifts = when you wake up and the whole setup feels different because you deliberately chose a new pattern to lock into.
your experiences are flexible. your mind moves through them automatically. deliberate shifting is just taking the wheel.
getting into the big shifts, or living in a completely different setup, starts with the same process as the small ones: some sort of belief and assumption.
if you're shifting into a different experience, whether that's hogwarts, a marvel universe, or a whole new version of your life, it's because you choose to believe that it's possible. just like you decide you're lucky or bad at maths, you decide you're already living in that new life.
it's not about waiting for something to "happen" or needing a cosmic shift. it's simply deciding that this new life is what you are now aligning with.
the key to big shifts is assumption.
you've been shifting already, but the experience you're living in right now is the one your mind is locked into. to get to something drastically different, you just need to fully assume that it's yours. it's like deciding what you're going to eat for lunch. one day it's pasta, the next it's sushi.
it doesn't need to be a complicated, mystical process. you just shift your awareness by choosing the assumption that the new setup is already happening for you.
why it's possible to wake up in a different world or timeline: your brain doesn't care if you're imagining or physically experiencing something, it will treat both as equally real.
once you decide that this new life is your life, your brain accepts it. you're not "leaving" one world and going to another, you're simply locking into a different path that was always available.
everything already exists. it's just a matter of tuning your mind to it.
once you assume it's possible, it's like pressing play on a movie. you commit to the experience, and your brain accepts it because it's designed to process whatever you focus on as reality.
the difference between a small shift and a big one is the depth of your focus and how much you align with that new assumption. the more you assume you're in this new reality, the more real it feels.
stop looking at the shift as something you need to "arrive" at or wait for. it's happening now.
you don't need to fight your current experience; you just need to choose to experience the new one. you get there by focusing on the new belief, like a switch, but it's not a sudden jolt. it's a steady, quiet shift of awareness that says: this is my life now.
and the result: your mind doesn't draw boundaries between worlds. once you decide to step into a different version of your life, all that's required is the commitment to live inside it.
the reason it works with fantasy worlds, with totally different setups, is that your mind knows no limits. if you can think it and fully believe it's yours, it is yours. shifting is just you consciously moving into another path you've decided to live out.
(i will copy and paste something i said previously, but it is 100% applicable here)
our brain files things under "real" and "not real" as if it's got an actual authority on the matter. but. it doesn't have any proof.
your brain doesn't have eyes. now i know you'll say that you do.
but what do your eyes actually do? they see things. cool. but . your eyes don't see truth. they see whatever your brain tells them is real.
example: ever woken up from a dream and for a few seconds, you still thought it was real? fully convinced? because your brain believed it, so your eyes went along with it. your heart raced, your hands shook, maybe you even felt pain. all from something that wasn't real.
or ever had deja vu? where you swear something has happened before, but you know it hasn’t? again. your brain is filling in gaps. deciding what's real for you.
so when you say, i know i'm in my cr because i can see it, what you’re really saying is, i know i'm in my cr because my brain is telling me i am.
but your brain is just following a script. one it's been running since birth. what happens when you stop following it? when you stop taking its word for it?
when you ask what if i already shifted? your brain freezes. because it doesn't actually know. it just assumes. and when it starts to doubt itself, that's when you slip through.
how do you break out of it: stop trying to make reality change. assume it already has. sit in the knowing that you are already where you want to be. no proving, no waiting, no searching. just accepting. reality bends to what you accept as fact.
the only thing keeping you in your cr is that you keep assuming it's real.
it's not because some people are chosen or have magic brains. it's not because they "tried harder" or found a secret method. it's because some people assume they've already done it, and some keep looking around for proof.
when you're still checking, doubting, testing, your mind is holding onto the idea that you're not there yet.
even if you're doing all the techniques right, if the feeling underneath. it is "i'm trying to shift" instead of "i already have," you're holding the experience of waiting, not having.
people who wake up in their drs didn't stay stuck in the "trying" mindset.
it's not about how badly you want it. it's about whether you accept it without needing anything outside of you to confirm it.
your brain doesn't need to see it first. it needs to believe it first. seeing follows.
to the people who haven't shifted: you're not that wrong, broken, or bad at it. it's just that you're mind is still split, half believing, half checking. half stepping into it, half pulling back. and that's human. that's normal. but the second you stop needing to "see it to believe it" and start trusting the inner knowing, you'll slip through.
technically, no.
but practically???? sometimes, yes.
