Questions About Twin Flames And Soul Families?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Mariner2Mother. These questions were stimulated by our post: Do We Have To Unite With Our Twin Flame To Spiritually Ascend, Or With Our Multidimensional Self?

M2M: I’ve got a question, since you so clearly defined what a soulmate and a twin flame are in a previous post. During a healing session, spirit told me my abusive brother is my twin flame, and I could see we shared a soul. I already knew that as souls we have a great love for each other.

Council: We’d like to say at this point that your brother is not a twin flame. As we’ve explained in another post, the twin flame is you. It’s the mirror image you create for yourself in whatever reality you choose, but you and your brother have had many other lifetimes together. The feeling of camaraderie, problems, chaos, and happiness you experience with your brother, you’ve done many times before.

And so you choose to come back into your current reality with your brother this time. It’s a feeling of, “Let’s see what we create this time. We’ve been together and we’ve enjoyed it, and we’ve always learned. And so we’ll be together in our current life also.”

Bob: Apparently Mariner2Mother is under the impression from a healing session she had that her brother is her twin flame, which means that her brother has the same spirit as she has. And you’re saying that from your point of view you don’t see…

Council: He is another spirit that’s agreed to come, for all the reasons they wanted to come into their current lifetime, but it’s another soul. It’s not the twin mirror of herself.

M2M: Can you define what a soul family is for me?

Council: A soul family is many souls that come together, that work quite often in each other’s reality. But it’s also possible to jump from a group of souls that are different from the ones you’re used to working with. So you can jump from soul family to soul family if you need to learn something and these other souls are available and want to be part of it with you.

It’s wonderful that you have the ability to work with whoever you want, whatever spirit you want, in each lifetime. You have the ability to work with your familiar spirit energies. You have the ability to jump and work with spirits that you haven’t worked with before. You have the ability to become an animal if you wish. You have the ability to come into a reality as an extraterrestrial. You have the ability to go to other dimensions. It’s limitless what you can do. There are no rules.

M2M: I have a sense that a soul family is a group of souls meant to play out all sorts of scenarios together over several lifetimes.

Council: Yes, they do.

M2M: For instance, I’ve been told that my son and I have had a lifetime together when he was my mother and I was his son. Once I stepped onto my healing path I met a few women whose stories resonate with mine quite a bit and they feel like kindred spirits.

Council: And so you’ve worked with them before and you may feel that there’s a familiarity. There’s a reason that you may all be going through the same thing and are there coming together now to help each other through it. It’s support, and it’s learning, and it’s having fun.

Bob: Do you agree with Mariner2Mother that she’s had a lifetime where her current son was her mother and she was her son?

Council: Several times. There’s been a back-and-forth. They have been neighbors, cousins, teachers, and lovers. And so they share many, many lifetimes.

M2M: Would they be part of my soul family?

Bob: Meaning her son and these women whose stories resonate with her.

Council: We’d say, yes, because there are many, many lifetimes where you’ve come together.

M2M: Do we incarnate with one primary soul family for possibly hundreds or thousands of incarnations that might include being human, animal, or even some sort of star being?

Council: Yes, yes, and yes.

M2M: When might the members of our soul family change, as in entering or leaving the group?

Council: We teach that you are the creator of your life. So whether you create in one reality or another, or whether you create what goes on in spirit, you can always leave and you can come back, but there’s no separation. In spirit we’re all one. We’re all together. And so, in reality, when you understand about spirit, we’re all one large family.

Bob: Can you give us an analogy that explains the idea of soul families compared to the one large family of spirit?

Council: It’s a group of people. Some groups are very small and some are very large. It’s just a feeling of wanting to be together again and working well with each other in each reality, whether you’re both animals, or aliens, or humans. And so there’s a wanting to grow together because as one person in the family grows, everyone grows with them, even if what they experience are very different.

And so there’s a feeling that you bring in from the human reality that we like to be with these spirits, but that’s something you understand on a physical level and on a human level. But in spirit we don’t think, “Oh you come from that family, I come from this family.” We are all one. The perspective of how you look at it is totally different. In your reality now, it’s comforting to know that you have one family that goes around from life, to life, to life.

Bob: So it sounds like you’re saying that the idea of a soul family is more from a human perspective…

Council: Yes.

Bob: …whereas from a spiritual perspective it’s all one large family.

Council: But yet, we say there are many, many souls that just love coming together lifetime after lifetime no matter what you create. And so instead of it being spirit saying, “Let’s do it again, this is wonderful.” In the human reality one likes to think, “Oh, I’m with my family again,” when in reality all is one.

Bob: You mention larger and smaller soul families. Can you give us an idea of how many souls are in a large soul family?

Council: It’s limitless – as large as one would want to experience. Or you can have twenty people that you say, “Oh, for the next twenty lifetimes let’s just work together.” It’s the perspective. It’s what you want to do. But there’s love among every single soul and the connection is there, and you know that when you’re in spirit. You’re learning that when you’re in the physical.

Have I Met The Person I’ll Marry After My Husband Passed?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Momof3, and is in response to our post, Do I Have A Twin Flame, Not A Soulmate?

Momof3: This topic of twin flames and soulmates has been something that’s intrigued me. I’ve often wondered if my late husband is my twin flame or soulmate. I was inseparable from him, but he passed away. I still feel connected with him spiritually and energetically, and it overwhelms me sometimes.

