what is astral projection and how is it connected to shifting? (sourced information)
astral projection
noun
a supernatural phenomenon in which a person’s astral body is said to separate from the physical body and travel to or in a different plane of existence. (dictionary.com)
The term was first recorded between 1885 and 1890.
"The idea comes from a 19th century mystical system called theosophy which claims that we have seven bodies from the lowest physical to the highest spiritual and mental bodies," Dr Susan Blackmore told HowStuffWorks during an interview. (Astral projection: Facts and theories, Callum McKelvie, Benjamin Radford, February 25, 2022)
According to Wikipedia, astral projection takes up some type of form in the following religions: Kemetism (Ancient Egyptian), Animism/Shamanism (Amazon, Inuit), Hinduism, Shinto (Japanse), Taoism (Taoist), Judaism, Christianity, and Western esotericism.
The idea of astral travel is ancient and occurs in multiple cultures. The term "astral projection" was coined and promoted by 19th-century Theosophists. It is sometimes associated with dreams and forms of meditation. (Astral Projection, Wikipedia)
"what is western esotericism?" (can skip)
Western esotericism is used as an umbrella term for a wide variety of historical traditions that were traditionally neglected in academic research but have been moved to the foreground in recent years. These include “gnostic,” Hermetic, or theurgical currents in late antiquity, the so-called “occult sciences” (astrology, alchemy, magic), Jewish and Christian kabbalah1, theosophy, Rosicrucianism2, illuminism3, occultism4, spiritualism5, and related trends in modern and contemporary culture such as new age and occulture. (University of Amsterdam)
1 a form of Jewish mysticism that focuses on understanding the hidden, secret knowledge and meaning within Jewish tests and practices2 the belief that its members possess secret wisdom that was handed down to them from ancient times. 3 belief in or claim to a personal enlightenment not accessible to humankind in general 4 the study and pursuit of hidden knowledge, often aimed at achieving spiritual insight or personal power 5 a system of belief or religious practice based on supposed communication with the spirits of the dead, especially through mediums
"what is theosophy?"
theosophy, occult movement originating in the 19th century with roots that can be traced to ancient Gnosticism and Neoplatonism. The term theosophy, derived from the Greek theos (“god”) and sophia (“wisdom”), is generally understood to mean “divine wisdom.” Theosophical writers hold that there is a deeper spiritual reality and that direct contact with that reality can be established through intuition, meditation, revelation, or some other state transcending normal human consciousness. (theosophy, editors of Encyclopedia of Britannica, J. Gordan Melton, May 9, 2025)
In esotericism, astral projection (also known as astral travel, soul journey, soul wandering, spiritual journey, spiritual travel) is an intentional out-of-body experience (OBE) in which a subtle body, known as the astral body or body of light through which consciousness functions separately from the physical body, travels throughout the astral plane. (Astral Projection, Wikipedia)
Most people see astral projection as a method to shift, there are countless posts about it on forums, some I will list below if you would like to read for yourself.

There isn't much talk about astral projection, but it is the sister of shifting and can be used as a method of shifting. I've heard talk of waiting rooms, and astral projection can be used as a waiting room as well.
There are so many possibilities regarding shifting because shifting is limitless. Recently I've had an out of body experience right after shifting/manifesting, which I now believe to have been astral projection.
Update: I have learned something new, astral projection is when, "...your consciousness fully leaves your body and floats around this reality." (@callsigndio , commented).
So what I experiences was likely the void state, which I will be doing more research on tomorrow!
when a shifter with health anxiety gets to the safety part of their script...

Blackbird - 4/11/25 My nonna loved the Beatles, recently I've come across some of their song for a school project and Blackbird is my favorite. When I heard it for the first time, I felt like I'd heard it before, but of course I had no memory of ever hearing it until that moment. I feel connected to it somehow and when I listen to it, I think of my s/o in my dr(s). I have the same s/o or rather I have the same fc for my s/o in every reality, so it works for any dr. I think having strong reminders for the people in my other realities helps me tether them to myself.
