I wonder what the Na'vi memes would be like. Like what are the things they laugh and and tell stories abt in their culture and proliferate as what we would call memes?

Do they snicker abt a peer's failed tsahaylu or joke in private abt how badly someone sings? Is there a running gag abt immitating dreamwalkers in a ceremony or events of storytelling and comedy with traditional skits and cultural idioms abt humorous things?

What do the Na'vi laugh about in their daily lives?

Progress Update

June 18th, 2023

I dreamt not of Pandora last night, but I am getting closer to shifting, I can feel it. My dreams have slowly become more realistic, bordering on reality and fiction. For the first time in nearly a decade, I have been able to lucid dream without waking up immediately. While my dreams weren't entirely lucid, I was able to fully control and feel myself for a number of seconds. This is great news. I cannot wait to venture further down this path.

Welcome to Pandora

something i am not a fan of is how all the na'vi faceclaims that are photoshopped or ran through AI are super yassified. Like all of them are very eurocentric beauty standard ykwim? James Cameron said he wanted the Na'vi to be beautiful, and they are, but they're not all supermodels with tiny noses and huge eyes and perfect, full lips. The beauty is in their diversity, their humanity, their wrinkles and scars and moles and freckles. The AI generated Na'vi have nothing like that. No wrinkles, no moles, the same smile and eyeshape. Not even Neytiri and Tsireya, the love interest characters made to be beautiful, look like this. It's this huge disparity between what real beauty and what tiktok beauty is, and it makes me so sad. Like yeah, I get the appeal because they're pretty, and if ur gonna faceclaim an image and use it for roleplay or shifting or whatever, you're gonna wanna be main-character-pretty. It feels like it's inserting online beauty standards into a world that actively criticises and rejects stuff like that. Maybe its just me tho idk

Awesome Pandora inspired room decor!

Shift Attempt, Log 1

June 27th, 2023 The moon is in its Waxing Gibbous phase, illumination 62%. I meditated for a few minutes before making myself comfortable and laying down. I had a Pandora Background Noise audio on in the background. I did my best to clear my mind. I started my attempt at 18:33. I eventually settled for getting comfortable in the Starfish position. Many times I felt my body tingling, and a pinkish / magenta light became the forefront and center of my mind's eye, however just as I could feel myself ascend, I snapped out of the trance. That feeling of ascension is significantly more intense than I thought it would be initially. I did not get used to it with each time I reached it- and in fact, it was almost the same as plunging into icy cold waters. I felt a wave of Shock, and had to restart each time. Remedy: Brace for that feeling and prepare to push forward in the future.

As I fell asleep, my body relaxed, and once more I tried to pass through the Eye of Eywa. I was not welcomed, though- I was rejected in my resting phase just as I was in my waking phase. She knows I am not ready. I rewoke at 22:27, from an average human dream. Though it was more like nightmares, I knew these had nothing to do with my shifting attempt. I am awake, and rested, but my attempt leaves me tired.

I will assume my normal routine. Until next time, friends- I See You. May you shift tonight. -Rey

My Experience With Shifting | + How I Found Spirituality

Howdy all! In case you didn't know: My name is Rey, I'm 19, and I have an extensive history with Shifting + Spirituality. Seeing as this blog documents my journey with shifting, I feel it is only fitting to explain to you my history with it. Disclaimer: This will be a long post. I am not feeling it in me to give brief stories, paraphrasing, and the like. I would like to document extensively my life through the lens of this part of myself. Despite that, I will give a TL;DR at the end of each of my longer posts, including this one, so if you are still interested, but do not want to spend a lot of time reading my posts- see the bottom, below the cut, for details! To everyone else willing to read this Bible of information, thank you. You allow me to be seen and heard, and I appreciate you. Now, let's get started!

Here is a brief Table of Contents so you know what to expect / how I divided this post.

