Many of us know or intuitively feel that we are transitioning
from the third dimensional reality, passing through the fourth
and on our way to the fifth dimension. Dimensions are not places
but instead levels of consciousness, each with its own characteristics
and ways of thinking and feeling.
Our Third Dimensional Experience
The third dimension operates within a specific set
of rules and structures that hold many vibrations
of thought and emotion. One of those vibrations is
known as ‘fear.’ On
our spiritual journey to fully experience All-That-Is, we went
deeper and deeper into density and chose many lives on Earth.
To experience ourselves in the third dimension, we purposely
left behind aspects of ourselves and lost our sense of connection
to the Creator. In this perceived sense of separation, we began
to experience the energy called fear. This fear created
rigidity, making it very difficult for us to move freely.
As we continued to passionately play in this rigid third
dimension, we began to take on many uncomfortable attributes
such as dis-ease, victim and resistance. We chose to
do this in order to know ourselves better. In spite of what we
think, we have been very successful in this third dimensional
game.
Many who are in fear, have created a default system that
takes them back to a feeling of safety: “If I just go into
my house and close the doors, I’ll be fine.” This
reaction has closed down our ability to expand, grow, merge with
the Soul and remember our higher selves. We then stopped living
our passion and created a web of fear.
If we look carefully, we can see three structures of
the 3D game-board we are playing upon that are really worth
paying attention to in order to make our transition through
this grand Shift more comfortable.
1. Duality. The purpose of duality has been to learn
how to walk in balance while experiencing contrast. We wanted
to have experiences but not become affected by the experiences.
The purpose was to provide us with a broad array of choices.
A great gift was also provided that allows us to know
where we are and what we are experiencing at all times.
The Law of Attraction simply says, “What you put your attention
on is what you draw to you.” As we resisted our fears,
a greater range of duality came about: good/bad, right/wrong,
should/shouldn’t. Our attention on the uncomfortable experiences
and fears expanded. We resisted this discomfort and placed them
into our unconscious mind to (hopefully) not experience them
again. However, the Law of Attraction doesn't just give
us the good stuff, it gives us what we hold our attention
on, whether conscious or unconscious, comfortable or
uncomfortable, what we resist or what we love.
2. Linear Time. 3D time was not created as a straight line
but instead a loop, consisting of the past and future with a
single present-time point where we make choices based on past
experiences and future desires. However, with our attention on
fear, we began to look at our past as emotional, painful experiences
that we wished to avoid. 3D Life became a game of resisting
or believing the past and expecting or avoiding the future. Most
of us spend a great deal of time looking at past experiences
we didn’t enjoy, and looking into the future hoping it
doesn’t jump up and hurt us again. So the past creates
the future while the future experiences the past.
Time was also created as a buffer so we could create
but still have a little room to reconsider our reactions, thoughts
and emotions before we create something that we then must clean
up or apologize for afterwards.
3. The Rational Mind. Our analytical, reasoning thought
process. When we came to play in this game we disconnected
90% of our available awareness in order to have this
experience. The 3D rational mind's purpose has become
to keep us safe and fit in. Due to fear and mis-use,
the rational mind operates in limitation rather than
possibility and opportunity. Because
we have given assignments to the mind that it is not
designed for, our awareness and spiritual range of choice
have lessened. The rational mind only knows what it knows
and argues for that limitation. This is now changing.
These three structures all work together, and are interwoven
to make up the fabric of the 3D game. If you focus on only one,
the other two become amplified, creating more distraction, creating
more pressure until you back off to where the three structures
return to balance. By becoming aware of how each of these aspects
weave together, we can begin to remember and restructure a significant
part of ourselves, thus allowing us to step out of the third
dimension and experience the possibilities of the fourth.
Fourth Dimensional Structures
Now let's explore the structures within the fourth dimension.
1. Most importantly, Time is key. Time in 4D is Now.
Present-Time. There is no past, no future. We can plan
for a future event using information gathered in the
past, but decisions are conscious and in the present
moment. What we think
- we will experience in the moment. There is no lag time.
What you think happens! Be careful what you think, it
will occur.
2. Choices. 4D choice is different than 3D reaction.
Choice provides flexibility, creating expanded opportunity and
greater ability to combine possibilities to produce different
outcomes.
3. Paradox. In 4D the past and future become points of
reference or information without emotional attachment. What was
true a moment ago is not necessarily true in this Now moment.
And what was false may not necessarily be false any longer. This
opens up more possibilities to experience, releases judgments
and increases allowing.
4. Alignment/Balance. In 4D we are constantly moving
toward balance. This structure is very open, entertaining
and allowing of all possibilities. Choices that support well
being and Love are the only option. Fear is just another choice “How
is it possible?” is often asked. Compare this to 3D, where
as change occurs, we focus on the thought or feeling of “What
could go wrong?”
5. Abundance. The fourth dimension also allows us to
experience abundance versus scarcity and to consider “we” as
a concept of cooperation versus “Me, me, me. What about
me?” 4D consciousness allows us to expand outward and experience
the “We-us” of cooperation.
Re-learning how to live in the possibilities and community
of the fourth dimension while we walk through the density
of the third is part of our task – our quest on
Earth as we become who we came here to be.