Council: Of course you’re still connected. Just because someone passes into spirit and one is back in the physical reality, there’s no break in the connection.

And so you want to know if this was your soulmate. We’d say, yes, because this soul and you have chosen each other as mates in this particular lifetime. Any two people that come together are soul mates. You decide to spend this life together, or part of this life together, and work things out together. And so you are mates.

We realize many in the physical world think there’s something wonderful, that they must find the one, the soulmate. Anyone you have a relationship with is a soul that’s mated to you for whatever length of time you decide. And so we’d say, yes, and enjoy that, and enjoy the connection you still have with your husband.

Bob: In a recent post you clarified the difference between the terms, twin flame and soulmate.

Council: Yes. This relationship with her husband was not a twin flame. He was another spirit.

Momof3: I’m sure we had a soul contract or past lives together, or maybe I’m just believing these things to have answers and cope with losing him.

Council: The soul contract you speak of is just an agreement that we’ll go into the physical reality and this is what we plan.

Momof3: But since my husband passed, I’ve met other men and had relationships, and I also feel connected to those men. I guess they’ve all come into my life to teach me something. Are they all my soulmates also, or is there just one?

Council: They are soulmates also. They’ve come in to give you the feeling of love that you feel you’ve lost with your husband passing on. And so it’s just a way to experience love. Different ways are available with different people, and that is all agreed upon.

Momof3: I was told that my late husband wasn’t the one I’d spend my life with and that my true soulmate or twin flame would come after him.

Council: There’s such an emphasis in your reality about this true soulmate. We’ll say again, anyone that you’re in a relationship with is a soulmate. So yes, it’s true you didn’t spend this entire reality with your husband. There will be others. There will be as many as you wish to create. You can get tired of creating many other mates, and then you may create the one that fills your desire for what you want a soulmate to be. And that’s how it works.

Momof3: Of course I never thought that would be true and I’d lose him.

Council: Nothing has been lost. It’s important to remember that. The connection is there and you can still speak to your husband and he’ll speak to you. You only need to be quiet and to believe, and you’ll see the answers.

Momof3: I wonder if I’ve met this person I’d marry now.

Council: We don’t see that yet. And yet if someone comes along and you really want this person to be your forever partner, you can create it that way. It’s so important to remember that you are the creator.

So as you go about your life and the people you pull in to meet, see which one fits perfectly to what you want. And then you’ll create that reality that you’ll be together, and how long you’ll be together.

Momof3: I’ve had a love relationship that recently ended, and I’m trying not to get involved in another one too soon.

Council: It’s all up to you.

Momof3: But I feel like there are connections with people I meet. In particular, there’s a man I’m dating, I’ll call him, J, but I don’t want to make the same mistakes of past relationships.

Council: There’s no rush. Take your time. Enjoy this relationship. See it the way you want it. Focus on the way you want it to be, and that is what you’ll create.

Momof3: I do believe all these friendships and meetings are to teach me something and help me heal, and for me to help J, as well.

Council: It’s to teach you that you are the creator.

Momof3: In helping J, I feel healing, but I feel that I’m searching for my soulmate and I feel incomplete.

Council: That’s because of the belief you have. So now remember that anyone who comes into your life can fit the bill of being your soulmate. And while no one is perfect, whoever comes into your life, there’s always some sort of agreement, I will teach you this, you will teach me that. We’ll go through certain things.

And so, do not expect the perfect soulmate to be a perfect physical human being. That’s not what you’re here for.

Bob: How would you address this feeling that Momof3 has about feeling incomplete?

Council: Because many come into this reality with the belief – and they are here to change this belief – that they are not complete, that you have to have the soulmate to be complete, that you have to have the twin soul to be complete. That isn’t true. You are complete. You are everything that you have ever been in every life. Every answer that you need to every question is within you.

The way to create whatever it is that you want in this life is up to you. You can change it day by day by what you want. And just by focusing on it the life around you will change. It’s all up to you. No one will come along and do it. It’s all up to you.

Bob: So it sounds like you’re saying that the feeling Momof3 has that she’s incomplete comes from a belief that she needs someone outside of herself to complete her. And it sounds like you’re suggesting that’s not true.

Council: Exactly.

Momof3: Then there’s my oldest son. We’re so alike, but we also butt heads a lot. I feel like he hates me and loves me, and it’s a difficult relationship. Is he from my past lives? And does he have to work out things with me from these past lives?

Council: Yes, you know your son from before, but what’s going on now is that you’re here to learn that you have given birth to this soul. You have agreed to bring this soul into this reality. You’ve only agreed to give him entry. You do not control him. You don’t own him. You’re here to watch how he grows, to learn from what he goes through, and to be as understanding as you can.

The way to love him is to let him be himself. Yes, there are times your child will hate you. There are times your child will love you. But when you show love and you allow this child to be whatever he needs to be, and to work on whatever he needs to work on, it will all turn around. And because you show love and acceptance, you’ll receive that same love and acceptance.

Momof3: How can I have a loving relationship with him, or do I just let him be and concentrate on myself?

