Twin Flame Soul Mates:

The first mention of what has been later interpreted to be a description of twin flames comes from Plato:

In his dialogue The Symposium, Plato has Aristophanes, a comic playwright, present a story about soul mates. Aristophanes states that humans originally had four arms, four legs, and a single head made of two faces. He continues that there were three genders: man, woman and the "Androgynous". Each with two sets of genitalia with the Androgynous having both male and female genitalia. The men were children of the sun, the women were children of the earth and the Androgynous were children of the moon, which was born of the sun and earth. It is said that humans had great strength at the time and threatened to conquer the gods. The gods were then faced with the prospect of destroying the humans with lightning as they had done with the Titans but then they would lose the tributes given to the gods by humans.

Zeus developed a creative solution by splitting humans in half as punishment for humanity's pride and doubling the number of humans who would give tribute to the gods. These split humans were in utter misery to the point where they would not eat and would perish so Apollo had sewn them up and reconstituted their bodies with the navel being the only remnant harkening back to their original form. It is said that when the two find each other, there is an unspoken understanding of one another, that they feel unified and would lay with each other in unity and would know no greater joy than that.[6]

I've bolded the "would lay with each other in unity" part of the above reference to twin flames.

It is in the silent embrace of the soul that you feel most whole.  The longing to belong we all have and that search for unconditional love, is what we feel from longing to become whole again with our other half.

It's misconception is that it's an earthly relationship, when that's not necessarily the case.  In the deepest recesses of your soul, you find your twin, your other half, and when you do you can complete the circuit that has been seemingly separated for so long and become whole again if only for moments by reaching out to each other.

This silent embrace of the soul needs no words.  It's a knowing, a belonging and a complete peace that fills your entire being.  It's not the body that's fulfilled, it's not just the soul; it's all of you.  This is wholeness, divine love and unity.

I wanted to take a look back today at where twin flames are in our history.  I'd like to share this piece of work with you by DaVinci, a man who has made many contributions to the reality of our beings. I believe the image speaks for itself:

There was another man named Michael Jackson that also made a contribution on this phenomenon. In his video You Are Not Alone, he speaks about reaching out to another, hearing prayers, and being comforted by not being alone.  The original video also contained images of Michael as an angel. This is the divine aspect of each one of us.  Unfortunately those scenes have been taken out, but here you can still listen to the words and get the meaning:

This is the taped original version if you can play it.  It's been flagged on YouTube, but was recorded when Michael was still living from his History series:

If you can't play the above video, here is a screenshot of the original and why you can't:
