This post will be an introduction to scripting - you can also use scripting for manifesting but this post will mainly talk about scripting from a reality shifting point of view. I will start off with some general calcifications for the people who are new to reality shifting itself.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐟𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠?

“Simply put, reality shifting is the movement of your consciousness from one reality to another (...). Think of yourself not as one physical body but as one conscious being that expands over all realities. When you shift, you tune into that consciousness in another reality.” - @astra-nomy

DR (desired reality) - The reality you want to shift to. You can have as many DRs as you want.

DR self (desired reality self) - This refers to yourself in your desired reality.

CR (current reality) or OR (original reality) - It’s the reality you’re shifting from to your DRs and back. Basically, the reality you're living in right now.

WR (waiting room) - This is a reality you can make up and use as something like a lobby where you can go to before shifting to your DRs. You don’t need a waiting room but many use it to spend some time there when they want to 'escape' their CR for a bit but also don’t want to go to their DRs.

-> ꜱᴄʀɪᴘᴛɪɴɢ

In the following paragraphs I will explain what scripting is and how to do it. I will also try to give you some ideas for scripting and answer some common questions.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐬 𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠?

If you want to shift realities you can write a script to define what you would like to experience in your DR - how you should look like, how you want things to play out or how you want the reality to look like etc. Whatever you script will happen in your DR.

𝐃𝐨 𝐈 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐀 𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭?

No, not really. Scripting is completely optional and you don’t need a script to shift. As shifting mainly operates on the bases of your subconsciousness, you don’t need to script everything because your subconsciousness already knows what you want - because it's you. It's just that scripting helps most of us with visualizing certain things, organizing our thoughts and committing to our idea of what exactly we want to experience. Reading your script before attempting to shift can also make the process of shifting easier for you.

Actually, you don’t need to keep anything in mind while scripting. There are no rules on how to do it and there are many different ways to script. Just find a way of scripting that you enjoy.

The format doesn’t matter. You can find yourself a cute notebook and use it for scripting or you can make a digital script.

You don’t need to care about your way of phrasing things. You don’t need to write from a specific perspective. You can write it as if you're creating a character or you can write it from your point of view. Also, you don’t need to write full sentences. You can just write ‘brown hair’ instead of ‘I have brown hair’ or you can just use an emoji that shows someone with brown hair - it really doesn't matter how you do it as long as YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU MEAN.

It is not always about writing, you can also use pictures to express what you mean. For example you can make a moodboard or create a file on your phone with pictures representing what you want. Or you can even make a presentation or a short video.

You don’t need to script every detail! The length of your script doesn’t matter! You could just write ‘I have brown hair.’ as the only thing to script and anything else in your DR would still include all the other things you want. I often see people who get anxious when they try to shift because they feel like they haven’t scripted enough - that is totally unreasonable! As I said before, your subconsciousness already knows what you want and making a script is not even necessary to begin with. So please be careful with getting obsessed with making your script ‘perfect’. If you can’t decide on something just leave it open instead of being unhappy with what you scripted- your subconsciousness will fill in all the gaps. Just make it enjoyable for yourself!

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐈 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞 𝐈𝐧 𝐌𝐲 𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭?

You can include anything you want! But I will give you some ideas on what to include but just know that they are not necessary.

ꜱʜɪꜰᴛɪɴɢ ᴀꜰꜰɪʀᴍᴀᴛɪᴏɴꜱ:

Here you can write down just normal shifting affirmations. You can also script how you shift like with a certain method or with a certain action like tapping your wrist free times and saying the name of your DR whatever.

ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴅʀ:

You can define how your DR looks like, what the living circumstances are, you can make up new stuff in your DR (especially if you're shifting to a series/movie). You can script that racism or homophobia and stuff like that doesn't exist there or just that everyone is being treated right. If your DR is based on a movie/series you can script that certain events don’t happen and you can make up new events/situationships. You can script certain scenarios you want to happen. Also, some people write down their first shifting moment - when and where they shift to and how they want it to play out. I also saw some people writing down stuff like ‘No one finds my behavior weird the first time a shift’ etc.

ꜱᴀꜰᴇ ᴡᴏʀᴅꜱ/ᴀᴄᴛɪᴏɴꜱ:

A safe word in shifting is a word or action or phrase you can say when you quickly want to go back to your CR or WR! It works instantly and it can be anything you want - many use something weird that you wouldn’t say normally in your daily life but something you can easily remember (something like ‘Hakuna matata’ or ‘Back to the ghetto’ lmao). If you want, you can also script that your safe words will only work when you want it to and/or you can script that you always remember your safe words.