Council: Of course let him be, but show him love. Show him when you’re disappointed, when you feel maybe his actions are hurtful, but allow him to be. And whenever he does something you don’t approve of, we would end the conversation with the words: I love you, and I’ll allow you to go through whatever you need to go through. Those words will change so much.

Have patience. Just remember you’re not here to control. You’re not here to boss this person around and have things done the way you want. Watch him with curiosity. What is he learning? What is he going through? And what am I learning from it? There’s great growth on both parts when you can look at things this way. And all will be well.

Momof3: Maybe I’m just trying to find answers to feelings and emotions I feel towards men that I can’t explain. Maybe it’s just me being lonely and simply wanting to be loved and to love like it was with my husband. But I feel lost and confused, and I feel like I’m constantly searching for my other half.

Council: You are your other half. What we wish you to do now is to focus on what it is that you want, and know that you can have this.

Momof3: I try to hold back my emotions and feelings because I know I’m vulnerable and just looking to be loved like I was with my husband.

Council: And so your thoughts would be: I am strong. I am a creator. I had a wonderful time with this person that was my husband and I want more of it. And so now I’ll create it. Now I’ll bring someone else in.

You are not lost. You are not a victim. You are now a creator. Think of what we just said, how the feeling is so much different from the way you think about your situation. Come from a place of power and know you can do this.

Momof3: But it’s difficult because I feel when I don’t listen to my heart and emotions, I feel anxious, unbalanced, and overwhelmed.

I’d love to know if I’ve already met the person I was told I’d eventually marry, and who it is, or his name.

Council: You have not finished creating yet.

Momof3: Or if that was something just made up.

Council: We ask you to focus. Do not go so much from what others tell you, but know yourself. We can say over and over again, you are the creator. Picture it. Feel the way you want your life to be. Picture yourself married again and having a wonderful life. See it. Every time you can, see it and feel it, and it has to come to you. But you must take this place of power and understanding of who you really are and make this happen, because you can.

Is The Man I Met My Romantic Soulmate?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Adrian.

Adrian: I’ve met a man and there are all these signs he may be someone very special to me. During our first kiss, two dragonflies flew into his house.

Council: Isn’t that magical and lovely?

Adrian: I’ve known him about a week and hate to prematurely jump in before really knowing him, but there are all these strange signs and they are almost bizarre in nature.

Council: And we do want to say here, you do realize you are creating these signs. You’re creating them to give you comfort, to show you what direction to go in, and to make you feel that you have support from another reality. You have the idea that this is the person, but you’ll create the relationship you want whether you had these signs or not. It’s wonderful and very playful and very creative the way you’re bringing this relationship in. Isn’t it fun?

Adrian: For example, I programmed his name into my phone. At first I only had his first name, Bobby. Then once I put in his last name, the phone decided to call him, The Abraham Group all on its own. And my phone also decided to program his email address as your email address for this blog. We had a good laugh about that.

Council: Do you see how wonderful and creative you are to bring joy in such a funny way, and of bringing closeness to the two of you at this stage of the relationship?

Adrian: Today I got curious and looked up your email address on the internet, found your website, and I couldn’t believe you talk about Abraham and Esther Hicks, whose work I’m familiar with, and that your site is connected to a galactic council.

Council: This is another connection that you’ve created.

Adrian: I’m dumbfounded and awestruck all at the same time.

Council: Pat yourself on the back for this.

Adrian: Is this man as special to me as I think he may be based on all these signs?

Council: Well we’d certainly think that you have gone through all this creativity to give you the signs that, yes, you can have a wonderful relationship. It’s still always up to you.

Adrian: Can I really trust this?

Council: Ahh, can you really trust yourself? Can you trust what you focus on and remove the doubts? Then you’ll see what you can create.

Adrian: What does all of this mean?

Council: It means you’re having a wonderful time, that you’re so connected to your higher self, that you’re enjoying this relationship, and that it’s something you wanted to do, and you’ve done it. Look at the immense things that you’ve had happen within that short period of time. That should take away all of your doubt.

And so we say keep creating. Have fun with this relationship. And you’ll both feel closer to your higher self. You’ll both be able to stay in that vibration of joy. And when you’re in that vibration of joy, put on your seatbelts. There’s nothing you can’t create. And we say again, nothing. So have fun.

Adrian: I’m getting divorced and I’ve asked for my romantic soulmate to come in at the right time. I only recently decided to date, thinking that while I’m not really ready (my divorce is still in its early stages), it felt like time to meet someone nice for this moment. But I honestly didn’t expect to meet my soulmate now. Is this man my romantic soulmate that I’ve been calling in?

Council: Well it looks that way to us. We see this beautiful future that you have in mind that you would like with this person, but we can’t make that happen. You have to decide if this person is for you. No one can tell you if this is your soulmate because there are many souls that are around saying, “Well we’ll jump in if you don’t want this one or that one.”

So you decide. Do you want this person? Do you want this relationship? Do you want to go forward with this? And you will create it. Look at the power of what you’ve created already.

So there’s nothing, as we say, written in stone. If this is what you want, and if you stay in the vibration of joy and you create it in your mind, you will have it.

Adrian: Can I trust this?

Council: Can you trust yourself? There’s no one else that’s going to make it happen. There’s no magic from somewhere else that you need to tap into. You are the magic. You are the focus. You are the creator. And when you doubt, just look at what you’ve told us you’ve created already.

