When you finally meet your twin flame, the Earth beneath your feet shifts.

The meeting of two mirror souls is like an existential earthquake: you instantly sense that an exceedingly important person has come into your life and you instantly feel that your life is going to change in a way that’s unclear to you, yet you know that change would be so great.

Meeting one’s mirror soul can happen to anyone. Though this gift is not openly or obviously received due to certain factors like stress, overwork, lifestyle habits, negative thought patterns, and low self-esteem. These factors reduce your receptiveness to recognize your twin flame’s immediate presence.

Thus, it’s important to identify the major twin flame signs that you may have experienced or is about to experience. Their appearance is always a mystery and rarely predicted though, however, there are still some sure subtle signs.

Before going further, for the benefit of those not yet familiar with Twin flame or mirror soul, let’s get to know first what are they.

What is a Twin Flame?

A twin flame or mirror soul is a person you are destined to feel connected to on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level. This person serves as your ultimate friend, lover, or teacher in your life.

Twin flames are a catalyst for your spiritual growth.

They mirror your deepest desires, needs, and fears. They reflect back to you all your inner shadows, as well as your deepest beauty and greatest strength. And they help you access your enormous emotional, psychological, and spiritual potential.

Twin flames could also be considered as mirror souls because of the way they reflect your deepest needs, desires, dreams, and shadow elements of souls.

What’s the difference between a Twin Flame and a Soul Mate?

Soul Mates are not always romantic nor heterosexual connections.They’re not always the romantic partners of the same sex and most times are your platonic friends or family members.

However, Twin Flames are Soul Mates destined to be your romantic partners. Even though some relationships might not be romantic in nature, they have a strong tendency and predisposition to become one.

Meeting with a twin flame is exciting. However, it may sometimes result in a needy romanticized projection which means one points an idealized image onto the other.

When this act is not reciprocated or welcomed, the other one gets disillusioned. Suffering from a low self-esteem and lack of self-love could also lead someone for a needy acceptance from the other. Hence, one must be careful not to fall trap in infatuation or idolization.

Twin flames tend to appear in whatever stages you are in your life. You must then be receptive and conscious of the people you surround yourself with.
