We have been 3rd density beings for quite some time, even though, it is by far the shortest duration within the development of consciousness. In 3rd density we develop a self-consciousness. We are conscious of the self as a separate being in relation to the larger whole. We often don't realize there is anything outside this singular self we call ourselves Unfortunately, here is where duality and contrasting views are most prevalent. "I am this, you are that." In 3rd density, beings think for themselves, and the most significant choice we encounter is whether to live in service to self (Living primarily for our own good) or in service to others (where we live to help others). There is no right or wrong here, both are allowed in 3rd density. In 3rd density, beings feel separate from the one source energy, creation, or what some call God. This is also where an individual being begins to realize that thoughts hold energy, and thoughts and energy affect the consciousness as a whole and even the over all density of the planet.
So what is it that is happening now? The 4th density is merging with 3rd. This brings on ascension and this may feel like you are going somewhere but you are not, you are raising your consciousness right where you are. This has been happening for about 30 years or more, but has been speeding up especially within the last 5 -8 years. The environment shifted first (think 2012) by altering the frequency and vibration of this planet. Here’s where it gets confusing. The numbering order matches the frequency level — higher densities correspond to higher frequencies. Also please don’t confuse dimension to mean the same thing as density, they are very different.
The world of 3D consciousness is complex, intricate, and often confusing and contains plenty of drama. 3rd density consciousness is also where the ego emerges — that sense or I did this or this is my doing. This level of consciousness can manifest powerful resolve and will-power. It is a level characterized by very strong Individualism and "go it on my own" and "do it my way" attitude. Empires are built by such a consciousness when it is fully unleashed.
Our planetary consciousness is 3rd Density (at least it was until recently, now it's shifting into 4th density) and in the past most people would reside at this level for much, if not all, of their lives.
The 4th density of consciousness is the level where the journey to becoming a full fledged sovereign being begins. This density still has most of the characteristics of 3rd density except that at this level the beings have polarized to one of two modes — Service To Self (STS) and Service To Others (STO). These modes represent two polar opposites in the manner in which beings will direct their energy — essentially there is two states of 4D consciousness — 4D STO and 4D STS.
Adopting of one of these two distinct polarities — STO or STS — is what moves you to this level of consciousness. Of course, most people who have made the shift to 4th density are not consciously aware that they have done so — it's usually an implicit choice rather than an explicit one. In many ways, this polarization enhances the duality of the reality manifested by this level of consciousness. And intensifies the many drama that plays out at this level. On worlds populated with mostly 4th density being's victim/perpetrator/rescuer dramas are still being widely played out and greed, competition, conflict is still prevalent.
A full-fledged 4D Service to others individual might be a person who is doing charity work or helping the poor on the streets. Or it might be a person who invests a lot of their time and energy in environmental and animal rights issues. The 4D STO polarity had been called the polarity of compassion, as this is what rules their heart. The challenge for those at this density is to avoid burnout. 4th density beings tend to give all they have and then exhaust themselves and their resources. Typically, a STO being tends to give too much and receive too little. An STS being tends to take too much and give too little. So both STS and STO beings find that, lifetime after lifetime, that they either burn themselves out or end up all alone with nothing. 4th density beings (and 4th density societies) can be fairly successful but ultimately their success it limited by the fact that they don't understand one simple truth — you have to give to get, and you have to get to give. When they finally come to understand this, then they are ready to move up the ladder to the 5th density of consciousness.
The 5th density of consciousness has been called the density of "balanced polarity". At this level, the ascending being will still have an STO or STS orientation, as had emerged as they entered 4th density. But they will know that they must attain a better balance between the two by expressing more of the opposite polarity.
5D STO beings realize that they must be open to receiving from all those that are willing to give to them so that they can give their great service in a sustainable fashion. They can become powerful change agents because, for the first time, they are channeling energies through themselves rather than simply giving their own energy. They are the conduit instead of the source.