Adrian: I will say, after three great dates now, that I feel really good around him. He feels really familiar and comfortable to me – like home. Any guidance would be so greatly appreciated. I guess I’m having a hard time believing the unbelievable at the moment.

Council: And that is where the problem is, having a hard time believing.

So you’ll work on this. You’ll focus on visualizing exactly what you want. And if it doesn’t go in the direction you want, ask yourself, what have I been thinking? What have I been feeling? Because your thoughts will create what you feel. How you feel goes out and creates what you want. So if you start having anxiety that maybe this isn’t the person, that anxiety will go out there and interfere.

So we suggest you go into the thoughts of: This is wonderful. Yes, this is what I want. I feel great. That feeling great will help you create what you desire.

Listen to the entire 8-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Adrian and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it. You can also ask The Council your own question by typing it into one of the Comment boxes that appear at the bottom of most of our blog pages.

Do I Have A Twin Flame, Not A Soulmate?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Bluestar Child.

BSC: I would like to ask The Council if I have a twin flame, and I don’t mean a soulmate?

Council: Ahh, here we go again. In your reality so many have decided to bring in this twin flame or this soulmate. This can be difficult for you to understand, but we’ll put it out there in as gentle and simple a way as we can.

We were all created at the same time. There are no new souls. There are souls that are new by creating your current reality*. And so this twin soul that you’re looking for…

Bob: Twin flame?

Council: The twin flame that you’re looking for is you. You are the twin flame, the twin soul. When you meet this person you say, “Is this my twin flame because I look at this person and I feel so connected? We like so many of the same things. We say the same words. We understand the same things.”

It’s because this person is you in another form. This person is a mirror that’s reflecting part of yourself back to you. Isn’t that interesting?

BSC: What spiritual contract did I have with George, a boy I studied with at university? Was he my twin flame, or was he just another soulmate in my life?

Council: He was just another soulmate. You had a connection way back in Lemuria where you worked together, working with energy, working with crystals, working with the environment, and working with plants. And we see here in that particular life there was a great friendship between the two of you. And so you’ve come back together in your current life to meet, to recognize each other on a higher level, and to have a greater understanding of some particular things in this reality. And so there should be comfort in that relationship, but it’s another soul.

BSC: If I have a twin flame, but it’s not this boy, George, is my twin flame incarnated on another planet (for example, in the Plieades, where I come from, or another dimension), or is he in my current incarnation?

Council: This twin flame, as we’ve said, is you. And so when you meet someone, and you can meet many people in this reality and think, this is my twin flame, because each part of you will be reflected back to you in different ways, but you’ll feel the connection. You are connecting to another part of you that wishes to give you comfort and show you another way to handle things. It’s you teaching you how to be. And it’s wonderful because you’re just relying on you.

BSC: If he is incarnated now, have I met him? Or do I have to meet him in this life?

Council: There will be a meeting. What we see, what is planned, quite soon you’ll meet this part of you.

Bob: So Bluestar Child will meet a man who she’ll consider a twin flame?

Council: In her current reality there’s a spirit that will appear in her current life that will be considered, because of the connection which will be felt, would be considered a twin flame. It hasn’t happened yet.

*Note: It’s not clear to Cynthia and me what The Council means when they say, “We’re all created at the same time. There are no new souls. There are souls that are new by creating your current reality.” We intend to ask The Council for clarification on these points and either publish them soon in a new post, or we’ll update the current post to make their ideas more clear. Thanks for your patience.

Listen to the entire 6-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Bluestar Child and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel about it. You can also ask The Council your own question by typing it into one of the Comment boxes that appear at the bottom of most of our blog pages.

Should I Hope To Be Contacted By This Guy?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, T. Franks, who asks about love and finding their soulmate. She says, I’m in my mid-20s and dreamed of finding my Prince Charming since I was a little girl. I’ve learned so many lessons in this lifetime and I’ve found unconditional love with members of my family with whom I’d previously not gotten along. I’ve dated a number of men, but we never shared that soul connection and I’ve never been in love. I want to experience the feeling of being in love with someone who is my soulmate.

The Council says when you date someone, whether your expectations are very high or it’s just a few dates, that is a soul connection. It’s two souls that have come together, whether for a short time or a long time. It’s a good idea to look at each of these relationships and find what’s good in each one of them. How did it make you feel? Being grateful for what you like you can create more and more love.

T. Franks says, recently my mother connected with someone who has a son my age who lives near me and he seems perfect on paper. It’s over a week and I’ve still not heard from him. I understand things are crazy with COVID, but I wonder if I should hold out hope or if the son won’t be contacting me and I should just move on.

The Council feels your thoughts about love and other people stepping in to help you make a connection are a little desperate. It’s like you think who’s going to step in and help you find true love. Be at ease with yourself. When you want something, ask for it, look for it, and you practice knowing this thing is coming to you. It will come easier than if you think you want to find your soul connection and have a parent’s friend step in. We understand these people are trying to be helpful, but the vibration is the wrong vibration to bring to you what you want.

The Council says looking at what was pre-planned before coming into this reality, this man also has different needs that he wants to be met. It’s a way where you can come together. We don’t see this relationship lasting a long time, but it’s just to bring in the vibration of having someone to speak with and to join with for a while. We see you pre-planned in spirit to be transitions for each other.

