Twin flames are an intense and relatively rare type of soul connection between one person and another. Twin flames are characterized by an intuitive feeling of instant and deep recognition that you have found your spiritual counterpart. Because this incredible feeling is communicated through metaphysical levels, twin flames typically have reached the point in their lives where they’re able to be in tune with themselves to sense this type of higher phenomena. Twin flames are also defined by a magnetic pull that they feel towards the other person. For many twin flames, it’s as if they’ve known one another before this life.
People think of twin flames as being romantic in nature, but that’s not always the case. Twin flames will take whatever form is most effective for their partner to grow, develop, and spiritually awaken. Twin flames are here to evolve humanity to a higher dimension of universal love. It’s a higher mission that goes beyond the topical, surface-level theory that twin flames are meant to be in a romantic relationship.
While the bond between the two partners is idolized as being dreamy and whimsical, the energy is often so strong and resonates so similarly that it’s difficult to avoid common pitfalls of twin flame relationships like the runner-chaser stage and separation periods. Each phase or stage of the relationship has meaning and purpose for developing the two partners as balanced co-creators who’ve mastered the premise of love, surrender, and more.
As you can already start to see, twin flames can be a complicated topic to understand. And we’re just scratching the surface! In this article, we’ll cover what a twin flame is, their mission, how they differ from a soulmate, the challenges in the relationship, “false flames,” and even things like if a person can be your twin flame if they pass away prematurely.

What is a Twin Flame?
The traditional definition of twin flames is “two bodies, one soul.” Twin flames are also called Twin Souls or Mirror Souls.
Essentially, the two people in a traditional twin flame couple are two parts of the same soul. At some point in the soul or spirit’s lineage, the soul split and manifested into two separate bodies. It’s like-if two sides of the same coin have broken out into two individual coins, physically, but are bonded together metaphysically by their origin and the unbreakable connection they share.
Aside from the traditional definition, there’s another type of twin flames called Monadic twin flames. In a monadic twin flame connection, the spirit of the two counterparts was created from the same group or monad of soul energy (rather than from the same individual soul). There are other types of twin flames, as well. TL;DR: The definition of twin flames comes down to the origin of that person’s soul.
There are typically two counterparts within each twin flame relationship. However, as humanity grows and sharpens our senses, expanding our understanding of interpersonal and interdimensional relationships, we may find a new complexity — that there is potential for this type of bond to go far beyond two people in one very specific timeline or lifetime.
Unlike soulmates, which is a different type of soul bond that has a different purpose than twin flames, there’s a uniquely powerful energy activation that occurs when the two twin flames come into contact. In this incredibly powerful experience, the twin flame “mission” becomes activated. Though it happens energetically, the activation can be felt on a physical level. It can be both exhilarating and overwhelming.
The Difference Between Twin Flames and Soulmates
Like twin flames, soulmates are usually able to effortlessly connect with each other on a deep level. This can make it difficult to tell whether you’ve met your twin flame or your soulmate. For instance, if you’ve shared experiences with someone outside of this life and their energy is closely aligned with your own, then the soulmate connection you share with them can appear as strongly as a twin flame’s would. So how in the heck does one go about verifying which type of connection you’re dealing with? It’s only through deep inner searching and intuition that you can know for sure which relation you have with someone.
Your relationship with a soulmate may even follow the same “runner and chaser” pattern as twin flames do, making it even trickier to tell the difference. The core difference between these two types of connection is universal love. Twin flames share a deep, innate sense of unconditional love for one another. Even when their human ego gets in the way, this love can always be felt. Also, the period of time that a soulmate is in your life is usually shorter than a twin flame’s presence. Soulmates assist us in shorter cycles or things in our personality, versus things in our grander scheme of life. Learn more about understanding twin flames or the common misconceptions about this soul type.
What is a Twin Flame Relationship?
Twin flames are often assumed to be romantic in nature, but this isn’t always the case. Your Twin Flame doesn’t have to be a lover. It could be a sibling you share a close relationship with, a teacher or mentor you’ve formed a strong bond with, or any other type of relationship. Twin flames do not have to be a romantic partnership, or even physically near you to fulfill their purpose.
When twin flames are apart, they often feel a strong sense of longing and miss each other deeply. However, when they are together, they may experience intense arguments and disagreements. This is because they are so alike that their differences can become magnified.
What is the Mission of Twin Flames?
