~ i have 10 DRs total but will only be introducing 4 of them!! the other ones just ain’t a priority for me and i wont be shifting to them anytime,, so i felt no need to add them._.
~ i don’t typically have any scripted face claims or significant others!! for my appearance i just script traits and over all vibes/concepts,, as for s/o’s.. i don’t really script anything but for s/o’s but do have some intentions but could definitely not follow through on them or even switch interests / feelings . .
~ i mash / merge all of my DRs!! basically taking typically more than 2 potentially completely separate DRs and merging them!!
~ i have a pinterest board for all of my DRs with at least 6 sections in each!! the sections i always have is closet, tops, bottoms, accessories, items, claims and aesthetics!! but for some boards i have sections for “magical” items, realms, inventions, powers and insta posts,, all boards are public on my account !
~ I ALWAYS script an older sister with the intention of her being like my OR sister (is that weird) idc she’s my soul sis 🤞🏻
~ because i mash / merge my DRs so much i label them with angel numbers!! mainly because i can’t just call them one term (ex. “mcu DR” or “supernatural DR”) i been doing this for almost 3 years and honestly love it,, and connecting the numbers to my DRs ! !
~ i have corresponding colors for all of my DRs? they typically match my powers and vibes of that DR / self,, for some DRS i have two main colors typically; *main color* + *white / brown / grey ect.*
~ my only shifting flex is my “aesthetic” scripts fr. it just makes scripting fun for my procrastinating self.. i also typically have 10 pages in my scrips with no pages in them(if that makes sense??) idk i just like having all the relating info in the same page(just me?)
~ i always script im taller ( like 5’10/ 177cm) .. i also script excessive tattoos and piercings bc i luv being a baddie
~ lastly i also typically script two middle and last names.. for the plot??? for fun?? l don’t even know it’s just nice

overview :⠀The United Front of America was founded in 1776 through a historic alliance between Indigenous nations and immigrant settlements. In the America I dream of, it is incredibly ethnically diverse and over brimming with nature and animal life. There is no "Columbus Day" because unfortunately he went overboard and drowned. Oh well. The "Europeans" and "Americans" lived together in relative harmony for a long time. Now of course, there were many conflicts between them, but none that ever ended in bloodshed. Following the Industrial Revolution, the natives agreed to let the settlers partake to some extent. Much like Russia, only about 37% of the country is densely populated while the rest is extremely spread out. This was the agreement. As one could expect, both parties weren't exactly thrilled about the agreement, but none of them had the heart to do something rash because in this world, people actually have morals and don't wipe out whole entire races. Now, in modern day time, it is considered the most diversified country with the population having a slightly greater number of Europeans and Americans then any other race. The UFA is not considered a "Christian State" because Christianity never spread to the Americas. However, it is free to practice as well as any other religion. This, among many other reasons, is why the UFA is considered the "World's Capital".

marlowe, ohio : 𝒮, lives in the midwestern part of the UFA. Ohio. Is it basically in the middle of nowhere like all Midwestern states. Not in my world. It's a beautiful mix of nature and city. 𝒮 lives on a family farm that sprawls on for acres. It's mostly a fruit farm with chickens, goats, cows, and horses. You can also find like a dozen stray cats just roaming around the place. There's also a lake and small rivers. You can think of Downtown Marlowe like a mini New York City (veerrryyy mini). Her school is just on the brink of the beautiful city and she's so grateful she gets to live there.
things to do : marlowe has so many things to do. whether it be carnivals , festivals , trampoline parks or walmart's.

⌕ You see what others don’t: a flash of movement, a pause too long, the breath someone forgets to take. The world whispers, and you’re nosy enough to listen.
⌕ Clues bloom in your mind like constellations. Patterns emerge from the static. You follow threads until the whole thing unravels, sometimes faster than your coffee cools.
⌕ You’re the one they call when things don’t add up. You don’t chase answers; you lure them out, patient as gravity, smug as someone who knew it all along.
⌕ Those under your care know you’ll cross oceans and break silence for them; because you have, and you would again. Justice to you, is personal.
⌕ Some nights it’s just you, the hum of your thoughts, and the pen clicking far too loud. Other times, your ragtag crew assembles: the hacker with the dramatic entrances, the friend who swears they’re “just here for moral support,” and the scholar who texts you case theories at 3 a.m.
⌕ Every space you enter stills for a moment, as if the world’s holding its breath, waiting to see what you’ll notice first. (It’s usually everything.)
⌕ You read faces like annotated novels. The twitch of a mouth, the blink that came half a beat too late, people tell you everything without meaning to.
⌕ Logic is your first language, intuition your accent. You think in probabilities, not certainties, which is why you’re right so annoyingly often.
⌕ Laws, ethics, psychology, even picking a lock: they orbit around you. Whatever skill the case demands, it shows up on time, well-practiced, like it knows better than to keep you waiting.