here's why: shifting isn't about how hard you push. it's about what you accept as true. if you could snap into a full-body, no-doubt belief that you already shifted, right now, you wouldn't need persistence at all. you'd be done. locked in. experiencing it.
but, because most people have years of habits, doubts, conditioning, it's not always instant. the mind wants to fall back into what feels familiar.
not because it's evil. not because it's trying to sabotage you. just because that's how the brain saves energy: it runs the old script unless you feed it a new one enough times to override it.
not your doubts. not your overthinking. not your past. not your fears. not your age. not how long you've "failed." not your mental health. not the fact that you woke up in your same bed today. not how "stuck" you feel. not your logic. not your friends, your parents, your teachers, your surroundings. not your subconscious. not the clock. not the calendar. not "missing the void." not "doing it wrong."
nothing.
because shifting isn't something you earn. it's not a reward you unlock after completing a list of tasks or becoming a better, calmer, smarter version of yourself. it's not a door guarded.
shifting is just moving your awareness to a different experience. you are the only authority. your assumption is the key, the lock, the door, the floorboards.
even your resistance can't stop it, because the second you decide, even if a part of you is screaming “this is stupid,” your mind begins tilting toward the new path.
moment by moment.
shift by shift.
breath by breath.
the only thing that delays it is believing that something can delay it.
but if you drop that???? if you stop believing anything outside of you has the power???? you move. immediately. automatically. effortlessly.
you cannot be denied access to something that was never closed. you cannot be blocked from a process that is natural to you. you cannot fail at something that is built into the way you already exist.
you shift because you decide to. that's it. that's all.
if you feel like quitting shifting, read upon this: post about quitting<3
shifting isn't some cosmic lottery. it's not about waiting for a sign or chasing a feeling. it's not about methods or hours or perfect conditions.
it's just a choice. and then you live like it's true, even if everything around you still smells like your old life for a minute.
you don't owe the old version of your life anything. you don't need to explain yourself to your senses. you don't need to argue with your thoughts. you just decide and you stay decided. even when it's boring. even when it's slow. even when your brain wants to reroute you back into doubt.
the shift doesn't happen because you begged for it. the shift happens because you stopped needing permission to believe you already had it.
no chasing. no proving. no waiting. just deciding.

It's a place where the living reside, but they're dead! They're doomed to die, either quickly through direct targeting or slowly due to the absence of vitality in their city ⚚
Wherever you turn, you find nothing but death, displacement, homelessness, destruction, hunger, thirst, ignorance, disease, and rampant infection.
It's my city! It was fully with life until the butchers passed through it! Since the beginning of the massacres, I've been struggling to save myself and my family, but in these circumstances, your support alone has been and remains a lifeline for us. We still need you. The famine has intensified, and we're struggling to get even an empty loaf of bread. The displacement conditions have become more difficult than ever because we've returned to square one after the truce was violated. I hope you will not leave us alone, spread our voices to the world, please reblog and donate if you can. Thank you

YALL new chapter dropped about ferid and safe to say: i loved the twist of it not being what I expected it to be. At first i truly thought that rigr manipulated Ferid into seeing him as a father. But this chapter showed us he was not all too affectionate whatsoever. He didn't even remember Ferid's voice so it may be they didn't talk a lot. So meaning, Ferid grew attached and it shows that something so little was enough for him to make a bond with Rigr. It also shows that new role of "father" truly was because of Rigr being a sire. (This is such definitive proof that depending on the vampire, they can in fact view their sites and sired as family).
Imo Kagami really did went with the : son who admires his neglecting father. A few examples:
That disappointment of Rigr definitely set off ferid's perfectionistic tendencies. Either it is so he lives up to a subconscious thought that he is not good enough, kind of proving to himself but also Rigr he's capable of more.
Perhaps ferid wanting to crush Rigr's plans is to show him he is so much more worthy that he can even sabotage his father's plan.
So not only that but also a one sided relationship between son and father can lead to the son developing some serious issues with forming healthy relationships, desensitised to emotional neglect and continuing this neglect.
And we all see these traits in how he treats Crowley: ferid is literally repeating the cycle of his own father. We also see ferid be so cruel perhaps due to the mixing of emotional unawareness but also the normalisation of killing. So when he slaughtered Crowleys friends and family, it was truly just because of the same reason Rigr did: for the victim to be part of their own interest. Crowley being a kimchi for Ferid's power and Ferid being kimchi for Rigr's knowledge about the Micheala Gene.
ot only that but I also noticed: ferid learnt Rigr's more eccentric features. He observed Rigr and has taken on what he saw as his personal cover up. Because before ferid was turned he wasn't so theatrical (?) similar to what we saw Rigr be.