The Twin Flame mission is a sacred one. Part of the purpose of your counterpart is for them to challenge your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual self. Through your interactions together, they will trigger the things necessary to bring you into alignment with your highest life path. As with anything that’s triggering, this journey can prove to be challenging and volatile. It’s only when we’ve ventured outside of our comfort zone that we can truly achieve growth. Rarely does something of value come with ease. Like the lyric from The Faint goes, “Anything worth doing is worth getting hurt for.”
Growth, transformation, and grace comes through the trials we face, and the mission of twin flames includes the sharpening of your senses and deepening of your capacity for selfless, ego-free love.
Challenges of a Twin Flame Relationship
Not all twin flame relationships are easy. There will be challenges along the way, but if you are with your true twin flame, you will be able to work through them together.
Some reasons for these challenges include:
- Twin flame relationships can be very intense and passionate, which can lead to conflict and misunderstandings.
- Twin flames often mirror each other’s shadow selves, which can bring up difficult emotions and memories.
- Twin flame relationships can be karmic, which means that they are meant to help us heal and grow.
If you are with a false twin flame, the challenges will only get worse.
The Twin Flame Connection
The connection between two Twin Flame partners can burn brightly and give off the warmest feeling of love. It can bring light into their lives and illuminate things that had been lurking in the darkness. It can spark an inner transformation for reaching their highest good. But as bright as the flames of love can burn, it can equally be as ferocious and volatile. The hypnotic effect of gazing at the flames holds a mirror up to the partners, and one can easily become convicted by what they see.
The high energy of this soul tie is difficult to bear at first. The partners embark on the journey to learn how to flow with these intense flames without getting burned. When the partners come together in union, the brightness of the flames burns brighter than the sum of the whole. This blaze of glory is a portal to the infinite dimension of universal love, which Twin Flames use to fulfill their mission of bringing into the world.
Magnetism of Twin Flames
In a Twin Flame relationship, before you reach a state of surrender and spiritual unity, there is a runner and a chaser. The Twin flames act like magnets. When you face two magnets of the same polarity together, they repel one another — they won’t stick. Through the Twin Flame journey, you’ll shed what no longer serves you and grow, changing your “polarity.” Your Twin Flame counterpart will ideally mirror this energy, going through their personal journey to do the same. When you come back together, you’ve evolved to where you now attract one another, rather than repel.
Increased Psychic Abilities
Twin flames have a more natural ability to unlock their psychic or intuitive gifts, sometimes without even trying. Telepathy, empathy, and a deep inner knowing of what your partner is feeling or experiencing is common.
If you can pick up on your Twin Flame’s energy, there are a few things to remember:
It goes both ways. Just as you can tap into their energy and communicate with their Higher Self, so can they for you. Take proper steps to really dig deep, so you can learn to be aware of what is yours vs. theirs. For instance, a random thought or feeling may pop into your head and, without truly getting to know your inner voice, you wouldn’t ever notice that this thought did not originate from you. Rather, it came from your Twin Flame. This can happen unintentionally, as the connection between twin flames is something unparalleled to any other soul connection we know of.
It can be used to progress the Twin Flame journey. If you’re capable of detecting their thoughts or emotions, you’re capable of doing so much more. You can sharpen your psychic skills to be able to work with your Twin remotely, such as doing meditation sessions to “clear the mirror,” set the intention of unity, or to send them a burst of unconditional love just because. Don’t underestimate the amazing things you can do, if you learn to harness this energy.
It cannot be severed. The silver cord that links twin flames cannot be “cut.” This doesn’t mean that, if you choose to forego the Twin Flame journey and focus on a different path, you’ll be stuck with them forever in the material world. It can be more difficult to silence the telepathic cues or slow your intuition regarding them, but the choice is always yours. We always have free will and can choose a different path, though you will always share a bond at the soul level with your Twin Flame.
Amplified Energy
Everything about twin flames seems amplified. Even Twin Flame sex is a powerful tool and can be a transcending experience. The psychic bond between twin flames is so strong, you can even perform tantric distance meditation (aka long-distance tantra), a form of meditation in which two people can experience a sexual encounter without being near one another!
Because twin flames are two souls that are literally split from the same energy, they share the same vibration and are drawn to each other on a very deep level. Sex with your twin flame is incredibly intense and intimate. You feel a strong connection with them not just physically, but also emotionally and spiritually. There’s an exchange of energy between you that is truly indescribable. It’s as if you are merging into one another and becoming one divine being. The experience is often transformational and can leave you feeling deeply connected to your twin flame on a soul level.