⌕ You adapt to any scene: gala, alleyway, midnight diner, cursed library, you belong wherever the mystery does.
⌕ Conversations tilt toward truth in your presence. Lies trip over themselves trying to keep up. You don’t even have to raise your voice.
⌕ You’re not in it for glory, you’re in it for that quiet moment when everything clicks, the thrill of the solve, but glory finds you anyway. You live for that moment when the story finally makes sense and the universe exhales.
⌕ You finish your cases, always. The world steadies, someone breathes easier and somewhere between the last clue and your next cup of coffee, you let yourself smirk, just once, before the next mystery calls.

𝓱ow to 𝓶ake meditating 𝓯un ✶ (as a girl who used to hate meditating) .
i get a lot of messages from people, asking how i managed to make meditating fun , as they just can’t seem to get into it . as a girl who loathed meditating and would literally fall asleep every time she tried, I’ll let you know some things i did to make the experience better!
001. start incorporating music !
okay . i know i bring up music in like every single post but it genuinely was the key to everything for me 😭😭. literally don’t know what i would’ve done without it .
i would make playlists with some calm yet not sleep inducing music (like rnb, soft pop!) and vibe out to the music while i chilled out .
people are always like “blah blah blah, you need to be focused to meditate!!!! meh meh meh” but really, all you need to meditate, is to be a mindful state! you can still get there without having to be sitting in suffocating silence babes .
002. play with fidgets !
having little pop its and zipper bracelets were always super fun for me while i was meditating, because i could do something with my hands to help me focus better!
i would hyperfocus on my hands and it would help me get settled quicker ! i also noticed chewing gum helps too if you’re more of a gum fan/don’t have any fidgets .
003. meditate in small amounts until you get more comfortable!
as a girl with the attention span of a fly, i noticed that starting off slow with meditation, as in listening to two-five minute videos to start, and then working your way up, helps a lot !
the more you do it (preferably with the same video, just so you can familiarize yourself with it,) the less time it feels like it takes . then, you can move onto a longer one and do the same thing !
004. romanticize it!
do your self care routine, have a nice meal, set up some candles, etc . make it “aesthetic” and cutesy ! every time i meditate, i feel like a princess because i have all my essential oils on, my skin is soft, my clothes are warm, like, it’s just perfect .
WHY YOU’RE ALREADY IN YOUR DR — EVEN IF YOU DON’T FEEL LIKE YOU ARE.
hi loves ♡ today, we’re getting a little nerdy — in the best way.
because it’s time we talk about the science of shifting.
specifically:
✧ why you’re already in your DR — even if you don’t feel like you are.
spoiler: it’s not magic. it’s not luck. it’s physics.
YOU EXIST IN A MULTIVERSE
according to quantum physics, you don’t live in one timeline. you live in infinite ones. every version of you that could exist — already does.
the one who shifted? they're real. the one who woke up in their DR this morning? also real. every decision you make, every thought you choose, places you in one thread of reality… out of infinite possibilities.
so when you say “i am in my DR” — you're not imagining. you're aligning.
YOUR AWARENESS = THE SELECTOR
your body doesn’t do the shifting. your consciousness does.
and your consciousness is the one thing that moves freely through timelines, instantly, effortlessly, constantly. you don’t have to “build” your DR — it already exists. you don’t even have to “go” there. you just have to tune into the version of you that already is there.
like changing the radio station. the song you want is already playing — you just have to tune your dial.
"BUT, RAE, WHY DON’T I FEEL LIKE I’M THERE YET?"
because feelings are old data. your body, your senses, your nervous system — they’re wired to show you what’s familiar, not what’s true.
your DR might already be active in consciousness — but your body’s still catching up. and that’s okay. that doesn’t mean you failed. it means you’re in the adjustment period. the space where you’ve already shifted, and now reality is syncing around you.
(it’s like traveling to a new country — the moment you land, you’re there. even if you haven’t left the plane yet.)
WHAT SCIENCE TELLS US:
✧ the observer effect — particles change behavior when observed. reality reacts to your focus.
✧ the multiverse theory — every possible version of your life exists simultaneously. your attention chooses which you experience.
✧ neuroplasticity — your brain literally rewires based on belief and repetition. your thoughts create your reality on a physical, biological level.
so when you say: “i am already there. my DR is my truth now.” you are not being delusional. you are being quantum.
There’s nothing special about this method. N o t h i n g. I think the only reason this method even works for me is because this is my natural way of thinking—meaning that if you read that, automatically you’ll see how any method works for you + you don’t even need a method to shift. You don’t need anything anymore.
This is just a little technique I’ve done since I was a little kid to dissiciate (for fun), and now I’ve learned how to translate it into shifting, so that I shift in seconds. Like an over-explained “just decide to be in your DR and live in the end.”
