The Difference Between 3D and 5D Consciousness

What’s the big deal?

In the spiritual world, 3D and 5D paradigms are becoming a more prominent dichotomy. Higher realms exist, lower realms exist, and our material realm sits somewhere in the middle.

Most spiritual people will tell you that you must leap to 5D consciousness like it’s a form that you sign up for. Simply, just become a being of light and transcend, they will tell you, then you will experience nothing but love and light.

Hmm, okay. Hold my beer while I just transcend this Earthly realm like we all do (and then give it back because that’s $5 in today’s economy).

But perhaps, there’s a little more nuance to it all that’s left unmentioned by the Etsy gurus, shamans, and psychics. 5D consciousness is real, and people can access it. Many highly evolved spiritual people have expanded their awareness enough to see spirituality as a normal aspect of life.

So let me impart my understanding of this whole 3D/5D thing.

3D Consciousness: Low vibrational paradigm

The 3D paradigm is associated with a low-vibrational reality. Imagine it as a super close-minded, materialistic, unconscious and unaware way of living.