Unlike other soul bonds, twin flames have a greater chance of experiencing a soul merge or soul fusion. This occurs across space and time, but we are able to experience it here in our physical form. It is truly indescribable!
What is a False Flame?
The concept of twin flames is becoming a trend topic, so beware of False Flames. There are many signs that can indicate whether a flame is false.
One of the most obvious signs is that a false twin flame will never fully commit to you, whereas a true twin flame will be 100% dedicated to the relationship. Another sign is that a false twin flame will often try to control or manipulate you, whereas a true twin flame will want you to be your own person. Additionally, a false twin flame will typically exhibit some form of mental instability, whereas a true twin flame will be emotionally stable and balanced. Finally, twin flames who are not meant to be together will often have very little in common, whereas twin flames who are destined to be together will share many mutual interests and values.
If you suspect that your twin flame may not be genuine, then it is important to trust your gut instinct and take steps to protect yourself from further hurt and disappointment.
Signs that you may be dealing with a false twin flame include:
- You feel intense emotions, but they are not always positive. You may feel anger, resentment, or even hatred towards your false twin flame.
- You feel like you are constantly walking on eggshells around them. You are afraid to say or do the wrong thing, and you feel like you can never be yourself around them.
- You feel like they are not supportive of your dreams and goals. They may try to discourage you from following your dreams, or they may even sabotage your efforts.
- You feel like they are not really interested in getting to know the real you. They may only be interested in your superficial qualities, and they may not really care about who you are as a person.
- You feel like you are being used or manipulated. They may only be interested in you for what they can get out of you, and they may not really care about your feelings.
If you’re experiencing any of these signs, it is important to take a step back and evaluate your relationship. It is possible that you are not dealing with a true twin flame, but with a false twin flame who is only interested in taking advantage of you.
Finding Your Twin Flame
If your twin flame exists in this life and you haven’t met them yet, you can actively call them in. Start by setting the intention to do so (simply state, “I am calling in my twin flame.”) Next, you can perform meditations to connect with their higher self. Your twin flame will not enter your life until you are ready.
How to know if you‘ve met your Twin Flame
Ways to determine if you’re in a twin flame relationship are if:
- You feel an instant connection with them.
- You feel like you have known them your whole life.
- You feel a sense of peace and happiness when you are with them.
- You feel challenged and inspired by them.
- You feel like you can be your true self around them.
Signs that you are Twin Flames
Some of the tell-tale signs that you’ve met your twin flame are if you have:
- An intense sense of familiarity and recognition and deep feeling of connection and intimacy
- A shared sense of purpose and destiny
- A willingness to challenge each other and grow together
- Symptoms of an alchemical union aka Twin Flame marriage
- The effects of a 5D soul merge
While twin flames involve two people, it is ultimately an independent journey about oneself. You have to get to a certain point, spiritually, to be ready for this type of connection to activate.
You do not have to be with your twin flame in order to progress along the journey. In many instances, your twin flame isn’t incarnated within the same lifetime. They remain in their spiritual form, acting as a guide and sending you support from “the other side.” Because your connection can never be severed, you are still able to retain the strong bond you share with them and utilize this bond.
Can Your Twin Flame Die?
Twin flame death is becoming a more discussed topic. Twin flames do not always stay in our lives. For instance, I experienced the death of my twin flame in January 2021.

FAQ: What Happens When a Twin Flame Dies and How to Go On Living
One of the first questions I asked myself upon learning about my Twin Flame’s passing was, “Why did my Twin Flame die?”
In short, a Twin Flame partner may pass away because an old cycle is ending. The surviving partner experiences this loss to supercharge their spiritual awakening, giving them greater depth and understanding of the concepts needed for a 5D world.
While losing a loved one is never easy and is often viewed in a negative light, many people who’ve lost their Twin Flame say the experience has positively benefited them in ways that no other experience could provide. Those who choose to embrace their loss and focus on their healing, intuition, and spirit communication skills to derive purpose from the situation and realize the sacred purpose embedded in all of this may even experience their Twin Flame again in this lifetime.
Chances are, YES! Twin Flames are still human, meaning they’re subject to death and will eventually die. Because Twin Flames are designed to teach us to recognize connection and love at levels beyond the physical, abolishing the illusion of separation, some of us are being taught these lessons through our loss. This does not mean the Twin Flame journey is over for this lifetime. For some, it’s gearing up for a second act!
