Twin Flames - A Connection of the Heart

If you have entered into conversing with your flame telepathically, you may notice at times that the connection seems to be stronger at times than others.  At times you will hear the voice so strong it is without doubt that they are indeed there.  At other times, you will question the connection.  For when you reach out it seems that they are gone and so you question the connection all over again.

The growth between flames is a gradual process.  Like the opening of a flower, you will discover the consciousness that merges the two of you.  In the process, there will be fluctuations of your thoughts, emotions, and openness to one another.  Remember, you are both doing your "work" independently to become whole yourself.  Past hurts and events that play upon you can have a direct effect on the relationship with your flame.  This is the "stuff" we need to get out of our way - our patterns.

So how exactly do our patterns effect the connection with our flames?  Well on the surface you might logically think that we do the same thing over and over again in our physical world, but with flames the connection is internal as well.  Twin flames connect at the heart and as such should you decide to close your heart to the world, most often you also close the connection with your flame.

Allow me to go back to the pictures of Jesus we previously posted.  His heart is wrapped in flames, a halo encircled his head.  The picture posted left, illustrates the typical picture of the heart Jesus has in most painting depicted of him.  Fire comes from a heart wrapped in thorns.  Does this simply mean that Jesus was full of firey love for humanity and suffered with thorns or could we step out of the box and look at the paintings of him differently?  For in each one I have viewed, I have noticed he is pointing to his heart.  Somehow I find it hard to believe he's saying "Hey look at what I did for you".  Jesus was a teacher.  Perhaps there is more to the  message.  Maybe there has been a teaching in these paintings all along.

If we remember, it is the heart center where flames unite.  In the time of Jesus, Mary Magdeline was said to be his twin flame.  The movie Da Vinci Code touched on this.  Even mentioning the chalice or inverted triangle symbolizing woman.  If you remember, the two triangles, superimposed on one another also symbolize creation and are present right at the heart center in the illustrations of our chakra or heart energy center in Tibet.

So what is so special about this heart center?  The heart itself regulates the body, but on the spiritual planes it also is the center of our feeling and our past hurts.  We can actually feel physical pain in the heart center when we remember our past hurts.  Someone who has lied to us, cheated on us, or has done something or said something very hurtful.  These memories, the patterns of these past hurts are stored in the heart center.  Like the thorns that Jesus wore, they are painful and close our heart centers down.  When the heart center closes, our flames are not able to reach us.

The opening and closing, however, of the heart center is automatic.  It is our responses that have been learned over time.  Sometimes we are open, but when events, people and things transpire in our lives that remind us of our past hurts the pain is stirred up again and our heart centers shut down.  It is our protection of the heart that we think will save us from hurt, when all we are really doing is holding onto the hurt and clogging up the ability to love.  Too much hurt, too much of this hurtful, negative energy, then leads to depression.

I don't know about you, but I don't want to live like that.  I've been hurt a lot in the past and had always questioned how Michael could still love after all he had been through.  The answer is found here:  If you know that your hurts are energetically stored in your heart then every time you feel your heart hurt, recognize it.  When the heart constricts, consciously breathe into it releasing the held anger, hurt and frustration.  When you hold onto it, it's like holding onto an illness and you prevent the flow of love from entering your heart and flowing through you.  It does you no good, but we think we are protecting ourselves.  But what are we protecting ourselves from?  Love?

Life will happen.  Bad men and women will come and go, but holding onto the hurts that they have caused only causes us suffering.  Today remove the thorns around your own heart and hold within you the knowledge that you too can love as Jesus did.  Brave enough to let your past go and loving enough to be open to your flame.

A medium friend said this to me the other day when I was asking about Twin Flames....

The challenge is fitting into Earth perception what the structures are in our real home. The concept of a twin flame is human perspective imposed on a structure where it doesn't neatly fit. Flame is good, it identifies energy and light emanating from it. Twin is also a good description however the notion we can send a portion of our soul to live each day on Earth and allow another portion to remain at home runs counter to our "captivity" in a body, but it's nearly universal.

We feel and understand the energy fields without names; people you don't like but have no good reason to explain the feeling? That's an example.
At home we don't use names, we don't need them. Humans have the habit. In Heaven, we don't need labels like names. Twin souls and flames are more an Earth pairing concept than of Heaven and immediate family can often fall into categories like this. Bear in mind, structure, definitions and arrangements we humans like are not the same for everyone and don't fit Heaven neatly, or vice versa. The roles of a twin can be triples for some of us, or more.

This is so well said! I think that's where people get confused in their thinking. We cannot limit the flame relationship to our preconditioned thoughts about relationships. Very nicely put...thank you so much for taking the time to add it here and comment :)