You planned to stimulate within each other what you’d call the vibration of true love or true romance by just being friends. We don’t see this relationship as one you have planned for the long term. It was just for you two to come in and sort of push each other through something by having a connection and wanting more. We don’t see this man as your Prince Charming.

T. Franks says dating is really difficult these days because I don’t participate in the hookup culture and online dating apps. I don’t want to be 40 years old when I finally find my Prince Charming.

To this, The Council asks why not? When you create true love you create it on your own terms. It doesn’t matter if you’re 15, 20, 30, 40, or 70. When you finally find the person you’re able to have a love relationship with, what does it matter how old you are? This is what you need to look at. You need to feel grateful that love is there for you. Sooner or later, as you keep positive thoughts about this love, you will have it. Would you rather not have true love at 40 and not have it at all. Or have it at 40 and go through the rest of your reality with it?

The Council advises T. Franks to appreciate the love she has with her family. Appreciate anything you can build on with this man you’re hoping to meet. Look around yourself to friends and anyone you feel a comfortable and supportive relationship with. As you appreciate that and ask for more, it will come.

There is a long term relationship that you pre-planned in spirit. We don’t want to give it away because your homework is to just appreciate the love you have around you from family, from co-workers, from friends, wherever you feel it. Even if you have a pet that you show love to and feel it back. Appreciate that. Appreciation will bring you what you want.

Listen to the entire 7-minute audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for T. Franks and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it, or ask The Council your own question.

Is My Current Relationship with My Soul-Contracted Life Partner?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Eleanor, who grew up in an abusive home and began the long process of recovery as soon as she left. It’s been a journey of estrangement,  homelessness, fragile mental health, and difficulty finding work, but I’ve come a long way. This journey has included steep learning curves in relationships and despite 26 years of failed relationships, my heart always told me I have a soul-contracted life partner or husband in my future.

The Council says many people get hung up on the concept of a soul contract. What you do in spirit is, as you’re choosing what you’d like to create in your current lifetime there are many souls that come forward and volunteer to be in this lifetime with you. You have a mother that volunteers, a father, friends, people that stay in your life for a short time, and people that stay in your life for a long time,

There’s never just one particular soul you make a contract with. You have a soul that comes forward and says I will come into your life and we’ll have a relationship for a time and then we’ll go our separate ways. You’ll learn from this relationship and I’ll learn from it. You pick the lessons you’d like to work on, then you’d go to another relationship and learn something different.

It’s not that you’ve failed because you’re unable to find this one particular relationship that you have a soul contract with. You’ve agreed with other souls to experience part of this life together. When you feel you’ve learned what you wanted to, then there’ll be someone that will come into your life and we’ll do the rest of our life together and learn other lessons together. You’re on the right track, but don’t always focus on where your single, contracted soulmate is, There was a contract with everyone you’ve had a relationship with.

Focus on each relationship you’ve gone through. What have you learned? What would you do differently? When you understand this and can act differently in a new relationship, taking what you’ve learned and not repeating it if it was negative, or bringing more love into a new relationship, you’ll create the relationship with the person who said, in spirit, they’d come into your life when you’re both ready.

Eleanor says 3½ years ago my partner at that time abandoned me when I had cancer. I vowed I’d work on myself so hard that my next relationship would be with my soul contracted life partner. The Council says each person you’ve been in a relationship with was a soul contract you made to be with that particular person for that particular time.

Eleanor says this summer a friend of a friend came into my life. To my surprise our lives mirrored. We had a lot in common and the union was surrounded by synchronicity. Again The Council asks what have you learned? What does it mean to have something in common with this person? Was this person a mirror image for you? What have you learned from this person’s experience that’s similar to your own?

Eleanor says this person has a pattern of leaving me and then coming back, which takes a huge toll on me. We’re currently separated and I’m taking stock. Is this my soul contracted life partner? The Council says he is a soul contracted partner and how you move forward to make this a permanent relationship or not is by reviewing all your relationships and what you’re learning from them. Is this relationship something you’ve created before and are creating again? Or are you in a more positive place and can you focus on what you can bring into this relationship? It’s how you look at this relationship and what you’ve learned that will guide your next step.

You’ve talked about relationships that didn’t last. In your most recent relationship this person has come to you as a mirror. It’s wonderful to have so much in common with this soul, but the lesson of abandonment is still there for you. You can take what you love from this relationship and move forward because you don’t want to keep experiencing this lesson of abandonment with this person or anyone new.

Take what you’ve learned with this person and put it in your focus going forward that you’d like these traits and these experiences with a person that could be permanent in your life. When you think of your situation this way you can decide whether to stay in this relationship and just change your focus and try to get this person to behave differently. Or you can decide this relationship was fun and I learned enough, but I want someone new to go forward with. You are the creator.

Eleanor finishes by asking at what point in my life can I expect my life partner to appear? The Council says when you do the inner work that lets this person appear. We can’t give you a time. We don’t know ahead of time what you’ll create. We can see the path you’re on and where it’s going, but you’re the creator and you’ll learn from your lessons.

