The hundreds of first-hand accounts of reality shifts (aka:
mind-matter interaction MMI, quantum jumping, glitches in the Matrix) on
this and the following pages have been collected and shared through Cynthia
Sue Larson's RealityShifters since 1999. Special issues focusing on
particular types of reality shifts (such as: the Dead seen Alive Again,
Seeing Loved Ones Before They Arrive, Invisibility, Walking through Walls,
etc.) can be found by browsing through the RealityShifters
archives and subscribing to the (free) monthly ezine. Hundreds of stories
are reported here in this "Your RealityShifter Stories" section of this web
site, and the phenomenon is documented in the best-selling book, Reality Shifts: When Consciousness Changes the
Physical World.
My Friend's Brother is Alive Again
Amy
Redwing, Minnesota, USA
I'm absolutely baffled. I started reading the Reality Shift stories, and
told myself to be on the lookout for such things in my own life. I didn't
have long to wait. The mother of this girl I'd gone to school with died
about two weeks ago; listed as surviving was this girl's brother. The thing
is, I KNOW I read HIS obituary about ten years ago. I know I did, because
he was developmentally disabled and had a heart condition. Of course, when
I looked in the newspaper archives, his obituary was gone.
Note from Cynthia: Thanks so much for sharing your experience
hearing that the previously-reported-dead brother of the girl you went to
school is alive again. This is an excellent case of a highly memorable
person having been reported dead, since I take it you recall reading
details about him and the challenges in his life in his obituary. The times
I've witnessed such an "alive again" reality shift, newspaper archives no
longer showed the obituary. Sometimes, those I see alive again I remember
thinking and feeling, "I wish they hadn't died!"... and I suspect such
wishes often shift reality.
Shaking Earth
Kris
Santa Clara, California, USA
I had an interesting reality shift the other day--it was very early in the
morning. All of a sudden, I woke up from my sleep, because I could hear the
entire building shaking, as if we were having a huge earthquake. The noise
was so loud, and my entire body was shaking. I ran outside, because I
thought the building was going to fall down on me. My heart was beating so
fast I thought I was going to have a heart attack. I got out onto my patio
to see that none of my bird feeders or garden ornaments were shaking. I
could still hear the noise, and my body could still feel the earthquake,
and I couldn't get my heart to calm down! I thought, "This is crazy, maybe
a spirit from Japan is trying to let me empathize with their last moments
in the earthquake, what else could it be?" I wasn't dreaming--I was wide
awake the whole time! it was like I was in two realities at once--the
earthquake one and the California that wasn't having an earthquake! Then,
two days later, I sat down to read Carlos Casteneda's "The Teachings of Don
Juan" and I was so wrapped up in it I finished it in one day--but the
interesting part was when he said Mescalito, the spirit of the Peyote
plant, made him feel like there was a huge earthquake taking place, the
entire ground was rumbling--this was one way the spirit communicated with
him. So then I was wondering if maybe I had some sort of contact with
Mescalito, because he knew I was about to read about him--who knows! I'm
getting better at enjoying the mystery though :)
Note from Cynthia: Thanks so much for sharing this reality shift
story! Dreams sometimes afford us the possibility of accessing ideas and
information directly, without the usual filters we have operating during
ordinary consciousness, and free of the usual restrictions of being just in
this one time and this one space. Daydreams can be every bit as powerful as
dreams... that is, when we can be in two realities at the same time. I love
the way you were able to find a possible explanation for the mysterious
shaking experience you felt in the book you were reading, noting how
sometimes we can recognize a given spirit by their unique fingerprint of
energy.
Traffic Accident Vanishes
Leslee
Raleigh, North Carolina, USA
My reality shift was just before Obama came in office. I was leaving work
one day, when I looked down the street and saw there had been an bad
accident a block down. I needed to turn the other way, so I was looking
both ways. The accident had been a bad one, and the police were not there
yet! I remember looking down at two cars in the center lane crunched
together. It is a four lane with a turning center lane and they must have
both gotten in the center to turn at the same time. So they were facing
each other. I am an Artist and draftsman for a civil engineering firm. And
I am dyslexic, so I look at all most everything as a picture, including
words.
I looked back to where I had just seen the accident, and it was gone. I had
just looked one way, and then the other all of a second--no way could they
have moved that fast! My next thought was that this was a reality shift,
and that Obama would be in office. And that thought was a surprise as well,
but I felt good the rest of the day... and forgot all about it. I remember
asking for a sign that things would be getting better. I guess that was my
sign. I don't know why I felt that Obama would be president I just did. I
remember thinking maybe in the other dimension were the cars were, maybe he
would not be. I have no idea if that is how it works, that was just a
thought. :) I do think we may shift so smoothly most of the time we don't
notice. I think reality shifts happen a lot, but people just think they had
to be mistaken.
Note from Cynthia: What an amazing experience, to witness the
scene of a bad accident on the street one moment, and the next to see no
trace of it! How beautiful to look at most everything as a picture,
including words! And what an amazing sign to receive in response to your
request for one... two crunched-together cars in the middle of an
intersection suddenly cleared away. I do believe a lot more people see such
reality shifts on a regular basis than actually report them; these kinds of
experiences don't fall into clear-cut mental categories for most people who
haven't heard much about reality shifts. I find your state of mind
interesting after this reality shift, that you were left with a good
feeling the rest of the day, and also a certainty that Obama would be in
office.
