"multiverse" - existence of alternate realities

spoiler warning : wandavision, doctor strange and the multiverse of madness.

if you have watched the movie MoM, you must have observed that every possible reality exists and there's an infinity of them. one where you were created out of blocks of cubes, another where you were paint. it's funny to think that in some reality, we might be aliens on another planet.

stephen strange happened to visit realities where christine never loved him and as always, he got friendzoned. those were his dominant assumptions in his reality. there might have been realities where christine and him got married but due to his assumption ( which many people commonly have about their sp ) that he isn't worthy of her love, he shifted to those realities where christine didn't love him.

moving onto wanda, she used her magical powers to make herself pregnant with twins while she was married to the android superhero vision. those magical powers were spells that she created but when they broke completely, her sons got erased from existence in her current reality and that was accompanied by her husband, vision getting dismantled. she desperately wanted to shift to a reality where she still had her sons and was living a happy, normal life because of the trauma of losing all of her loved ones. that turned her into scarlett witch. however, "shifting" to that reality came at a cost since she would be replacing the version of herself that was enjoying her life with her sons peacefully. she was no longer wanda, but scarlett witch. a hot yet scary villain.

In real life as well, alternate realities exist and switching realities is called "shifting". remember, how you wish you had said something different or done something else so that everything would have changed? you are switching realities with each word you say and each movement you make. but we don't notice it because of the way our minds are programed.

THE DIARY METHOD

the diary method is something i came up with in the first stages of my manifestation journey. i don’t know if anyone else came up with a similar idea or if it’s an original, but i still thought i’d share this with you, because it was so fun and helpful!

so, what is the diary method? the diary method is basically writing (scripting) a diary from the point of view of the version of yourself that has what you want. this is how it works:

first of all, you need a journal. whether it’s an old journal, or a new one you just bought. or, if it’s more comfortable for you, you can also use your notes!

then, write a date on top of the page, then write “dear diary,…” and then start writing about what a perfect day you had, inserting your desires in it. for example, if you want a new job, write that the most perfect job for you was offered to you on that day! or, if you want a dog, write about how on that day you just adopted the cutest, sweetest little puppy!

now, everyday, take five minutes out of your day to script your perfect days, and add you having your desires in those days!

this is so fun to do, it helps both with assumptions and visualizations, and you’ll get what you want so fast!!! if any of you decide to try it out, let me know how it goes! <3

Attune yourself to the energy of opulence, abundance, luxury. Hair conditioned and glossy with health. Skin clear and moisturized. Lashes long and curled. Clothes and jewelry top-tier quality. Living in the house of your dreams. Visualize it, embody it, feel it, manifest it. You deserve the best. You are wreathed in abundance and so it is.

“According to the universal laws, the magician will form his own point of view about the universe which henceforth will be his true religion.”

— Franz Bardon, “Initiation into Hermetics”

I absolutely love writing scripts and seeing it play out in the 3D. I feel like a movie director / my own genie 🧞‍♀️🧞🧞‍♂️

Sometimes you have to see discourse and go “wow, so you don’t understand the character or the material” and then leave. For your own mental state.

What helped me understand EIYPO and that I manifest every experience is this: your mind is basically on speaker for the whole world. The whole world and everyone in it wouldn’t exist without you and they are just waiting for your orders. For people I used to imagine that everyone would just stand still and just don’t think or anything (I don’t believe that people are lifeless puppets but for the sake of this analogy yk) and they were just waiting on something to come out of that speaker(basically your thoughts). And bc you are the operant power in your reality, they only do things based on what comes out of that speaker. So keep your thoughts in check y’all <3
