Shifting Symptoms and Why They Occur

Damn I had this in my drafts since November 23, 2021 so I dont much from this post tbh. If anything I blame past me

Please bare in mind that all this info may not be 100% accurate!

These are compiled from my years of researching spirit stuff!!

I'll name the symptoms and put in brackets which topic I learnt it from.

Weightlessness — A.P. (and sleep state?)

Don't be alarmed if this happens, I'm sure it'll happen regardless. I'm pretty sure this is just when you're very relaxed.

I've partly astral projected at least twice and fully left my body at least 3 times but all of them have been very brief. And whenever I have ever astral projected, it always felt like my body was very light or weightless.

For sleep state, the body tends to feel numb or have less sensations when slipping into sleep. Likely to make you feel lighter as you focus less on physical sensations.

I would guess that this weightless, first of all is because your consciousness barely has any weight or matter.

Feeling heavy — L.D./ A.P./ Sleep state

Usually I experience this when I'm really relaxed or when my body is asleep while my mind is very awake and extra alert. It seems like this occurs for me when I focus on my physical body rather than slipping into sleep or focusing on the world around me.

Tingling sensations —Kundalini/ energy stuff

Okay I've seen this symptom too often that I had to write this.

You're just picking up/ sensing energy.

An example of feeling energy is when you feel a shiver up your spine. Or you can currently try to clap your hands for at least 10 - 20 seconds when it's all buzzy. Hold an invisible ball with your hands then imagine static forming in between your hands. It's all tingly, that's just energy.

It may not seem special but when you think about it, we literally regenerate without doing anything but dismiss it as normal. You do know that objects and robots can't do that right? lol

Spinning — My theory

I haven't seen anything relating to this topic in the years I've researched the other topics. Although, I had angels hang out with me during my shifting session. They told me it was just the feeling of hypnotism/ in a trance (said in a positive way, nothing bad).

My own thoughts is that maybe the spinning feelings is when you're so relaxed and (getting) in tune with your subconscious.

OR

it could be that your consciousness is switching between worlds. I think that because of how we have those liquid things in our ears that let our brain/body know where is up and down. Just so we can keep our balance.

Falling — My theory/ sleep state

I'm not sure which topic covers this but I tend to feel like I fell into my body when I rest my head during a class (I finished all my work at that time). So I only assume that the sensation of falling is completely normal and that you're definitely relaxed.

____________________________________

Hearing voices/ sounds — Sleep state or A.P.

I've experienced insomnia a few times and I tend to hear voices right before I sleep then I snap awake and then nothing happens. I would say it's normal.

However, if it's in regards to your DR, then I definitely think it's a positive sign that you're getting closer to shifting!

Seeing Flashing Lights — Third eye/ Energy stuff

I'm quite concerned and unfazed when it comes to this because, I've had my third eye open for at least 10 years, whether a bit or a lot. And I can say that I ALWAYS see flashing lights and can confirm that you are on the right track but this doesn't mean this symptom would help much.

The reason im concerned is because the flashing lights can flicker so badly that I'm sure someone with epilepsy might react badly. (And it still happens when your eyes are closed so you can't really escape it)

[Personal experience] Feeling uncomfortable or stings in spine during a session — My theory

When I was trying to shift and all, I suddenly felt uncomfortable. I felt the urge to move or something. My spine was hurting a bit and it was getting unbearable. Then the angels I had nearby had suggested that I merge with my DR self. So when I did, everything instantly felt better.

I asked why that happened and they said along the lines of, "because the mind and body were rejecting each other"?

____________________________________

Tired or dizzy after session(s) — Energy stuff/ A.P.

This is mostly just because you have spent your energy focusing on shifting lol

A brief explanation, EVERYTHING is energy. Thoughts, feelings, everything you see and sense are all forms of energy. You just spent a lot of energy on imagining, just take a break, rest up.

With the astral projection side, being conscious more often than letting yourself sleep, isn't sleeping. Doesn't matter if your body is asleep, if your mind isn't, it's not sleep and it'll still show on under your eyes.

Get some rest when you know you need it.

Hypnic Jerk Twitching

This stuff terrified me because I would be tryna shift and then my arm randomly MOVES BY ITSELF, and here I thought it was possessed but nah it's probably a hypnic jerk which are sudden muscle contractions that happen involuntarily right as you're falling asleep.

It could also happen with the leg. But when I had a hypnic jerk my arm was resting on my stomach and just shot to my side SO FAST like it had a mind of its own. But nothing has happened since, so it should be fine.

Hypnic jerks are harmless, at least 70% - 80% of people experience it at least once in their life while 10% experience it daily. So it's rare to have it happen to you every day but it's likely you'll experience something like that.

It's likely going to occur due to excessive caffeine intake as well as physical/emotional stress.
