If you are LGBTQ+, Dionysos is your God!

If you are a POC, Dionysos is your God!

If you are an immigrant or foreigner, Dionysos is your God!

If you are a woman, Dionysos is your God!

If you are oppressed or downtrodden, Dionysos is your God!

With a touch of His finger, chains fall away!

With the tremor of His cry, the houses of the tyrants crumble!

We have no king but Bakkhos!

sometimes I see old shiftoks like " 10 reasons you aren't shifting " nd one of them is " stop being so obsessed with your dr! Seriously you're acting like a little kid! " WRONG! Be excited! It's your reality, & that won't stop you from shifting 🫶

Say it with me: It's NOT a failed attempt. It's an attempt that will bring you closer to shifting.

is anyone else excited to shift to a reality where phones don't exist? like i see people on tiktok and such giving advice for scripting phones and devices but i'm EXCITED to no longer have a phone. as convenient as they are i feel like they really take away from really connecting with people and, quite honestly, have really lowered my attention span (a big thank you to social media). like i'm not going to pretend i don't love my phone but i just feel like i'll be a much happier person once i don't have it with me for days if not months on end in the future.

a reminder that deities you work with don't hate you for not being able to do things, especially not if you're physically or mentally able to!

the gods understand that we're not perfect, that we're just fleshy meat sacks and that some of us aren't able to do things as much, and you shouldn't compare your craft to anyone else's! it's yours after all.

and if you're worried that your offerings aren't good enough, think about it like this. if a little crow came up to you and gave you a stick, you wouldn't think "what a dumb crow, why'd you give me a stick?", would you? no! you'd know that the little crow is doing his best and wanted to give you a gift. to the deities, you're that little crow, and they know you're doing your best <3

You don't NEED anything to shift. You don't need affirmations. You don't need to visualise. You don't need a subliminal. You don't need to reread your script. You don't need to feel happy to shift. You can just shift. You can shift while napping. You can shift because you decided you are going to do that tonight. If affirmations, visualisation, subliminals, re-reading your script, and feeling happy help you, then do it. But you only need YOU to shift. Whoever is reading this is going to shift because they can. I WILL SHIFT. YOU WILL SHIFT. Because we are amazing humans who deserve it.

GUYS I JUST FIGURED OUT INTENTION. LIKE ACTUALLY.

Every time I've tried to set intention, it's always been a "failure." It's super annoying, but I was like "what am I doing wrong?

I KNOW WHAT I WAS DOING WRONG.

Every time I've tried to shift, it's always been without actual intention. I was repeating words, but not their meanings.

What is shifting to you?

It doesn't matter why your shifting, but the emotions and thought process does. When you wake up in your DR, what will you feel? Not physically, but emotionally.

THAT IS WHAT GIVES YOUR INTENTION, YOUR WILL TO SHIFT. THAT ALONE CAN, AND WILL SHIFT YOU.

To set intention, you feel the weight of your words. Ask yourself, what do you emotionally feel about shifting? That emotion you feel, right now, in that universe, is enough to shift you. When you lay down, and close your eyes, no matter the method, when you shift, you have to think about the emotional impact you'll have waking up on your DR bed or area. Think about the feeling of your environment. How happy you'll be to feel that one thing there. And once you feel that happiness, that excitement, affirm. "I am shifting." Or, if it pleases you, say "i have already shifted." And you wanna know why that shifts you? Because your emotions are your intentions.

THIS CAN BE SAID ABOUT LITERALLY ANYTHING. TO MY CLUELESS INTENTION SHIFTERS/MANIFESTORS/LOA, KNOW YOUR INTENTION IS JUST YOUR EMOTIONS PUT INTO PRESENT TENSE.

as a writer who shifts realities, I have a massive urge to make a script for a new DR where I can learn more about my characters and the world that I'm building. like .. just IMAGINE adding the " based on a true story " after finishing the book. AHHHHH. there are so many advantages for writers tho. you can describe their features and personalities well because YOU HAVE SEEN THEM AND TALK TO THEM. shifting is just so beautiful. idc if people think I'm taking the easy way or something but WIN IS a WIN.

a vent

cw ; lots of swears and curses , mention of grooming

if i see another pick me shifter discussing the topic of aging yourself up and down i will claw my ribcage open

SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!