Me, a Writer? - 4/12/25 "I tried being a writer, but... I hate what I write." -Charlotte I love this quote, theres a connection to it I just cannot place. When I leave this reality for another, I believe with all my earnest it should stay with me.
a shifting method that *always* works for me
I've tried this method 3 times. I shifted once and had intense lucid dreams twice. Every time I do it I get crazy symptoms. This is powerful, I promise.
Preparation
It helps if you already have your DR in mind, like kind of saturate your mind with it. I like to listen to music that reminds me of it, or look at the Pinterest board i have of its aesthetic, or watch cute relationship TikToks (it makes me think of my S/o OK??).
Writing a list
I also like to write down Things I'm holding on to. Like basically elements or feelings or concepts that remind me of my DR and I'm holding on to them in my mind to anchor me. Idk how to explain, so here's my list from last night:
Today is 4/30/2025 in my CR. I will shift to my THIDP DR in a few minutes. Here’s everything I’m holding on to:
Fresh static snow
My love for Livia
Cute WLW love in general
Being immortal
Exploring hidden places and old houses
VHS filming
Dark roads at midnight
(end)
The method (everything about this is subjective, but I'm writing down exactly what I did)
Lay down on your back and don't move at all and close your eyes.
Focus on your breathing and just think about your DR and the feeling that you've shifted.
Fall asleep.
that's literally it. lmk if u try this 🤍
HOW I SHIFTED FOR THE FIRST TIME
I'm gonna keep this short and sweet. For some context, no, this isn't literally my first time shifting (we shift all the time, remember?) as I've shifted to countless parallel realities and a couple random realities. However, this was the first time I shifted to a reality where it was supposedly fictional (MHA).
So, what did I do?
This. Exactly what I'm doing right now.
You see, every time I was going to bed or idle with my thoughts (doing chores, walking, etc), I would imagine myself writing a success story or telling a friend (luv you @vixilic) about my successful shift. I'd think about how I'd decorate it, how I'd word my sentences, the feeling I'd get from it, things like that. In the time between my last post and now, I had managed to shift by (mainly) doing that.
Before you say, "Isn't that similar to the xyz method/a combination of abc and qrs?" Congratulations! You know so much that you can actually see the different aspects of Loa/shifting being applied. I'm not gonna pretend like I invented this approach, but it is what worked for me (and perhaps for you too).
So, for those who want a coherent, step by step guide on how to do this, look below:
1. Pick a reference Pick something that you're going to base your visualisation off of. Are you going to tell a shifting friend? Your favourite blog? What about writing your own post? Don't stress, you can use more than one
2. Do the damn visualisation Everyday, imagine what it'd be like to tell your success story. What did you do during the day? How were the people in that reality like? How did it feel? Were you nervous, excited, scared? Do this when you wake up and when you're going to sleep. Bonus points for doing this at other times too.
3. Relax This doesn't have to be an instantaneous method and you may not see "results" right away. The whole reason I started doing this in the first place is because I'm pretty busy with school currently and I wanted to do something related to shifting which I didn't have to think about much. Hell, that shift happened on a night where I had no plans, I didn't "try", I just wanted to sleep 😭
Tips:
- this can be compounded with other methods if you wish: subliminals, robotic affirmations, sats, etc - don't stress if your visualisation isn't perfect, feeling is much more key here - on that note, don't try and force a "feeling" either. maybe you're overthinking it or just not in the mood, you don't have to literally feel it - go with the flow and personalise this to yourself. this is a Tumblr post, not a military boot camp - this can be applied to more than just shifting, too

Expecting To Wake Up In Your CR