ᴛɪᴍᴇ ʀᴀᴛɪᴏ/ᴛɪᴍᴇ ᴇQᴜɪᴠᴀʟᴇɴᴄᴇ:

Here you define how much time passes in one reality (CR/DR) when you’re in another reality. For example, you could just script that ‘1 Week in your DR equals 30 minutes in your CR’ or that ‘1 year in your DR equals 1 hour in your CR’. Also, you can script that no time passes in your CR when you're in one of your DRs. And the same goes the other way around (how much time passes in your DRs when you’re in your CR). There are some rumors going around that a huge time difference would strain your body once you come back to your CR but that doesn’t necessarily have to be the case. You could script that everytime you shift back to your CR you’re well rested and healthy - or something like that.

ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴅʀ ꜱᴇʟꜰ:

You can list personal details (name, age, birth date etc.). You can describe how you look like, what your personality is like, what kind of powers or skills you have, what kind of background you have, your life circumstances, your housing, your family etc.

ɪᴍᴍᴜɴɪᴛʏ/ꜱᴀꜰᴇᴛʏ ᴀꜰꜰɪʀᴍᴀᴛɪᴏɴ:

Really useful is also to script a certain immunity. I know that many people want to shift to certain realities that are a bit dangerous and where you have to fight and stuff so you could script something like ‘I am immune to being attacked/hurt. I am always safe and protected. I am immortal. I am immune poison or dr*gs.’ etc. I would also advise you maybe to script that you are immune to bringing trauma from your DRs to your CR and back or that your mental health stays unaffected. Also, you could think about what you would like to happen in the case of you dying in one of your DRs. I, for example, have scripted that I always wake up in my waiting room once I die in one of my DRs. It’s pretty much up to you what safety affirmation you use and it I guess it also depends on where you're shifting to.

ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀꜱ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇʟᴀᴛɪᴏɴꜱʜɪᴘꜱ:

You can make up new characters in your DR or include people from your CR (like your best friend). You can script their appearance, personality, abilities, your connections with etc. The same goes for characters that are already in your DR, you can change them completely or you can script how you are connected to them, what kind of relationship you have with them or how you get to meet them etc.

ᴍᴇᴍᴏʀɪᴇꜱ:

It could also be interesting for you to think about how you deal with your memories. I saw someone writing down that they forget their CR memories for a certain period of time to really experience life in their DR and then get their memories back at a certain time (for example after they went through the main plot). You can also script that when you’re in your DR that your CR is a distant memory but you’re aware that you need to return to your CR. Regarding your life in your CR: You could script that the memories of your DRs are stored in a library in your Waiting Room or you can script that your DR memories are just like fainted memories (like that of dreams) in your CR - so that it doesn’t affect you too much in your daily CR life. If you have romantic/close relationships with people in your DR, I would recommend to script that you don’t feel these feelings as intense or not at all when you're in your CR (so that you don’t struggle with missing them or get ‘homesick’ in your CR). Another tip from me is that if you have a waiting room, try to shift to your WR first. There you can process the experiences of your DR and try to rest for some time and mentally prepare yourself for your CR life before shifting back to your CR - because many often struggle in their daily CR life after shifting back especially if they stayed in their DR for a long period of time - and you can avoid that if you give yourself enough time in (for example) a waiting room.

ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ:

As there is no limit to what you can script you can also include magical items (magical watch/bag etc) for your DR or stuff like ‘I don’t get my period in my DR.’ to make your life more easier there.

Again, it’s your choice on how to do it. Here I’ll just list some ideas for inspiration.

notion (it’s pretty famous in the shifting community and you can create your own templates and so on)

google docs

paper notebook

canva

pinterest (for pictures and for creating pinboards)

tumblr (I like creating moodboards like this or this )

picrew (for creating characters or scripting appearances)

artbreeder (also for creating faces and for defining your looks)

powerpoint (for making a presentations)

and many more :)

𝐒𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐞

You don’t need to feel bad for what you script. It’s your choice. You can decide what you want to experience. Just keep in mind that you will really LIVE in that reality you scripted. So, don’t underestimate this and stay safe! <3

I hope this post is helpful to you guys. If you have more questions regarding scripting, I will add it to this post! - Just send me your questions. :)

would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?

