Twin flames are the mirror image of us. Often mistaken for our soul mate, here are 17 twin flame signs so you can recognize them.
Who out there wouldn’t love to believe that there is something called
a soul mate? A soul mate is someone who exists to make our lives
complete and absolutely perfect. Unlike a soul mate, a twin flame is a
person who is the perfect mirror reflection of ourselves. And the
typical twin flames signs are much different from soul mate ones, and
sometimes can be much more problematic.
17 twin flame signs that are different from a soul mate
Soul mates are supposed to be a perfect match for us, as if a special
force made one soul and split them apart to search for one another
eternally. Once found, a soul mate is supposed to make us feel whole
again. A twin mate, however, is a perfect mirror image of ourselves.
They are someone who shows us who we are, inspires us, challenges us,
and knows us like no one else ever has.
The problem?
Twin flames tend to be much more tumultuous, unpredictable, and
provide us with a much less feeling of wholeness and a much more intense
feeling of love and hate combined into one.
When you meet your twin flame, there are signs that are undeniable.
Being our mirror image, there is an odd feeling like you have met
before. Typically, that is because you have met every day of your life
when looking at your own reflection.
Although opposites attract, there is something real and
life-affirming about finding someone who thinks, acts, and loves, the
same way that you do. But, that doesn’t make for a peaceful union.
Sometimes twin flame relationships have a tendency to be very on or very
off. When things are good, they are the best you’ve ever had. When they
are bad, you almost wish that you hadn’t ever met.
The biggest mistake is when people make the mistake of thinking that
their twin flame is their soul mate. A twin flame is sent to us to
reveal things about ourselves we don’t already know by seeing it in
someone else.
Their job isn’t happily ever after, but rather to heal and mature
those things that are broken within us. So, when our soul mate does
appear, we are open and ready to love eternally as we were supposed to.
Here are some twin flame signs.
#1 You think they are the one you are supposed to be with.
But you can’t seem to make it work. Your twin flame feels so right that
you convince yourself that they most certainly have to be your soul
mate.
Having basically everything in common and seeing things from the same
perspective, you think you were made for one another. The problem is
that the twin flame is sent to you so that you can see who you are
inside.
A soul mate is your yin to their yang. A twin flame is a yang to your
yang which rarely works. Your twin flame is supposed to define what it
is that you need, not the one you need forever. It is just difficult to
know when you are in a twin flame relationship that it isn’t right. Your
heart is telling you one thing, but the fact that you can’t ever make
it right is telling you another.
#2 You have begun to see things in a completely different light more than ever before.
Never before have you been with someone who wholly believes in the same
things as you. It is an affirmation that everything you believe, feel,
and think is not only right, but shared.
Meeting your twin flame is like finally finding someone who validates everything you have always known and believed.
The problem is that just because someone agrees with you, that
doesn’t make it right. What it does do is strengthen who you are and
what you believe.
Being able to speak openly and honestly because you share the same
ideals, compassion, and opinions, your twin flame is a healthy way to
reaffirm those things that you presumed you knew.
#3 They bounce in and out of your life. Another one
of the twin flame signs is that you are either on the way in or the way
out. Despite the love you have for each other, there is one of you who
seems never to be able to handle the relationship or the intensity that
it elicits.
Being together is like standing too close to the sun, which makes one
of you ditch out for periods of time. When they have forgotten how
intense it was, they want back in, and so starts the whole cycle again.
#4 When you meet it is like finding “home.” The twin
flame is that person in your life who tends to come in and out when you
need them. When you first meet, the familiarity makes you flock toward
them like you have finally met the person who completes you.
Your connection is so intense it is like falling in love with you.
The twin flame is someone who provides feelings of home that you haven’t
ever experienced before. But, it is fleeting because the intensity
drives you away from each other.
#5 They feel like your other half. One of the big
twin flame signs is that they appear on the surface to be your other
half. But, what appears at first to be the completeness that you haven’t
had, is really just the failure of you to acknowledge the things about
them that you possess yourself, but haven’t recognized. They aren’t your
opposite.
In fact, they are your mirror. They have all the qualities that you
hadn’t ever seen in yourself. Which is why once you get to know who you
are, you realize that they aren’t your better half, they are just the
complete you.