Why Am I With My Husband Rather Than the Love of My Life?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Confused, who says her soulmate (who’s the love of her life) lives in another country and I’m unable to be with him. I don’t understand why I’d choose this separation when there’s no one I’d rather be with and would have been ecstatic to spend my life with him.

The Council says you planned in spirit to experience the feeling of having this love of your life, and then be given a chance to work through this to see there’s not just one soul you can have this kind of relationship with. You planned to let go of the belief you can have only one love. There are many souls that will come in and out of your life. If you allow it to happen, there’s another person that will come into your life and fill this loving role.

You want to see there’s always a way to change what you’re going through. There’s always a way to create love in your life in any way you need it. Work through this belief you have only one love and you’re life is stuck because you can’t be with this person. Release these unhappy thoughts there isn’t any joy in your life or other love for you. You created this situation to experience the change you’re able to make in your life if you’re open to it.

Confused says she’s married, but I have little in common with my husband, and I don’t want to break up my family. The Council says you don’t always need a lot in common with your spouse. You’re together to see what you have in common and what you don’t have in common, to see what this other soul is like and what he’s capable of. Are you willing to help your husband advance in this lifetime? Are you willing to show love to your husband and allow yourself to feel the love in return? That’s your purpose for being together.

Bob asks if Confused can have a loving relationship with her husband similar to the love of her life. The Council says if you go through life thinking your soulmate is far away, I can’t be with him, I have to settle for something less, then how you see your life and your beliefs about your relationships would never allow this to happen.

The Council says they don’t know what Confused is going to create as she goes through this lifetime. It was spiritually planned to be married to her husband and maybe not see her marriage as the love of her life. But when she understands it’s not possible to be with her love, can she have the faith and trust to let him go and give her husband a chance. Or if that isn’t possible because of Confused’s beliefs, then she can create something new. Variety is an important aspect of learning how to create. You aren’t stuck here in an unhappy marriage. With your thoughts and beliefs it’s possible to change what you think a marriage is into something you’d like it to be.

The Council says Confused chose both to be with her husband and to experience the man in the foreign country as the love of her life even though she couldn’t be with him.

Confused says she wants to share her next life with her true love without any complications. The Council says if you want to create a new life with this man you feel is the love of your current life, and if that soul is open to this, you’ll create it.

The Council says Confused’s purpose in her current life is to be in her marriage where she doesn’t feel her husband is the love of her life. The purpose is to look differently at your husband and see what this soul is really all about. Give this person a chance to grow. Be there for your husband.

The purpose you chose for this lifetime was to meet one person who you believe is the love of your life, but to have a husband who’s already in your life, and see just how wonderful your marriage can be if you give it a chance and see your husband differently. Feel gratitude for having your husband in your life. Realize you’ve chosen this, whether you believe it or not, or whether you think it makes you happy or not.

How can you send love to your husband? How can you change the way you feel about your husband by looking at him through the eyes of love? You are souls that have come together to experience this life together and see where that takes you.

Listen to the entire audio recording of our session with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Confused and the rest of us and let us know what you feel about it, or ask your own question.

The New Truth About Twin Flames, Twin Souls, and Soulmates

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named, Michelle, who has questions about a possible twin flame she’s heard of, but never met. This person has passed on and she hadn’t thought of them for years, but when she was at one of her lowest points he popped into her head and she started having dreams about him. She’s asked the universe for signs that he’s her twin flame and has received them, but at the same time this seems too fantastic for Michelle to believe. She also began to develop some kind of sensitivity.

The Council says Michelle has created a relationship with this soul to help her grow, and while she didn’t know him in her physical reality, she knows him as a soul from other lifetimes. You and this soul agreed in your pre-birth planning that this soul would come into your life when you were ready to look at life differently.

To answer Michelle’s question about whether this soul is her twin flame, The Council says they’d like to take our understanding of twin souls (or twin flames, or soulmates) to the next level even though many people may not understand this. They say people are all excited about meeting their twin soul and they feel they have to be with this person or their life will fall apart. They believe there must have been a pre-birth plan for them to be with this person.

The Council asks you to consider that there are many realities that you’re creating all at the same time. There are many different worlds. There are galaxies and planets. There are what you believe are past lives and future lives. And in all these different lives, why would you believe you need to be with this one twin flame or soulmate to grow?

The way it’s created now, everybody believes they have their soulmate someplace and they hope they’ll meet them in this lifetime. The role that this twin flame or soulmate would play would be to come into your life and work with you. You would support each other and you would both grow.

The Council asks if you think you came into this reality to give all your power to another person or to another soul. Do you think you can’t grow or you can’t be whole unless you connect with this twin flame? You are here to discover who you are. You are here to discover that you are powerful. All your answers are within you. You have the high vibration that you’re looking for in a twin flame. You don’t need to connect with anyone else to find your power and begin to understand who you are. And yet many feel their life isn’t complete unless they meet with this soulmate, twin flame, or twin soul.

The Council says to meditate on what they’re saying about twin flames if you’re at a place where you can understand it, and it will help you grow beyond where you are now. The twin soul you’re looking for is you. You are the twin soul in all your other realities that you’ve created – all the other yous that exist and are playing out in other lifetimes. What you want to do is connect with all these yous in the realities you’ve created to have the knowledge, the love, and of the power within the larger you. You’re not supposed to connect with someone else that you think of as a twin flame.

