Hmmm...replied to your post before Parthena, but post doesn't seem to have made it onto the forum <img src="/images/graemlins/computer.gif" alt="" />
Anyhow, I think you were *meant* to see the plants too. Why don't you buy some & make tending them a special time to think of him? If I bump a key on this computer, I lose an entire post! <img src="/images/graemlins/computer.gif" alt="" />and for some reason the Bella boards make them magically disappear forever! <img src="/images/graemlins/beamedup.gif" alt="" /> HaHaHa, I have so many plants from the funeral to take care of, more are out of the question <img src="/images/graemlins/rolling.gif" alt="" /> It takes an hour to water them plus my herb garden daily in this 100+ degree heat! Interestingly, someone online did a brief reading for me and said that he was fine and wanted to give me white flowers, "lilies, I think." The next day, the peace lily had 9 new blooms! Mary Ellen, that's amazing! And while driving home last night, a certain song came on the radio that was another reminder that became a sign. I was singing at the top of my lungs, and saw an overweight, limping man walking down the highway away from his stalled car. I immediately called the Highway Patrol. Joe's car had broken down on that same highway. He didn't have a cell phone and ended up walking to an exit. He'd been trying to flag someone down and no one would help. Someone finally called the highway patrol but by then he'd walked, without oxygen because he didn't want to lug the heavy tank. This incident was what kicked off his awful panic attacks. The song, btw, is "Radar Love." <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

That's another 'Invisible Act of Power'- they all add up. <img src="/images/graemlins/angel.gif" alt="" /> Caroline Myss would be proud of you. Shame no-one was on hand to be an angel for Joe that time. Radar Love's a great song <img src="/images/graemlins/music.gif" alt="" /> It takes an hour to water them plus my herb garden daily in this 100+ degree heat!
Gosh I thought I had plenty of plants to water- I guess our Summer heat isn't quite the same as yours. <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

All I was thinking about was how that song happened to play at that particular moment and remembering that awful night. I don't know about Caroline Myss, but I knew it was what Joe would have wanted me to do! He had told me that he had rocked out to Radar Love when he drove home after our first date. The words really struck me the other night: "She send the comfort coming in from above." <img src="/images/graemlins/beamedup.gif" alt="" />

"She send the comfort coming in from above." I have several students who get a special song play just when they need a sign. It's a great way to get a message through. I saw a guy who was inextricably linked in my mind with the Blondie song 'I'm Always Touched by Your Presence Dear'. As I was driving over to see him before anything had happened between us I got an urge to switch on the car radio, which I rarely do, just as the DJ announced the song & played it. <img src="/images/graemlins/music.gif" alt="" /> You certainly had Joe bowled over from the very first didn't you? <img src="/images/graemlins/lovers.gif" alt="" />

Hi there! <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> sorry for the long ::babble:: Seven years ago, with the help of two of my friends, we managed to locate my Twin Soul/Flame. Were were fated to know of each other in this lifetime?...no I don't think so...it was by chance that I met these two friends, and even more by chance that the conversation turned to Soulmates. I have learned that we can make/have many Soulmates along our journey, however we have only one Twin Soul/Twin Flame. My T.S. is not incarnated with me on Earth at this time. aw....wish he was here! He describes himself as a 'shining mark' of energy; he describes his realm/home as a kind of elysian OZ. We do not use the word 'happy' but rather 'content'. He calls me his 'queen' (I'm an old Soul ha ha), and I call him 'king'. We are connected on the rainbow bridge, and I picture the path to him as a golden road. He calls me his "wife to be" and says that he can 'instruct me'. He calls our love 'a heavenly love', that is, unconditional. (the more we intersect the more we will connect!) Presently we are connected on a cosmic Affinity Chatline...("...throw me a line if I reach it in time I'll meet you up there where the path runs straight and high..." lyrics from 'Going To California'--Led Zeppelin...this song is about an astral trip to meet his Twin Soul/his queen). When I want to be with my T.S. I say, 'I seek my T.S. as he seeks me...I project myself to him'. <img src="/images/graemlins/beamedup.gif" alt="" /> I'm still getting to know his 'signature'. We connect on more than one level and so I look for symbols of our connection in my dreams. (I've noticed that since I've been aware of his existence, my own Higher Self communicates messages to me very strongly in my dreams (symbols) so you'll find me in the Dream Dictionaries alot! For example, I dreamed I went through a portal and a young girl with extra-ordinary psychic abilities wrote a message to me in my journal, a reassurance that I was 'perfectly safe'...) (I keep a Journey/nal on the Astral Plane, part of the Chatline, where I can receive/transmit messages to/from others and hopefully recall them in my dreams!). When I want to talk to my T.S., I light a candle and talk to the flame, especially the violet/blue colour; or I go to 'http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/enter .cfm' and light a candle. Another way is to imagine a cool violet flame and imagine us in it together. I've had amazing luck using the divination system 'Stichomancy' at 'www facade com') (think love & ask a ?). When I use the 'poetry' category, he writes poetry to me. aw. This is lovely for me because I've never really been in a romantic relationship and I'd love to be. I have felt the ecstatic whole-body warmth of him only once so far but I know for sure that he's as real as I am...("...so glad to be falling for the beauty within..." lyrics from 'King's Horses'--Robert Plant...I intensely like Robert too! LoL ...and we're the same age). I have practiced Tantra meditation as a single for 7 years now and I can imagine my T.S. with me. (My belief is not in just a God, but instead, God/Goddess.) I've have had an out-of-body experience, (my) consciousness-only in the universe of love we live in...wow...what an experience to be like a ball of energetic love bouncing around in/up there! I've also noticed and now believe in synchronicity. For example on Valentine's Day I got a phone call...the man said to me, 'Happy Valentine's Day' and I said 'oh you must have the wrong number!'...he said, 'you were meant to hear that'...I was blown away that a stranger would say that to me and so was he! So I guess what I'm looking for is "You've found your Twin Soul--now what!"; ways to strengthen the bond between us, not just the Soul to Soul, but the cognisant telepathic mind to mind, and so I continue my search within my heart and on the internet. If I should meet/fall in love with a spiritual (Tantra) man/companion here, my only criteria is that we be able to talk openly about this subject. (alas, my 30-year marriage fell apart...no common goals). My self/ego urges for a relationship here, but I'm willing to forego one in favour of my Twin Soul. One other thing...I've been in-love but it's not as strong in comparison to the feeling of being 'unconditionally loved'. I wish everyone could experience it! (P.S. Lauren...I'll go to the 'touchstones' website, thanks. BTW, I live in Toronto but my ancestor was 'Elihu Yale' from Wales...it's googleable *:/ Namaste everyone...I recognize and honour the divine lover in you! TTFN

