My twin flame story unfolds a bit differently than most. While many encounter their twin and then experience a spiritual awakening, mine happened in reverse. It was an overnight transformation, a sudden surge of awareness that arrived before I even knew what twin flames were.
Married with two children, I often felt a nagging sense of incompleteness, like a piece of my soul was missing. Was there someone out there, a true soulmate, waiting to be found? The uncertainty gnawed at me.
By April 2018, I had spiraled into a deep depression. I felt unseen, unheard, utterly disconnected from my purpose. The weight of this unknown purpose, this dormant potential, pressed down on me with suffocating force. My thoughts cycled endlessly, my body felt like a cage, and tears flowed unceasingly.
Suicidal thoughts crept in, dark whispers tempting me to surrender. But a fierce maternal instinct ignited within me. "No," I knew with unwavering certainty, "I need to be here for my children."
Reaching out to a long-lost friend, I received the lifeline I desperately needed. He urged me to become an observer of my own thoughts, to detach from the swirling chaos within. He recommended Eckhart Tolle's "The Power of Now," and I immediately immersed myself in its wisdom.
That night, something miraculous happened. I woke up transformed. It was as if a veil had lifted, revealing a vibrant, luminous reality. I felt awake, renewed, reborn.
This newfound clarity permeated my therapy sessions. After a few months of exploring this awakened perspective, my therapist suggested a meditation to illuminate the path ahead.
I found myself in a cave-like space, the walls a soft, fleshy pink, perhaps a representation of my own mind. Within this inner landscape, I saw a knot of tangled energy and, opposite it, a radiant light. It was a luminous sphere, yet it also resembled a flickering candle flame. Between them hovered a disc, a mirror that also functioned as a lens, reflecting and refracting their light.
"What's behind the knot?" I inquired, my voice echoing in the cavern.
"More light," my higher self responded.
"How do I untangle it?" I pressed.
"You'll see," was the enigmatic reply.
This was my initiation into the twin flame journey, though I wouldn't understand its significance for some time. A persistent message began to echo within me: "Meet new people, have new experiences." It wasn't a frantic command, but a gentle, insistent nudge from my soul, urging me to step out of my comfort zone and into the unknown.
It was time to emerge from the shelter of what I knew, the comfort zone that I was in, and embark on the next chapter of my soul's evolution.