Yes, you can have agreements with other people to come into your life and help you on your path and support each other, but you are the twin soul with the power to make your life whole. It’s not anyone else.

When you receive information from another soul it’s to help you where you are in your life. Some people need to know there is this twin soul that they’re looking for and feel a closeness to. You feel this closeness because you’ve had other lifetimes with this soul. So many people are miserable and totally destroyed because they can’t find this other twin soul. When you believe you’ve found your twin soul it helps you to feel good. Somehow in this relationship when you work together there’s a plan to bring spirit into your life, help each other find their power, and bring love into this relationship and this planet. All these other souls, because you are all connected, are you. You are part of everything.

There are many parts of you that now exist in other realities. If you can connect with them and believe they are parts of you, not finding a twin soul as another person won’t matter because you’re here to find out who you are. The Council wants to get the message out to people that believe they can’t function because they haven’t found the right person – this isn’t true. When you begin to realize who you are as a spiritual being and all the power and purpose you want is within you, you’ll bring in other souls that’ll help you. But the secret is to know that everything you’re looking for outside of you is in the other parts of you.

When you love yourself and you’re happy with who you are, your vibration changes. If you feel lost, go within and find the love. Play with your mind and use it positively. Imagine the good you’re doing in other realities. When you start to feel that, your life here connects with some of the other parts of you and your life can become more than it seems.

As The Council says, with this session they’re taking our understanding of twin flames, twin souls, and soulmates to a new level. We encourage you to listen to the entire 19-minute audio recording of this session with them to hear all their guidance for Michelle and the rest of us, and let us know what you feel.

Twin Flames, Twin Souls, and Soulmates – What’s the Difference?

This post answers questions for The Council from a reader named Kimberly, who asks when was the last time she incarnated with her twin flame.

The Council says a twin soul, which is another name for twin flame, is part of your higher self and not an aspect of another spirit. The twin flame incarnates as a part of your higher self to shake up your life. It’s not usually a partner, but someone that jumps in and out of your life and forces you to grow. It’s sort of a mirror that shows you your beliefs and helps when you’re stuck.

Sometimes your relationship with your twin soul is a rough one and you don’t get along. Other times your twin soul will be very supportive. The twin soul always comes to help you get unstuck. Many people think the twin soul is a romantic relationship, but this isn’t its purpose.

A soulmate is someone you’ve worked with over many lifetimes and there’s a spiritual agreement to have a very close relationship in your current lifetime. Whether it’s a marriage or a close relationship, a soulmate comes from a different spirit than your own and has agreed to come in and help you. The twin soul or twin flame is someone that you’ve created from a part of your own higher self.

The Council says they feel Kimberly is asking about a soulmate even though she uses the words, twin flame. But they feel it’s necessary for her to hear an explanation for the twin flame because she needs to look at her life and see that she’s brought one in. Is it a close relationship? Is it someone who pushes her buttons? Is it a teacher who helps her go in another direction?

The twin flame appears as a separate person who comes in and out of your life or is in your life for a short period of time, but is really an aspect of your higher self that’s here to help you move on. The Council believes Kimberly’s original question is asking about a romantic soulmate from two lifetimes ago, as opposed to a twin flame, but they feel it’s important for her to explore her current lifetime, look for her twin flame, and ask herself what she is trying to teach herself.

Kimberly asks if anything tragic happened with her twin flame in this previous life and The Council is clear in their answer that they’re talking about a soulmate in a previous life, not a twin flame. They see a life in England during the 1600s. Kimberly was the husband in that lifetime, he had two children, worked as a traveling cloth tradesman, and the tragedy was that although he had a loving family, he abandoned them for an opportunity to sail to different ports and trade his goods.

The Council says in Kimberly’s current lifetime there may be a focus on healing the abandonment from the previous lifetime and learning how the female partner in that lifetime felt. She may be searching for the perfect partner in her current lifetime, but has difficulty finding it because of the abandonment in the previous lifetime. She can heal this by being gentle in her current lifetime, considerate, and having a permanent relationship where she no longer wants to run away.

Bob asks if there’s a relationship in Kimberly’s current lifetime with the wife or children from the previous lifetime. The Council says there was an agreement with one of the children to be the partner Kimberly’s looking for so healing can take place, but this hasn’t happened yet.

The Council says before Kimberly goes looking for her partner she should concentrate on the twin flame who’s in her life to shake it up, teach her to open her heart and mind, and look at things differently. Once this happens then she can concentrate on what she’d bring to the relationship she desires. Then she can look for the joy wherever she can find it because there was a lot of hardship in the past life.

Kimberly asks if her twin flame (which The Council believes she means her soulmate) will be there when she crosses over. The Council says the souls you need to see at the time you cross over will be there for you and you’ll recognize them.

Kimberly closes by asking if her twin flame (read soulmate) has any messages for her. The Council says their message is to stay in the vibration of love, show it to yourself first, be kind to yourself, and explore who you are. There’s so much more you can find out about who you truly are and what you’re able to do in this lifetime. Pay attention to your dreams and watch them unfold.

Listen to the entire 17-minute audio recording of our session with The Council to hear all their guidance for Kimberly and the rest of us, and let us know how you feel about it.

