Your Soul's Twin Flame

The love experienced between two reunited twin flames is like a wildfire.

It can’t be captured.

It can’t be contained.

It can’t be tamed.

Instead, it burns fiercely with an unquenchable form of intensity that is both exhilarating and formidable.

It burns you to ashes, but also forges you into a new creature, like a Phoenix emerging out of the dust.

One misconception that many believe is that your twin flame will complete you. However, I believe they help to support your spiritual evolution to become more of the person you were born to be.

No one and nothing should ever be given the power to complete you, YOU complete yourself. Never give away your personal power.

You don’t need a twin flame in your life as a prerequisite to evolve or feel happy, though. 

Every twin flame relationship is unique and can’t be simplified into one set thing. 

Twin flames are said to be beings that aid our souls in finding completion.

The Ancient Greek philosopher Plato first created the idea of souls “split in two” that eternally yearned to find their “other halves.” 

And, to this day, many still carry around this idea of “finding their other half,” to be complete.

While twin flames do help us to experience unconditional love, and grow immensely as people, not all of us will be blessed enough to find our twin flame, and that’s okay. 

It helps to remember that the degree to which you can experience harmony in your twin flame relationship is dependent on your level of soulful maturity.

It’s up to you to do your soul searching and work out what lessons you came here to learn and evolve through.

FINDING THE ONE

In this preliminary stage, you may feel like you have spent your entire life looking for “The One” that doesn’t yet exist in your life. You have this knowing that someone who is perfectly moulded to you is out there, but you don’t quite know where or when they will appear in your life.

This is the perfect time to prepare for the arrival of the twin flame. In my instance, I had to learn how to truly love myself and embody my masculine and feminine equally before I met mine. For others, this stage of preparation involves the development of self-awareness, discovery, and understanding.

At some point, you will have a brief glimpse of your twin flame. Whether this is through a dream, or through a real-life meeting.

The result is profound. Wonder, joy, anxiety, and intoxication quickly follows.

For those cautious among us, a lingering sense of intense curiosity and desire to get to know the person better is felt. 

You don’t know what it is exactly, you just sense that this person is extremely special.

Like me, you may just know that this is the person created to change your life –  even before you meet.

When you fall for this person, you will fall extremely hard, harder than you have ever fallen for anyone before – and the impact will knock the breath right out of you.

In fact, as you get to know your twin flame, you will continue to fall more and more deeply in love with them. As a result, you’ll find it hard to stand with two feet on the ground.

Some may try to resist the attraction if you’re not fully awakened, but, eventually, you’ll accept the reality that you’re deeply and madly in love.

As both of you eventually make your feelings known and enter into a relationship, life will feel like a fairytale. Your relationship with them will be perfect in every possible way. It will seem as though your twin flame fulfills every single need you have and everything you ever possibly wanted. This is what the matured twin flame relationship looks like.

TWIN FLAMES THAT CHALLENGE YOU

If you haven’t become fully awakened and soulfully mature there may be trouble in paradise.

As the ecstasy from the initial meeting period wears off, egos may start to flare up.

Suddenly, differences in opinion, taste, and personality arise, and old core wounds emerge out of the gloom.

While our twin flames share and mirror our deepest needs, desires, and dreams, they also tend to mirror our shadow selves.

For example, if you are an emotionally repressed person, your twin flame will likely be emotionally explosive. If you tend to be arrogant, your twin flame will most likely be uncertain and quiet.

In this way, our twin flames challenge us, riling up our insecurities. This can be infuriating, devastating, and at times very painful.

While all the arguing and fighting in this stage may seem disastrous, the truth is that it’s necessary for our growth. Without being provoked, without seeing ourselves for who we really are, we live in the illusion and fail to grow soulfully. But this may be hard to realise while you’re going through such turbulence in your relationship.

As tensions mount, it is common for one partner (or sometimes both) to emotionally or physically withdraw and run away, and another to pursue in a game of cat and mouse.

Sometimes, this involves emotional shutdown and silent treatment. Other times, this involves physical separation and, in extreme cases, the permanent termination of the relationship.

In this stage, twin flames experience a trial by fire. While some relationships last and are strengthened, others crumble to pieces.

As I mentioned at the start, this is all dependent on each partner’s soulful maturity. 

Sometimes one partner leaves for many months or years and then returns, only to repeat the cycle once again. The chaser, on the other hand, tends to be the more mentally and emotionally mature partner of the two, trying to sort everything out and grow the relationship.

SURRENDERING TO THE SHADOW

Once the shadow of your relationship has been revealed, you may experience a period of surrender.

After so much anguish, distress and provocation, you both begin to open up about your wounds and insecurities.

In this stage, it is common to experience a lot of ego dissolution and soulful expansion. As the ego relaxes, powerful lessons are learned about the nature of oneself and the nature of the other.

As you begin learning how to work through your differences, the maturity of your relationship deepens and thus strengthens.

It is common to go through these stages many times throughout your relationship, so don’t despair if this happens, we need to embody these feelings to grow your commitment.

As the problems in your relationship become increasingly easier to deal with, you will enter a period of soul reunion. It’s common for you to both find a shared meaning, passion, or cause that brings you a mutual sense of fulfillment.

As the ego continues to relax, virtues such as forgiveness, understanding, empathy, and patience are learned. The more you both work through each issue that comes your way vigilantly, the more you experience the sensation of Oneness that comes with the death of the ego.

These stages are completely unnecessary though, and won’t be experienced if you start building your emotional maturity prior to meeting your twin flame.

Then the eternal bond between twin flames can continue to grow without any challenges. 

Remember, this is a love that transcends time, space, and even death.

It represents the ultimate union of

masculine and feminine energy.

The connection between twin flames is so

powerful that it can withstand any obstacle or

challenge that comes its way.

Twin flames are destined to be together and their union is meant to bring a greater spiritual awakening.

This union will bring a profound sense of love, understanding, and happiness.

Our universe grants every SOUL a TWIN reflection of themselves, a kindred spirit. And no matter where they are, or how far away they are from each other, they will always find one another.

This is destiny, this is love, this relationship is not led by the ego or the mind, only the heart.
