Soul connections are significant and hard to come by. These connections are transformational and can open the doorway for personal growth and healing. That’s why it’s essential to know the signs of a soul connection so that you that you recognize it when it happens. (Estimated reading time: 7 minutes)
“There are no accidental meetings between souls.”
— Sheila Burke
Have you ever met someone with whom you felt an unexplainable connection? Upon meeting them, you may have felt an instant pull that defies logic, or reason. Even before getting to know them, you may have sensed a special dynamic which you felt compelled to explore.
Maybe it was your best friend from school, or a mentor who helped you get ahead in your career, or even a college sweetheart who was your first, true love. Perhaps it was the high school teacher who taught you to believe in yourself, or the co-worker who betrayed you, teaching you a valuable lesson about the importance of trust, and personal boundaries. These signification relationships are deep, profound, and possess a level of intimacy that create lasting impressions.
As rational beings, we feel the urge to label these connections, even though our passions are unquantifiable and unfathomable. Over the years, many terms have been concocted to describe these deep and significant connections – soul mate, twin-flame, past-life, karmic relationships. According to certain spiritual and religious traditions, these are people with whom we’ve made soul agreements before incarnating into human form with whom we must resolve pending karmic issues to foster the evolution and growth of our souls. The charge that we sense when we encounter these people is a sign that we have a soul agreement with them.
Because of the esoteric and insubstantial nature of this view of soul connections, many people remain skeptical. They dismiss it as superstitious mumbo-jumbo used by psychics to manipulate gullible individuals to make a quick buck. While I certainly agree that there are charlatans out there who use this phenomenon to their advantage, I don’t think that we should allow their unethical choices to influence our view on soul connections. You’re being drawn to a certain person for a reason and purpose, and it’s essential to notice the signs.
To wrap our heads around these soul-based relationships, we need to reclassify the term ‘soul connection’ by getting clear on what it is. The most common misconception is that soul connections are only romantic in nature. We’ve been fed with this fiction by the fairytales that we read, and the rom-coms that we watch. While it would be wonderful if it were true, it’s far from it. Soul-based relationships are a lot more complex, nuanced, and multi-layered than that.
While there is a strong chance that you could marry one of these souls, form a business partnership, or have a life-long friendship with, soul connections are seldom that clearly defined, or permanent. Your connection with these individuals could last for days, months, years, or a season of your life. However, the energy that you exchange with them during the time that you’re together will always deliver the lessons that you most need to learn. Whether you actually grow from it or not depends on how you respond to the events that transpire, and how you process the interaction.
Based on the experiences I’ve had with my soul connections, one commonality I’ve been able to trace in all of them is the unparalleled emotional intensity that I feel about these individuals. As an HSP and empath, I’m especially sensitive and tuned into my own feelings, and the feelings of others. I’m fairly quick to pick up on intensity in an interpersonal dynamic and intuit whether it’s based on soul chemistry, physical chemistry, or other superficial ego-based commonalities.
What I love about a soul connection is its capacity to transport me to deeper dimensions of emotion. Like the Garden of Eden, it’s a mystical realm that can only be accessed when our impressions and feelings are sufficiently stimulated. Even if the person is not physically present, memories of them echo sensations of fondness, delight, and sometimes, melancholy and grief.
These relationships are rare and hard to come by, but you can increase your chances of having more positive and enriching soul connections in your life by going where they are. Spend more time in places, organizations, and institutions where you will find people with similar values, interests, and philosophies. If you’re an artist at heart, go to artistic events such as exhibitions and galleries. If you’re someone who loves sports, go to more sporting events and health clubs.
While seeking out your kindred spirits, keep these four signs in mind while looking for those true soul connections:
1. They change you (and your life) on a profound level: As you interact with a soul connection, you’ll gradually sense that there’s something about you that will never be the same. You can feel a significant shift in your inner landscape which often reflects in your outer circumstances. The energy exchange that you have with a soul connection, be it professionally, socially, or romantically, reconfigures the existing coordinates which you’ve known. They might do this consciously or unconsciously, directly or subtly, through their actions, words, or just their presence. The nature of these ‘soul-appointments’ could vary from the person that you end up marrying and having children with, to a passing encounter with someone you meet at a seminar or a conference who offered you some life-changing advice.
