reality shift (ree al' i tee shift),
n.1. the manifestation of objects appearing, disappearing,
transforming and transporting. 2. changes in the way we experience
time. 3. any sudden, abrupt alteration of physical reality with no
apparent physical cause. 4. the source of synchronicity.
Reality shift is a relatively new term to
describe an ancient phenomenon. Shifts in reality have long been relied
upon by those who practice magic, work as shamanic or energy healers, or
believe in the transformative powers of prayer... and are now becoming
known to the general public as a very real phenomenon that affects us all.
"There are two ways to
live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as though everything is a miracle."

Einstein
Reality shifts are happening around us all the time, even
though we usually don't notice them occurring. By intending to witness
reality shifts and paying even more attention to your physical surroundings
than usual, you will increase your chances of seeing reality shifts occur
right in front of you.
When I first began experiencing numerous reality shifts in 1994, I thought
that my mind was playing tricks on me, and that if I simply paid a bit more
attention to things around me then I'd stop thinking that things were
appearing, disappearing, transforming and transporting around me.
I was amazed to discover that the opposite was true... the more closely I
paid attention to my environment, the more likely I was to see that things
were very often not at all the way I know they had been. For example, a
half-eaten loaf of bread became a whole loaf again as it sat on my kitchen
counter and I slept one night. I have searched the entire house for my
daughter's favorite shoes, only to give up... and a few days later find her
shoes in a place she would never normally put them... on top of her
bed!
I've seen truly spectacular reality shifts when I was feeling the most
doubt about them existing. I saw a very old-looking sign appear in the
middle of my daily walking path the day after I'd started writing my first
article about reality shifts and was feeling doubt that this phenomenon
could be real. The sign looked to be at least months and possibly years
old, and the connected garbage can showed signs of the weed-whacking that
had happened there just the day before. I had seen the gardeners working
there in the park... and I had also seen they were working in a clear field
that had no sign and garbage can.
Have you witnessed reality shifts in your life... perhaps
not knowing how to store the memory or how to discuss it with other people?
If you answer "yes" to any of the following questions, you may have
witnessed reality shifts:
* Do you end up with single socks when you
know you put pairs of socks into your load of laundry?
* Have you
found your keys or wallet some place other than where you know you put them
just a few minutes earlier?
* Have you thought of someone or
something and moments later been startled when they appeared unexpectedly?
* Have you noticed time behave in other than a regular, linear
forward motion?
* Do traffic lights turn green and traffic jams
clear up just when you most need them to?
