For as long as humans have wandered the earth, we have been fascinated by the mysteries of love and relationships. Love is as strong a force as any in the Universe and the acts of finding it, recognizing it and keeping it are driving forces for many. 

Non-romantic relationships are essential to our need to connect with others throughout our lives as well. What many people don’t recognize, though, is that some relationships are so spiritually unique that they standout among all the rest. Two of these types of relationships are soul mates and twin flames.

The term  soulmate gets thrown about casually on a regular basis, but the spiritually –minded know that this term should be reserved for a truly unique type of relationship between two people. Though it is commonly used to refer to lovers, the phenomenon of soul mates is not limited to romantic relationships. 

Friends, co-workers, and even pets and partners can all be deemed soul mates. The role of a soul mates is to each help the other learn some necessary lesson or truth in the course of their lifetime. You may have many soul mates over the course of your life.

The term “twin flames” is not as common, but in truth is closer to being what most people use the term “soul mates” to describe. The idea of twin flames has been around for since ancient times and has roots in many mystical traditions. 

Twin flames are a spiritual concept and are called the strongest spiritual connection that can occur between two people. Twin flames are believed to occur when a single soul is divided. This separation causes some to refer to your twin flame as being the other half of your soul, as you, in turn, are the other half to theirs. 

Others, however, say that each twin flame is a complete soul in and of itself but that it is a perfectly matched mirror to its counterpart. A twin flame will also be a soul mate, though a soul mate is not always a twin flame. You can only have one twin flame.

Many spiritual advisors believe that both soul mates and twin flames will meet across many lifetimes in order to help each other achieve their spiritual goals and learn needed lessons and truths. The extreme intensity of the twin flame relationship can cause it to be tumultuous and challenging at times, while soul mate relationships tend to progress and play out with less conflict and drama.