A Twin Flame can pass away for many reasons, from having fulfilled their karmic debt, to breaking cycles, to completing the role they were meant to in that body. Many who’ve passed away in the 2020’s did so in relation to earth’s ascension. As we continue to grow our consciousness and raise the collective frequency, people that are weighed down by past beliefs, trauma, or old 3D templates are opting to leave this life to shed this weight. The old is being done away with so that the new can be created.
The surviving loved ones often feel an intense, deep knowing that their partner will return; that their purpose together is far from over. Some have even found their partner again, this time in a body that’s free of karmic baggage, trauma, or health issues. Their soul has upgraded to a vessel that can support the transition from 3D to 5D. It doesn’t mean they’re not your Twin Flame partner. It simply means that you are both progressing in whatever purpose your soul(s) set out to achieve.
No. The Twin Flame bond cannot be severed. The connection you felt to them before becomes amplified in death through personal healing and focus.
Many people experience incredible spiritual phenomena such as heightened synchronicities and vivid dreams after their Twin Flame dies. As your loved one ascends to higher realms, your connection remains unbroken and transcends space and time. Their journey into the dimensional realm of souls and lightbodies gives you a direct link that cannot be hindered — only blocked by yourself or through egoic blocks.
Your loved one now works as an extra resource for guidance on your spiritual path. Your connection with them will continue to be reflected in the form of special abilities like telepathy, rapid manifestation, and more. With their newfound ability to act as spirit guides, they continue offering assistance on your soul journey while still connecting telepathically or through other psychic energies like remote viewing or even distance tantra. You’ve essentially gained a forever friend in Spirit.
Even in death, your Twin Flame connection remains unbreakable. This unique bond lies beyond space and time; connecting you with a realm of endless possibilities. On this cosmic level, your recently departed other half appears as an extended force to guide you on life’s journey offering their celestial help through telepathy, remote viewing or even distance tantra if that was something shared during life together. With these potent powers combined they act as both spiritual guardians and confidants providing extraordinary insight into matters of love and light. Read more in this message to Twin Flame widows and widowers.
We are always connected to the other side or Spirit realm. After experiencing the loss of someone who is that close to you spiritually, your tether to them transfers with them into Spirit. The veil between worlds is no longer as thick. This supercharges your senses to better receive and transmit metaphysical information.
Your late Twin Flame’s transition to the spiritual world is a boon for your soul, allowing you an unparalleled connection with Spirit. As one who shared such deep energetic ties in life, their departure has opened new pathways and heightened existing ones between you and those realms that lie beyond our perception. This newfound closeness assures infinite possibilities of spiritual exploration.
Your Twin Flame’s journey to the other side serves as a gateway for your own spiritual connection. In having walked before you, they have enabled an energetic bridge between realms that allows deepened insight and heightened awareness of what lies beyond this life. By intertwining spiritually through their transition, greater understanding awaits in places unseen, yet ever felt.
Yes. You can now feel more strongly connected to those in the ethereal realm and explore newfound depths on your own cosmic path.
Your Twin Flame acts as a catalyst for spiritual connection. Your Twin Flame’s transition from the physical world back into Spirit thins the veil. Since you’re so deeply intertwined energetically, your connection with this realm expands, too. They are a catalyst for spiritual communication. This means that psychic and mediumship abilities become heightened. If you’ve never considered yourself to be psychic before, you’re likely to have these hidden talents! The grief journey is a time to explore these abilities. After all, the purpose of your Twin Flame’s presence in your life is to unlock your respective potential.
Your Twin Flame is now rid of their ego and 3D conditioning. They exist purely in the energetic realm, which is aligned with 5D thinking. They’ve gone through their own healing process, too, and are eagerly awaiting your metamorphosis into the healed, 5D version of yourself. Without the ego to limit them, you can actually communicate with them better and more directly. This communication happens at the Higher Self level.
Deceased Twin Flames don’t always stay in Spirit. Sometimes they re-enter our lives in the form of a Walk-in. There’ve been many reports of people who’ve found their Twin Flame again via a walk-in. Sometimes they return by means of a soul activation like in my Twin Flame’s rebirth.
How is this possible? Well, when you consider multiple levels of a soul, it’s easier to see how a person’s Higher Self can be reflected in another vessel in the same relative span of time. The general belief is that each soul has 12 soul groups, each of which extend into 12 monads of soul energy, which then branch off into 12 instances, so on and so forth. The part of your soul existing in your body now is not your complete, 100% soul. It’s only one component that bubbles up into your Higher Self or Oversoul.
