BellaOnline Forums Relationships Relationships Have You Met Your Soul Mate?

I think that there can be more than one soul mate, depending on one's particular place in spiritual progression. To me, a soul mate is one with whom you've made a pact to aid along the way.

I guess if you're talking about the one-and-only, other-half-to-your-soul, type of soul mate...then, I believe that some of us may not have the opportunity to connect with him or her on this earthly journey.

Anyway, it's good to feel whole and be in touch with your essence so you don't feel lonely at all. Because at our very core, we're all in touch with the ALL that connects everyone and everything. You're still in touch with your soul mate then, even if not in the physical dimension. Sounds like a bunch of metaphysical hooey, but that is what I truly believe.

Lori, I do not think of it as "hooey" (love that word), rather it is part of a belief system. You have expressed the soul mate eternal bonds very well and very beautifully.

I, too, believe we have more than one soul mate. My whole family have been closely connected in each life time, and always closely. The "twin soul" is the one that is your other half. Twin souls come together in each life time, but not always as partners in a relationship.

Ah, and I am enlightened by your wisdom. I never heard the term "twin soul" but can see the difference between the twin soul and soul mate.

I read somewhere that on a different plane, these souls--twin souls, I guess--merge into one. Thus, the biblical saying of "the two shall become one." Some may think we're really twisting this but there are realities that will astound us all when we come to know them.

That reminds me of the Wedding Song:

He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts
Rest assured this troubador is acting on His part.
The union of your spirits, here, has caused Him to remain
For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name
There is Love. There is Love.

Well a man shall leave his mother and a woman leave her home
And they shall travel on to where the two shall be as one.
As it was in the beginning is now and until the end
Woman draws her life from man and gives it back again.
And there is Love. There is Love.

Well then what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife?
Is it Love that brings you here or Love that brings you life?
Or if loving is the answer, then who's the giving for?
Do you believe in something that you've never seen before?
Oh there's Love, there is Love.

Oh the marriage of your spirits here has caused Him to remain
For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name
There is Love. Oh there's Love.

Yes - two days after I cast a spell for "The Woman Right for Me"

Well...can you cast a spell for me? I know who my soul mate is. The problem is he does not.

No...that's ok. I would rather it be his choice.

Interesting....I saw the title of this thread and immediately wanted to answer, "Yes, I have found my soul mate!" Yet as I read the thread I started to think perhaps I have met my twin soul. Never heard it put that way but it makes sense. My love and I are very similar (yet just different enough to make it interesting!) and we had a very quick, intense connection. Either way I am very happy. He is a lovely man, boyfriend, lover, friend and twin soul!

Welcome to BellaOnline, caterina13. It is so special when one is with their twin soul.

I like Lori's reply about being a Soul Mate depending on the spiritual level you are at and what another person's spiritual level is at.

For me, I've found I am a bare all kind of person, so I'm easy to find, not guarded. When I have an instant connection it's strong until one or the other person veres off someplace.

So a Soul Mate that was, who at one time made it easy to breath, if they feel driven to maybe not pursue their spiritual path and chose a more dysfunctional level or just more distracting, then the connection is lost or not quite as strong.

I also believe very much that we have more than one Soul Mate and that circumstances as well as living conditions have ever so much to do in meeting them.

I didn't know the person who was right for me. I cast a spell asking Freya for someone with certain attributes such as high intelligence, soft skin, loves animals etc. Then met her by 'coincidence' two days later