For me ferid came over as a much more determined, cold-blooded yet very deep and philosophical character. So him using what he learnt from Rigr to cover up what he had planned? EIDKWLC STOP 😭
You can do so many analysis points just alone on that: ferid watching Rigr despite being nothing to him, copied him like a son was guided by a father into a new world. But that also leaves Ferid's morality open: why and where did he learn to basically have no standard for moral choices? Apart from letting let down so often, I can also imagine Ferid partly looked as to how ruthless Rigr used Ferid. I can highly imagine ferid understanding that not only is it important to stick to yourself but also be ruthless as to how you achieve this. Ik this is kind of obvious but it is so interesting to see that connection to where ferid may have learned that or even realised that ruthlessness.
And apart from the torture aspect, it sounds so familiar to crowleys torture, having to hunt down a man for 50 years just to realise you are loosing that wrath of revenge.
Ferid literally repeated the cycle. Crowley once said "he doesn't know (father) rigr." LIKE NO YOU DO FERID CARRIES OUT WHAT RIGR MADE TO HIM. In a sense Crowley was raised into vampire hood the same way ferid was.
But this also draws the Conclusion to Ferid/ Crowley and Rigr and what family constellation they had (considering every type of group dynamic is based on a family dynamic or most): Theirs being what happens when you are raised by a neglected father and how that can go on for generations.
This post is already long enough and a word blob so if you did follow somehow, I am so proud of you. AODJEPE anyways I love ferid so much thank you kagami for explaining Ferid but please don't kill him like you did with Krul 🌚
shifting is my hobby. in my free time i am a mermaid, solve murders, have a debate with aristotle, ride a dragon, climb a mountain, relax while watching the stars with no hair pollution. i can do everything when im bored and come back some hours later. living the life.
CW: Talk of sexualization of characters in fan spaces
In this post I will be talking about how fan perception of characters can then change or affect an egregore/PCE in both positive and negative ways. This entire post is upg (seeing as it’s pop culture paganism based) but I have found that many other pop culture witches have experienced and noticed this as well.
Let’s start with the positives
With fandom culture, characters who aren’t necessarily fully formed or given much screen time get the chance to become popular and gain fan bases of their own. Take the Mauarders for example. Canonically they have next to no information about them but fandom wise they have entire fan bases that are dedicated and have made them into fully fledged characters.
Like with James potter. Canonically all we know is that he’s Harry potters father, he bullies snape when he was younger, and he likes to play pranks. Now take the fandom James, who is loving and protective and has a strong moral compass but is willing to do what he must to keep the ones he loves safe. He has become a character who is now associated with sunshine and happiness but also helping others and mental health. (If you’re a follower of the “PCEs are just gods in forms that humans like and recognize” theory then he’s like Apollo)
This is a net positive because characters that barely existed in canon lore now have their chance to shine and be loved and worshipped.
Another example of fandom positively affecting PCEs is when they take a character who’s demonized and isolated in canon and give them a happy ending and life. A great example of this is Draco Malfoy. Canonically he’s a kid who gets forced to be a death eater and does end up getting redeemed but with fanon it’s a bit more complicated. He’s more of a complex character that feels a lot of conflicting feelings and has trouble experiencing and expressing love. His egregore is now a being of standing up for yourself, escaping abuse, child abuse, financial aid, and healing from trauma.
This doesn’t mean there aren’t negatives though. The biggest negative is the hypersexualization and fetishizing of characters.
I’m not saying you should stop sexualizing these characters or making smut or nsfw things about them because let’s be real that is a big part of fandom and that isn’t a bad thing.
What I am saying is you have to be aware of this aspect of Pop Culture Entity work when you start interacting with these entities. If you only work with canon entities, then you should be fine. But again, a huge part of fandom culture is sexualizing these fictional characters. The people doing this sexualizing probably aren’t witches and have no idea what egregores are, and it isn’t our place to judge or criticize them. The work that they are making, even if they aren’t doing it on purpose, affects these engregores though.
Take Dabi, for example, he’s an entity I work closely with and canonically he has absolutely nothing to do with sex, sexuality, and/or lust. But in the fandom space, it’s very common for people to simp for him and give their energy in a sexual way. This in turn makes Dabi into a sexual being.
