This post is only for my journal but feel free to read. I don’t claim this as a success story since I don’t even know myself what it was.
Honestly, I’m not entirely sure what happened because I felt so drained that when I got back, I fell asleep without even taking notes 😭 But I’ll write everything I remember as clearly as I can.
At first, even while meditating, I felt my DR, which was strange because it was the first time I had felt so clearly like I was lying in that reality, in that bed, even before doing an OOBE or shifting. But it really only lasted for a very short time.
Then a memory flashed. I saw my DR face and my s/o and I were leaning against something at night, like at a campsite and I had a dark green hat on my head. I got startled by my mother’s movements in CR and got a little annoyed because my focus broke so I fell asleep repeating my mantra without taking off my headphones but also without trying to stay awake while doing my method. (And I guess I didn’t actually sleep? I’m not really sure.)
I swear it wasn’t a dream but it wasn’t exactly a shift either (or it was multiple shifts and not only one). It felt like something between a dream and a shift. I remember thinking about ... "(@/yunspidey I'll write her name because it is the only way to remember who is it lmao)" and there were also some people from Bridgerton there (in different states and I think he was Anthony) lmao. Everything was incredibly clear but it felt like my awareness kept shifting to different places. It slipped so easily. It was like experiencing everything everywhere all at once.
I remember shifting somewhere and saying that I needed to ground myself (that’s why I don’t think it was just a dream). It was a random reality. I was somewhere on my grandparents’ street and my vision was starting to become clearer. Everything was becoming incredibly vivid. But at the same time, I was thinking that shifting shouldn’t be like this because everything still wasn’t completely stable and it still felt slightly dreamlike.
It was like my dream self or astral body or whatever it was shifting every millisecond to somewhere else while I was half-conscious. I was trying to ground myself, my vision was clearing up but my awareness kept slipping between states.
Then I found myself in the void. I don’t remember the details very well because it felt like all my energy had been drained (and this is the first time I’ve ever felt like this). I wasn’t in a state to take notes which I usually do to avoid forgetting. It felt like I had physically traveled somewhere and wandered around for hours (it lasted about three hours, btw).
When I found myself in the void, I said I needed to manifest something, but I don’t even remember what I tried to manifest 😭 But I’m pretty sure I shifted to a parallel reality.
When I returned from the void, I didn’t wake up suddenly like from a dream. It felt like my awareness or astral body slowly returned (?) here and I woke up as if I had come back from a distant land. I don’t know how to describe it.. like a whooshing feeling 😭 It wasn’t like waking up from sleep.
I only remember the parts where my vision became clear and certain specific moments, but not the full details. I clearly remember thinking:
“I need to ground myself, my vision is getting clearer but something feels off because why does it still feel like I’m dreaming? Shifting should be clear, it shouldn’t feel like this.”
Maybe I was dreaming and then shifted into the void because I couldn’t become fully lucid? Or I shifted multiple times without grounding myself (couldn't actually) I honestly don’t know. I hate getting confused like this because most of my experiences are very clear and I can usually tell "yes, this is shifting" "no, this is astral" "no, this is lucid dream" etc. But this one? I genuinely have no idea.
All I know is that everything felt extremely real in that moment and when I came back, it felt like all my energy had been pulled away from me 😭

Hey there welcome baaack! Thought you disappeared haha
Good to know you waited for the right state of mind for the answers!
I'm the guy who loves Hekate's figure btw
Look i'm not diagnosed and I also did tests when I was a teen and nothing unusual came up but I swear, the more I live my life the more i think i have adhd hahahah or maybe something along neurodivergence
Loved the answer, we are who we are and we shouldn't focus on others! You're right, it's just i sometimes think I'm hyperaware, if that makes sense, it does to me but idk if it's ok to others.. i think I'm too aware of my surroundings, on other people and other stuff that it's just to difficult to "let go" like the fact I fear judgement on shifting or witchcraft related stuff! Like I could just go on with my life without people knowing anything so why am I fearing their eyes on me?
I think too much, i overthink.
But I'll work on that as you suggested
BTW i have news
I've been trying to use your method, I created a playlist and used them while asleep
I always end up sleeping but never reach that state where i count and keep missing numbers or making mistakes, i just end up sleeping pretty fast.
I tried different combos but sometimes I find subliminals that wake me up, and others that are ok and I usually end up putting my headphones away and one night I dreamed of my s/o!! Weirdly enough i've been so focused for 3 years on shifting and it's hard for me to dream of her but when it happens it's cool! I was working at an event and she was there and I somehow managed to get closer to her and walk beside her without people pushing me away and I remember telling her how much she cares to me and other stuff and she almost cried of happiness!