For any relocated TikTok users

you can say sex and kill its fine

If you don't have a profile picture people will assume you're a bot

theres barely an algorithm, if you want to see cool shit reblog things instead of just liking them

(also look up the original post from time to time for more plays)

Spin the wheel and let it randomly assign you a gender identity.

while this is an absolutely great take on this issue, and i completely understand you frustration with the showrunners for royally screwing up our favorite character (as we probably all do on this side of the fandom), i would like to quickly remind the class of that time tom mentioned in an interview that he only had ~5% input in the series despite being an executive producer who should've had much more power (i really wish that i was able to find the picture of it that i had found as a source but i've somehow lost it in my files).

i personally cannot find it in myself to blame him for the destruction of his character because he has shown in multiple instances how much he cares about loki and his story (see his knowledge of loki in the comics as well as his understanding of norse mythology, especially compared to the rest of the cast in the thor movies alone). all of the issues that have occurred after 2013 usually can be directly connected back to the writers fundementally misunderstanding (or just not giving a fuck about) loki, or the director changing things last minute to make him look bad - as op said above about nerfing and deleting crucial scenes for his character, even since the very first movie.

as i previously said, your feelings on the matter are completely valid, and i respect your opinion. however, based on the information that i have as a fan (because we will likely never know about all of the decisions that went into this), it is unfair to be blaming tom for decisions that were originally out of his hands, or even ones that were taken away from him.

EDIT: I FOUND THE PICTURE GUYS

Any time I see someone say "Marvel knew what they were doing when they cast Tom Hiddleston" I feel a bit like...they didn't though? I think you're projecting some 4D chess grandmaster stuff onto Marvel Studios that doesn't really exist.

Tom was cast via Kenneth Branagh and yes it was PHENOMENAL casting but let's not pretend like Marvel Studios didn't spend the next near-decade and a half deleting Loki's scenes, killing him then instantly reviving him, deleting yet more of his scenes, killing him again, retconning killing him, sticking him off-screen for almost half a decade, removing yet another scene and not even compensating his fans with a DVD extra, killing him again, then suddenly remembering he's popular (again) and coming up with something to use a now-for-real-dead character as the lead but it wasn't exactly the same character (just another version of him) and now they're apparently done with him again when it's pretty obvious he'll be wheeled out of that tree at some point.

I love Loki. I love Tom's portrayal of Loki but the only people who have consistently genuinely seemed to care about the character are the fans. Because we've been given nothing but crumbs by Marvel and yet produce all this beautiful fan art, fan fic and meta. Marvel have just kinda stumbled around Loki like some perpetually confused pigeon in a hall of mirrors that keeps crashing into its own reflection shrugging "huh...what IS this? Ooh shiny!"

Knew what they were doing? More like lucked out with a very talented and charismatic actor and a dedicated fanbase that formed 2011-12 and is somehow, despite everything still here.

The pre-Christian Norse spiritual worldview is animistic, which means that it's informed by direct experiences and observations of nature, interpreted through the lens of human experience and feelings. You know how we watch snow swirl around think that it looks playful, or watch a wildfire and think that it looks angry? It involves that kind of thing.

But when most people think of pre-Christian religions, they tend to imagine later forms of Greek and Roman polytheism. The problem here is that these Greeks and Romans had begun to think of divinity in more abstract, transcendent ways, and had begun to imagine the gods as rulers of things rather than the spirits of things.

Loki isn't the lord of mischief, he's the spirit of mischief. He's in the little voice telling you make that shitpost and to stop caring about being "cringe." He's in your cat's impulse to knock something off the counter to watch it bounce or roll. Loki manifests in every accidental innuendo and hilarious typo, in every spilled cup of coffee, and every paperwork mix-up. (This is why he's a shapeshifter! He can be anything!)

So when media depicts a Loki riddled with repression and shame - say, for example, a Loki who sneers at modern media or the culture of the common folk - it's depicting a Loki who can't really Loki. That poor spirit has been bound and gagged.

Certain popular media has depicted Thor and Loki as some kinds of opposites, but when we consider the animist perspective we can see there is a serious problem with this. Loki and Thor being depicted as companions isn't some random whim; it's a reflection of the reality that thunderstorms bring chaos.

A Loki informed by Norse mythology shouldn't be complaining about Thor's "oafishness" or whatever, he should be encouraging him to wreak even more havoc. Loki shouldn't be here out of some real or imagined obligation, he should be here because he expects he's going to have a pretty good time, and because he hopes to make the situation as ridiculous as possible.

Loki being the spirit of mischief is also why depicting him as hostile to humanity isn't really in the spirit of the pre-Christian Norse worldview. Mischief and chaos are not anti-human; they're just realities of the world that humans inhabit. I get how it's easy to infer that Loki must have something against humans due to his oppositional role toward the Aesir in the Ragnarok story, but that's an extremely Christian reading of the narrative. The story is simply describing the collapse of civilization and end of the world as we know it through Norse animistic comprehension. Loki only has an issue with the Aesir, who bound him in a cave to be tortured with serpent venom. Humanity is neither here nor there for him.

Happy April, fools >:)