IM SO SICK OF YALL FOR MAKING PEOPLE FEEL GUILTY FOR WANTING TO EXPERIENCE DIFFERENT DR/S OR EVEN IDEAS THAN YOURS. LET PEOPLE FUCKING LIVE.

'it seems like i'm the only one that doesn't wanna be a groomer' WHENEVER THEY SEE A POST OF SOMEONE AGING THEMSELVES DOWN!!! WITH ALL THE DISRESPECT IN THE MULTIVERSE/S FUCK YOU!!!!

YOU ARE NOT JUST ONE BODY. YOU ARE EVERYTHING. YOU ARE YOUNG AND OLD AND DEPPRESSED AND EUPHORIC AND SHY AND BOLD AND HUMAN AND INHUMANE AND BLUE AND RED AND PURPLE AND ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!!!!

THIS REALITY IS JUST LIKE ANY OTHER FUCKING REALITY (UNLESS YOU DECIDE OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF YOU DO DECIDE OTHERWISE YOU CANT FORCE EVERYONE TO BELIEVE THAT THEY ALL SHOULD FEEL THE SAME WAY AS YOU!!!!

everyone will age, you will outgrow your favorite shows and cc/s, so what? are you gonna just throw away these worlds, people, and lifetimes just because you're not in the same age? you won't. and don't come here lying to me saying that you will abandon everything you've ever liked // loved just because you're 'too old' for it.

and what if you're 60 years old and still shifting, are you gonna only shift to 60s appropriate shows because hey you're too old to be studying at hogwarts? NO TELL ME BECAUSE I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW.

you will shift and be the same age you script yourself in unless you state otherwise. i can promise you, you won't pull an esther.

how can you preach that shifting is unlimited and tell me in the same breath that you will be an adult in a child's body? and that it's impossible for you to be a child in the FUCKING MULTIVERSE/S YOU DENSE FUCK.

how you can be immortal fucking IMMORTAL but woah buddy hold your horses you can't be a child it's a crime in this county to be a child 😇

and also, not everyone is shifting to date if that's your concern, GENUINELY not everyone is shifting to date, tons literally just wanna live for themselves and tons as well have lost their childhood due to plenty of reasons and are simply shifting to relive them or live better one/s, and IF for whatever reason they happen to date someone THEIR AGE you shut your damn mouth.

how is it fine for a minor to age themselves up but no no no god how fucking horrible and awful what an atrocity that an adult is shifting to be a child. OH HOW HORRIFIC HOW COULD THEY EVER DO THAT AS IF IT'S NOT THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE TO MISS YOUR CHILDHOOD OR MOURN IT.

stop treating this reality as 'the universe's calling', it's just a reality UNLESS you decide that it means more to YOU. either way, don't shove it down people's throats that this is the only belief and the only correct one. your cr is not any more real than any reality.

y'all are insufferable for constantly shaming people for normal fucking things just because you are too afraid to open yourself up for how unlimited shifting is.

live. please, i beg you to just LIVE and let people fucking live.

once you find out about shifting, it’s set in stone. you’re going to shift no matter what and it’s going to be great.

I think we, as a shifting community, get so caught up in shifting to our desired realities that we start to forget to take breaks at times. Forget to pause and look after ourselves even if we are in our original reality where we wish we were somewhere else.

I think we need to remember to look after ourselves like we would to our desired reality self. Yes, you can not want to be here. Yes, you can be desperate to shift and see the people in your desired reality, but there is also THIS reality self that still needs you.