Having said that, I have no idea if this works for other people. It’s how I shift in seconds, and can enter the void state, but it might be because of my collective beliefs that are at this point, deeply ingrained in my being.
Maybe it’ll work for you, maybe you’ll learn to do it for fun to freak yourself out, maybe it won’t click and that’s okay. Just let go of this idea that you’re not in control. Stop hanfing over your power to meditations, methods, the void, and shifting “tips,” hoping for that one line that will “fix” you, waiting for a new method to tell you why you’re “not shifting,” handing over your power to external crap you claim you want to control.
1) Do this when your awareness is most malleable: At night before bed (hypnagogia), middle of the night (WBTB), in the morning (hypnopompia), or anytime during the day when you’re calm. It’s completely up to you, but I feel that inducing an altered state of consciousness while you’re already in an altered state is better.
2) Get comfortable in whatever position you prefer, close your eyes or don’t, play brown noise or music if you want, but it doesn’t matter.
3) Observe your awareness. If you’re familiar with the concept of natural awareness, it’s exactly that. Become aware of awareness itself, identifying only with your awareness, letting everything else drop away. This is your true self, your vantage point. The way you do this is entirely specific to you. Some people just think about their awareness, some know how to pin-point it naturally, others just focus on the fact that they’re aware and dissociate with that.
*If I just focus on this step and don’t go further, I end up in the void. That’s because if I’m just observing my awareness, I automatically know that all else is illusion inside my awareness, so my environment melts away and I “enter” the void. There is nothing complicated about this process, so please don’t think it’s some grand thing. It’s literally just:
Me, observing my awareness: “Oh look, my true self :)”
Narrator: Clover got sucked into the void through a silly straw and will have an existential crisis about this tomorrow.
4) Observe your DR from the vantage point of the awareness that’s already inside it. Not visualizing, not forcing—simply letting your awareness be there, observing your DR environment the way it naturally would.
(I’m talking in circles to prove a point, so if I’m repeating myself, that’s why).
For example, right now you’re awareness itself. You know you’re in your CR because your senses—sight, sound, touch, taste, smell—are giving you signals inside your awareness. You look around, hear noises, feel the air, etc.
But when you’re lying in bed at night with your eyes closed, sight is gone. The only things left telling you you’re in your CR are sound, touch, taste, and smell. If you’re wearing earbuds, the sounds you hear don’t confirm your CR because you could hear them in any reality. Silence or soft sounds could be your DR too. The taste in your mouth would be the same in your DR. The feeling of your bed could match waking up in your DR.
The point is: If you strip away all your senses, the only thing confirming where you are is your awareness itself. The feeling of simply existing here. The knowing that you’re “here.” This doesn’t require visualization, only awareness.
Now that you’ve located that awareness, you can shift it to your DR. Take that exact feeling of simply being aware and place it in your DR. Now senses don’t matter, because you decided to be in your DR through awareness.
For why senses don’t determine location, see this post.
You’re observing your awareness in your DR, and now you’re there. You can strip away all senses, but you can never strip away awareness. Awareness is your true self, and awareness can be moved. If you became aware of your DR, you’re already inside your DR. All that’s left to do is recognize that. Let yourself know: “This is real, this is happening right now,” and really ground yourself in that undeniable fact. It’s not about senses or visualization, or even forced knowing you’re there. It’s about observing the fact that you’re aware in your DR from the vantage point of the awareness that’s there.
5) Pair it with the obvious: You’re aware in your DR. Think about that for a second: if you’re aware in your DR, it means you’re there. Obviously. Why wouldn’t you be in your DR if you’re observing your awareness in it right now? It literally makes no sense to assume otherwise.
You’ve been observing your awareness in your CR your entire life, from the vantage point of your awareness. That’s how you know you’re in your CR—because your awareness is observing itself here. That’s the mechanism that tells you “I’m here.”
Now, when you’re doing this method and flip your vantage point to observe your awareness in your DR—from your awareness—why the hell would you not be in your DR? There’s no logical loophole your brain can pull here. If your vantage point of awareness determines your “location,” and you are now observing your awareness in your DR, then by the very mechanism that has always proven your location to you, you are in your DR.
You’re no longer “here” in your CR. You’re in your DR, because that’s where your awareness is observing itself. It’s not complicated. It’s not wishful thinking or “pretending.” It’s the exact same structure of reality that’s always been running—now applied to your DR.
And yes, your brain will glitch out, scramble, grasp at straws, telling you “but but but” because it’s conditioned to assume your CR vantage point is permanent. It’s not. The vantage point is flexible, and you just proved it by moving your observation to your DR.
So let it sink in. Let it feel too real, like reality cracking open. Let the glitch happen, let the discomfort hit, let the confusion swirl and keep standing your ground:
There’s no logical reason you would still be in your CR right now. You have to be in your DR, because that’s what you’re observing.
Your vantage point has shifted. You’ve done it. Now, hold it.
