I'm not sure many of us currently living in 3-D can probably answer your questions from personal experience. If any of these ideas about ascension etc. are genuinely true then it seems we will find out soon enough anyway :)

What I find interesting about all these ideas is the more and more definite information that is being channelled regarding timescales. I've noticed a shift away from the vague and general "everything will change soon" ideas we used to receive back in the 1980s/1990s to more precise information...most of which seems to revolve around 2012 as being significant as a turning point. Bashar has even given us a fairly precise alien contact timetable.

Either a lot of channellers will be eating their words within the next few years, or some significant changes are coming.

According to Wendy Kennedy's The 9th Dimensional Pleiadian Collective (TNDPC), the process of ascension to the fourth dimension will become obvious by next year (2012). (I know Rob's TReb Bor yit-NE calls these densities and reserves the word dimension for a different concept).

If I remember correctly (and this is purely from memory so may be slightly inaccurate), TNDPC say that the probable timeline is that the fourth-to-fifth dimensional/density transition will happen about 70 years after the third-to-fourth transition.

They say it's difficult to make predictions about what people will experience because different consciousnesses may experience different timelines depending on personal vibrational choices. Some may not even choose to make the transition to 4-D and will have to incarnate elsewhere to continue in a 3-D experience, since Earth will now be 4-D (and then 5-D).

I guess your question was partly inspired by my previous question Is Earth a giant extra-terrestrial ‘experiment’? so here is a snippet from the channellings of The 9th Dimensional Pleiadian Collective that may offer some further information.

The link to the full video response and article are at the bottom of the quote.

The major difference in 3D and 5D is that you have an awareness that you are a divine being, and you also have a multidimensional perspective.

You can look at other timelines, see what a choice would mean, how it would be created, generated in form, and then decide to step into or align yourself with that frequency. The other thing with 5D is that you do not experience time, not as you experience it here. In the higher realms we know that time is simply a marker.

Now, there are multiple versions of the planet that, as we have said to you before, are coexisting one on top of another. That is still true to some extent, but the timelines are separating. Some versions have a very distinct 3D version and a completely different 5D version.

Others, the 3D version and the 5D version are still close together because the agreed upon set of circumstances of the collective are rather similar. And so there is no need for the separation, or the pulling apart of those two versions.

Now, what you experience is going to depend on your frequency. So if you’re vibrating in a low resonance, if you are holding fear, and you are not conscious of the fact that you are creating and generating your own reality, that your reality is a reflection of you as a vibrational being, what you perceive is that your worst nightmares have come to life.

You don’t understand that they’re there as a reflection so that you may integrate. For those of you who are waking up, who are aware and taking responsibility for all of your creation, you’re going to have a very different experience.

Having read the question and the answers i have feeling that the "mass" shift in consciousness may not in fact happen,in 2012 or any other year.

Im open to the fact that different dimensions/densities could exist.Im open to the fact that spirit is beyond the physical dimensions we can see,taste and feel.

My problem lies in the collective shift. The question mentions humans and earth so i take it this means the majority of our race.

Im sure some of thios earths population are well aware of their faith and vibrational offering and what effect this has on their life experience.There are many on this web site who are controlling and monitering thought as directed by feeling.

My feeling is that some souls are already at and beyond this point.There have always been a few people on our earth that have lived beyond the 3D and operated beyond that.

I just cant see us all making the jump en masse.

The 2012 phenomena seems to be working its way into this debate too.

We will not have to wait too long now to see what happens.Perhaps like the population in Christs day we will be looking here and looking there.

Who knows,we may not see anything if we look to the without.Perhaps something earth changing will happen,and the majority of us wont notice it.

Maybe it already has happened.Maybe its a slow linear process,some entering in here and some there.

Life would be a filled with Christ's Light for all to see. We would all be living from the unconditional love, interconnectedness perspective. Our senses would be hightened to the point that we see sparks of light and orbs, as well as hearing angelic hymns, tones a chimes. We would all have psychic abilities of mind over matter.

Some of us trail blazers are already living in the 4th and 5th densities. We are in tune with the changes in the Earth and the Universe and we are holding this higher vibration for everyone else. As we approach the great shift more and more people are being drawn to the light to the point that there would be enough light workers to shift the masses.

When you sound a tuning fork and you place another tuning fork next to it, they will both start vibrating in the same way. People are like tuning forks. When you vibrate at a higher frequency, the others next to you all start to vibrate at that higher frequency.

i offer you the same as the qestion about, what are densitys/ i hope this helps,, here your answer to that question from my source. TReb Bor yit-NE.

hello how are you doing? i am rob and i am a channeler. my source talks about this at leangth . If you would like to see you can, if not the best way to explain is it is simmilar to what one will think of a deminsion. it shares the time/space with us but its is a diffrent leavel of pysical/molecular/spiritual/and energetic. the higher densitys are a evolution of the soul, please watch this in order and i think it will help alot! love n light,' rob

This shift in consciousness sounds a lot like how Jesus described His return in the Bible.