#6 They create change in your life. Your twin flame
serves the purpose of pushing you to do the things that are right and
hard in your life. Marked by intensity, they are the often the catalyst
for change. Coming into and out of your life, there is typically a
reason.
Whether it is to convince you to make a move or to get you out of a
destructive relationship, they know you best and know what is best.
Hence, why they typically are the ones to push you in the right
direction for major changes that alter your overall plan.
#7 It is a whirlwind romance. Because you are
already so connected and feel so familiar with each other, one of the
twin flame signs is a quick-moving relationship. Since you feel like you
have been waiting around for this person your whole life, you throw
caution to the wind.
Not a whole lot of time needed to get to know each other, you jump in
head first, which makes your relationship very serious, very quickly.
It is love at first sight.
#8 You both trust and distrust them immensely. Although
you are filled with so much certainty that your relationship was meant
to be, there is a voice in the back of your head that is equally saying
something isn’t right. You find yourself constantly questioning your own
feelings and asking if your love is real or not. But, you aren’t quite
sure what is driving all the distrust.
#9 Your common sense flies out the window. You
haven’t ever been the person who chases a guy, or the guy who sticks
around to be yelled at. But suddenly, here you are in a relationship
letting someone do things, or doing things yourself, that you never
thought you were capable of.
One of the twin flame signs is the ability that the relationship has
to override your sense of sensibilities and allow emotions to overrule
what you believe yourself capable of.
#10 Although meant to be, you are never actually meant to be.
Although your love affair seems to be dreamy, it never comes at the
right time in your life, or there is always something standing in the
way of it working out.
The reason? One of the biggest twin flame signs is that you aren’t
meant to be together, so fate will always be working against you not
pushing you together.
#11 You are more than just a couple. Unlike the
other couples you see around you or other relationships, there is much
more to what you have. What you share goes beyond romance or sex. There
is a deep emotional connection, and the teaching that goes on surpasses
romantic feelings or sexual desires. In fact, so much so, that it seems
to override sex.
#12 You have a very tumultuous relationship. Because
you think it is your soul mate, but nothing ever seems to work out, and
you know in your heart that something isn’t right. One of the twin
flame signs is that you have a very emotional and tumultuous
relationship.
Your twin flame is the one who you are chasing around the house
demanding to be heard, because your feelings of love can be very intense
and painful.
Because they are sent to us to heal what is broken within, you find
yourself both pushing them away and pulling them in at the same time.
Not wanting to acknowledge your brokenness, you are confused by what you
are feeling, which can lead to a roller coaster ride.
#13 One of you is more spiritual or mature than the other.
Since one of the cornerstone twin flame signs is teaching one another,
there is usually one in the relationship who is more spiritual,
enlightened, or mature, and is around to help the other grow. That is
part of the reasons you are meant to be together.
#14 They are always pulling you back. No matter
where you are in life or who you are with, there is a continual pull
that you have to want to be near and with them. That is very
disheartening and can have you making poor decisions.
#15 You see something in their eyes. Eyes are the
window to the soul. What lies in your twin flame’s eyes is the answer to
the questions you have about yourself and who you are. That is why they
are so comforting and engaging. It is like meeting yourself in another
person, literally seeing you standing in front of you.
#16 You have things in common that are more than coincidence.
Since your twin flame is someone who is in your soul family, you will
have weird things about you that you share. Birthdays, physical
characteristics, or even the types of majors you choose, are
“coincidentally” mirrors.
#17 They bring out your biggest desires and your worst fears.
Another one of the twin flame signs is the purpose is to teach you who
you are inside and heal parts of you that you hadn’t known you needed to
heal. They are sent to open you up to your soul mate.
That gives them the ability to reveal to you both your biggest
desires and your worst fears. Part of the intensity is that they know
things about you that you don’t. Introducing you to you, is one of the
things that causes you the most distress.
Twin flames are souls that are sent to us that are exactly the mirror
of who we are. At first, their familiarity makes us feel like we have
finally found the one… our soul mate. Soon, we discover that they invoke
a different type of feeling in us.
Take heart; a twin flame appears to reveal to us what we are
ourselves, what we want, and to open our hearts to allow our soul mate
to present themselves, and for us to recognize them without any
distractions.
Now that you know the twin flame signs, remember that this
person allows us to know wholeheartedly who we are, what we want, and
that we have finally found someone to complete us… yourself.