An Abortion and the Questions about Change it Inspired

This post is inspired by questions from a reader named Nacole, and the questions her abortion prompted her to ask The Council.

Nacole starts by saying she’s read the bible most of her life, prayed over everything, and was very judgmental toward women who had abortions because she thought it was selfish. But today she had an abortion and she surprisingly finds herself at peace. The Council interjects here it’s wonderful how Nacole realizes she was judgmental about something she was unable to accept, and how in spirit she set up going through an abortion so she could learn something new about this experience.

Nacole says she felt the father of her last child was her soulmate, but he left when she was seven months pregnant and she’s been devastated by this. Her current pregnancy is with a man who’s in a relationship with another woman and he disappeared when Nacole told him she was pregnant, which she expected. And so she decided to abort this pregnancy rather than go through it alone.

Nacole says she’s home now after the abortion and she was prepared to battle suicidal thoughts and extreme fatigue, but they never came. She can’t explain it, but she feels love rather than guilt or pain. She’s been thinking about the baby she aborted and all she can do is smile at the thought of her. And she feels an unexplainable impulse to make changes in her life life like stopping smoking, reduce her alcohol consumption, lose weight, and get rid of bad relationships with people who treat her poorly.

When Nacole used Google to get information about what she was feeling, she came upon our website and was pleasantly surprised by the stories of other women’s abortions and how much they reminded her of what she was experiencing. And she asks The Council six questions.

Nacole wants to know how difficult the process of changing her life will be. And The Council says, as difficult as she believes. They say Nacole planned this abortion in spirit to teach herself about her beliefs and her judgements towards other people. And The Council tells Nacole her calmness and very little cramping and bleeding is coming to her because the child she aborted is a very strong soul who is sending her love to get her past this part of her life.

The Council advises Nacole to focus on bringing one change at a time into her life. Acknowledging the changes she desires is the first step. Focus on what she desires rather than the difficulty of the change. And The Council advises Nacole to see nothing is permanent, everything can be changed, the direction of this change is her choice, and she shouldn’t give up.

Nacole asks The Council what will happen if she fails bringing these changes about, and The Council replies there is no failure. The only way Nacole can fail is if she gives up all her dreams, and they don’t see this happening.

When Nacole asks if she’ll ever get over her relationship with the father of her two year old daughter and find someone new, and The Council says why not. It’s her choice. That relationship wasn’t going in the direction she desired, so create from that point forward. Ask yourself what type of person you want to be with. Find a match in your mind and your feelings and you will easily forget what didn’t work out in this previous relationship and create a new one.

Nacole asks how the abortion can be changing her thoughts and beliefs so quickly, and The Council says it’s because she’s now tuned in to her higher self and this is what she planned in spirit before birth.

When Nacole asks why she doesn’t feel guilty about the abortion and The Council asks how she can feel guilty when she is feeling peace and there is understanding of how life can change.

And Nacole’s final question is will the spirit of this child she aborted come back to her in this lifetime, and The Council says they see this spirit moving on. What they’ve created together in this lifetime was enough for both of them to learn from and they both have different experiences they wish to learn now. But they emphasize Nacole will always be able to experience the love from this spirit even though they are both moving on.

Listen to our entire 13-minute session with The Council (below) to receive their guidance for Nacole and the rest of us. And let us know what you think.

A Question About a Soulmate

This post is inspired by a question from Maria who asks if she’s crazy for believing she’ll marry a man she describes as her soulmate, even though he broke up with her a year ago and stopped speaking with her two months ago when he got together with someone else.

The Council says you’re never crazy for having a desire and it’s always good to honor your wishes, but sometimes you need to look at the whole situation and ask why you need to be with this particular person.

The Council says a soulmate is an important person who agrees to come into your life to work something out. They are not necessarily the greatest love of your life. Sometimes they can be a friend, a family member, or someone you just feel a closeness to. On some level Maria has agreed to have this experience with this man she’s calling her soulmate, and for now they say this relationship is over.

Maria says she knows she’ll be together in this lifetime with this person she thinks of as a soulmate, and The Council asks her if she really believes this or if it’s just something she’s hanging onto. They ask whether she’d want to create another soulmate to be with her for part or all of her life. And they add that the idea is to love everyone as you have them in your life for however long they’re in your life.

The Council says if there’s something Maria feels she needs to complete in this lifetime with this person, he can choose to return to her. But they say it’s important to understand whether this person returns or not, Maria has challenges and happiness waiting for her in the rest of this lifetime. The question is whether she will take advantage of these situations or she’ll sit back and become bitter if this person doesn’t return. The Council advises to look for this person to return if she wants, but to also look for someone new in the meantime.

The Council advises Maria to look where this journey takes her now. That’s how she pulls in what her spirit has planned for her. When Maria focuses on the love she had with this person whether he returns or not, this contributes to a more positive experience for both of them and he may desire to return. But if Maria can be available to whatever comes along, she may bring in something so wonderful that she won’t want the original person back.

The Council says the situations Maria has experienced have been put there on purpose by her spirit for her to learn what she wants. With new emotions, thoughts, and feelings they ask her to now create them in her life.

And The Council finishes the session by saying they see great happiness for Maria.

Listen to the entire 11-minute recording of the session below to get all The Council’s guidance for Maria. Let us know what you think.