It’s a “trend” to worship/work with PCEs because you want to have sex with them or because you simp for them. This is a problem because 1. It gives Pop Culture Entity work a bad rep and 2. It leads to even more sexualization of these people. Again it’s not a problem if it’s the fictional that you’re sexualizing but the second it becomes a genuine entity you recognize exists it turns into you fetishizing a genuine being.
To clarify: it is not a bad thing to have sexual feelings for fictional characters or for beings/entities/deities. It becomes a bad thing when the only reason you work with/interact with a being is for sexual reasons without their prior consent and you only are doing it because you liked them as a fictional character. You have to remember that these beings are real and have thoughts feelings emotions and consent.
I am reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, Mohamad S., who is facing one of the most challenging times of his life. Mohamad is 37 years old and left his homeland in 2015 in search of a safer and better future. He’s a kind, hardworking man, and his small family has always been his greatest priority.
Living abroad, Mohamad has recently endured unimaginable loss and financial strain. Amidst the ongoing conflict in his homeland, his mother passed away, leaving behind his sister and her five young children—the last remaining members of his immediate family.
As the situation worsened, Mohamad managed to help his sister and her children escape to safety in Egypt, covering their immediate needs and securing a temporary refuge for them. Since then, he has been fully responsible for providing everything they need to survive during this transition.
In his efforts to support his family and cope with this devastating loss, Mohamad has found himself deeply in debt. To make matters even more difficult, he recently underwent knee surgery, which limits his ability to return to work for the foreseeable future. This has made it even harder for him to manage his financial responsibilities and the pressing need to provide his family with a stable future.
Mohamad is now working to bring his sister and her five children to join him in Belgium, where he hopes they can find stability and opportunity after all they’ve endured. This transition, however, requires significant resources that he is currently unable to meet alone.
For privacy reasons, we are not sharing Mohamad’s full name, as he has chosen to keep his identity discreet. While he initially refused the idea of asking for help, I couldn’t stand by and watch him struggle alone. I insisted on doing this for him because he deserves a chance to overcome these challenges.
Your contribution will help Mohamad repay the debt incurred during this difficult time, cover ongoing living expenses for his family, and assist with the costs involved in bringing them safely to Belgium.
Mohamad has been a good friend of mine for years, and I’ve always admired his resilience and generosity. Any support, no matter the size, will make an incredible difference in helping Mohamad and his family rebuild their lives after these painful experiences.
Thank you for reading his story and considering helping a man who has always done everything he can for his loved ones.

me when i remember that shifting and manifestation exists 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Shifting is guaranteed. I know you hear a lot of people say this, but it truly is. Nothing can stop you from shifting, not even death. The moment you found shifting and decided you want to do it, you already did. There's no hurry, no rush, you just have to wait for it to be reflected into the 3d. And it's 100% sure that it will, so sit back, get yourself a drink (coffee) and watch it come to you!

Hey everyone, my name is Abdelmajed. I don’t usually talk much about myself, but today, I want to share a little piece of my story.
I was born and raised in Gaza, a place that has always been my home 🏡. I grew up surrounded by my family, my friends, and the streets that I knew like the back of my hand. Life wasn’t always easy, but we had love, laughter, and dreams. I used to think that no matter what happened, home would always be here. But life has a way of changing things in ways we never expect.
Over the past months, everything I once knew has disappeared. The streets that were once filled with children playing are now silent. The houses that held so many memories are now just rubble. And the people I loved—some of them are gone forever. 💔
HOW TO SHUT YOUR MIND UP ... xoxo
Alright, listen up—your mind loves to run its mouth. It’ll throw random thoughts at you like, “Did I leave the oven on?” or “What if this doesn’t work?” when all you want to do is enter the void. Here’s some options (you can choose which one fits you best) on how to make it sit down and shut up so you can actually get somewhere:
First, accept that your mind is chatty. It’s like a toddler that won’t stop asking “why?” The more you fight it, the louder it gets. So, don’t fight it. Instead, just notice it and be like: “Oh, my brain is being loud. That’s fine.” then STOP & IGNORE, don't add anything besides affirmations or visualizing your dr.
Your mind needs something to do. Give it ONE simple thing to focus on, so it doesn’t wander off. I recommend affirming (use only ONE affirmation) for the void or to shift - Repeat your affirmation and let it be the only thought you're paying attention to. the unwanted thoughts will fade naturally.