2. They make you aware of the things you love (or hate) about yourself: The individuals with whom you have a soul connection will always mirror back your own qualities. In her book, Eat Pray Love, writer Elizabeth Gilbert writes, “a true soul mate is probably the most important person you’ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you.” That’s why it’s so easy to get triggered by their actions and words because they can make you aware of the shadow traits within yourself, something you may not like to be reminded of. If you could manage your emotions, you can tap into the revelations that you have from these encounters to grow, and heal. On the other hand, if you admire certain things about them, you can pat yourself on the back because you most definitely have those qualities, or it’s something you’re aspiring to.
3. You feel connected to them on an energetic level: The bond that you share with a soul connection feels exceptionally strong. Even if they are not around in your surroundings, you often think about them and wonder how they are doing. No matter what you do, you can’t eliminate the energetic ties that link the two of you on the cosmic plane. It’s not uncommon for soul connected individuals to have a telepathic connection, even at a distance. By staying connected to them, you stay in touch with the energies that they infuse into your life and the lessons that they teach.
4. You know that you won’t forget them: We meet so many people over the course of our lifetimes. Memories will fade over time, but soul connections cannot be easily forgotten. The imprints that they leave on your soul cannot be erased. While growing up, my father would often tell us stories about the man who gave him his first break when he was in his 20’s, even though there were other candidates better qualified than him. His boss-to-be could see my father’s potential and willingly took him under his wing, teaching him the ropes of the banking industry. My dad, now in his mid-70’s, still remembers this man with affection, gratitude, and deep respect.
When it comes to soul connections there are no limits – age, nationality, culture, race, profession, and status are simply irrelevant because these connections pierce through the facade of our constructed identity. By expanding your awareness, and opening yourself up to these destined connections, you have the opportunity to experience the true nature of universal love, and reach a state of wholeness and wisdom.
All my best on your journey,
Seline
Question: Have you experienced a soul connection? What effect did this person have in your life and on your personal growth?
Lots of great stuff here yet again Selin- thank you! I love the honest way you talk about this topic and offer insight and advice. It is a touchy topic for some as I now several friends who do not believe in the ide of a soul mate or someone you are destined to have a connection with- whether romantic r not. I think I will pass this blog along to them and see if it can help open their eyes. Thanks again for sharing!
Hi, I’ve just started a new job & this lady I’ve met there is unique. It’s as if we’ve known each other for eternity. Its a such a strong connection, she knows what I’m thinking without saying a word. Today she showed me something we both share. It was incredible! Mind blowing to be honest
It is a controversial topic Kaya and I guess everyone’s entitled to their own opinion.
Well, I had a real true friend when I was 14. I had a crush on him when we were 15 but he disappeared. I thought of him often. In 2015, I left my ex whom I was with since age 14. The first thing I did was search for my long lost friend. I thought I fell in love in 2016 but it was short lived and the most painful experience I ever had. I learned alot of life lessons in a short period of time. Years went by and I kept searching. About 3 or 4 months ago I was about to give it a rest when something told me to try one more time. Even though I did this many times before, I gave it another try. I found an old facebook account on his brother, we had 1 mutual friend. I messaged the mutual friend and got contact info. I called his brother and learned my friend had been in trouble and is currently in prison for non violent offense. His brother said he hasnt heard from my friend in almost a year. I wrote a letter to the cdc facility my friend is in. 2 days later, the brother called me to tell me my friend just called and out of the blu & is excited about me seeking out to find him. 2 days after the phone call, I got a letter from my friend. FINALLY after 38 years we found each other. He started calling me and we got to hear each others voices. We both care deeply about each other so much that it hurts! We are falling in love but yet to have anything physical. Its all in writing or over the phone. I love him, Im in love with him and we think alike, have alot of the same values and finish each others sentences. He knows what Im thinking as I do his too. He loves me, I can feel it and it melts me when he says he loves me. We have plans and we both have no secrets. We both want the same things and we both have been hurt. We know its true love. We feel in our hears that our Souls new we would be doing this right now. It didnt happen before because we probably werent ready. Now, that we have been thru some life lessons, our lives are changed for the better and we both agree our souls are responsible for all this. The best is yet to come because he is due to come home soon. We are so excited and mindful that we know in reality, we will come into hard times but we will work thru them and come out stronger. We are planning to be together for the rest of our lives. Could this be our Soul Connections on every level ? Please let me know what you know. Thsnk you for sharing your wonderful gift with us. You give us hope.