You still need you in your original reality at the moment. Never give up on shifting, but remember your original reality self STILL needs YOU.

list of mundane things that feel like ancient human rituals

cleaning or wipe your bare feet

breaking off a piece of bread and handing it to someone

putting the weight of a basket on your hip or head

eating nuts or berries while hunched over close to the ground

seeing something startling just out of your line of sight and very quickly stepping or leaping on to a larger object to get a better view

cupping your hands into running water to wash your face

the unanimous protection of a baby or child in a public space where women are present

when an elderly woman laughs and grips your forearm tightly

You being alive is enough reason for you to be worthy of shifting realities.

Can we bring back love poems and love letters, please? What's wrong with that? I feel like people should bring in that effort to write a poem or a love letter to people who they like, whether it's a platonic, familiar, or romantic like or even one to yourself! If that makes me a hopeless romantic, then so be it, I'm PROUD of it! It doesn't matter how simple or if it seems stupid to you. They will appreciate the effort regardless.

i've decided that vocal stims can also be a sign that a deity is present

i just broke out into song and thought to myself, Lord Tithonus :> 🪲💕

Even if you can’t hear your deities, they hear you

Even if you can’t see your deities, they see you

Even if you can’t feel your deities, they’re there and they love you

Remember,

You are a practicing pagan. You don't have to do spell work everyday. You don't have to talk to your deities everyday. You don't have to spend every waking second focusing on your practice to be a valid pagan.

Your valid. No matter how often you're able to work with your deities. No matter how often you do spell work. No matter if you dedicate little or big things to your practice.

You make an effort once in awhile and thats more than enough. Save your spoons, it's ok.

So when you're about to shift, I love that feeling of not being in your reality and that pull you feel. So, for context last night, I finished my second script, spoke out loud some affirmations and then I played a video on YouTube called "SHIFT EASIER WITH THIS| 3 hours + Affirmations for Reality shifting" by Alunir Meditations. I did, and I felt like my environment was changing, like someone just put me in the air, and I was trying to pull me forward. I was slightly panicking because I've never felt that before, but can I say right now I LOVE that feeling! That feeling of being pulled and feeling like you're not exactly in your original reality. I almost shifted, and I'm so happy about it! I almost did! I fully recommend that YouTube video to listen to throughout the day or at night for shifting!

AFFIRMATIONS FOR YOUR DESIRED REALITY:

"I can shift"

"Shifting is easy for me"

"I am a master shifter"

"I have decided to shift to (Desired Reality name) Desired Reality"

"I deserve to shift"

"Shifting found me for a reason"

"No matter what I see, think, hear, or feel, I am in my Desired Reality"

"I am (desired reality first and last name)"

"I am (your age in your desired reality) years old"

"I am (s/o love interest, sibling's name sister/brother/sibling, desired reality friend's name friend)"

"I am confident and powerful enough to shift"

(By the way, you DON'T need affirmations to shift. You CAN shift without them, but some do find them helpful.)

WAYS TO FEEL CONNECTED TO YOUR DESIRED REALITY:

1. Try to dress like your desired reality self (through clothing, make-up, hair, ect. If you can't for whatever reason, then wear something that your desired reality self would wear on a lazy day.)

2. Daydream about being in your desired reality, and if you have scripted specific scenes to happen, daydream you are in your desired reality, and that's happening.

3. Have a book that is filled with quotes, poems, drawings, and letters that are dedicated to your desired reality s/o, friends or family members, and/or dedicate it to write everything that the people who are important to you in your desired reality like and dislike, things you've observed about them.

4. Daydream about watching a movie or show with your s/o, friends, and family members while cuddling with them (platonically or romantically) while in your original reality.

5. Listen to music that reminds you of your desired reality, friends, family, s/o.

That's all I can think of for now, but now it's time for you to GO SHIFT!

you have no idea how much comfort i get from shifting community on tumblr, it’s literally like we are one huge family, we are supporting each other, giving tips, etc. i love you all soooo much i wouldn’t be here without you 🫶🫶🫶

we will shift! i know that!