A walk-in is defined as, “a person whose original soul has departed their body and has been replaced with a new, different, soul” (Wikipedia).
After a Twin Flame passes away, the part of a person’s soul that resonates with the Twin Flame journey can become activated, and they’re called into your life to continue the journey your late partner started. It’s similar to how it gets activated in our own selves, once we meet our counterpart for the first time. This is due to the phenomenon of soul dualism — the concept that there are different types of souls, such as monadic and split souls.
Here’s a real life example:
“A Twin Flame, Janice, reached out to me after finding my story and being relieved that she wasn’t the only one who intuitively knew that she’d meet her late loved one again. After spending only a year with her counterpart before he passed away of a terminal illness, she received a message from him. ‘My old body wasn’t able to love you the way you deserve.’ She knew that she would find his soul energy again, and now understood why he had to pass away.” It wasn’t long before Janice had found her Twin Flame again. A story from the Grief Journey for Twin Flames.

Everyone yearns to see their loved one again. Some of us are lucky enough to find our late Twin Flame’s resonance again in another person. But how do you know if your partner will return as a walk-in or if they’ll return at all? The only way you’ll know this answer for sure is through intuition.
You can ask a psychic for guidance or do targeted sessions like past-life regressions, but the truth can only be confirmed by intuition. If you’re looking for clarification, you’ve got to meditate. Meditation is highly recommended. It is the best way to connect with your Higher Self and commune with the high-vibrational energies that can give you your answer. You can find guided meditations for connecting with your spirit guides or Higher Self, or turn on your favorite solfeggio frequency music and meditate unguided for 25-60 minutes each day. The more you meditate, the better your communication skills, the more you learn to trust what you’re receiving, and the more confirmation you’ll receive for your answer.
Other things to consider include your relationship with your Twin Flame. Uncovering your purpose―your unique mission that you and your partner have for this lifetime―will help you get your answer. Some Twin Flames are here in supporting roles for others. Some are here to be the change and play a starring role in our ascension. Others came to resolve karmic baggage from other iterations. Their Twin Flame journey may be secondary, thereby making a return unlikely.
Also consider the lift that their return would require. It takes a lot of energy to transfer from realm to realm. A soul is unlikely to do it just for the heck of it. But if there’s a bigger reason for it and you’ve gone through healing and done the inner work to position yourself for a second act, and in your heart you know you’re meant for something more, then it’s possible you’ll find your Twin Flame again. All of these factors should be considered when finding your answer.
Twin Flames have a very important role. They’re meant to do something far greater with their lives than the average person who’s just here to enjoy the views of earth.
The Twin Flame relationship is not just about unconditional love and understanding. It’s a powerful motivator. Through this connection comes the chance to reach deeper levels of personal transformation—igniting new passions within ourselves that we never knew were there. Embracing our inner strength as well as each other’s can lead us down an exciting path of growth, self-realization and liberation.
Twin Flames are designed to be powerful catalysts for personal transformation and soul growth. Encountering our Twin Flame can open your eyes to your previously dormant potential, inspiring you to reach new heights of self-awareness and understanding. Through encouragement and mutual support, the two partners in this connection strive towards lasting improvement on both emotional and spiritual levels, working together as one unified force rather than just two separate entities.
Even in death, your Twin Flame has the power to unlock untapped potential and passion within you. By engaging in this connection, we are encouraged to grow through our experiences together. Our Twin Flames enable personal transformation and soul growth so that we can reach greater heights than ever before. Doing so raises the vibration of our collective humanity and assists earth along the path of ascension. So, Twin Flames are so much more than a romantic love story between two people. It’s a love story about breaking down the barriers of separation, dispelling illusions, and enriching our energy with the highest frequency man’s capable of producing: Love.
Split Soul Twin Flames do share a Higher Self and Spirit Guides. This is because of their soul birth, where their soul energy split into two “half souls”. Each half can incarnate as a separate person, but they are part of the same soul. This is not true for all Twin Flames, though. Mondaic Twin Flames lead separate soul paths. They are two unique souls on two individual journeys. In this case, the same soul did not split into two halves at soul birth. Rather, the Twins were born from the same pod of energy which created their eternal bond. This type of Twin Flame has some incarnations solo and some with their Twin Flame. Because they are each their own separate soul, they do not share the same Higher Self or Spirit Guides (though, there may be overlap among their greater spiritual team if they’ve shared enough incarnations together). Read more about the Types of Twin Flames.