That’s soo sweet
Everything described here is a mirror to how and what I felt and still feel about my ex partner and how we were together. I am so certain that our story is yet to be completed and that what we have experienced thus far is only a ‘prologue’ to the main story. I love and miss my queen so much and I know hand on heart 100% that we are destined to grow old together. X
Great tools and resources.
Hi. I spent 21 years of my life with a man who I thought was ‘the one’. I left due to his addiction. 4yrs later, still unable to date..I met a man whom I believe I had a rare, metaphysical connection with. He definitely felt it too. It was like we were a magnet to each other. We spent every waking moment together, would have deep conversations until 2am. I won’t lie, it was all online. But 100% undeniable. We would talk on the phone, send audio/videos of each other. Never, ever have I experienced such an intense magnetic, invisible powerful force before and I know I’ll never ever experience this again. I will go to my grave one of the happiest women on earth because I have experienced a connection of this magnitude. He is my soulmate, my twin flame, my everything. I dream, eat and breathe this man and I know he feels the same.
ive always found small connections over the years with ppl i meet… but truely found my romantic soul connection… we met in high school dated a little but it didnt go anywhere. he went into the military, i got married divorced moved out of state and connected a few times via fb over the last several yrs… but in january this yr i had to drive across the US to see my mom who is sick and crashed at his house the a night to recoup before finishing my drive. wow… what an instant connection… i didnt expect to miss him so much when i left and he felt the same way… a few weeks later on my return trip home i stopped to see him again and stayed 2 days this time. it was so hard to leave. we talk everyday and facetime and have these incredible talks but agonizing that we live in different states…. 25 yrs after meeting the first time and we realized how much we are supposed to be together.. definately a soul connection.. my best friend from high school that knows us both has said many times over the yrs that we are supposed to be together… i didnt beleive it till now…
Beauty story, Sherry. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Good article, though feeling their energetic presence with you, around you and their emotions when they are not physically there is another very common experience along with the opening up to the energetic universe in general so you can sense others too, soul shock is a devestating experience
I’m having experience right now, for last 8 months, he is a coworker who I briefly see once a week, I’m older lady, he’s younger, we feel it both. I don’t know him as a person at all, but feel his soul and enormous unconditional love pouring from my heart,it is not easy burning experience especially because I have need to sit and talk but I don’t know how to approach, and he us sure I have a crush on him. I probably do
Hi Ira, he just might be someone significant – no harm in saying hi!
Good luck! 🙂
Hi Ira! What happened?
I had experienced this with someone years ago,the first day i met her at work i felt i knew her somewhere before,I started finding her attractive,even though i never really knew her just seen her at work.Afew weeks before it happened she told me she was leaving too a different room in the building. When it was her last day she went too say bye as i looked too say bye her eyes with spinning i went into a conscious stare or something, i felt like i was someone else with no control over what i was doing,stamped my feet couldn’t look away from her and said too myself let me show you what it be like too be with me there was a ring off light around us with kids holding hands in a ring with us in the middle,then it was over.From that day she was always making every opportunity too see me then other days she would be scared of me she told everyone at work i put a spel on her. What do you think it could be and why? I know it sounds crazy i dont think ill ever forget it. Thanks for reading.
Twin-flame maybe, but seems as if she’s afraid of the intensity and ran away from it. You can’t do anything about it if the other person doesn’t embrace it, unfortunately. I had a friend who had a similar experience. This connection happens on the spiritual plane not the human plane.