Never get to thate state of shifting but that dream was very vivid
And also i managed to get some tickets of an artist that I work with in my DR and I am going to try to ask for a photo pass for that concert as well! If I can't reach that reality by shifting I'll try it in my CR HAHAHAH (in my dr I met my s/o at this artist's concert so I'll keep ya updated lmao (I'm delusional) )
Hi again anon! :)
Honestly, I wasn’t diagnosed either, but I do think I have adhd since some signs point to it haha. I feel like everyone has a little bit of adhd these days.
And it doesn’t have to be okay for others as long as it’s okay for you! (as long as you're not crossing their boundaries iykwim) Even if people keep their eyes on you, it doesn’t matter! And like I said, as you change, your environment will change too, so you’ll naturally attract people who match your energy.
Oh and thanks for trying my method! And thanks for your feedback too! Try it whenever you’re not really sleepy if you feel like it! When I tried it during a nap, I actually had an oobe twice in a row!
And I’m so happy that you dreamt of your s/o! That’s such an amazing progress! Congratulations! Your s/o might love you so much! Thank you for sharing it with me, it was such a beautiful dream, and it feels really special that you told me! I appreciate it!
And the last time I had a vivid dream, I shifted a few days later! You’re probably much closer than you think!
And press all the buttons! I’m serious! What exists in your dr exists in your cr, and what exists in your cr exists in your dr! Let me know if anything happens! I’m so excited for you! And honestly, being delulu is the solulu, we call it a delusion, but you never know what could actually happen! Those “delusions” are what create our reality! (If you heard what I experienced with my twinflame, you wouldn’t call anything a delusion ever again trust me! haha)
°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･my weirdest lucid experience (so far) (connecting to shifting)°❀⋆.ೃ࿔*:･
I have absolutely no idea what happened, but something super weird happened last night, a new shifting and lucid dream experience (applause) (And honestly, I finally understand why people confuse lucid dreaming and shifting at some point. I’ll talk more about that in another post when I have the energy to write it all down. You actually can tell the difference, but for someone who doesn’t know about shifting, it can really feel like a lucid dream sometimes.)
Okay, so basically, I realized I was lucid, but it felt like the version of me inside the dream was the one who became lucid. I remember thinking, “Oh wait, I’m lucid dreaming.” (I don’t remember if I looked at my hand or poked it in the first or second lucid dream, but I did it at some point, I’ll get to that later.)
Anyway, I tried so hard to hold onto the dream. I was like, “Okay, you’re lucid dreaming. Don’t wake up, stay in that state.”
And when I realized I was lucid, I shifted, but again, it felt like the me inside the dream was the one who shifted. It was like there was a layer between my consciousness and myself.
That part was basically the dream becoming lucid. Honestly, I think this happened because I was extremely tired. That “layer” probably appeared because I was only half-aware of the dream part.
(And to be honest, the things I experienced have started to shake what I believe, like becoming aware of only one consciousness. But that’s a topic for another time, once I can actually make sense of it myself.)
The only problem is, I don’t know where I ended up. I remember thinking about my main dr, so I guess I shifted there, but it was slightly different? I usually focus on my dr bedroom, but I ended up somewhere that looked like an airport. (It was an airport)
I think I came out of a bathroom first, but I don’t remember clearly, my mind was foggy. Then I saw my s/o walking in front of me. He was really short (lmao I think puberty didn’t hit him yet) and I said “Hug me” because I was trying to ground myself there. Don’t judge me.
He looked a bit confused (probably because we were walking, maybe trying to catch a flight, and I was just like “hug me” out of nowhere, we weren’t even dating, hello?) but he said “Okay” and hugged me.
I still remember his expression so well (it was funny seeing him like that, If I can find a gif with the same facial expression I'll add it); he was like, “What the hell are you talking about out of nowhere?” It was short, maybe around 10 seconds, but I was there for a while.
I hugged him to ground myself until I stopped feeling disoriented, but my mind was wandering, thinking, this isn’t fully my dr.
I could feel the fabric of his shirt gathered under my hands, and I kind of knew it wasn’t exactly my dr, but he was there, he looked confused too.
I don’t know where we were exactly, but remember when I said I came out of a bathroom? It was a public restroom, and he was carrying luggage. So it was probably an airport.
I remember thinking, “He doesn’t look like this in my dr” because everything felt a bit off.
I even thought about texting Hana (If you don’t know her account, please check it out! She’s super sweet and I love her shifting stories 💕 @hanashin). One of my first thoughts after realizing I shifted was literally telling her about it..
I was thinking, but it also felt like the dream version of me was the one thinking.
