What is a Twinflame Connection and What is its Purpose 

(* this article is highly esoteric based and according to mainstream science, it's unknown whether twinflames truly exist. Yet, there are thousands of testimonies around the world of people who have said to believe that their partner or someone they have met is their divine counterpart or twinflame and that they share the same soul.)

What Are Twinflames

Twinflames are said to have a rare and rather unique connection; they are each others divine counterpart. They often recognise each other through instant soul recognition upon first meeting, as there is a strong, undeniable magnetic pull. Within the twinflame connection, there is the divine feminine and the divine masculine or the yin and the yang energies. They are one soul split into two separate incarnations; two physical bodies or people, who both are one soul.

We all occupy both energies at any given moment and so these concepts have nothing to do with gender but has everything to do with the polarization of energy, with both the positive (DF) and the negative (DM). It is thought that the feminine is usually the one who is more spiritually aware and eventually tends to find out about the twinflame concept, versus the masculine who's more rooted into the matrix or illusion of physical reality. 

Both counterparts are coming from the same oversoul as it chose to separate itself before experiencing physical life, in order to achieve the highest amount of reflectivity from both parties, to evolve spiritually. Together they have an important purpose to raise the consciousness and vibration of planet Earth.

The Difference Between Twinflames And Soulmates

Twinflames and soulmates are not the same and don't share the same life purpose. Whereas soulmates also have a soul connection, twinflames are each others divine mirror and share a bond that forever contains true unconditional love in the 3D and etheric realm. Because they come from the same oversoul and thus are the same soul split in two, they not only are each others reflection but also have a shared chakra system. We furthermore can have many soulmates but only one twinflame. This is the belief many ancient esoteric and spiritual teachers, such as Plato, have concluded and shared.

Your soulmate can be your partner but also a friend or teacher; it can be anyone at any given moment to reflect and show you what you need to know, to become more of who you are, according to Bashar. Your twinflame on the other hand, is generally always a romantic partner, yet some believe it could also be someone else or even an animal. However, you don't have to necessarily be with your twinflame to have found the perfect person to be with if they are a romantic interest; nor will you necessarily meet them in this lifetime, depending on the lessons your soul wants to learn. You might be more compatible to be with a soulmate instead, whereas in a next or other lifetime, you are meant to be with your twinflame.

Divine Mission

Twinflames have a divine mission on the planet to not only grow and develop themselves spiritually, but also to help guide others towards ascension. Their connection is very mission focused and it is often one they work on together, to better humanity as a whole; soulmate relationships in the romantic sense, are ones that exist to experience and enjoy more of the general things that involve human incarnation, without the main goal of achieving an acceleration towards samadhi or enlightenment.

Your Twinflame Is Your Divine Mirror

Your twinflame is your perfect mirror, so it is a very spiritual and beautiful but at the same time therefore often difficult  connection, especially in the beginning phases of the relationship; hence the intense runner/chaser dynamic that is mostly prevalent between both, which causes them to attract and repel each other very easily because they are the same soul essence but in a different body. They will share many of the same values, interests and have similar characteristics, as well as past experiences and the same sort of life purpose but one twinflame will also be the total opposite of the other on the level of the mind, because that's where both are polarized (yin/yang). F.e: if one is more talkative or outgoing, the other person might be more reserved and on the quiet side.

Not Everyone Meets Their Twinflame 

There are many different views on whether or not everyone has a twinflame, except for some old traditions and those who believe only highly evolved souls do. Some people believe not everyone has a twinflame or if they do, they might not be incarnated around the same time the other person is still alive. If you wonder if you have already met your twinflame or if they are also here waiting to reunite with you, chances are that if you have ascended high enough and raised your vibration and consciousness to a certain point where you feel whole within yourself, the probability of meeting them in divine timing could be quite possible.

Self-Love

Both twinflames are the perfect yin and yang to each other. That's the reason why a twinflame connection many times isn't very easy to deal with; especially if you don't love yourself enough, since they will trigger the (hidden) shadow aspects of you. You can't run away from it either because your twinflame is literally your soul and thus they will confront you in order to assist in helping you become more aware and make better decisions. Ultimately, the connection will always make you become better because your twinflame is here to teach you about self-love and what it means to love unconditionally; yourself, your twinflame, as well as others and everything that is our universe. 

The two of you are always a mirror to each other, so if there's something you don't like about them, it's likely because there's a negative belief within yourself that is reflected in your divine counterpart. Your twinflame will also find it easier to see and love you for who you really are, if you truly love yourself. When you thus then work on yourself and do the inner work, they will automatically do the same within themselves, which then gets reflected back to you in a positive way. It's important to note that until you have worked out your own insecurities, a twinflame connection will simply not be the easiest to deal with. However, it's worth the effort and patience because you will, most likely, evolve so much through your experience; more than you will with any other person or connection.