I met a soul connection and then they moved across the country. She is afraid of the feelings and has stopped the connection. They placed me as a casual friend and I think it’s because she is overwhelmed of the feelings and don’t know what to make of them. She has not said any of this to me, a psychic friend did. We have never talked about our feelings. It’s like God brought us together and it’s been ripped out from under (at least me). She never told me how she feels. It is pretty painful to have your heart opened so widely with nowhere to go. When do you know to ask Michael angel to cut the chord? Or should I wait and see what happens. It feels tragic to me. I want the longing for joy & love to stop, it’s breaking my heart not to have it returned or even acknowledged. It’s almost maddening. I am not responding in my usual way, of protecting myself by getting angry and close my heart to them. I have tried but the unconditional love continues to keep my heart open. I’m not interested in a romantic relationship as I know that a soul connection goes much deeper and we can be fooled into thinking it’s about romance and it’s not. The age difference makes it highly unlikely. I so want to have a heart to heart talk with them but I feel they have closed their heart to me. We are both losing out. I don’t know how to proceed.
Well, my soulmate is my sweet, lovely ex-hubby from Queensland and I’m from Graz (but used to live in Vienna). Although we got divorced in 2002 and now in 2019 I still think of him every day!!! I’ll never ever forget him!! He’s the best man I’ve ever met and I feel that I’m his perfect match, too!! What a pity we got divorced for stupid “reasons”…! Besides our credo was: ANYTIME, ANYWHERE & ANYHOW!
That’s really great!! I do believe in deep, profound love and soulmates!! THANKS for sharing!
On a deeper level, you will know when a soulmate has come into your life by listening to the wisdom of your heart 🙂
I think I encountered a soul connection not too long ago. She and I met at a weeklong event, occasionally working together. She is 30 years my senior and we seem to be vastly different people, but I noticed pretty quickly as I worked with her that in situations which normally give me a lot of anxiety, I instead felt such a sense of utter peace/safety/familiarity I cannot rationally explain and that should not exist given how different we are on a surface level and how little we “actually” know each other. But I feel very strongly that I have known her, deeply, in some way, romantic or not. I have this implicit trust that comes seemingly from nowhere, out of very little. I have a feeling of reverence and quiet joy, like I’ve arrived at some beautiful place after a long journey. It’s like having a singing bell rung once right in my ear: pure, clear, resounding, drowning out meaningless noise. It creates a distressing dissonance between logic and what my spirit or heart knows–when interacting with her I’ve struggled to function completely normally, to put on my normal social persona and act according to what social logic dictates, yet I’m equally afraid that abandoning social logic and acting more authentically, from the level of intimacy I sense with her, will be misconstrued and/or damage what is there. It is painful to hold back. I’m fairly certain she does have some sense of it as well, though not to the level I do. The people I have shared this experience with (including my spouse) all jumped to a romantic/sexual interpretation, and while it isn’t completely out of the question, it feels like something entirely beyond that. Normally I am skeptical of a lot of metaphysical ideas, but I cannot deny what I am experiencing, intensely, and the fact that it was unexpected, unlooked-for, and arose out of no psychological basis. Even just the first encounter with her caused a gigantic upheaval in my life and self-concept. For a while I thought we would lose contact by necessity because my spouse felt threatened, and the very idea of losing her without finishing this (finishing what???) filled me with a grief I can’t explain and seems absurd. I couldn’t bring myself to tell anyone about it for fear they’d think I was absolutely nuts, crying about some older woman I barely know and who could be my mom. We did eventually exchange numbers, we attended an event where we saw each other again, but I am struggling to proceed because of how complicated it is, how different we are, and my fear of how it could be perceived by my spouse, my friends, my colleagues. Maybe it isn’t even meant to be a friendship with her, I’m trying to be open-minded and open-handed about what is or isn’t going to happen…and I know I have already learned from her. Her mere presence so clearly mirrors back to me/allows me to easily see where I have personal work to do. But this experience gets to me, it haunts me, and I had to share it somewhere. Thank you for this article putting words to and validating some of what I’ve been feeling.
Wow. Profound to say the least. Thank you for sharing your experience. Have you made any progress on what your level of soul connection could be with this lady?