It’s not done because you’re “faking it.” It’s done because you have the vantage, the evidence, the awareness, and the logic to prove it to yourself in real time. You observe your awareness in your DR. You let it be there. And it is.
The method is just:
1.get comfortable, 2. dissociate by observing your awareness and only identifying with it, 3. observe your awareness in your DR from the vantage point of being in your DR, 4. “If I’m aware in my DR, how the hell can I still be in my CR? Isn’t that the whole point? If I intended to shift, doesn’t that automatically mean I shifted? I can’t perform an action and not get the outcome of that action. It doesn’t make sense for me not to be in my DR. dafuq”
Click this if this was too convoluted to understand
That was the simplified version. But for the people who still feel like they don’t get it, or aren’t sure how to locate their own awareness, read on.
Disclaimer: We will be using dissociation intentionally. If that's something you struggle with, have trauma around, or if it negatively impacts your mental health, be cautious. Don’t do this. No shifting method, technique, or “reality” is worth sacrificing your health for. Ever. Your well-being comes first. Always.
How to Become Aware of Your Own Awareness (and Control What You’re Aware Of)
At first glance, it sounds like a paradox: how can you be aware of being aware? Isn’t awareness just… happening? Isn’t it passive, like a window things pass through? That’s exactly the point. Most of the time, awareness is transparent. You’re so focused on what it’s pointed at—your phone, your thoughts, the itch on your neck—that you don’t notice it. But once you learn to turn awareness back onto itself, it’s like noticing your breath for the first time: you realize you’re the one controlling it.
Let’s break it down with the breathing example. We don’t usually notice our breathing; it’s automatic, subconscious. But the moment you read this and become aware of it, suddenly you’re controlling it (sorry if I made you notice ߹𖥦߹). That “manual” feeling is the moment consciousness turns inward. The invisible becomes visible.
Now let’s apply that same logic to awareness. For this, I’ll give you three techniques. All of them work the same, but you test out each one and see which of them fit you. And I mean really try. Don’t just passively try one and then speed through the list, because that’s how you’ll reach the end feeling disheartened that none of them worked for you. (And they all do) (that’s why I’m giving you three)
What I’m sharing now is a technique to help you identify purely with your awareness throughout your day. We’ll translate them to shifting later. This is a way to become your true self—pure awareness—and to see through the illusion, recognizing how flimsy its construction really is. The crucial point in all these exercises, whichever one you choose, is to focus entirely on YOUR AWARENESS. This focus is essential because the goal here is to learn how to become pure awareness at will.
Some people might have already done this before, especially when they were kids. And if it’s something that you can already do at will regularly, you’ll read this and go “ooohh I know what you’re talking about. That thing.” Yeah, that thing asdfghjk. So if you already know how to do it, just skip to the shifting part.
#1 The Fixed Point Method
Pick any fixed point—your phone, a book, the wall, a banana, a floor tile, a cup, literally anything around you. Stare at it without shifting your gaze. You can blink, that’s fine, just keep your attention anchored there.
As you stare, quietly repeat in your mind: “I am aware right now.” Keep repeating it while letting your awareness settle on being aware as you stare.
Over time, you’ll notice the room around you begins to blur or fade. Your body may start to feel distant or unreal, sounds will become muffled, and you may feel like you’re sinking inward, floating behind your eyes.
This happens because your awareness is locking onto a single point while withdrawing from everything else, similar to how the Troxler effect makes your peripheral vision fade when you fixate on one spot for long enough. Except, unlike the Troxler effect, this isn’t just a visual trick. It’s a shift in awareness itself, pulling your focus away from the environment and into the raw, pure fact that you are aware.
Stay in this state until you feel hyper-real, detached, and clear—like you’re seeing the world from a layer behind your thoughts. Congratulations, you now know what it feels like to be a toddler who’s just gained consciousness :)
#2 The “This Is All Happening Right Now” Method
My personal favorite and the one I use all the time. Sit or lay down comfortably. Focus on the fact that you are alive and aware right now. You. Focus on you. Look at your hands, your feet, your body, and repeat out loud “This is all happening right now. This is really happening right now.” The point is for you to become hyper-aware of the fact that you are alive and experiencing reality right this second.
Each time you say it, feel your aliveness, your awareness, your existence. The glitch will kick in, the present moment will feel dreamlike, everything will feel too real, like reality is cracking open.
Let yourself fall into that glitchy hyper-awareness until the environment feels like a lucid dream.
And that’s the fun part, because it DOES feel like a lucid dream. It’s freaky.
#3 The Reality Check Method
It’s the exact same method from above, except this time you pivot your focus away from your body and existence, to the environment around you. Sit or stand and look around your room.
Observe everything: the walls, objects, lights, shadows.
Say to yourself: “This is really happening right now. This is my reality.”
