It’s funny how many of us had our twins practically waving flags in our faces while we were spiritually sleepwalking. But that’s exactly how it needs to be - we can’t force that awakening moment. The truth is, meeting your twin flame before you’re ready is like trying to read a book in the dark. The words are there, but you just can’t see them yet.
I first saw this in a twin flame group on fb. I always felt it resonated hard. Especially sense I married my soul mate and I have a twin soul.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A SOULMATE AND A TWIN FLAME? (NOT INCLUDING THE PURPOSE OF A “KARMIC SOULMATE”)
There are similarities between the two, but the purpose of one is so vastly different to the other, that they in all honesty, can never truly be compared. They’re not the same thing.

This sums it up so perfectly and resonates so deeply.
Each moment with a twin flame becomes an invitation to pause, breathe, and notice what rises within us - both the beautiful and the challenging.
While soulmate connections allow us to remain somewhat in our familiar patterns, twin flames dissolve those patterns entirely, leaving us with only the present moment to navigate through. This sacred dismantling creates space for genuine presence with ourselves.
Perhaps this is why the twin flame journey feels so different - it’s not just about loving another; it’s about learning to witness ourselves completely, in all our wholeness.
