log in problems

trying to login to my new url – keep getting the old one – illusionsdotnet
new one – psycosmogy.com
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

There is no domain mapping upgrade for psycosmogy.com. If you would like to use this domain to map to from an underlying .wordpress.com blog URL you will first need to set up domain mapping.

re: mapping an existing domain
WordPress.com does not accept domain transfers https://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/#transferring-a-domain-to-wordpress-com but mapping an existing domain is possible.Domain mapping of an existing domain URL that you already own and purchased elsewhere is not done free of charge. You will have to renew the domain name purchase where you made, it and the domain mapping purchase here, each and every year.
Mapping an existing domain costs $13. annually and a domain name purchase and domain mapping are included in the Premium upgrade bundle.
In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com sub-domain blog to map from and it does not matter what that underlying .wordpress.com URL is. It does not have to match the domain URL.
If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog you log in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the WordPress.COM blog, and as you own a domain URL already, you can see here for mapping an existing domain. http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/
It can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.

I see no upgrades in your account.Additionally, the domain, psycosmogy.com, is showing as available to register, which means you do not currently own it.
If you want to use that domain with your WordPress.com site, you can register it by going to the Domains page, here: https://wordpress.com/domains/add/
See here for more information:
https://en.support.wordpress.com/register-domain/If you want to use that domain with a website you’ve created somewhere else, you’ll have to ask your web host how to register and connect the domain with them.