Let yourself feel how strange it is to exist, to see, to hear. Keep repeating and observing until the environment starts to feel detached from you while you remain aware, like you are observing a simulation. Stay in that dissonance until you slip into full dissociation, where reality starts to feel like a lucid dream.
(*If you tried these, and you realized they all rolled into one single method !! it’s okay !! It happens !! it’s actually better if you tailor it to fit what works for you)
When you become aware of your awareness, your mind pulls back from the movie screen and sees itself projecting. Reality starts feeling hyper-real, sharpened, dreamlike, like colors are popping, air feels thick, and your thoughts get quiet. You feel dissociation, but it’s not emptiness—it’s clarity. It’s like a glitch, because your awareness is detaching from the illusion of continuity you’ve been fed.
You feel like you’re “behind your eyes,” watching yourself watching. The longer you stay here, the more you feel how reality is mediated through you. All sights, sounds, sensations, all of reality—filtered through awareness. It’s eerie to realize that everything is happening inside your consciousness, not outside of it. And that’s because it is.
For the people who want to enter the void with this:
Just take the method that worked for you during the day, and instead of your CR environment or body, replace it with awareness.
1) The fixed point should be your awareness OR the black behind your eyelids.
2) “Oh my god this is happening right now” should be as you observe your awareness instead of your body—freaking out like “I’m just my awareness, this is really happening right now, I’m just my awareness.”
3) And instead of a reality check while looking at your surroundings, you’re going to observe the black behind your eyelids while you say, for example, “This is really happening right now. I’m in the void, this is real.”
And that’s it. The rest of this post is for people looking to shift realities (or manifest tbh), sooo happy diving into the void <3
Applying this to reality shifting
When you say: “I am aware of my DR,” you are observing your DR within awareness. But because awareness is the vantage point, if you are observing your DR within it, then you are already ‘in’ your DR as far as vantage and experience go.
There is no separation between: “being aware of DR” and “being in DR,” because all experience is happening within awareness itself.
In simple terms:
You are always “aware of.”
But because everything you are “aware of” is happening within awareness, you are “in” it from the vantage of experience. The reason “aware of DR” = “aware in DR” is because you can only ever experience your DR inside awareness, and awareness is the vantage point of being “in.” The illusion is thinking your body is the vantage point. It’s not—awareness is.
You’ve trained yourself to identify as your awareness using these methods. Now, to shift, you simply do the exact same methods with your DR as your vantage point.
#1 The Fixed Point Method → Shifting Version
What you did: You stared at a fixed point until everything blurred, letting yourself become only awareness.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes. Let your awareness itself become the fixed point. Not the wall, not an object; your awareness. Don’t visualize your DR, don’t try to see it. You can if you’d like, and it might boost this, but it’s not necessary at all.
Lock your focus onto your awareness and know: “I am aware of my DR right now.” “My DR is here.” “I am only awareness.” Just like you did before, except now the vantage point is wherever you’re waking up in your DR.
Let your CR blur out as you tunnel your focus onto awareness, with your DR as its location. Let everything else dissolve. That’s it.
#2 “This Is Really Happening Right Now” Method → Shifting Version
What it was: You repeated “This is really happening right now” while focusing on your body, your entire being, becoming hyper-aware that you are alive and here.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes, get still, yada yada yada.
Now, instead of focusing on your CR body as your vantage point, recognize that your awareness is always inside a body—and you decide which body that vantage point belongs to. Your DR body is this body, right now, because your awareness is what makes it so. Your DR body isn’t somewhere out there in another location. It’s here, now, because you are observing it.
So instead of focusing on your CR body by looking at it, you’re going to focus on your DR body by being aware of it. By shifting your awareness vantage point to the one that’s in your DR body. This could include visualization if you want, but it’s not necessary, because the visuals are not the focus. The awareness is.
*If I tell you to just “be” in your body right now, you just are. You know it, claim it, a firm “yes, I’m in my body right now.” You don’t call it your “CR body”, it’s just “your body.” That’s because you’re in the vantage point of your body always. To shift it to your DR body, it’s the same thing. There’s no rationalizing, just “yes, I’m aware of my body, I’m aware in my body right now” from the vantage point in your DR.
*If that sounds too complicated, it’s just like “pretend you’re existing in your DR body while being in your DR” just stronger.
Start repeating:
“This is really happening right now.”
“I am in my DR right now.”
“I am aware in my DR.”
Don’t say these as if you’re hoping for it to happen; say them while letting your awareness claim the vantage point of your DR as your here-and-now.
With each repetition, let it hit:
– Your vantage point is now your DR vantage point.
– Your awareness is your DR self, right here, right now.
– This is not pretend. This is your perspective now.
Allow that hyper-real, glitchy feeling to bubble up as the illusion of separation collapses. You are not waiting to shift. You are becoming aware that you are already shifted.
That’s your shift. That’s it.
#3 Reality Check Method → Shifting Version
What it was: In your CR, you’d look around and repeat “This is real, this is happening” to become hyper-aware of your surroundings.
