How to recognize your Twin Flame

Twin flames or twin souls is a very rare relationship, which most people will never experience. Having said that, the numbers of twin soul reunions have been increasing dramatically these days because the world has been experiencing a paradigm shift of sorts. To be clear, everyone has a twin soul but not all of us will meet our twin soul in the physical world.

Most souls choose to come down to the material, physical world in turns, while the other acts as a guardian angel to them from the spiritual world. When we cross over into this world, we come with a mission, some are global and others are personal. The twin flame relationship is one that helps and encourages us on our journey through mortal life.

However, due to the change in the world, more souls have decided to come down together. The following points are just the most common ways to recognize a twin flame relationship. Don’t despair if there are some things that are not true, because we are all living out our own individual missions and circumstances may alter.

·         It’s wasn’t love at first sight, or even second, third or fourth sight. The relationship started as a slow friendship that gradually turned into something more.

·         People that don’t know you may assume that the two of are in a relationship even before you do decide to date.

• ·         There’s a lot of arguing. 90% of the arguments are meaningless. In fact it may seem that the two of you argue for the sake of arguing. The remaining 10% of the arguments can be painful, because they bring up feelings that you may never even knew you had.
• 
  
• ·         You both seem to be as different from each other as chalk and cheese. Yet, you still connect and understand each other in some deeper way.
• 
  
• ·         You may think that the other person must have been your twin in another life because you feel like you really know each other in some basic way, where words are not even needed at times.
• 
  
• ·         Misunderstanding and disagreements can feel like the end of the world at time. In fact, you both may even have long periods of not speaking and creating distance between you two. But those periods never last and once things are patched up, it’s like the disagreement never happened.
• 
  
• ·         Friends and family may tell you that you deserve better and that you can do better than what you are “settling” for, especially when the arguments leave you heartbroken.
• 
  
• ·         All your insecurities shine brightly, as they all come up to the surface.
• ·         When one is sick or experiencing a very strong emotion, the other can feel exactly the same way, even through distances and spaces of not communicating.
• 
  
• ·         One of you may seem willing to do anything to make the relationship work, while the other seems to keep running away from the relationship, though they also run back to the relationship. This is a cat and mouse game of the twin flame relationship. One is the definite chaser and the other is a definite runner.
• 
  
• ·         There comes a time when there is a sudden break up in the relationship, initiated by the runner. The break up will cease all communication and contact and it will leave the chaser in state of extreme heartache. But in time the chaser will become more spiritually inclined, and will begin a new phase of finding peace and happiness.
• 
  
• ·         The relationship resumes once the chaser has achieved spiritual growth and experiences self love and independence. The runner will return though it may take years.
• 
  
• ·         Often the twin flame embodiment is not what our ego wants. Meaning, we may look for a tall person but the twin soul comes in a short body. There is a great physical difference between the two of you at some point. It might be different states or different countries or even different continents. The reason for this is that the soul needs time to heal and sort out its issues before the universe can initiate the union.

This list is comprised of the things that I have personally experienced in my own twin flame relationship. But from researching twin souls and twin flames, I have realized that we all experience more or less the same things.

Also I think that it’s worth mentioning that the twin soul and the higher-self are two separate things that are part of the same thing. The higher-self will never incarnate into this world, but it is always with each twin, guiding and helping. The higher-self can be used as a medium between you and your twin, should you wish to communicate with your twin. Your higher-self can facilitate you meeting your twin soul, or help you achieve the spiritual enlightenment that is required to fix the problems experienced by the relationship.

It must be understood that all problems that come up during the relationship are just reflections of our own internal turmoil. The twin soul relationship is not an easy one to deal with. It goes against everything we expect from relationships in society and it acts as pure mirror to reflect our own insecurities. If you blame your twin for the insecurities you feel, then you won’t have a loving and fulfilling relationship, because the truth is that the insecurity lies within you and you need to fix you. Then the relationship will reflect perfect unconditional love and happiness. You have to become loving and happy within yourself before you can have that with your twin, because only then will it reflect love and happiness.

I like to think of twin flames like two rivers merging into one river. Each river has its own purpose and mission. Each river has its own force and flow. Each river supports its own eco-system. At the point of convergence, the two rivers are two whole beings that become one being. The single river then has a joint purpose and mission.

Likewise, each twin must try to become whole on their own before seeking to form a greater whole.

Peace, Love and Blessing for Happiness to all. :-D