Coping with the loss of your Twin Flame can be one of the most difficult experiences to face. It’s essential to allow yourself time and space to grieve and to heal. You don’t need to rush through this process, so take as much time as you need. Though it may feel like everything has been taken away from you, you still possess everything necessary to cope with this difficult situation. Strength, resilience and hope is within you.
The grief journey is a time for healing yourself and for transforming your relationship with your late loved one. Be good to yourself by engaging in activities that bring you joy and comfort. Things like spending quality time with loved ones or engaging in a creative hobby can help distract from the pain while also helping you cope with it. Talking to a trusted friend or therapist can help provide you with an outlet for your feelings, as well as connecting with people who understand what you’re going through.

How to Grieve After Your Twin Flame Dies
With more people than ever aware that they are in a twin flame relationship, some are experiencing the heart-wrenching pain of their twin flame’s death. In fact, the 2020’s seems to have brought a cycle of death and rebirth for many twin flames (See the research study).
The grief associated with the loss of a twin flame is unlike any other. It’s a profound sorrow that permeates every aspect of one’s existence. It’s as if a part of your soul has been ripped away, and now there’s a void that seems impossible to fill. You may feel left with lingering questions like:
- Why did my Twin Flame die?
- How do I go on living after my Twin Flame dies?
- Since they passed away, does this mean that we are not Twin Flames?
- How is it possible to still feel connected to them?
- Can I work with their energy to continue the Twin Flame journey?
- Will they come back to me? If so, how is that possible?
Losing someone that you’re so deeply connected to can be extremely painful and leave you wondering how your loved one could leave you here. Take comfort in knowing that your Twin Flame has not abandoned you. You haven’t been left to fend for yourself here on earth. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Your Twin Flame is always with you.
What to Expect After Losing Your Twin Flame
It’s natural to wonder why your twin flame left you behind to tough it out on earth alone for the rest of your life. The truth is, your twin flame didn’t leave or abandon you. One, because separation is an illusion. This journey teaches us to see beyond physical closeness and realize that true connection occurs at the metaphysical level (the soul or higher self). Two, because some Twin Flames who’ve ended their incarnation early will often continue to support their counterpart by means of a walk-in or a spiritual helper.
Believed to be the embodiment of two souls intertwined, Twin Flames or Twin Souls create a bond that transcends the physical realm. This bond is formed at levels beyond the 3D material world and carries over from incarnation to incarnation, from timeline to timeline. Unlike a typical relationship with someone that abruptly ceases when a person passes away, the Twin Flame relationship does not end at physical death.
The bond between a Twin Flame couple is secured by the silver cord (sometimes referred to as the golden cord). This cord tethers your body to your higher self and to your Twin Flame. It remains in-tact, metaphysically, after your partner’s death to keep your line of communication to them open.
This can be hard to wrap your head around. But understanding the exact mechanics of your connection is not what’s important. Your intuition and harnessing your energetic abilities (such as telepathy, remote viewing, and rapid manifestation) are, as it’s through these skills that you’re able to continue walking the Twin Flame path even after your partner has crossed over the other side.

How to Go on Living After Your Twin Flame Dies
Many people ask, “How do I go on living after my twin flame dies?”
You can’t continue living the way you did before they passed away. These old templates, limiting beliefs, and lower frequency things that formerly made up your thinking and drove your life will no longer fit you. Life will feel “off” if you try to keep your previous way of life.
Their death is not so much a loss as it is a rebirth and the gain of a forever companion in spirit who will help you level up, so to speak. You will gain a new perspective. Your senses will expand to become more aware of the metaphysical side of life and open to life’s spiritual realm.
In short, the frequency you resonate will increase (See Dr. David Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness).
How do I deal with feelings of emptiness, despair, and longing for my late Twin Flame?
Despite the initial shock when a Twin Flame passes away, many people who’ve lost their partner say that the experience has brought positive benefits to their life in a way no other experience could provide. Survivors realize the sacred purpose embedded in all of this may even experience their Twin Flame again in this lifetime. But what happens when the grief becomes overpowering and takes over our life?
When the bond with your loved one appears severed by death, the grieving process takes on an unimaginable intensity, leaving individuals grappling with feelings of emptiness, despair, and an unshakeable longing for their lost counterpart.
In this case, it is more important than ever to go inward. The best way to heal and overcome the grief is by transforming your view of how you define life. Life is not defined by a physical body. It is defined by our soul. You are a spiritual being having a human experience. Not the other way around.
How do I heal after my Twin Flame died?