Okay, granted, not everyone has this problem - but a lot of people carry around this little assumption and expectation to wake up in their current reality again. No matter what they do. You've got your script ready. Your method is comfy and your chosen subliminal slaps. You feel ready and everything is in place. But deep down? Deep down you prepare yourself for your alarm in the morning. Prepare yourself for the same room, the same body, the same boring reality trot. It's like saying to the universe "Surprise me!", but also slipping in a quiet note saying "Please don't. Just copy yesterday". It's not new knowledge that your subconscious is running the show behind the scenes. But what we sometimes forget is that our subconscious picks its believes from us... from our habits, patterns, the things we repeat over and over again, even the ones we are not fully aware of. And since most of us are raised in a world that values logic, linear thinking, the "you only live once" mentality, it's no surprise some of us struggle with seeing any other reality as "just as real". Not your fault, it's just conditioning doing its work. Shifting goes basically against everything you have been taught to expect, so it can feel hard to rewire that believe on the go. You are a bit like a Roomba - just doing your little routines, bumping into some unexpected furniture on your usual way, programmed by years and years of subconscious patterns and habits. Cute, but kinda confused a lot. Doesn't mean you are broken, just shows you are human. What you can do is trying to catch that thought, the expectation of waking up here, before it starts to settle in again. Don't just say "I hope I shift". Hope is passive. Try something like: "I believe it's possible to shift" "I expect to shift" "My CR isn't the default. My DR can be the default too." You subconscious learns best from repetition, dominant believes and a sense of familiarity. So start feeding it those things, instead of doubt disguised as fickle believe. Once you start treating your DR as absolutely inevitable, it becomes harder for your brain to argue with that over time. You're not failing, just learning. And every single time you turn those pesky little thoughts in more productive ones, you are rewiring your believes. That's not small, that is huge! That is taking your power back from just letting things happen. You are basically standing in the doorway to your DR, you just need to find your way to step into it.
stop treating shifting as this huge great freaky thing.
it’s NORMAL. you’ve been doing this shit for years by now, even right after you were born.
it should be something casual to you, not some thing you force and obsess over.
decide where you want to go and let it come to you naturally.
remember that it’s something so damn normal, you just forgot about it for a while, but now you remembered and that’s what matters.
SEMANTICS AND SHIFTING
Lately, I've been seeing a couple posts of people redefining and reworking their understanding of common shifting terms like cr, dr, etc. It interests me on how the language of shifting has begun to "shift" (no pun intended 😭) as the collective understanding of the practice does as well.
Back during the time of peak shifttok, many of these words were used in its most literal sense: it was called CR because it was the reality you reside in; you called it a DR because it's the reality you desired to "go" to. Most people's understanding of shifting were similarly literal (like how you had to have a script or do xyz in order to shift), so the fact that the words we used to describe it were "shallow" reflected that.
However, we've long passed such beliefs, so I find it interesting how our language is adapting to that evolution. For instance, this post by my moot @jealousmartini and subsequent reblogs are noteworthy because of the nuance and exploration we could have. What's stopping us from calling a "dr" our "cr"? Who told us that these words have a degree of separation? Why do we call it a "shift"?
As I see it, these terms are like training wheels. Something to help us usher in understanding and confidence when it comes to riding our metaphorical bikes. Of course, accidents happen. Maybe you fell off the bike because the training wheels were ill fitted; scraped your knee and had to sit out for a while. Maybe you got another set of training wheels, hoping that it may the one that will make you ride a bike. Maybe you've realised that you no longer need them at all. In any case, it's natural to outgrow the need for such terms, and look for others instead.

i got asked for affirmations that guarantee results in your manifestations after posting this in-depth post on why sometimes your persistence seems faulty or glitchy. low&behold :
it's already done.
this is already mine.
this is my baseline.
this is my normal.
i don't need to make it happen. it's already happening.
i'm not waiting for this. i'm in it.
i don't have to convince myself. this is already true.
nothing needs to change. i already have it.
this is already locked in.
it's not arriving. it's here.
i don't need proof. i am the proof.
i don't need to do more. it's already done.
this is where i live now.
this is my current state.
i already shifted.
i have everything i desire.
nothing to chase. nothing to fix.
this is my reality now.
this is what i experience.
it's not coming to me. it's reflecting me.
i don't have to perform belief. i am belief.
i've already crossed the line.
this isn't a goal. it's a given.
it doesn't need to feel dramatic. it's just true.
this is just how it works for me.
i've already adjusted. now reality catches up.