like word, I am having similar experiences. like the person is 24 years older than me and my family and friend group are completely against this. like we even dated for a short period of time. but like that is the issue he is 24 years my senior and it is seen as very out of the ordinary by my family’s ‘culture’. the thing is though that he also experiences visions about me, which to me was really weird. so when he started to describe them with serious detailing I had to check his detailing for myself cause it is weird to me. for a few months ago I did not even know what he looked like yet he is having these dreams. so one day he told me to watch out cause my dad would get angry and throw down my phone. I was like……. okay that is weird, for I don’t know if my dad purposefully destroying things that he knows are not his, dad is very respectful like that. hence I told him to keep the description of the phone to himself cause I have to see this. only to note that two or so weeks later, the person tried contacting me and the messages and the calls went through on Dad’s phone. this was really odd for that has never happened, lo and behold dad got upset and I noticed……dad throwing down a phone to the ground. so I called the person and asked what was the description of the phone and he described the phone to be dark grey or close to black. Now here’s is the real kicker there is only one phone in the house that matches that description and it was the phone that he accidentally called. the thing too is that my phones are rose gold and white so there was no way it would have been my phone. still, though the situation is a bit too accurate for my liking. my family and friends believe that he is telling me lies, but as you said there is this weird trust that is found. When I am sad he cheers me up just by talking, when I am mad he calms me down just by talking when I am scared he makes me feel safe. and up till this day, I haven’t even met him. he dreamt about some other things and I looked out for them and they just play out. Soul mate, soul something, this still feels crazy cause when I tell people they think I am crazy. I am usually a person of reason, but it is like reason said goodbye when this person told me hello.
we broke up because of my family and what he saw in his dreams. Cause he saw something scary happening to me and because this person is important to me and I am in a very fragile spot in my life right now-i don’t want to leave. ugh, my dad has brought me to countless people and I think it is because of this soul connection thing why those people are not working. usually, they are the persons I turn to but this scenario is hard to explain to people cause they ask how long have known at least of him and I have to hesitate cause it feels like I have known him all of my life. not only this but before your relationship when had a whopping five-give or take-over-the-phone conversation. So from that, I guess you can see where my family has a problem.
ugh, I just hate this cause I know there is something there but I can’t act on it at all. we broke up on good enough circumstances but he dislikes my dad because of what he saw in the dream. we can all attest to the fact that your family hating your spouse off the bat is not a good place to have a relationship. it is so sad cause I do see a future and he does too, but what I have learned about this thing (soul connection) is that whatever the person says they dream always materialize. I just truly don’t want what he dreamt of to happen but he also said that we would stop talking at the end of March. I did my best to not let it manifest, but on the final day of the march, we stopped talking.
all I have to say is that this soul thing is deep, maybe too deep and I have no idea what will happen. well, that’s a lie cause he told me what would happen. there is just so much of this experience that I hate. I have learned so much about myself from him including the fact that I maybe have a thing for older guys. oh well, this has been a stressful thing for me cause my dad is hell-bent on proving to me that this man is a liar. the thing is though the conversations just flow on for hours without trying, I think this is a soul connection thing but it would be great to receive some form of response to this epilogue.
This was so helpful and made a lot of things make sense to me!
Glad to hear Ri! 🙂
I’ve been dating someone who I truly believe is my own romantic soulmate for two years, though that’s not what I have to talk about today. I more recently realized that I also have a soul connection with his eldest brother, who has been a huge influence on my life. I am the oldest in my family, and my parents were never around when I was growing up, so at times I guess I feel I’ve lacked good mentorship, which they couldn’t provide me with. This person is the oldest sibling I always wished was there to care for me. He embodies so much that I admire and aspire to. An intelligent and beautiful soul who cares deeply about those of our society who are suffering, and works hard to make a real difference in people’s lives, despite so much standing against his efforts. I feel so lucky to know him and learn from him, and I feel like he’s completely changed my life and my attitude towards it, motivating me to pursue my education and discover what I can really give to the world, despite whatever adversity may stand in my way. My connection and relationship with him has given me a deeper appreciation for the true power that I have to change my own life, and the lives of others. For a person who has been the parent to their parents kids, and been the resentment of their parents for merely existing, it has been really meaningful to have someone I can look up to and trust to be reasonable and have my best interests at heart.
Beautiful and profound story, Jane. Thank you for sharing it with us. 🙂
Thank you for sharing this Seline!
I’ve had a strange experience that may have been an encounter with a soul mate, and I haven’t been sure what to make of it since.
