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.
Objects Sometimes Seem Alive
Amanda
Grove City, Ohio, USA
I'm 16, and last year my best friend had slept over one night.
It was pretty late at night when we went to bed; she slept on
the floor in my bedroom, and I slept in my bed. Before she went
to sleep, my friend took the elastic out of her hair, and set it on
my bureau. Before shutting off the light, I noticed the elastic
move back and forth once, while I was talking to her. The elastic
wasn't coiled... it just kinda rocked back and forth once... I got
so freaked out. I was scared, yet amazed at what I saw. I couldn't
stop talking about it. It was getting late, though, so we finally
got to bed. During the middle of the night, my friend woke up
and found the light on in my room. And when I woke up the next
morning, I noticed it was on. I clearly remember turning the light
off before going to bed, and so did she... so then I was really
freaked out. But it was kinda cool!! I told my dad the next
morning about my light turning on... and he didn't believe me,
and was making jokes about it!
No Such Bookstore/Coins Appear
Catherine
Washington D.C.
In 1995 I was invited to give a reading in Athens, Georgia,
sponsored by the University of Georgia and the Old Black Dog
bookstore. The day before I thought
it would be fun to visit the sponsoring bookstore -- it was
well known for its good selection of literary titles. I looked in
the Yellow Pages under "Book Stores" and it wasn't there!
(And little Athens, Georgia doesn't have all that many book
stores.) I looked three times, I just couldn't believe it.
When I didn't see anything in the Yellow Pages, I called 411
and the operator told me there was no such book store in
Athens Georgia. And since I just couldn't believe it, I had her
check again. The whole thing was so bizarre. In retrospect,
though, I have to say something felt strange; it's hard to
describe.
Anyway, the next day at the reading I met the bookstore's
owner and I said, oh, you know what, I couldn't find you in the
Yellow Pages. "That's strange", she answered. "Of course
we're there; we've always been listed there". I went back to
my hotel room and I looked, and there it was listed in the
Yellow Pages, plain as day. So the next morning I visited the
bookstore, and perusing all around, it occurred to me to pick
up a book on prostate cancer treatment for my dad. As I
was bringing it up to the register, the head of the faculty
department who had sponsored my reading, but not attended,
was there. The owner introduced us. He saw the book I'd
picked out -- it turned out he was battling prostate cancer
and was very happy to know about it. So it just seemed it was
all meant to be.
In July of 1998 I was in Marfa, Texas where on two different
nights I saw the "Marfa Lights". They are off in the distance,
and they look like airplanes, except that they move much
faster and blink on and off. Sometimes they seemed to sort
of float straight up or down. Others run along the ground
like car lights -- but they're not like car lights exactly, either.
I saw some run left, then right, very fast -- much faster than
a car at a distance could go. One turned red, then green,
then suddenly floated straight up and blinked off. They are quite
remarkable to see (the funny thing was, some guy who'd
pulled up in a Winnebago was standing on top of a picnic table
pointing at the lights and shouting "Oh my God! Oh my God!")
On two occasions there, once as I was visiting to view the lights
(there's a viewing area off the highway), and another time in
the nearby town of Fort Davis, when I opened the door of my
car, there were several quarters on the ground. I was just
really surprised to be finding so many large coins, right there
by my foot, two days in a row.
Penny stuff: I am always finding pennies. I get into a cab, on
the floor is a penny. I come up to a crosswalk, there's a penny.
Do people really drop so many pennies? It's kind of funny.
I always pick them up, for luck.
And by the way, as for socks in the dryer, I think they run off
with my ballpoint pens.
Transported to Safer Waters
Ram
Winnipeg, MB, Canada
One of the biggest reality shifts that I recall experiencing happened
around the time I was three years old around the city called Olsztyn in
central Europe, where I was raised. I was at a riverside beach with my
family, bathing in the shallow water, when suddenly the ground under my
feet ended and I sunk to the river's bottom. It was too steep for me to
climb back. I felt some panic at first, but then noticed that my breathing
was all right -- I didn't miss any air. The next thing I remember I was
standing back in the shallow water facing the beach. No one ever noticed I
was missing.