Instead of trying to "think of nothing", turn your thoughts into white noise. Imagine they blend into the background like TV static or a distant hum. Example: Your thoughts start talking? Just imagine them turning into a soft shhhhhhhh sound, like a TV with no signal. Soon, there’s just peace. for this you don't need to affirm (unless you want to but i reccomend focusing on the "shhhh"), just set an intention on either shifting or entering the void & when unwanted thoughts come up just play some soft shhhhhhhhhhhhhh sounds in your mind.
Imagine a big, glowing mute button floating in front of you. Whenever a thought starts to intrude, picture yourself reaching out and pressing that button. Example: Picture a remote control in your hand with a large “mute” icon. When a thought pops up, press that button in your mind and watch the thought fade away.
the universe is honestly my fav store, it literally has everything. i can shop for a new body, i can shop for a new face, i can shop for talents, i can shop for a boyfriend, i can shop for friends. i just have to do a mental online order and that's it. i don't have to pay, i don't have to do anything. it's mine. like how fun is that??? i feel like i'm in a barbie movie ⋆。༄⋆˚⊹
I've changed my mind on 3d being ur past assumptions.+ Advice
I used to believe and say in my posts that 3d is the product of your past assumptions but I've slightly shifted my perspective on it which is way more helpful cuz you won't feel like this "past" assumptions reality is never-ending. ACTUALLY the 3d isn't the reflection of ur past assumptions, cuz fuck past 💀😭 idgaf about that sheet okay. All we have is the now, the present moment. The 3d, it's the reflection of your CURRENT yes in this moment dominant thoughts/beliefs. Cuz if you used loa however way you do it to manifest what you want, you would have it in the 3d. And like ??? You do have it rn. Manifesation is NOT a process okay, don't get it twisted. You have it all RN, and that's what you need to affirm "yes I have it all RN"
So you keep persisting and pls stop wavering no matter what the 3d shows you and it'll change in no time IF YOU STOP WHINING. your 3d is showing you your current dominant thoughts and as soon as your affirmation become your dominant thought it'll have no choice but to reflect in your reality 💅🏻✨ And how to you make them your dominant thoughts you ask? By repetition. (I love this aesthetic AKAKSHSH ⤵️)

I am going to share with you (some) examples we can find regarding the existence of shifting throughout the ages, simply to show that it has always been a concept that has always existed.
― #01: The Theory of Ideas - Plato: The world we live in is only an imperfect copy of another more perfect and eternal world: the world of Ideas or Forms; everything we see and touch is only an imperfect version of its perfect Idea or Form, which exists on another plane. Our world is changeable and deceptive, while the world of Ideas is immutable and true - In both cases (this and shifting), there is an idea that our everyday perception is not the only way to understand what is ‘real’.
― #02: Dualism - Descartes: Best known for his method of doubt, where he questioned everything he couldn't be absolutely certain of — one of his biggest contributions was mind-body dualism, which argued that the mind (thinking, non-physical) and the body (material, physical) are separate substances. He believed that while the body operated like a machine following physical laws, the mind was something different—immaterial and not bound by space or time.
― #03: Buddhism - Anicca & Anatta: These 2 principles explain that: 1) everything is constantly changing, including the self, time, and the material world. There is no static "reality"—what we perceive is always shifting. And 2) the self is an illusion—a construct created by memories and thoughts.
― #04: Modal Realism - David K Lewis: American philosopher from the last half of the 20th century; his theory explains how all logically possible worlds are as real as our world (the real or actual world). Every decision, every event, every possibility exists somewhere in a parallel reality. These worlds are not just hypothetical or imaginary; they exist in the same way our universe does, just in separate dimensions.
― #05: Time traveler Party - Stephen Hawking: He experimented to test whether time traveling (aka, shifting) to the past was possible. He hosted this 'traveler's party' on June 28, 2009 — but he only sent out the invitations after the event had already happened. The idea was that if time travel were real, someone from the future would see the invitation and travel back in time to attend.
― #06: Syntergic Theory - Jacobo Grinberg: If you've been in the shifting community for some time now, you already know him: a neuroscientist and psychologist known for researching on consciousness, the brain, and mystical experiences. His theory suggested that the brain doesn’t just perceive reality, but actively constructs it by interacting with a universal holographic energy field (which contained all information, and mystical experiences like telepathy could be explained by tuning into different parts of it). Mysteriously, he disappeared in 1994, after his theory gained popularity.
― I have presented shifting through philosophers, religions, scientists, and intellectuals' viewpoints, you still believe that shifting is impossible...?