How to shift with it: Lie down, close your eyes. Become aware of your awareness itself. Let it locate in your DR vantage point, just like you would in your CR when looking around.
(edit: you can also have your eyes open and look around your room in the pitch black darkness, becoming aware that it’s your DR room, just like this anon did :)
Without visualizing, know your DR is right there. You aren’t trying to see it; you know it is there, and your awareness automatically knows where it is and begins to move within it.
Repeat: “This is real.” “This is my reality.” “I am here right now.” “This is happening right now.”
All while moving your awareness around your DR environment, letting it sink in that you’re here, in your DR, because you’re aware in it. Let yourself notice how strange and obvious it is that your DR is right there, right now. Let yourself feel how your awareness is already aware there, scanning your DR the way it would scan your CR.
This isn’t forcing, and it isn’t visualization. It’s allowing your awareness to take its natural place in your DR vantage point, observing that it’s there, because it is. Let that glitchy, lucid feeling stabilize.
In my opinion, observing your awareness is the root mechanism behind how you manifest things, even unconsciously. When you decide you want something, you automatically begin observing your awareness in the outcome—whether you realize it or not. That act of observing places your vantage point in the reality where it’s yours, and your awareness “renders” the experience.
Examples:
• You decide you want a specific text, and suddenly you find yourself checking your phone, aware of the possibility of it arriving—and it does.
• You decide you want a specific item, and you find yourself daydreaming about having it—and then you stumble across it on sale or someone gifts it to you.
• You decide you want clear skin, and you find yourself observing your reflection as if it’s already clear—and your skin improves rapidly.
You aren’t “forcing” these things to happen; you’re shifting your awareness toward the reality where they already are. That’s the real mechanism behind manifestation: awareness observes, vantage aligns, reality reflects.
I’m not sure I did a good job explaining this, but I don’t even know how to explain this to people. That’s because shifting is not some grand ritual or complicated checklist for me. It’s just something I do, without ceremony, without second-guessing, without spiraling about whether it’s “working.”
I decide I want to shift, so I lie down, let everything go quiet, and simply observe my awareness in my DR. That’s it. It happens.
But it’s not random. It works because it’s the natural culmination of everything I believe:
• I know that awareness is the only real vantage point. I know that “aware of” and “aware in” are the same, so if I observe my DR, I’m already there.
• I know reality is an illusion built on continuity, and I don’t need to “cross over” physically to get somewhere I already am.
• I know action = outcome no matter what, so if I take the action of observing my awareness in my DR, there’s no logical reason why I wouldn’t be in it.
• I know that desires manifest instantly when I observe them as done, because vantage determines experience.
• I know I don’t need to convince myself while doing it, because the proof is already there. Proof of the desired outcome is the decision you already have it.
It’s not something I “try.” It just is for me, because I trust the framework I’ve built. That’s why I don’t overcomplicate it. I don’t wait for a sign, a feeling, or for something to “click.” I don’t spiral over whether it’s “working.”
I just become my awareness, observe that awareness in my DR, and it happens. Because there’s nowhere else I could logically be.
Even if you don’t find this helpful as a shifting method, you can still incorporate pieces of it in whatever works for you. WHY?

Need alien species for your futuristic DR (or story)? Here are a few alien species you can use!
I was gonna originally post all 17 species in one post, but it was taking far too long so I split it into 3 parts, each post will feature 5-6 species.
I included things like intelligence and obedience to natural law in the stats section for each species. Intelligence is, of course, how smart the species is on average. An intellect level of 5 is how smart mankind is.
Sustainability refers to how sustainable the species' lifestyle is concerning their planet. Humankind is a 3.5/10.
Energy resourcefulness refers to how much energy is used and not wasted. I would've placed this in sustainability, but I think having its own stat would be better. A higher level of resourcefulness would indicate that the species' energy sources do not harm the environment, are plentiful, and the cost of energy is monetarily $0.
Awareness reflects how well the species knows the universe. it's difficult to say where we humans are on this scale, but I'd say 2.5 would suffice. 0 would mean that the species barely even knows why the sky changes, and 10 would mean that the species is essentially all-knowing.
Astral awareness refers to how well the species can manipulate and enter other dimensions, successfully practice spiritual rituals (like shifting and astral projection), and know of other realms of existence. A higher awareness score insinuates the species is incredibly enlightened in the sense of life and death and likely rejects all forms of religion except for maybe one (which would prob be a universal truth).
If you plan to use any of these, plz credit me (and the artist if applicable) tyyyyyyy!