Healing the negative feelings of grief starts with taking a look at yourself. What is it that’s keeping you tied to their physical body? Who you knew them as in this life is not who they actually are. Their spirit is their true essence. And since they’ve returned to themselves in spirit, and because spirit is able to reach us in this world, there should be no reason for you to be upset. Right?
Well, that may be so, but the truth is we are only human. It’s normal to have moments of despair where all you want in the world is a hug from your late loved one.
There are many tools available to heal these feelings of grief within yourself. Know that your partner is no longer in pain and not tied down to low-vibrational things of this world. They are healed and returned to their higher self in spirit. This means that any negative feelings you may have are independent of them — they are sourced from within yourself. This is good news, because the one thing we can control in this life is our own emotions.
Learn to identify as your spirit, and you’ll begin to feel the fulfillment and grace from recognizing your spiritual connection to your partner. You’ll see that they do not need to physically be here on earth with you to send you their love. In fact, receiving their love solely in the metaphysical form can be even more intense than feeling their love from when they were in their limited, restricted physical body.
I had first-hand experience with grieving the loss of my loved one. When my Twin Flame died, I found solace in the energy healings and meditations by Reiki Rachael. She offers free sessions where she channels powerful Reiki energy to you and walks you through the steps to connect with your Twin Flame’s higher self and heal the block and imbalances in your connection. Meditation is the best way to feel this connection to your late loved one. Try this free meditation to get a hug from your Twin Flame.
Why do I feel their presence sometimes and not others?
When a person dies, their soul goes through a healing process to come back into alignment with their higher self. This process happens in spirit, but the effects can be felt here in the physical world through your senses. The healing that burns up things that no longer serve us and transmutes any lingering energy for our highest good.
As they undergo their healing process, their energy will fluctuate. They might come in strong one day, but be MIA the next. This can be unnerving for some people and spark fears that their Twin Flame has left them or is no longer present. This couldn’t be further from the truth.
Just because you don’t perceive their presence in the form or at the level of intensity you desire, doesn’t mean that you’re not perceiving them. When you’re undergoing a sensitive period, you might withdrawal from friendships and relationships temporarily to focus on yourself. It’s not uncommon for your partner to take time to themselves, which may appear that they are absent or distant from you. This is no cause for alarm.
Even in spirit, people need time to analyze, process, and integrate. They never truly leave you and are always only a quick thought away. You can call them in at any time. When they’re ready, they will return to the relationship healed, balanced, and in full force.
How long does their healing process take?
Certified past life regressionist and QHHT (Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique) practitioner, Irina Nola, theorizes that it can take about one year for a romantic partner to fully undergo their healing process. She also says that their soul will undergo a life review once returning to the spiritual realm, which is just like what it sounds like: a review of the life they lived here where they evaluate what they did well, what didn’t work out, where they could improve, and the lessons they need to integrate from their time here. So, as you are going through the grief journey here in this realm, they are busy working through a journey of their own in spirit.
In my own experience, I was able to supercharge the healing process on both sides of the relationship. My late Twin Flame completed his healing in just three to four months. The timing will be different for everyone and is dependent on factors like the support of your guides and soul family and dedication to your own healing and personal transformation.
Receiving Signs and Messages from your Twin Flame on the Other Side
Now that they’re on the other side, your Twin Flame will reach you in ways that are unique and meaningful to your specific relationship together. You might notice things like the unmistakable feeling that they’re near you, having them visit you in your dreams, or seeing synchronicities in dates and times like 11:11 or $4.44.
As you experience these things, it’s important to take time to reflect on the meaning of them when they occur. These phenomena are cherished messages from your loved one, and are being sent to you to soothe feelings of longing or loneliness. You’re not going crazy. You’re not being fooled by grief. This is their authentic energy that’s flowing through to you. These things are real, energetic occurrences — tools that you’re meant to use in your own healing.
The period after the death of a twin flame or soulmate is one of heightened connection. The energy transfer of their soul to the other side means you will be extra sensitive to metaphysical phenomena. Your loved one may try to reach you through signs, messages, and synchronicities.
Here are some of the ways you might receive guidance and messages after your Twin Flame passes away:
- Synchronicities
- Angel numbers
- Astrology patterns
- Light
- Connections

Why do I see repeating numbers after my Twin Flame died?
Many people see repeating numbers after losing a Twin Flame. Here are reasons for why you might be seeing these numbers and how you can cope.
