What is the difference between Soul Mates and Twin Flames?
Your soul mate(s) come in all different relationships and partnerships. They can be your friend or family member, they can be your boss or co-worker, at times even complete strangers. A soul mate is a person whose soul is contracted to connect with your soul in this life time to help you grow and move towards ascension. They come into your life and out of your life to teach you lessons about yourself and to help clear up any karmic baggage that you have carried with you from one life time to another. Have you ever noticed a pattern in the people you meet or form relationships with? If you do, then you are probably not learning your lessons and will be tested with the same situations and types of people until you become aware of what it is you are supposed to learn.
Soul mates can teach you about patience, love, loss, and letting go. The souls mate acts as the homework of life to prime you for the ultimate in spiritual relationships, the Twin Flame.
The Twin Flame relationship is the re-connection of two halves of one soul. In the beginning, our souls were one. When our souls descended to earth, they split into two halves with the purpose of finding each other again through lifetimes of lessons and karmic teachings. When you begin to become "aware" of the universe, how it works, and let go of the earthly egos that hold so many people back, then you start to move through ascension and towards finding your twin flame.
Twin Flame characteristics will mirror your own characteristics with room for individuality. You may like pizza and your twin flame does not, but you will be compatible on every level. While no relationship is perfect, the twin flame relationship will be perfect in the sense that you have found the finish line. You will share similar feeling on raising children, morals, dreams and passions (you both want to help people or you both want to make a difference), you will just know what the other is feeling or thinking, there is more than just chemistry when you are intimate, and you will know that this relationship was written in the stars. There really is no relationship like the twin flam relationship.
There is also a Twin Flame Counterfeit, this is a person whom you feel is your twin flame but there is just one problem, they fall short on some level. You two could be perfect on every aspect of your being except that they don't want children and you do, or you love each other but they are married, or there is an issue between you two that you cannot just seem to repair. The twin flame counterfeit, or imposter, is actually a higher level soul mate. They are usually the last step before you meet your twin flame. The twin flame counterfeit relationship is usually the hardest lesson to learn because you think that they are your other half and when that expectation is fractured, it can be the hardest and emotional test you will ever experience. That also means that the soul you are supposed to connect with is really close....like really close.
So what lessons are your supposed to learn from your soul mates in order to find your twin flame?? Look at the patterns in your relationships, romantic or otherwise. Do you find yourself in co-dependent relationships? Are you always looking for someone to make you feel complete or whole? Do you need validation and acceptance from your mate to feel worthy? Do you choose partners who treat you poorly? Do you mistake sex for love?
All these things are lessons that we must conquer to move up the consciousness levels of the universe. When we live out of fear, need, guilt, depression, or shame we block the energy inside all of us to really see life for what it is, beautiful. If you are constantly worrying about money, or having a boyfriend/girlfriend, and feeding the ego's need to be in control then you are living a lower level lifestyle. Once we realize that God or the Universe (what ever you are more comfortable with) will provide everything that we need and once we start doing the soul work that we actually came here (earth/lifetime) to do, then we can create and unfold anything that we desire that is for our highest good. We don't want to manifest things into existence because manifestation is a level of need and when you create out of need it may or may not be what is best for you. We will talk about manifestation vs unfolding next post, but for now to get this consciousness ball started, spend some time in silence with yourself. Right now as I channel and write, I'm listening to a Chillwave station on Pandora, thats how I can get away and meditate. Getting outside for a walk is perfect, about a half an hour into your walk you will really start to get answers from your self. Thats the universe speaking to you by the way.
Once you find your inner voice talking to you, then start to really focus on the things you desire in life. Do you want a good paying job and a house and a new car? Then you are probably feeling that you want more security. Do you desire a relationship that is healthy and happy? Then you need to start loving yourself first. Remember you attract what you focus on. If all you think about is being alone and not having a relationship, then guess what...you won't have a relationship.
Say affirmations like "the universe will provide me with everything I need" or "the love I give myself will satisfy me until God decides to introduce the person He wants me to be with, when it is right". Saying positive affirmations will help you keep your thoughts focused on the right things. If all you think is negative thoughts then all you will get in return are experiences that reflect those thoughts. When you really understand this concept, then you are ready to start moving up through ascension and you will find your self closer to finding your Twin Flame.
Until next time, take care of your self and practice self-love.
