Twin Souls

QUESTION: Masters, could you explain a bit about twin souls? I am not sure that I believe in this phenomenon. I have been told that my friend and I are twin souls and that through many lifetimes we have worked together to help each other grow.
Now, we seem to be at a stage where there is some ill-feeling and we’re not helping each other at all. What has happened here? I would like our relationship to be mutually beneficial again.   ~Angela

ANSWER: Your twin soul is the last part of the Source that you separated from when you became a unique person. They are sometimes referred to as Siamese twins that have been separated. To find your twin soul, or flame as it is sometimes called, makes you feel complete as you cannot feel complete by yourself. Most of the time twin souls do not make arrangements to meet on Earth because all they would be concerned with is each other and they would not get to the learning of their lessons.

What is more common is to work with members of your soul group. These are the souls that came into being at the same time your soul did. They number up to 144, but you have intimate relations with only about 12 to 24. These are the souls with whom you make all your major contracts before coming to Earth. You have been with them many times and they know you the best.

Your friend is a soul mate. Contracts were made between you to stimulate learning about various lessons while you were both here. You have completed most of those contracts and now, to maintain a friendship, you will have to work at it, just as you would for any friendship involving a non-soul mate, to establish a plan to assist you both in your growth.