I. My Childhood Escapism II. How I Found Spirituality III. My Shifting Experience Now

MY CHILDHOOD ESCAPISM

I would like to start at the beginning here, and discuss the line between escapism, and shifting. I know, for me personally, there was a point where I had become obsessed with other worlds enough to dream about them constantly, and I used to spend hours daydreaming about a different reality. While some consider this a call towards shifting as a whole, I firmly believe that this was me trying to escape into a world better than my own, out of the childish need to be shielded from my circumstances. The reason I firmly believe this? Well, one is childhood trauma can lead to behaviors rooted in escapism, and eventually, disassociation, but another is I dream in third person. These dreams I was having would always be in third person, no matter what it was about. Incredibly realistic or not, I could always tell from this simple fact. Still, there was a point I crossed when I was still quite young that made me realize that I've been doing this whole shifting thing for a while, and completely unintentionally: you see, while I only dream in third person, on days I was mentally sound enough to reject my escapist behaviors, I would have these "experiences" from the first person perspective that felt like reality to me. The first time it ever happened, I was five years old- tired of my parents fighting, tired of being isolated in the classroom, and had exhausted all other options to distract myself. Instead of playing with my toys or going outside, I decided to sit in the middle of my room, lights off, and think. Think about the trees, the wind, animals, and what it would be like to be one. I wasn't actively imagining anything- just silently asking myself that question, over and over again. Eventually, I "woke up" on a floor of grass, with a body that felt natural, yet completely different from what I was used to. I felt the sensation of hair, yet all over my body. I was walking on my hands, too- not just my feet. I could see very well in the trees- better than I have ever been able to see before. And everything seemed significantly bigger than before. I started walking forward, and that's when I noticed my paws- I was an animal. A primitive cat, more specifically. I had always been afraid of heights, but in this world, I had the strength to climb those wooden giants, and so I did. I felt truly connected to the world outside, and I spent the rest of the day going about my life, hunting small prey, napping, and existing. When I woke up, I was more tired than I'd ever been before. I was also very thirsty. I woke up, asked my mom for some water, and slept through until the following morning. I am aware now that what I had been doing to enter that realm, was meditation- and my focus, what I was repeating to myself, were similar to present 'affirmations'. And, I did not just do this once- I, in fact, did this many times after the first time. I would visit my other self often, surviving through many seasons in the wild, being taken care of by wild humans, and messing around with others like me. Not long after my first shifting experience, however, came the time when I started to doubt the Christian God my parents had taught me to believe in, turning my mindset into something more towards naturalistic and spiritual- this, really, paved the way for my view on shifting now, and the reason I want to look into it further as an adult.

HOW I FOUND SPIRITUALITY Warning: Religious Trauma, Childhood Punishment

Spirituality, for me, is something as equally complex as it is simple. That is to say, it is up to the beholder's interpretation of what they believe in. I interpret my own religion, my own beliefs, and my own practices, just as everybody else does. It is my own to keep just as they have their own to keep- and no one can take this away, just as no other person can go to anyone else and take theirs away. I did not always believe this, however; from birth, I was raised and taught to believe in God, as the other Protestant Christians had who had come before me. As soon as I could read, I was being spoon-fed scripture after scripture, my eyes exposed to cartoons regurgitating the same old lessons over and over, my thoughts assaulted by a roundabout version of human morality. Not that these lessons weren't good for my developing mind- it was just the way it was enforced, who enforced, and why they did so. My punishment as a child was to read the Bible from cover to cover. I would be sat down in the corner, on the shaggy carpet, and the 'grown-up Bible' was placed into my lap, already open to Genesis 1. I had to read, aloud, every word in that Bible, to my parents. If I stopped for any reason, I would have to start over- and they wouldn't let me eat until I was finished, I wouldn't go to sleep until I was done. Oftentimes they would keep me up for hours doing this, and seldom did they let me off the hook early. Those morals, those stories, they didn't make any sense to me. I have the passages memorized to the letter, but I just couldn't make sense of the things in there, nor why God was seemingly punishing me for not understanding- at the time, I had blamed my trauma on the fact that I questioned him at such a young age, but now I know that is irrelevant. I was not punished. God didn't exist. And he did not care about the fact that I did not believe in him starting at age 6. Even though I questioned him, I had not found anything else I had faith in, so I continued trying to make myself believe in him. Then, in 2009, a very popular movie hit theaters; it was called Avatar, a vision brought to life by James Cameron. Now, this may seem silly to others, but I can assure you, I take this very seriously. This is my life, my religion, and my influence. That movie, however, introduced me to a world beyond my comprehension. It showed me the principal of the Great Mother, allowed me to breathe in her breath and hear her heartbeat. I had never felt so connected to life, so seen and heard on such levels. Eywa guided me there, and I've kept that in my heart for so long. I decided, right then and there, that I was a follower of Eywa- the Great Mother, Gaia, whatever you want to call her. I just wished that my world hadn't been so corrupted already... As a teen, I dabbled in Wicca, searching for a practice similar to my own personal belief system- I moved towards Paganism, the Occult, even being a Satanist for a portion of time. Nothing, however, brought me closer in my heart than believing in her- and I realize now that my spirituality is a direct connection to the Great Mother. I also believe I have a gift- a divine sense of life energy, and the ability to see it coursing through everything around me. I believe I can see Eywa- as she is all around me. I know she calls to me, but I cannot go just yet. This is not just a movie to me- this is my life. While the object is obviously fantasy, I know there is a place waiting for me where all living things can live in harmony with one another, and all beings can be happy, away from capitalism, away from suffering... That is another reason I want to learn more about shifting. Shifting myself into a place where I belong is my highest goal, and allowing others to experience my religion- my connection- is my second goal.