Collapsing Time
Emmy
Greensburg, Pennsylvania
I am a Reiki master/teacher. On Saturday, May 13th, I taught a private
lesson, level one in my home to a 19 year old boy. Normally, this lesson
lasts about 4 hours, because I spend a good deal of time sharing history
and explaining possible outcomes and answering questions. I probably
shared more with this person then I ever shared with anyone in one of my
Reiki classes before. He told me that he had an appointment with someone
at noon that day. It was 10:15 when we started. I said "Dear, you will
probably be here about 4 hours or more", so he called and cancelled his
noon appointment.
We got engrossed in the Reiki class, and when we finished I was surprised
to see it was ONLY 12:30. I KNOW I spent at least 5 HOURS with him, but
time had collapsed.
Another thing... I encouraged my friends & students a month ago to try your
experiment with finding quarters. For the last couple of days I have
wanted to read reality shifting stories at this site and couldn't get
there. Yesterday.... while getting dressed I found one quarter in my
pocket.
I knew I had to come to this site today and DID. Thanks!
Remembering A Meeting I Didn't Attend
Bonnie
Grand Rapids, Michigan
I have a complete memory of having attended a staff meeting that I was
never at. All members of the staff agree that I was not present. I worked
for a adult foster care facility, and I recall every resident discussed,
and their med changes. I even remember what people wore. Yet I wasn't
there. On the day/time of the meeting I had been grocery shopping and
running errands. This type of "memory" has occurred 4 more times.
Attracting It All
Dawn
Union Grove, Wisconsin
As I've been paying magnified attention to things the last couple of weeks,
it has amazed me at the things I've created, some almost instantaneously!
One day I went shopping, wanting to get Cheerios and turning around to see
there was a gold Cheerios box right in front of me (on the wrong -- but
right -- shelf), and wanting to get some tortilla chips and looking up and
again to find that they too were right there. I wanted a specific color
and brand of acrylic paint for a project, and found the bottles with ease
(after being told none was available). And as I had a sort of guided
meditation the other day, I saw myself in a place full of multicolored
floating spheres, kind of like bubbles but more the size of balls. After
the meditation I found I kept running into 2-D images that were similiar,
and so for fun I asked for a 3D manifestation. A little later I went to a
machine shop to pick up a part for my mate, and I looked down and there was
a piece of clear material encasing several seemingly floating silver balls.
I almost paid no attention, but got a nudge and then had to grin. But for
fun again I said, "Okay, but how about some 3D "floating balls" with
color?" Well, I ran into bubbles, children blowing bubbles that gleamed
with swirls of color, and I thought it was funny that their mom had about
ten more bottles of bubbles with her! Later, as my son drifted off in my
arms I clicked on the television to see, you guessed it, flaoting colored
balls. But I grinned and said "Universe, I asked for 3D!" to which I got a
visual of my walk through the grocery store earlier and my son pointing
eagerly, almost desperately, at a huge cage full of mulitcolored bouncy
balls! I'd missed that one at the time, but the Universe HAD delivered!
The next day, as I laid with my son to get him to take a nap, I went back
to the floating balls in my mind and this time "picked" them, like ripe
cherries or apples. And as I did so, saw them linked to happy abundance,
and asked the Universe to bring me a physial reflection, a manifestation.
Well.. my mate came in that afternoon to tell me our strawberry patch had
gone crazy - there were tons of strawberries where the day before there
hadn't seemed to have been any! I've been picking and canning preserves and
baking up a storm ever since (about 12 gallons of strawberries later), and
we're not done yet - there's more to be picked! All this from a patch that
we expected to be somewhat dormant this year.
Not only is this a fun game, but the more I play like this, the more it
sinks in that I attract it ALL. At first this was a little overwhelming - I
used it as an excuse to beat myself up (as in "Well, you attracted it,
can't blame anyone else..."). But as I see myself shift my wanting, and
thereby my manifestations, in these games, it is getting easier to do it
with other things. I had run into a rude salesperson at the machine shop I
spoke of before, so this time I pre-paved and asked for a nice fellow, even
a cheery one. And I got it! He even let me take a part home without paying
just to check if the size was right! And it goes further - I am thinking a
good thought, that feels wonderful, and I ask for more like it, even better
thoughts, and I find I am "hit" throughout the day with expanding, joyful
thoughts.