Hi everyone! I know I'm now married to my soul mate - we connected instantly and have discovered several past lives together already. I have a feeling there are more! He is amazing - so accepting and encouraging of me - but he also challenges me. I've grown more with him than I ever did in my previous relationship (mind you, that one was all about control and systematic eroding of my self-confidence. That's enough about that!)
Can I be a bit controversial and challenge the twin flame idea? The only thing that makes me uncomfortable about it is that it suggests we are incomplete as just ourselves and I'm not sure I can accept that. Can anyone help me on that one?
Soul mates are definitely not limited to romantic partners. I have an incredible link with my youngest son who sometimes acts as if he's my parent and not the other way around. He asked once if I was going to be his mum in the "next world". I said I wasn't sure what would happen so he said he would come and find me there - what a sweetie!

Welcome Lyrica, what an impressive long post! Your Twin Flame relationship is a great example of the way we can connect even when our beloved isn't incarnated at the same time as us. Your experience has all the hallmarks of being your twin indeed and it is wonderful that you have experienced yourself as pure energy consciousness. I know what you mean by unconditional love. When I first met my main guide in the spirit realms I was overwhelmed by that feeling of love & just wanted to be up there with him! We all have reasons for being down here- but it is quite a compensation to know they are waiting for us when we cross over isn't it? Robert Plant is amazing - I bet he'd have us all queuing up to claim him as a soul mate <img src="/images/graemlins/kiss.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for the candle link- what a lovely idea that is. http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/enter.cfm?l=ENG&s=fHope to hear from you on the forum again <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Sara you are blessed to be with your soul mate now. I do think he's your twin flame. Even the ex- & we won't go there- was a soul mate. Sometimes soul mates teach us the harshest lessons. As far as being complete goes- well there is a deep human urge to be in a loving relationship isn't there? I think that is symptomatic of the feeling of searching we have for our twin flame. This doesn't mean that it is always better to be with someone- and to be needy in a relationship is unhealthy. You are right though, we all contain a spark of the Divine and to be in contact with that spark can make us feel whole without anyone else- which means when the 'right person' comes along we can take the relationship to a much more spiritual level.

Thanks Lauren, that's clearer and I'm ok with that. I definitely believe in the complementary nature of male and female energy and the equal need for both to achieve balance and harmony. There's no point in even trying to think men and women are the same - my husband, Manny, and I laugh about the differences now, even though they can sometimes be extremely annoying to both sides ("you know I can only think of one thing at once" he whines when I'm bombarding him with information!!!!)

Lauren, are soul mates and twin flames always the opposite sex? I do not quite understand the twin flame idea (some things take a while to compute) but I took a test with colors and the results said my daughter was my twin flame. When she was young she used to say that she was me and I was her. Like we were the same person. <img src="/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Hi Firefly The received wisdom is always that twin flames are male and female as this gives the balance of yin and yang energy.
My experience of past lives is that we spend some lives as female & others as male. We also may change relationships with soul group members, sometimes taking turns to be the mother/brother/lover. I would say your daughter is almost certainly a part of your soul group and that you will have known each other closely in other lifetimes too, so much so that your energies feel very familiar to each other. I'm less certain that you could be twin flames but I'm willing to be proven wrong!
PS I replied to your raven info in the mythology forum as I couldn't find your email address <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