Species Name: Akos (Ah-coe-s)
Appearance Notes: The Akos all tend to have blue, purple, pink, or bright white skin (albinism). Having albinism is considered quite attractive in many regions, but it's not like other colors are considered unattractive. Similar to how humans have races, so do the Akos; Blue (Akayn), Purple (Orakyn), Pink (Ueakyn). White-skinned Akos are not considered a race, as it's a genetic deformity rather than a race. Akos all collectively have bigger eyeballs than humans do. White-skinned Akos tend to squint more often (their eyes are more sensitive to light), so their eyes often appear to be less larger (the eyeballs themselves are still just as large as the average Akos). Blue-skinned (Akayn) are the most abundant, making up about 40% of the Akos population. The Akayn have thicker eyelashes and plumper lips than most other Akos. Pink-skinned Akos (Ueakyn) have slightly yellower eyes and their irises tend to be more colorful. Ueakyn tend to be taller than the average Akos. Purple-skinned Akos (Orakyn) tend to have soft whisper-like voices, 1A sleek hair, and freckled skin. Silver-colored jewelry is also considered attractive, so many Akos like to wear piercings.
Sexual Dimorphism: Similar to humans, male akaes (akaes=plural akos) are taller than female akaes. Unlike humans, however, male akaes are not innately physically stronger than female akaes. Female akaes can build muscle as easily as male akaes.
"Sexual dimorphism is the condition where sexes of the same species exhibit different morphological characteristics, including characteristics not directly involved in reproduction. The condition occurs in most dioecious species, which consist of most animals and some plants."
Preferred Climate: The Akos prefer to live on planets with relatively the same gravity pull as ours, but slightly colder temperatures are most ideal for them. If the Akos felt as warm as we do in our resting state, they'd start sweating a bit, and complain about the heat.
Dietary Habits: They eat plants and animals but tend to prefer consuming luminescent plant material due to its nutrients-- this is why their skin appears to be light blue. They can orally drink water or absorb water through their skin.
Lifestyle & Society: Akos value both nature and education. One of the Akos' primary goals is to keep their planet healthy-- they're way more proactive with climate stuff than us. A lot of akos also attend random lectures they're interested in weekly.
Norms: The akos prefer the taste of steaming hot mineral water from hot springs. The akos tend to be more inviting to touch between the same gender. To celebrate adulthood, akos will have someone drill a hole in their canine teeth and permanently bond a crystal in said hole.
Other Details: The Akos are very similar to humans in appearance. I think we'd be less afraid of aliens if they looked like the Akos lmao

Species Name: Ulorons (Oo-‘lore’-ens)
Appearance Notes: Flatter faces, spotty skin, dual-toned skin, no iris/pupils, generally stocky (short). The Ulorons, like the Akos, can be separated into distinct races. The race pictured in the image is the Nerol; they live in warm, dark, and well-vegetated environments. The race more accustomed to sunlight is the Allyrios. They too prefer warm and verdant environments, but they much prefer sunlight. The plant-like protrusions coming out of their bodies feel similar to feathers but are kinda rough like plants. They need to trim off any that brown, otherwise, too many of their leaves will brown, which could lead to a permanent loss in fatigue. These leaves grow around the upper part of their necks, and short-stemmed ones will grow on the arms.
Sexual Dimorphism: Female ulorons are typically taller and leaner than males. Females also tend to grow more feathery plant-like appendages from their bodies than male ulorons.
"Sexual dimorphism is the condition where sexes of the same species exhibit different morphological characteristics, including characteristics not directly involved in reproduction. The condition occurs in most dioecious species, which consist of most animals and some plants."
Preferred Climate: Warm places with lots of vegetation. Sunlight depends on race, but both fare well in well-lit and dark places.
Dietary Habits: They only eat plants and insects; soft-bodied grubs are considered a delicacy. Ulorons need to drink more water than the average human to keep themselves hydrated; like the Akos, they can absorb water through their skin.
Lifestyle & Society: The Ulorons speak with a series of clicks, some produced from deep in the throat, and others made directly from the teeth and tongue. The Ulorons prioritize exploration and the family; it's not uncommon to see Ulorons live in weird-looking homes made from rare materials. Ulorons sleep in small ditches filled with fluffy flowers and water.
Norms: It's frowned upon to stay in another Ulorons' house for too long, this is unless you're an Allyrios moving to live with Nerol (and vice versa). This is because the Ulorons see it as stealing someone else's status/name. Siblings always share sleeping quarters. Your house shows your status; the rarer material your house is made out of, or the more complex your house is, the 'wealthier' you are.
Other Details: Very materialistic species, will also wear stones they find/dig up around. They do not know of other species or other beings outside their own planet just yet.

Species Name: Can'thera
Appearance Notes: They're like cat humans; fluffy, stands on two legs, and has many color variations. The can'thera also separate themselves into two species, long-haired and short-haired. This species prefers to wear silky robes and long loose clothing, jewelry (it's not uncommon to pierce the ears), and some even embed jewels in their teeth. Their hands are similar to ours (but like the back of the hand is covered with fur) but they still have retractable claws.