But this spirituality can only take me so far in this current reality. And though I believe heavily in manifestation, tarot readings, the divine sense and elder deities, I still leave my heart with Eywa in a reality other than this one. Does that mean I am shifting to escape this world? No. I am rooted in this world, I've experienced loss in this world, I've become human in this world- but, I long for my true experience, which I know is not here. Where is it, then? Well, that's why shifting is so important to me now, more than ever.



MY SHIFTING EXPERIENCE NOW

As per my childhood, I should be an experienced shifter at this point, right? Wrong. Since adolescence, there was something missing... something I cannot put my finger on other than the very real possibility that I have lost my touch, my senses have been blocked, and I need to re-learn how to shift. That, my friends, is why I'm here today. Moreover, my experience and knowledge of shifting is limited, and so I might as well be considered a beginner who knows nothing- because that is exactly what I am. That does not mean I haven't tried, however; I have tried, with no results, especially recently. I do everything I can and nothing at all, I experience and analyze, I let go and try to be there. Hopefully, I will yield more results as time goes on, but that's the beauty of shifting, isn't it?

Thank you for reading- I will keep my posts more concise as time goes on. Happy day, and may you shift tonight. -Rey

I am longing. I feel as though I do not belong here- but I cannot leave. Not yet.

how i manifest

note: anything works if you assume so

decide what i want

know it’s mine + accept my desire (in the 4d)

throughout the day i sometimes imagine whatever i want thats related to my desire (usually inner convos & visualization)

remain faithful to my new assumption. if any doubts or unfavorable things come up, i just say “it’s done” to remind myself that it is. period.

E A S Y. i repeat these steps whenever i feel like it. that’s it, i love you all🤍

welcome to my first post <3

as the title says, the law is always working in your favour.

for example, if you assume that you manifest instantly, you will literally manifest your desires instantly.

if you assume that manifesting is fake and it's impossible, thats exactly what will happen.

what I want you to understand is that the law can never defy you.

it ALWAYS and can ONLY materialise your assumptions.

the purpose of the law's existence is to prove that you are always right.

it doesn't have a mind, thoughts or awareness. it is not a conscious being.

The law is your servant, it does whatever you order it to do.

the law MUST obey you.

it doesn't have any real power, the only power it has comes from YOU.

YOU have the power, because you are the operant power/supereme being of your reality.

that is why there is nothing to change but self. everything is you, so the only thing you need to change is yourself. once you change self, the law shall prove it to be true.

you are constantly utilising the law whether you realise it or not, so why not make it work in your favour?
