Because they typically have a deep acceptance and love for you, you experience great comfort in their presence-as if you you’ve known them forever. Often, you’ll feel a strong attraction that is all-consuming and heightens your senses. Soul mate relationships can be intense and powerful. Unlike with your twin flame, these are relationships with other souls that can span lifetimes. Whether it’s a romantic partner, a friend, or a family member, your relationships with your soul mates will be powerful and encompass body, mind, and spirit. It’s commonly thought that you have only one soul mate, but in your life, you will likely encounter many. There are a few characteristics that twin flames share, says Smith-Leonardini, and a few things to know before you strike out to find your soul mate-or your other half. Which is why she works on identifying the twin flames of the world. Their relationship, according to Smith-Leonardini, can shift the collective consciousness of the planet. When these souls-these twin flames-reunite, something bigger happens. Some souls incarnate as two separate beings, says Smith-Leonardini: One soul split into two bodies.

So it follows that there may be several soul mates who come into and move out of our lives, both romantic and platonic. Like Smith-Leonardini, other intuitives we work with define these pairings as predestined and meaningful relationships intended to trigger spiritual growth. Contrary to popular belief, soul mates are not a forever deal, says clairvoyant and energy healer Jakki Smith-Leonardini.