Sexual Dimorphism: The can'thera don't really differ from each other gender-wise; both males and females wear the same kind of clothing.
"Sexual dimorphism is the condition where sexes of the same species exhibit different morphological characteristics, including characteristics not directly involved in reproduction. The condition occurs in most dioecious species, which consist of most animals and some plants."
Preferred Climate: The can'thera prefer to live in a very similar climate to us; a temperate planet with lots of water. Unlike cats on earth, can'theras are not adverse to water. They like to live in simple but tall homes; muted colors are most prefered.
Dietary Habits: Can'theras primarily consume algae and meat. They do prefer to eat marine wildlife, but they have started consuming land animals for sustainability reasons.
Lifestyle & Society: Most can'theras prefer to have a lot of alone time. Generally, can'theras can be a little snappy... they also get irritated easily and are sensitive to temperature. Most can'theras prefer the company of their families. Their families tend to be pretty large since it's not uncommon for mothers to birth to more than 1 baby (the average would be 2-3 babies, they wouldn't necessarily be twins, but it can happen).
Norms: It's common to take hour-long naps sometime in the afternoon; most places will offer comfy bedding of some kind to accommodate this instinct. Similar to humans, stealing is a thing; can'theras will sleep with their belongings near their chests in public settings.
Other Details: Can'theras aren't super crazy over their appearance, (though they def do care, just not as much as us) but they do exhibit materialistic habits.

Species Name: Xo"yuoranthe (Zo-yoo-'or'-'Anne'-th)
Appearance Notes: The Xos (plural and short for Xo"yuoranthe) are pretty tall on average (around 8' 4" on average, they can get up to 9' 7"). They're covered in small fine hairs, even their tongue has some fuzz on it (eugh..). It's dangerous for a Xo to get fat-- the extra weight will harm the legs, causing the Xo to be kinda bow-legged. They have long purple tongues and 2 rows of flat teeth (like 2 rows of teeth on the upper jaw and lower jaw).
Sexual Dimorphism: Females are bigger-boned and have rounder heads. Females also tend to have larger deep-set eyes.
"Sexual dimorphism is the condition where sexes of the same species exhibit different morphological characteristics, including characteristics not directly involved in reproduction. The condition occurs in most dioecious species, which consist of most animals and some plants."
Preferred Climate: The Xos prefer warmer climates-- I don't mean temperate, but like hot enough for us to sweat profusely. Colder weather causes their movements to be slower than usual.
Dietary Habits: Due to their teeth, they prefer eating mushy things, specifically grubs, but they do grind things down into pastes (like meat and plants) so they can consume them more easily.
Lifestyle & Society: Older Xos used to have a hard time moving because their bones and joints would get really stiff, but now the Xos have developed technology to resolve that issue. The Xos communicate telepathically; physical communication is considered primitive unless you're writing something for record-keeping purposes.
Norms: Having long nails is looked down upon; it kinda represents laziness since having long nails can get in the way of doing stuff (yall just haven't seen my alruna nail set yet 😒😒)
Other Details: The Xos are extremely technologically advanced. Religion is absolutely not a thing for them; the universal truth is a concept they continue to research every day. They also sleep sitting up.

Species Name: Orieepothtis ('or'-ree-poe-th-tis)
Appearance Notes: When standing upright, they are typically around 6 feet tall (on average). Oriee (short for Orieepothtis) varies from dark blue, dark red, and black. The Oriee have no eyes, but they can sense things using ecolocation. They have long spiney tails; they use these tails to travel together, especially with children, and to hunt. Despite their lanky build, Oriees are incredibly muscular. The spikes on their backs are not retractable; Oriees sleep curled up on their sides. Their skin is thick and feels similar to chitin.
Sexual Dimorphism: Females are more likely to have black skin and the sounds they make can sound more chitter-y than males.
"Sexual dimorphism is the condition where sexes of the same species exhibit different morphological characteristics, including characteristics not directly involved in reproduction. The condition occurs in most dioecious species, which consist of most animals and some plants."
Preferred Climate: Oriees prefer a dark and cold climate (not cold enough for water to be ice). Oriees like to live underground in caves, but will venture to the surface in search of food for winter.
Dietary Habits: Oriees eat pretty much any greenery, grubs, and wildlife they can get their hands on. They like eating ice and snow.
Lifestyle & Society: Oriees will keep snow and ice in a designated room inside their cave system just to munch on it every now and then. Oriees can speak telepathically and physically, but they prefer to talk to others they don't know physically. Close family and friends often speak telepathically. When they speak, the sounds they make sound warbly, a little screechy, and like soft pitter-pattering against wood (like the sound of a dog walking around your house).
Norms: Oriees are generally calm and hardworking. They aren't materialistic, and don't really understand the concept much (like they understand that people value material goods-- they're kinda just like "...but it's useless in the end" yk?) because they can't see.
Other Details: Children like to use echolocation to scare each other or their parents.
