The whole purpose to be on this earth plane is for your soul to evolve and go back to the light from which it came. In order to do this you must experience “Love” and let go of any fears. We are joined in from lifetime to lifetime by “helpers” with whom we refer to as “Soul mates”. There are two types of Soul mates: Companions and Karmic. I will explain those later. First we need to explain your soul’s purpose.

Imagine in your mind: God, The Creator as energy of LOVE… whatever you believe in. Imagine this as a huge Ball of energy/light. We begin our journey as being part of this energy/light. While we are part of this light we are joined by other energies or souls who have the same purpose as we do. That is to come back to the light and to learn about this Divine energy. Our purpose is to remember who we are... we are Love, we have God within us, and we are all one. We make agreements with these other souls before we separate from this light that we will go through certain lessons and learn from them and return to the light ONCE WE HAVE LEARNED. The agreements we make with other souls is that they will help us to achieve this goal. We all have the same goal. The difference is that different souls have different purposes! Twin Flames and Soul mates are very different from one another.

Soul Mates

Anyone already familiar with the concept of a soul mate is probably a bit of a romantic. Many people confuse soul mate relationships with Twin flame. There is a huge difference between the two. The difference between Twin Flames and Companion Soul mates and Karmic Soul mates is that Twin Flames are connected as one Spirit/divided to help one another reconnect. Companion Soul mates and Karmic Soul mates have their own “soul/spirit” and are here to “help” an individual soul with their path. The Path is The Path to Enlightenment. Edgar Cayce’s comment that if one did not have a soul mate -- whether twin soul, companion or karmic -- life would have no point.

A soul mate is a mirror and a mirror tends to reflect perfectly. What we see in another soul represents what we see in ourselves. For ultimately we have the same goal… to be love. 

Reincarnation recognizes three kinds of soul mates: Karmic, companion, and twin flames. The three kinds of soul mates allow for a rather impressive range of possibilities when two people are meeting again in this life. All of them serve in the development of the soul. 

Twin Flames

A twin flame is the mirror of who we are; the exact mirror of our body, mind and spirit. A twin flam is the person/soul that shares half of ourself. How I would explain this, is that we come from the light/ God/ The Creator, whatever you believe in. God is light, energy, love and when we come from God we are light. Imagine a light/a flame. We come from the light and then we separate again, this is our twin flame. Ultimately, our twin flame is part of who we are. Twin flames have the same “soul purpose” to work through lessons and return to the light together as one again. 

Often Twin Flames do not work on the physical plane together. Many times one of the twin flames exist on the spiritual plan and the other on the earth plane. Many of the twin flame relationships I see that do exist on this earth plane are ones in which one of the people/souls leaves the earth plane before the other. I have seen twin flames be marriages, significant others, family members and spirit guides. A friend of mine has known her twin flame since she has been a child. When she was a child, she would refer to “Danny” as her friend who helps her to be happy in life. Her family thought of “Danny” as her imaginary friend. Danny has spoken to my friend and helped her through some tough times in her life. But Danny and my friends purpose remains the same. They are working together to return to the Light or The Love state TOGETHER. 

Companion Soul Mates

A companion soul mate is one that makes an agreement to help us in the lifetime that helps us to learn lessons. Many are project-oriented, well-mated, often have similar physical features, and who are extremely compatible. But the joining of companion soul mates, unlike the twin flames, does not necessarily signify a permanent relationship. In many cases, once a project is completed, there may be no further need for the relationship and the togetherness vanishes. Companion soul mates are not necessarily marriage partners. While it is true that the soul mate condition may have been established by shared physical experiences over a long period, the relationship is often more than just physical attraction. There exists the capacity to help each other at the mental, as well as, the physical level.
Companion soul mates may include: coworkers, family members, friends and acquaintances we meet for short periods of time that help us along our path. Many “Companion Soul mates” help us to learn lessons while we are working through certain issues in our lifetime. They often “show up” in our life and then move on when they serve their purpose. Ultimately, they are helpers/teachers in our lives as we are to them. They make contracts with us before we come to this earth plane. For example, if one of your lessons in this lifetime is to learn forgiveness a companion soul mate may be a person who does something to you that you might have to forgive or they can be the counselor helping you work through it. 

Karmic Soul Mates

The third form of a soul mate is the karmic soul mate. These are people with whom we come back together with in order to work through issues that we have been through in previous lifetimes and not worked through. Often, the people whom we feel most frustrated with are considered Karmic Soul mates and they are also people whom we have this inner need for and don’t always respond the way we think we might want them to. In knowing these soul mates, the important lesson is that they are doing exactly what they are supposed to be doing in order for us to learn the lesson. Once we know the purpose for meeting Karmic soul mates, it makes it easier to understand the intense feelings we have. 

Here is an example of a Karmic Soul mate: Do you have someone in your life who gives you a STRONG feeling inside of a need or perhaps someone whom you feel you have unfinished business with? This is a Karmic soul mate. One important thing to remember about Karmic Soul mates is if you do not find closure or work through the lesson with them in this lifetime, then you will repeat it in another lifetime and/or repeat it during this lifetime. It may even be something like feeling angry that this person lied to you or cheated you in this lifetime. If you did a regression you would take notice that they did the same thing and you did not find peace with them. In this lifetime, it will be part of your lesson to forgive them and let go in order to move forward. Again, the whole purpose to be on this earth plane is for your soul to evolve and go back to the light from which it came. In order to do this you must experience “Love” and let go of any fears. 

YES, COMPANION SOULMATES CAN TURN INTO KARMIC SOULMATES if you don’t allow them to help you two grow.

Questions:
- Is there any reason to have soul mates?
- Is the concept of a soul mate an essential ingredient in reincarnation and/or karma?
- Is the idea just a romantic convenience, or is there something more?
- How do I know if I have met my Companion, Karmic or Twin Flame?