I’ve been stuck between my lucid dream consciousness and my waking one (cr) before, and even between my astral state and waking state, but I’d never been between my lucid self and my shifted self (but here we are)
I don’t like using the word “stuck,” but it’s the only way I can describe it. It’s not like being trapped, more like being aware of both sides at once. (Please don’t imagine it like I’m carrying something between them, that’s not what I mean at all).
So yeah, I guess the best way (?) to explain this is that I was between my lucid self’s awareness and my shifted self’s awareness, not my current reality one. (Again, not stuck, just describing the situation.)
Now, I don’t remember the shifting part very clearly (because I was trying to ground myself and that was all I think about), but I remember still hugging him and suddenly saying, kind of panicking, “I’m going.” He looked so confused, like, “Where?” (or maybe he just frowned, not understanding, I’m not sure. He probably thought I was insane? Because girl, you're not going anywhere? I feel embarrassed).
Honestly, I don’t even know why I said that. I just knew my awareness was about to fade and go back into the lucid state. The version of me there was going to continue living normally; she wasn’t “going” anywhere.
But yeah.. I said it. He probably thought I lost my mind and started checking on me every few seconds.
Then I told him, “I’m gonna come back and explain everything,” (Please stop embarrassing yourself) and he said, “Okay okay” (I hope I went to restroom after saying this) Then I slipped back into the dream, and when I woke up, I had this heavy feeling in my chest.
I think because I couldn’t focus properly on my dr, I ended up shifting somewhere my s/o existed instead.
But it was crowded, and I struggled a lot to ground myself, you know that feeling when you're overstimulating when you're in public, that's how I felt. I couldn’t control it.
It was lucid-like; I was fighting to stay aware, like I was battling myself. But I was fighting to stay in lucid state, that's why I couldn't properly shift there.
I was there maybe for 10 seconds after shifting, trying to ground myself, but it still felt foggy. Then I think I melted again or slipped out of my shell? (I don’t even know how to explain that, it wasn’t like a physical shell.)
I remember poking my hand to check if I was still lucid, but it honestly felt like layers, like a dream within a dream after shifting.
According to my cr time, it lasted about two hours, like 1 hour 56 minutes or something.
I think I couldn’t ground because I was speaking (or maybe thinking) in my native language, or maybe because it wasn’t the exact reality I intended to shift to.
Because whenever I say “I wanna shift to my dr” in a lucid state, I usually end up coming back.
To be honest, I might not have become fully aware because I was so tired.
When I went back to a place that looked like a shopping mall (after shifting and “coming back,” I didn’t wake up immediately, I just kept dreaming), I thought, “Oh right, I was gonna change this and then shift back.”
(It was something I wanted to change in my cr, but to explain it simply, that shopping mall-type place was my cr.)
Then I thought, “What if it’s already changed?”
Then “What if it’s not? Should I check?”
But I told myself, “If you know it’s changed, you don’t need to check. You don’t check what you already know.”
(The “wish fulfilled” concept hit so real at that moment.)
After telling myself that, I felt this incredible sense of peace inside me, just knowing it was already done.
Somewhere in between (I don’t know if it was before or after shifting), I pinched myself. I felt the pain, it was on my right wrist, a bit higher up, and my s/o saw it and said, “What’s going on?”
(I ignored him because I was trying to ground myself.)
But at some points, it felt like I was watching everything from the outside, like an observer.
It was super weird, like I couldn’t completely get out of the lucid state because I was trying too hard to stay in it, while also shifting and staying between lucid and shifted states.
I don’t know how to explain it, but I still wanted to tell the whole story.
Even though I could tell what was happening, it was the first time I couldn’t figure out for a while if what I experienced was a lucid dream or an ungrounded shift.
My awareness slipped so easily that my lucid self felt like the version of me in my cr, like I had shifted into that cr and come back from it? It was honestly too complicated to explain.
Even if it was weird, I honestly enjoyed it, a lot, actually.
And it’s all part of the process! I realized my method works wonders for me, even when I’m tired as hell.
I really love enjoying the process and experiencing things that challenge what I believe.
I'm gonna try oobe next time instead of lucid because my awareness slips much easier in lucid..

i’ve been on this journey for a while now and have already manifested many things, even physical appearance changes, so i’m super excited to connect with others who are walking a similar path!
and if you have any questions feel free to use my ask box! (as long as i'm comfortable answering, of course) i'm trying to help as much as i can!
but i don't want people to think like i'm super powerful, full of knowledge or anything like that I'm some kind of guru. i'm just a girl on her own journey like everyone else, learning, searching everything and sharing her experiences and theories along the way!

you don’t have to agree with everything I say, some parts might not fully click for you, and that’s okay! you don’t have to believe every single word. what matters is how you interpret and use what i share according to your own beliefs. (you don't even have to use them or interpret at all!) i can only offer what i’ve experienced and what i believe, it’s up to you to make it your own.