"i know u better than u know yourself!" well did u know i shift realities every night..
i used to cry to God and ask what my purpose in life was
now i know my purpose in life is to explore the universe
Shifting is Real, here's why:
In 1983, astronomers and scientists (credited at the end) created a CIA document called "Analysis and Assessment of Gateway Process". They called this assessment, when done, "Gateway Experience". The common term for us is "Astral Projecting". These scientists proved astral projection to be real, how it may work, and what it is. They approved the release of this in 2003/09/10. They did not publicizes this, simply approved it for release. Now astral projection is not shifting but this document alone proved shifting is real.
How does this relate to shifting?
When you shift, you become aware of the 4D, 5D and 6D.
The 4D is space and time together.
The 5D is different timelines and universes.
The 6D is traveling across timelines and universes.
When you astral projected, you become aware of the 4D because you only exist in the 4D state. 5D and 6D because you can travel to other realms or other beings, like what Wanda would do in "The Multiverse of Madness".
However instead your astral state travelling, your awareness state, where you are pure energy and timeless, simply becomes aware of a different consciousness (your consciousness) in a different universe that's on a different timeline. It's like a computer and a hard drive scenario. Simply plug the hard drive into the computer. Give yourself an update.
Shifting is stupidly easy, it's just you're so use to physicality in this reality and the hard "Nothing except this life" was drilled into from the start you struggle. Go ahead and release yourself. Shifting is easy.
Shifting is easy. It's a simple choice you make. So make that choice. Shifting is easy.

my name is caterinà but i mostly go by lina in my cr, it's a nickname taken from my second name adelina. i am italian and romanian. i have a tiktok: adelinasavoy, where i post shifting content as well.
i am 19 in this reality, i attend university and i've been scripting/shifting for years without knowing it.
i was first introduced to shifting earlier this year, only to learn that i've been doing it for years!
this is why i believe shifting is such a natural phenomenon. we are shifting all the time without knowing it.
my DMs and inbox is always open! please feel free to write anything you want, even if it's just to say hi! as long as you're being respectful, i don't mind and i will never judge you!

kinda motivating as well, i’ve been detached from shifting for some reason, like i can’t find anything to do, i have free time but i also don’t have it 😭 please friends help me lol
having difficulty believing in shifting or LOA? this is why
did you know that our brains tend to protect us from new and unfamiliar information due to how they evolved?
this behavior stems from several biological and cognitive mechanisms, which can be explained by the following terms:
i. cognitive ease & the cognitive miser theory:
our brains prefer to stick to familiar patterns and ideas because they require less mental effort to process. this is known as cognitive ease. when something is easy to understand or familiar, it feels more comfortable and trustworthy. this is also something that helps us conserve mental energy, which was vital for survival in ancestral environments.
psychologists also describe humans as "cognitive misers" meaning that we often take shortcuts and avoid using unnecessary cognitive effort unless it's absolutely necessary. that's why learning or accepting new ideas can feel tiring or even uncomfortable because it forces the brain to work harder and reorganize familiar frameworks.
so when you're introduced to something completely new, like the concept of shifting realities, your brain might try very hard to resist it. not because it's fake, but because it's so unfamiliar that it challenges your deeply imbedded mental patterns. this can feel like confusion, skepticism or denial as you often see w/ anti-shifters.
ii. identity protection cognition:
another important mechanism is called identity-protective cognition. when new information threatens a belief tied to your worldview or sense of self, the brain reacts defensively. so even if the information isn't necessarily dangerous, it can still trigger emotional discomfort because it challenges who you think you are and what you believe is possible.
this is the reason why some people react strongly or dismissively when they first hear about shifting. if an idea challenges something you deeply believe to be true, people might even reject it—even if there's evidence, because our emotional reaction often matters more than if the information is factual or not.
evolutionary roots:
these tendencies of ours are rooted in evolutionary psychology. avoiding unfamiliar things often meant avoiding danger for our ancestors. familiar environments and behaviors felt safe, while uncertain situations could be risky. as a result, our brains are wired to prefer what's known and predictable.
this is also why habitual thought patterns become so deeply engrained, because they were once crucial for survival. changing them can therefore take a lot of effort and time because it requires rewiring our neural pathways, which the brain doesn't do lightly.
so whenever you find yourself doubting shifting or feeling overwhelmed by the thought of it, remember that it's just your brain doing what it evolved to do, which is keeping you alive and safe!

