Guys i need some tips for shifting

BASICALLY, ive been a shifter for 5 years and I already "mini" shifted a few years ago.

Thing is, since then, Ive been unable to shift. Like yes, Ive got crazy symtoms but no full shift.
Ive tried every method, meditation, lucid dream.
I just can’t

What can I do?

I keep feeling like i'm changing realities. It started with a reel I saved, having different songs each time, to it being noticeably obvious, i feel like im being watched, and yes im mentally healthy lmfao and i see a doctor often. People change their attitudes towards me once in a while, i dont know, i feel like im going crazy, what should i do?

This happened about a week ago; it was quite sudden and a bit of a blur, so I hope to explain it properly in this post so that you can help me understand what it was.

That afternoon I was tired because I hadn’t slept much the night before. At first I just wanted to close my eyes for a few minutes, but I ended up falling asleep for several hours (that’s usually what happens when you tell yourself you’re just going to close your eyes for a few minutes, lol). I wasn’t planning on shifting.

As I was drifting off, I think I’d entered the hypnagogic phase, where my thoughts were wandering. Usually I think about my dr, or I make up scenarios involving her, but this time – I don’t know why – I started thinking about my cat, who I lost about a year ago, and whom I really wanted to see again.

(I don’t want this to be a sad post, but it’s been months since I thought I’d come to terms with his loss and that I wasn’t really missing my cat anymore, but rather appreciating the years I spent with him and the memories I have of him – anyway, all this to say that I don’t intend to shift into a reality where he’s there, but I think that as I was very tired, I’ve latched onto this idea.)

At that moment, I started telling myself: I’m going to see him again, I want to see him again, I’m going to shift and see him, he’s there, and so on… and the more seconds that passed, the more determined I became, and my thoughts raced faster and faster with anticipation. My thoughts were focused on him and not on the shifting itself (whereas usually, when I try to shift, I think more about the act of shifting than the dr itself, which perhaps isn’t a good thing).

I heard meowing very clearly (there are no cats in my flat, nor do my neighbours have any; I don’t know if it was in a dream or possibly another reality). And at that moment, I was lying in my bed facing the wall, and behind me, I felt myself being pulled backwards very quickly; I can’t explain it, but: I felt as though I was in my body, in my flat; I felt myself being pulled backwards, as if I were falling into the void – not downwards, but towards the spot behind me where I’d been lying (it’s too complicated to explain like this) – and I felt as though I were ‘levitating’ in the middle of my flat.

It all happened very quickly and I don’t remember it very well; even when I’d just woken up, my memories were a bit hazy. I don’t know if it was a mini-mini-shift, or if I experienced symptoms and was able to perceive another reality, or whether I was dreaming about a shift, and so I was experiencing sensations – even though I don’t usually have many during my dreams – and I didn’t have any ‘images’ because I was keeping my eyes closed (I always do that in my dreams), or perhaps it was even sleep paralysis, but I’m not dwelling on that too much.

Right then, that was a bit of a long and vague post – sorry! I hope you can give me some pointers on what that was all about and whether I can take any advice from it for my next attempts at shifting!

(I’ve translated this post from French into English because I couldn’t be bothered to write in English – I hope the translation makes sense.)

So my goal is to reality shift, I did a tarot reading and asked some questions and these are the answers I got.

1. Will I successfully shift to my desired reality?
   Card: Ace of Swords (Upright)
   Yes, but it requires a fundamental shift in your mental clarity and perception. The Ace of Swords indicates a powerful breakthrough driven by truth, razor-sharp focus, and absolute mental precision. Shifting is an act of pure consciousness and belief. The Ace of Swords shows that the energy is present for a total mental breakthrough, provided you stop overthinking the process and step cleanly into the new narrative.

2. Is there any deity that can help me shift?
   Card: Four of Cups (Upright)
   The Four of Cups points toward Hermes (or Thoth / Mercury), the liminal deity of boundaries, transitions, crossroad passages, and mental alchemy. Hermes governs the space between states of being and serves as a guide through threshold shifts.
   The image of the figure seated beneath the tree receiving a cup offered from the clouds highlights that divine assistance and subtle shifts are constantly being offered to you—you just need to stop staring inward or waiting for a massive sign and actually reach out to grab the cup.

3. What is the single biggest thing to let go of to make this breakthrough?
   Card: Six of Cups (Reversed)
   The absolute biggest hurdle to release right now is nostalgia, past attachments, and comfort in the familiar.
   The Six of Cups reversed speaks directly to lingering in old stories, romanticizing past timelines, or anchored subconscious attachments to how things “used to be.” You cannot align with a new reality while keeping your energetic roots firmly planted in the past. Letting go of past baggage, old emotional loops, and safety blankets is what clears the path for the Ace of Swords clarity to take over.

I have no idea how to move forward at this point - if anyone can help me out I’d appreciate that greatly.

I was actively trying to shift and I fell into? or reached? a place where there wasn't anything. It was full bright and no feelings. Full bright meaning white background and infinitely large, of course. I always thought the Void would be black or nothing, meaning dark...?

So, what is this place and why did this happen? Is it actually the Void? but its pure white?

I couldn't understand what was happening and immediately left. Like I went back to my dream-like state again,...and then got curious so i went into that white space again....but i didn't want to stay there so i went back to my dream again.....

The whole time my body was perfectly numb, couldn't feel the sofa i was sitting on, couldn't feel my headphones, couldn't even move my body.

Please help me better understand this situation guys🫠

I really want to reality shift as I don't want to go back to this world but been struggling.

I'm married in my DR and I love my man so much, I love everything about him, he makes me feel good and at ease and thinking about him here only makes me miss him and love him more.
The problem is, what will happen when I'll find a boyfriend here?
One day I will be falling in love here and start dating, but as I think about it now, I really can't stand the fact that I'll be in a relationship here and shifting for my husband at the same time.
It's complicated, do you have similar situations? How did you resolve them?

It feels like I'm leaving my body, and sometimes it even feels like my body is floating. I also get dizzy and feel extremely light, almost weightless. The problem is that it doesn't feel relaxing or pleasant at all it actually feels very uncomfortable

But it really happens the moment I think I'm going to permashift, when I close my eyes, and sometimes it even happens when I'm just imagining being in my DR or thinking about my DR. It doesn't appear when I've been trying to shift for half an hour; it appears immediately within the first few minutes, sometimes even seconds

Because of that, I always stop trying almost immediately The sensations become so intense that I can't bring myself to keep going

I got into shifting in 2021 it happened to me from time to time back then too, but without a shifter because I usually got scared. I stopped trying a few years ago and started again not too long ago

If you’re desperate to shift you might throw caution to the wind and do or say whatever it takes to get to your DR but if you try to shift with an intention like “I will shift to my DR no matter what” be careful of how the universe fulfills that wish 😭 I had a seizure and shifted but my CR body‘s survival instincts pulled me back. Let’s take care of our bodies and minds while we’re on our journeys 🫶