I don't worship Ares, but I've always imagined he would be like this.

Everyone says Ares feels like protests and Anger

And he does but he also feels like running to your big brother for help,

Crying into the chest of a man who won’t hurt you,

Someone teaching you how to throw a punch, with no judgement

Someone picking you up when you fall and scrape your self up

He feels like tattoos of a woman with snakes for hair to remind yourself you can’t be broken

He feels like someone finally recognizing the anger and rage inside you with honor and acceptance instead of demanding peace and forgiveness

Yes girls and boys Ares is big and scary and in the spirit of rebellion but he’s also a safe place to run don’t forget that 💕

It's okay for you not to script how you and your s/o end up dating. It's okay not to script how a battle happens. It's OKAY if you want to be surprised and not know how those things happen in your desired reality, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. But it's also OKAY if you script every detail of what happens in your Desired Reality. No one can stop you from doing either of those things. It's YOUR desire reality, no one else's.

So for two to three days I've been not able to give incense offerings or light their candles to the deities who I have alters for because I've been using a gas lighter and it's empty now and I have a fear of using matches. So, in return, I've done a drawing/prayer offering on a piece of paper that has taken these days to do one individually for them all. While this has been happening, I've been worried that they are disappointed in me or upset, but then I had to remind myself, and i'm still reminding myself that they know we're human. They know we're doing our best. They know we can't do everything. They i have assumed have figured out that I have an addiction to my phone and have a huge trouble using it for less than 10 hours. Humans make mistakes, humans can't do everything, humans can only do what we can, they know we're trying our best, and that we can and will try to make it up to them later about it.

A lesson taught to me by Óðinn: “No one else can see the world through your eyes, so see as much as your eyes allow, and think as uniquely as you can.”

Zeus and Hera devotees who feel intimidated by them

Poseidon devotees who live far from the sea

Demeter devotees who live in the city

Hades and Persephone devotees who fear death

Dionysus devotees who are perplexed by madness

Aphrodite devotees who struggle to love themselves

Apollo devotees who struggle with inspiration

Artemis devotees who are saddened by animal death

Ares devotees who are too tired to keep fighting

Athena devotees who are easily manipulated

Hestia devotees with unstable home lives

Hermes devotees who get anxious over new things

Every one of you is so valid and so loved by your gods. They love you, and they want you to know it.

It's okay for your desired reality s/o or family to change! It's okay for you to change your mind and decide you want a different person to be your family. It's okay for you to decide to change who your s/o is! There is NOTHING wrong with that! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. It's normal to change our minds. We shouldn't have to feel guilty for it like we're 'cheating' on our s/o or family because we're not! We are just changing it to what s/o or family we now have decided we want in our desired reality at the moment.

Writing for your deities is such a liberation. It's a way to pour out your feelings, to write them down not only for your deities to see, but also for you to better understand. It doesn’t matter if you see yourself as a "good writer", or a "bad writer". Prayer and poetry are always magnificent when written in honor of what you love, and what you believe in. Sure, the prayers you write may not hold as much meaning if shown to others, but that is precisely the beauty of it. Something that is written from you to the Gods is absolutely sacred.

That's so true! You can be in a desired reality where it isn't perfect, where you aren't perfect. You can just be, just be how you are now just in another reality, and that's perfectly okay!

It's okay for your DR to still be of human experience. It's okay to WANT to feel human in your DR.

You don't have to script that you always smell nice, never have acne, and your clothes always fit right. You are allowed to live in an average house and drive an average car that needs regular maintenance. It's okay if you get the wrong coffee order sometimes, or if you're a few minutes late for work. It's okay to have hair that gets greasy after a few days and to have to shave your armpits on a regular basis.

Some of these little things, these minor inconveniences, are simply a part of being human.

And what a beautiful thing to be ❤️