A few years ago, I met this guy in a tent some day at a festival with friends – we’d never talked or even met. We were sitting across each other and at some point made eye contact because we both had said something similar at the same time. This is going to sound ridiculously cliché, but as soon as our eyes met, it was like some kind of electric connection happened. It felt like our eyes were meeting each other again after a long time. I was struck, it was strange, we ended up just gravitating towards each other and spent the entire night walking around this festival, just talking, until the morning. 7 hours or so. I can’t even remember what we talked about, we honestly don’t have much in common at all, but it felt as though I had met him before, and that I’d known him for a long time. I’ve never felt such a deep, unexplainable connection to someone upon meeting them. He’d also been struck, I could sense it, and we both, in our casual, joking ways, expressed how surprised we were at the fact that we hadn’t ever met before.
It’s a bit of a long complicated story but, in short, we had a very short (2-3 week) lived romantic ish thing, and I called it off soon for a few reasons, mostly because in my mind I didn’t think we’d be compatible as partners. I had a tough time finding clarity in how I felt and struggled to step back from my thoughts / mind at the time, so it all felt like a bit of a confusing blur.
We’re not in contact anymore – I made some stupid decisions and saw one of his friends later on briefly (whom I also connected with, but not in the same way) and over time and the few sparse interactions we had it was clear I’d stepped on whatever friendship or connection we may have had. I’ve learnt and grown in a lot since.
It’s been a few years, but I still think about him often. I try not to, because when I do, I get this unbearable feeling deep in my stomach, some kind of profound nostalgia. It’s a strange kind of pain. I don’t really know what to make of it. We barely knew each other, for goodness’ sake! I’m not one to obsess over the past, guys, or people in general, either.
We really do not have anything in common – even values that are quite different – but I can’t shake the feeling I felt when we met. That I’ve known him deeply. It didn’t feel like we knew each other long enough to learn from each other, as you mentioned in your article. Or maybe we did, and I haven’t realized what I learnt yet. I don’t know if I should just let it go and trust that we might meet again, or try and reconnect with him in some way. It feels like I wasn’t ready or didn’t know how to deal with our connection at the time.
I’ve never actually spoken of this to anyone, but I really felt I needed to get this off my chest for the time being. Thank you for providing a platform where we can do so:)
Take this as a sign. Please reconnect with him and tell him how you’re feeling.
I met my soul mate/twin flame/soul connection/love of my life – I’m not sure what label to give it, when I was 18 years old, at university. It was love at first sight for me and he felt like home to me. We dated briefly but clashed a lot over differing personal beliefs surrounding intimacy. Over the last 15 years we are still in contact and for the first 10 years would see each other once a year and the connection would be off the charts. I remember when we first met, it was like we could communicate telepathically. I would think about a conversation I would want to have with him and then the next time I saw him, he would start these conversations with me. I have never had this connection with anyone and even though I’m happily married now with my own family. He was never willing to open himself up to a committed relationship so I had to let that dream go and find my alternative happiness. I haven’t seen him in over 5 years yet I still think of him often, I even see and feel him in my dreams. It is the most intense connection I’ve ever had. We are so different on so many levels but I feel quite likely what we need to grow. Albeit, life has taken us in different directions but I feel strongly that our story isn’t over yet.
I’ve met several people with who I felt connected, maybe because I move around a lot. One girl in high school became a good friend. When she passed away I had a dream and she said she and I had lived together in other lifetimes and that was why she could enter my dreams so easily. One of the most interesting more recently was when I took a job with our county. My supervisor and I felt this odd connection and electrical feeling around one another. It’s not so strong now. Our county is very conservative and although so is she, they didn’t want her or me. She kept her job just barely because her family was well placed in the main city. I was sacked for not being of the right religion. I’d dreamt about another time and in it she and I were sisters. We were killed for not being Christian and one of the men in the dream I felt was this other girl harassing us at work that I felt no connection with. The circumstances of the dream matched the historical period and it looked like a similar situation was going on here. She was very close to me, but sometime after my firing she started to blame me for being fired and had embraced the type of conservatism that is in the news and so political now. If the dream was a real past life, she probably is afraid of dying again, so is complying this time. I met a man in a pagan group with whom I also connected. None of this is romantic. We explored all kinds of things, but he felt all people who know each other now, knew each other when, and didn’t care to explain why we felt so different with each other. I currently have a supervisor that I feel soul connected with. She’s open to spiritual things and is very young. You’re right about having psychic experiences with them, I’ve had telepathic experiences with all of the last three, the county supervisor I even felt her pain when she was sick and her emotions. Now my friend and I have started a website where we are exploring psychic phenomena. I would like to ask my current supervisor about this topic and see if she also feels this and would like to explore it and see where we met before. Always wanted to do that. And the man is interested in doing ghost hunts again after not seeing one another for a couple of years. I think you’re right and we do meet for a spiritual reason. Now if I can just get the nerve to talk to my supervisor about this and see how open she really is. She’s already interested in ghosts. Perhaps I’ll write about it on our site. Thank you for validating my experiences.
