Twin flame soul recognition

One of the ways your spiritual awakening could start off or intensify is by meeting your twin flame. Meeting them ignites a deep intense feeling of love like never felt before, because of the immediate soul recognition. The soul recognition is so powerful that it serves as a catalyst for your spiritual awakening. This forced awakening is the beginning of the breakdown of many layers of conditioning. You start to realize that you are not what you always thought you were; your personality, thoughts, memories, emotions and your mind. What you also may experience is pain in the heart area, because of the opening of your heart chakra.

The twin flame journey often starts romantically, which makes it all the more dissappointing when your twin flame starts pulling away after a certain period of time. You are convinced that you are meant to be together and try to persuade them. You do everything to reconnect and be together again, but your twin flame pulls away even further. Everything you try (for example healing work, inner child work, the mirror exorcise, tarot cards, cutting cords) does not have any effect, instead your twin flame continues to withdraw. This phenomenon is called the running and chasing. 

You might wonder how to recognize your twin flame. This recognition is often immediate and accompanied by an overwhelming sense of connection, as if you have known them your entire life. It can feel both comforting and intense. Here are some signs that may indicate you have met your twin flame:

1. Soul Recognition: You feel a deep sense of connection. It feels like coming home, as if you have known each other for lifetimes. You experience an intense, unconditional love.

2. Synchronicities: You start searching for information about twin flames or keep coming across it. You notice an increase in coincidences or patterns, such as repeatedly seeing specific numbers (angel numbers) like 11:11 on the clock or double digits when paying for groceries. These occurrences are not about the meaning of the numbers themselves but can be seen as confirmation that your spiritual awakening has begun.

3. Doubt: Meeting your twin flame can make you question everything in your life. It is also common to doubt whether this person is truly your twin flame. You might feel compelled to ask tarot or inspiration cards to seek confirmation that this is indeed your twin flame.

4. Running and chasing: When you focus on your twin flame, the connection can create an intense cycle of attracting and repelling. Despite the challenges and distance during this dynamic, you feel a deep love that is not dependent on external circumstances.

5. Physical Pain: You may experience physical pain, particularly around your heart (heart chakra) or stomach area (solar plexus).

6. Persistent Thoughts: You experience nonstop thoughts that you cannot control. These range from doubt and uncertainty to obsessive thinking about (scenarios involving) your twin flame and feelings of despair.

7. Deep Knowing: There is an unexplainable sense of deep knowing that this person is your twin flame.

The separation that follows often leads to a state of depression, also called the dark night of the soul. This is not like anything you experienced before and it feels beyond awful. You have never felt so miserable before and wonder if you will ever come out of it. You think of your twin flame constantly and this obsessive thinking does not seem to stop. You do not seem to care about anything anymore, you lose interest in everything and it feels like nothing can bring you joy, except the idea of being in union ‘with them’ again. 

As you delve deeper into the dark night of the soul, you are confronted with your greatest fears, insecurities, and unresolved pain. It is as if everything you once believed in and built your identity upon collapses. This process can be deeply confusing as it forces you to release old patterns, beliefs and attachments. At the same time, you are challenged to turn inward and get to know yourself on a deeper level. It may feel as though you are fumbling in the dark, without any anchor or direction, but the dark night of the soul is actually an invitation to turn inward and discover your own inner light.

Although the longing for reunion with your twin flame may feel unbearable, it is essential to let go and focus on yourself. It is through the dark night of the soul that you come to understand that true love does not come from outside but from your own core. When you are willing to look within and take responsibility for facing all the layers of conditioning that have formed around you, space will be created for a deeper connection, both with yourself and your twin flame.

The purpose of meeting your twin flame goes far beyond a romantic connection. It is meant to help you grow, break through blockages, and discover your true self. Through the intense emotional rollercoaster with your twin flame, you are invited to release old patterns and conditioning. This can be incredibly challenging but also provides opportunities for profound inner work, spiritual transformation and the transformation of your being (spirit).

Twin flames cannot be ‘in a relationship’ together when the relationship is based in duality. This is why healing, cutting cords, doing mantras and any other thing at the metaphysical level do not work with your twin flame. Twin flames are the same consciousness. You are always ‘together’ at the level of the consciousness, because you are one. Therefore, technically there is no connection, because you are your twin flame. You are always together (union).

When you align with your true self you will experience this. As long as the alignment with your self has the priority, the ‘connection’ in the emotional, metaphysical and physical realm will unfold naturally and you can be physically together with your twin flame, also called ‘union’. Being ‘together’ feels like zen, inner peace, unity, true love.

Your twin flame is another incarnation with the exact same vibration/frequency as you. You can recognize your twin flame through an overwhelming feeling of connection, coming home and a deep knowing. On a deep level you recognize them immediately, this soul recognition is often the start of an awakening. The purpose of meeting your twin soul is the start of your spiritual awakening.