any gueses?
last night, after i shifted to another reality slightly different than my cr, i was a bit afraid to try anything or go back to sleep, so i watch a bit of monster high and then i felt a bit better.
so, i laid down again, curled up slightly, and i closed by eyes, a few second later, i felt weird, my entire body was numb. i didn't feel like a person.
the best way i can describe feeling what i was feeling is that i felt like a soul floating above a body, my body. if i reached out i could connect myself back to my body and move it.
i've felt numb–but i've never felt numb like this. it was so surreal. it was like i wasn't even there? like my body was paralyzed, but i was aware of it, if that makes sense? my eyes were closed and i don't remember seeing anything.
has anyone else ever felt this before? if so, can you please tell me what it was?
has anyone else seen the reddit post from the person who shifted here from a much worse parallel reality? cuz ive been thinking abt it for days
(trigger warning for some slight ableism in the 4th pic, but i just thought it was interesting)
Even if you doubt it now, you will shift. Don't give up. Please don't let the bad parts of this world make you give up. It's not impossible. It's not out of reach. You are so, so close.
i need you to know i just shifted
theres no calm way to explain this.
it freaked me out.
as soon as i realized.
i wasn't excited i was fucking terrified.
now, the thing is, i saw this video on youtube, and there was this one method i thought i would try out.
basically, all i did was tell myself i was going to shift to a reality just like my current one, only my curtains are going to be pink.
i was in and out of sleep or whatever (i don't remember) but there was a flash of light and then my eyes shot open because a siren passed by me. they were police sirens–now this shit pulled me out of whatever dream/sleep thing was going on and i was pissed, but then i glanced at my bookshelves.
of course, first i looked at my curtains–were they pink? no, but when my eyes landed on my bookshelves (for reference i have 3 directly at the foot of my bed, with a little walk space in the middle.
there was something off, first i thought the last one look way skinnier than the first two, so that was freaking me out, i was trying to calm myself down (it took a while). i wear glasses, so looking at the shelves, i thought it was because it was dark and i couldn't see that they were wobbly, like, the corners were blurry (if that makes sense).
eventually i grabbed my phone and turned on the flash to get a better look. the bookshelf looked so weird, in fact my entire room just felt off. theres a space between the shelves for aesthetic purposes, but the last one is bigger because theres an outlet there.
i stepped in between the shelves and nearly shat myself, because there was a graduation lay with money attached to it. i was sure i had spent all the money on the lay when we got it (it was only $3 but still).
this is when i knew that i wasn't here–i was there. i went to explore the rest of the house, looking for anything that looked different. there wasn't much else–just one thing, my shoes.
i have a pair of hightop converse, typically they are shoved into a little shelf beneath the television, this time they were not and placed in the little rack near the door, alright acceptable, could be mom just put them somewhere else.
but then, walking back to my room, mom dropped her phone and my heart dropped. she asked me to pick it up, so i did, she asks why it's so hot, i tell her the air is off–which is weird because only i turn it off.
i hear my brother, he's awake in his room so i ask him if he turned it off, he says no, i ask him again and to stop messing with me, seriously did he turn it off? he said no, now i'm like, wtf because i know for a fact that my mother had turned the air on and i didn't turn it off and she was asleep.
whatever, i turn it on and go to my room. i look around. no. no there's something off about this fucking room. this is not my room–i mean it is–but it's not.
alright, theres only one way to be certain, yeah? i say my safe word, though it's a phrase really.
i lay back on my bed and say it. i do not close my eyes, but the second it leave my mouth, i feel a surge of energy and then like that it's gone.
a second later a car vrooms past and i realize i hadn't heard a car pass, nor had the upstairs neighbors annoyed me with their ruckas, nor had i got a notification from my online friends, which i get nearly all night because we live in separate timezones.
so now i'm sitting there, trying to figure out if i'd heard anything other than my brother in his room before i said my safe-word/phrase. i didn't i didn't. i just didn't.