In the summer of 2020 I came across a very powerful, strong, electrifying soul connection. It was like nothing I have felt before. I was so intrigued by the way he was able mirror me. I remember feeling so connected to him that I felt the need to touch his arm in order to feel him even deeper, if that makes any sense. I cried and cried as he was sharing his wisdom with me. In that moment we were vibrating at the same exact frequency. He elevated me to a different dimension for a minute. All I could see was a bright light shining in my mind. It was so pure, yet intensely electrifying. I then knew that this was gonna change me forever, for the better. In that moment I really thought I met my soulmate. Now looking back, maybe he was just one of my soulmates. At least just for the few moments I had with him whenever we connected on a deeper level. I wanted to get to know him so badly, on a deeper level. However, he did not feel the same way. Yeah, he acknowledged the connection, but it wasn’t the same for him. I’m guessing he didn’t like what he saw. I may have came across as too emotional for him. He did mention he wasn’t the most emotional person. So I couldn’t expect the same reaction from him. I didn’t. I just wish he would want to get to know me the same way I wanted to get to know him. I never told him how he made me feel. Maybe I should have, but everything happens for a reason. If it was meant to be, it would. Maybe someday, maybe never. Maybe he is just someone I was simply meant to briefly cross paths with. With this experience I’ve learned to value myself even more. I’ve learned to set healthier boundaries with others. I’ve also learned to be mor independent. I am just so grateful for such a cathartic experience. It forced me to go inward and dig deeper into myself. I’ve gotten to know myself a lot more since. I’m forever grateful for this because now I know that I will have this type of connection again someday. I will have more soul connections that will either teach me lessons or will potentially become blessings. Thank you for this article. I now know I am not alone I this. No one could understand me around me, so I often feel alone in this experience.
The first man I got to fall in love with.. seems to be like we have an intense soul connection. I could tell he loves me so much without saying it that I get scared.. we have tried to push eachother away on different occasions, kept breaking up and making up.. we end up coming together like some magnitic force.. I try to understand it and I don’t understand.. my research brought me to this article. I have met people but He is my first love and the only man that I was able to fall in love with as I never take love or relationship seriously. Our relationship isn’t based off sex or sexual intimacy.. we are actually far apart in different countries but we still hold on to the memories we have. I really want to spend the rest of my life with Him.. as I can’t think of life without him. I love him so much, I feel it when he thinks of me. The connection is so beautiful but stressful.. I really hope and pray for a final union so I don’t have to worry anymore. I believe we are meant for eachother.