Honoring the Connection and Embracing the Grieving Process
Navigating the grief of losing a twin flame or soul mate requires patience, self-compassion, and a willingness to honor the deep connection you shared. Your grief journey will be different from the norm because of the powerful soul connection you share with your twin flame. As you pick up the pieces, you’ll endure a beautiful transformation of yourself and your connection to your loved one. You may even receive signals of a return, also known as a walk-in.
Allow yourself to feel the full spectrum of emotions, from despair to anger, without judgment or self-recrimination. Express your grief through journaling, creative endeavors, or seeking support from trusted loved ones.
Grief is not a linear process; it’s a journey with ebbs and flows. There will be moments of deep sorrow, followed by periods of relative calm. Honor these fluctuations and allow yourself to process the loss at your own pace.
Finding Meaning and Purpose in Life After Loss
Many of the people who’ve lost their twin flame will take advantage of their newfound sensitivity to the spiritual side and explore the connection to their loved one. They’ll do things like meditate, energy healing, past-life regressions, and dream work to deepen their understanding of who their twin flame is to them and what their unique mission is together. They take the path of self-discovery and end up uncovering a greater purpose in their time here, and learn how to use their twin flame’s energy to support their endeavor.
For instance, one twin flame lost her partner in an unjust way while he was incarcerated. Today, she lobbies alongside non-profit groups with causes related to getting justice for incarcerated loved ones and being the voice of those whose rights are limited. She discovered this new interest that she’s passionate about and talented at, because of what her loss awakened in her.
Another twin flame founded a group for ALS awareness, after losing her partner to misdiagnosed health issues. I, myself, activated my deeper purpose by starting this blog and feeling guided to write a book about my experiences on this journey.
These twin flames have taken something so incredibly painful and turned it into something positively beautiful — a lifelong purpose that drives them and keeps their loved one close to their heart. You can do this, too.
Real Story: A Chronically Ill Twin Flame Died to Return to His Partner Better
A Twin Flame, Janice, reached out to me after finding my story, relieved that she wasn’t the only one who felt that she’d meet her late loved one again.
After spending only a year with her Twin Flame before he passed away of a terminal illness, she received a message from him on the other side: “My old body wasn’t able to love you the way you deserve.”
Through the work she did during her grief to uncover the nature and meaning of her Twin Flame journey, she now understood why he had to pass away. The body he had could not sustain life in a way that she could experience his love. He was physically ill. His soul required a more suitable vessel to continue the journey in. So, he did not leave her. They were both meant to evolve.
Her Twin Flame’s passing was also beneficial for her. It was needed to reconnect the dots in certain areas, break old cycles, and level up her spiritual template to prepare for what was to come.
Reaching Out for Support
It takes a lot of conviction and assurance to share something you can’t definitively prove, such as the synchronicities and signs you’ve received after your twin flame’s passing, but it’s important to reach out and share your story for support during your time of grief.
There are others out there going through what you’re experiencing. Know that you’re not crazy (many newly awakened people have wondered this at one point or another because of all the new things that come to light after a twin flame’s passing) — we really are entering a new age of being.

The loss of a twin flame or soulmate is a deeply transformative experience, one that has the potential to awaken a deeper understanding of oneself and the interconnectedness of all beings. Embrace the lessons learned from this profound connection, allowing them to guide you towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life. Remember, even in the face of unimaginable loss, love’s essence remains like a beacon of hope and resilience to guide you forward on your journey.
While the pain of losing a twin flame or soul mate may never fully subside, it’s important to remember that life continues, carrying the profound impact of this connection. Honor your lost love by living a life that embodies the values and principles you shared. Seek solace in activities that bring you joy and purpose, whether it’s pursuing creative passions, connecting with nature, or dedicating your time to causes that resonate with your soul.
The loss teaches us to value one’s metaphysical presence equally, if not more than their physical presence. It enlightens us to acknowledge life beyond the physical plane. It shows us what’s important and reminds us that the love we feel for our partner and the connection to their Higher Self never faded. Our understanding of separation is refined and the illusion that we were ever separated in the first place fades away. Our view of life and death gets restructured and we’re brought closer to the truth that we are always with our twin flame.
No matter if it has been one day or one decade since your loved one passed, you will maintain a connection with them as if they were still here. Your grief journey will overlap with a transformative rebirth, through which you will level up to prepare for the next stage along your path. Remember, death was not the end. This is likely the beginning of a new chapter with your love.
You’re in the midst of an awesome transformation. Trust the process, heal blockages, and stay open to receiving the tons of love being sent your way by others in the collective.