now again, you could say this was all a coincidence. but i have this thing with loud nosies. i can't stand them, they're annoying and the cars that go back and forth throughout the night/day never fail to irritate me, i've woken out of my sleep to go upstairs and bang on my neighbors door to keep it the fuck down.
i have turned off my notifications because i get irritated easily if they keep pining.
perhaps i was caught up in the moment, the thought process of "have i shifted, if i have what's different?" but i can't shake the feeling of that room, nor of the way i was awoken by the sound of a loud ass siren, only to hear nothing else after that besides my brother–then to start hearing things once again after i say my safe word/phrase.
please let me know what you think, for me, i believe i was terrified at first because my mother and my brother are people i know in this reality, the potential of seeing them in another for the first time threw me so off guard, i don't know why i didn't think they'd be there when i asked for everything to be exactly the same.
little rant
recently my mom has been asking questions about my habits, i told her i'm "experimenting" i'm not ready to tell her everything, which is what i said, but i told her the most i would say on it is i'm trying to shift my awareness to another reality. i'm not scared she's going to throw me in a psych ward, but that she'll use it against me in an argument which is what she did when i first began to really start attempting to shift without realizing it.
i'd spend my summer days in the pages of books or on my bed, eyes closed, headphones on, and daydream about life elsewhere. she once told me something along the lines of, "you live in a fantasy world," in an argument, and i stopped doing a lot of what i did even though it made me happy
how to shift whenever (from an experienced shifter)
yes. you've heard this before. yes. it's recycled. i'm not giving you new information, i'm reminding you that you already know what to do and you're just not doing it. sorry lol. drink your cold brew and listen.
you shift by assuming. that's the law. no loophole. no secret ingredient. no five-step guide with a pastel graphic. just assumption. just decision.
if you've ever cried over a fictional character.....congrats. you've already shifted. you just didn't monetise it. do it on purpose next time.
it’s not "i'm so close" or "i almost did it" or "omg did i just feel something." no. it's not a quiz. it's not a scavenger hunt. it's not a 4chan riddle. it's your reality. assume it. you assume your name. you assume gravity works. you assume you have a face.
you want to shift????? ok. then do it. now. like, actually now. while reading this. literally while scrolling. yes, even if you're in the bathroom. you're already doing it, you’re just not owning it.
stop calling it a failed attempt every time you don't get the fireworks. stop naming your moments as if they’re battlefield tombstones. you’re making a museum of "almost." just go. stop narrating it.
you don't shift because you're waiting to feel shifted. you don't shift because you’re checking every three seconds like a deranged webMD dad. stop doing that. stop redownloading "hope.mp3" and acting shocked when it skips again.
you keep thinking it's hard. it's not hard. it's just annoying. annoying to keep choosing. annoying to be delusional when your brain is feral and cynical and deeply online. do it anyway.
you don't need more subliminals. you don't need to see a crow or a number or a cloud shaped like draco malfoy. you need to assume. persist. and shut up about it.
yes, it feels like lying. but most things feel like lying. flirting, job interviews, saying "i'm fine." we're already doing it. might as well get a reality out of it.
stop hoarding techniques like they're coupons for god. stop trying to feel ready. you don't get to feel ready. you just get to decide.
no one's gonna come down and tell you "you did it right." not your tumblr mutual. not the birds. not your inner child. sorry. you decide it's done and you live from that. yes, even if mittens the cat is still there. assume anyway.
it's already done. you're not waiting. you're remembering.
you're one decision away. you always have been. assume. persist. shift. log off.
Is it exactly as you said, its just like like any other reality[like for example here] but with different people and memories and whatever floats your boat
So yea tdlr: its real 100% because it is real life
thank you! that's what i imagine and sometimes, when i close my eyes, i can feel my room and i feel like right outside is the hallway to my house and it's all just right there
that's why i feel like it's exactly how it is here, just there
thank you!!
question
(if you please) shifters that have fully shifted, what was it like? i think my perception of what it's going to be like might be blocking me (idk) i imagine it's what it feels like now, only with separate people and separate memories (if that makes any sense), but if you please, could you try describing it in detail?