A few months ago I needed to have a brief procedure (colonoscopy) done at a nearby hospital. I get wheeled into the operating room and I’m pretty much naked and covered by a sheet, with a cap on my head and an oxygen mask over my mouth. As we are waiting for my doctor to arrive, in walks the anesthesiologist. Now, it’s COVID, so she’s pretty much covered up from head to toe, and all I can see are her eyes. She introduces herself and we proceed to have the most remarkable 10-minute conversation. Among other things, we learn that we both went to the same high school on the opposite side of the state (she’s two years older), our children are the same age, we live about 5 minutes from each other and we share pretty personal stories where our sentences follow one another in the most comfortable, non-awkward manner possible. We are both saying how crazy this all is, but good lord, it’s her eyes…it’s so trite yet I feel like she is looking straight into me! So, the doctor (who is late), finally arrives and the anesthesiologist tells me that I made her day. I respond in kind..and then she knocks me out with a sedative. 🙂
Fast forward a week, I’m due to have a zoom appointment with my doctor to go over the results of my procedure. But during this last week, I cannot get this woman off my mind. I keep asking myself why. I don’t get it. It was an amazing conversation but the intensity of my feelings don’t match up with what could be just a very fun, albeit unusual conversation. So I decide I want to send her an email and let her know what a pleasure it was to meet her (I’m certainly not going to tell her that I can’t stop thinking about her) and my plan was to say something to the effect that I hope our paths cross again. I’m not one to put myself out there and that’s about as far as my wimpy self is going to go. But I can’t find an email address for her and she’s not on social media. So I email the hospital through a form on their website to see if they would share her email address with me. In the comments box I add that we also went to the same high school and that I wanted to say thank you. In my head, I’m expecting that I’ll either get a response from the hospital with her email address or nothing at all since it’s a form sent to a busy hospital. I wasn’t feeling especially confident. So, a week goes by and I haven’t heard anything and I’m thinking that nothing will come of it, and then one evening I get an email from her! She starts out by letting me know that she got my email from the hospital and again talking about our unusual conversation and how much she enjoyed it and then goes on to say that she has been thinking about me and is curious about my last vacation (which we also touched on that day). She ends by saying that someday, if time allows, she would like to speak with me again. This starts an email correspondence between the two of us that has gone on for a couple of months. These emails from her are always so kind and very complimentary of me and things I’ve been doing and for me, they are kind of flirty. But we’ve both been busy with kids, family and vacations and we are planning on taking a walk together in a couple of weeks. I feel like a teenager with a crush. But the reality is, I’m a 60 yo gay woman who has been in a partnership/marriage for 20 years and she is a 62 yo, divorced woman and my gaydar tells me she is straight. But the connection for me is crazy and I honestly feel like I’m going crazy. It has led me to look up things like “past life connections” and everything I’m reading points to us having some kind of past life experience. How does one feel thrilled, skeptical and anxious all at the time? I’ve decided I’m just going to enjoy this for whatever it is and try and learn from the experience. If nothing else, it makes for the best story ever! What a way to meet someone and have a connection! Truth IS stranger than fiction! I’m thankful I found this site today because, if nothing else, it feels good just to be able to write all of this down. Wish me luck and thanks for listening!
Had vivid dreams 3 nights in a row. One dream was about a small group of lions that I could speak with while we were all resting in the shade. Second dream was about being on a ship while talking to strangers about writing a book. Third night a man with blonde hair and deep blue eyes was looking into my eyes and it was intimate (not sexually) but emotionally intimate. Now I hardly read or watch romantic literature or movies!!! I never opt for a “type” of guy. Also the ship dream is still confusing.
Also I felt like I knew this man! Funny funny brain
I met someone a few months before COVID and how we met was no accident and we both know it. I got a speeding ticket one night and my tags were out of date due to mechanical problems and could not pass emissions which was no big deal, but I did have to appear in court to explain my reason for speeding and for my out of date tag. when I walked into the courtroom I will never forget looking at the judge. At that moment my life changed, the it will be two years in February that we went on our first hike together, and he is truly my best friend. We both know that something deep occurred when we encountered one another and that it was no accident. No he did not cut me any slack in court, but it was not that big of a deal anyways. Haha.
Our relationship is so easy, there is nothing about it that is difficult, we understand each other, I believe that we have to be more careful with our soul connections, that was the force of the universe that does no0t make accidents, we do, and we have to nurture those relationships in a more precise, thoughtful way. If they are in our lives for short time or a long time or for the rest of our days, we have to allow the universe to do it’s work. We mess it up when we push things to go our way. Just let it be, and relax and it will flow like the river…
Thank you for this, I really enjoyed the read.
You’re welcome Tonya! Thank you for sharing your story with us.
When it’s our turn to pass, can we meet other spirits that we cared about on earth such as a complete stranger we have heard of, but never got to meet on earth?
I have been feeling a strong spiritual energy of a particular person I never met on earth, when they passed away recently last month, that latches onto me. This person is always in my thoughts and prayers. No matter how hard I try I can’t stop thinking about them and I try to talk to them out loud by looking at their picture.
It’s hard to explain, but I can feel their energy with me. It’s a very strong energy field. It’s a loving energy and you miss them dearly, as though you were apart of their family circle. I am also experiencing a little grief for this person. But this was a complete stranger. Any thoughts?
