Density
A density is one of seven (or eight, depending on the perspective) dimensions, levels, or cycles of evolution in an octave of experience. It is called a “density” because each successive level is more densely packed with light. As with notes on a musical scale, seven densities are grouped together into an octave where the eighth density begins the first density of the next octave, this repeating infinitely.
Each density represents a quantum vibrational spectrum or portion of intelligent energy, constituting a fundamentally different level of reality and awareness for the constituents of that density.
Designed by the Logos, every density of experience offers its own set of lessons and parameters that must be learned and understood in order to cross the threshold and graduate from one density to the next. Each density completes its cycle according to the predetermined, clock-like rhythms of intelligent energy.
The core vibrations of the seven densities have correspondence to the seven true colors and the seven energy centers.
The Seven Densities of Our Octave
The seven densities of our present octave include:
- First Density: The cycle of awareness; associated with red ray; the foundation for all that is to come, traversed largely in timelessness until space/time is realized. Consists of elements of earth, wind, fire, water.
- Second Density: The cycle of growth; associated with orange ray; the cycle of movement and striving toward the light. It consists of single-celled microscopic life at the lower end to advanced animal and plant life at the upper end.
- Third Density: The cycle of self-awareness; associated with yellow ray; the density of The Choice (service to others or service to self); the first of the activated spirit complex. It consists of humans or, as Ra calls them, mind/body/spirit complexes.
- Fourth Density: The cycle of love or understanding; associated with green ray.
- Fifth Density: The cycle of light or wisdom; associated with blue ray.
- Sixth Density: The cycle of love/light and light/love, or love and wisdom; or unity; associated with indigo ray.
- Seventh Density: The gateway cycle; associated with violet ray; the density of completion and turning towards timelessness or foreverness.
- Eighth Density: The octave which moves into a mystery Ra plumbs not; associated with pure white light; intelligent infinity.[22]
The Scroll of Livingness
We stop here for a moment to marvel at the miraculous moment that space and time come into being as a function of the learning that transpires by the entities of the first density.
The “original creation,” as Ra identifies it, exists neither in time nor space. At this stage, individualized Love is “carefully building,” in its “thought complexes,” an entire Plan for the coming densities, complete with governing laws, latent potentials, and vibratory rates. (Refer to “Logos” in this guide for more.) When that Plan is perfected, it snaps into gear. The Creator’s awe-inspiring journey into form gets underway at the most primal, rudimentary level of awareness or consciousness: the first density. From this primordial fountainhead, born of a “timeless state,” “space/time begins to unroll its scroll of livingness.”
Ra: I am Ra. You remain carefully in the area of creation itself. In this process we must further confuse you by stating that the process by which Free Will acts upon potential intelligent infinity to become focused intelligent energy takes place without the space/time of which you are so aware, as it is your continuum experience.
The experience, or existence, of space/time comes into being after the individuation process of Logos, or Love, has been completed and the physical universe, as you would call it, has coalesced or begun to draw inward, while moving outward to the extent that that which you call your sun bodies have, in their turn, created timeless chaos coalescing into what you call planets; these vortices of intelligent energy spending a large amount of what you would call first density in a timeless state, the space/time realization being one of the learn/teachings of this density of beingness.
Thus we have difficulty answering […] with regard to time and space and their relationship to the, what you would call, original creation which is not a part of space/time as you can understand it. – 28.6
Ra: I am Ra. We have just described to you the state of beingness of each Logos. The process by which space/time comes into continuum form is a function of the careful building, shall we say, of an entire or whole plan of vibratory rates, densities, and potentials. When this plan has coalesced in the thought complexes of Love, then the physical manifestations begin to appear; this first manifestation stage being awareness or consciousness. At the point at which this coalescence is at the livingness or beingness point—the point, or fountainhead, of beginning—space/time then begins to unroll its scroll of livingness. – 29.11

- In 16.25, Ra indicates that “approximately one-fifth of all planetary entities contain awareness of one or more densities.” Ra calculates this to be about 67 million planets. Of those, they say that “Some planetary spheres are hospitable only for certain densities. Your planetary sphere, for instance, is at this time hospitable to levels, or densities, one, two, three, and four.”
- When asked what the percentages of densities in those 67 million planets are, Ra answers: 1st: 17%; 2nd: 20%; 3rd: 27%; 4th: 16%; 5th: 6%; and withholds the remainder. They go onto say “There is a fairly large percentage, approximately 35% of the intelligent planets, which do not fit in the percentiles. These mysteries are of sixth and seventh density and are not available for our speaking.”
- To crunch those numbers, in millions of planets: 1st: 11.4; 2nd: 13.4; 3rd: 18.1; 4th: 10.7; 5th: 4.0. This equals 57.6 million, leaving roughly 9.4 million planets unaccounted for, which is 14% of the total, far short of the paradoxical “35% of intelligent planets which do not fit the percentiles.” However, many of those planets host multiple densities.
- In most cases, Ra uses “octave” to mean the eight densities, whether our present octave or those which came before/will come after. But, there are a few instances when “octave” is applied to an individual density:
- Ra uses the term “dimension” synonymously with “density” at times, but the former seems to have a broader meaning, whereas the latter is specific to the progression of the seven reality-levels of the octave or quantum. In 16.25, Ra also synonymizes “dimensions of consciousness” with “densities of awareness.”
