I really enjoyed this article, especially the description of Balance Partners. I had never heard of this concept until reading this article and it has helped me to look at my romantic relationships/friendships with a new light. Sometimes I try to hold on to the good people that enter my life, but reading this article has allowed me to comprehend that it is okay for good people to mosey in and to mosey on out of my life and vice versa.
Balance Partners can be another aspect of your soul experiencing in the physical at the same time but in another body.

If you have a relative, friend, or acquaintance with whom you have a difficult relationship with, then this person is a karmic partner. Karmic partners are souls who have issues from previous lifetimes, so the wise ones say. They may have been enemies. They may have been partners, but their partnership has gone awry in a previous life. They may have been relatives, but owe many psychological debts to each other. If you had a relationship like this in a previous lifetime, then the emotional tones and soul memories of your difficult interactions are retained in this present life. A karmic partner can be anyone. And furthermore, you have many karmic partners! Sit and close your eyes, try to imagine your significant others. If you feel like a particular relationship has been very difficult and seem to evoke unnatural feelings of hate, then start to explore. This might be a karmic partnership.
Soul Mates
On the other hand, there is a relationship which is smooth, loving and has a harmonious quality to it. This is the soul mate. Soul mates have had good relationships in previous lives. They shared many lifetimes together and so are very compatible. Soul mates are souls who have been friends before, relatives before, good partners before, and even lovers before. You also have many soul mates.
Take a moment to consider your significant others. If a certain relationship is so stable as to have a spiritual quality in it, then it is a candidate for the soul mate level. Anyone can be your soul mate: your husband or wife, your girlfriend or boyfriend, your lover, your parent or child. It is important to consider that soul mates are not primarily romantic interactions. They are to be understood as spiritual partnerships.
Twin Souls/Twin Flames
And now, the legendary partnership called the twin soul.
It is said everything was created in pairs. Somewhere around the world there is a soul that is your other half, your perfect complement, the missing link of your being. This is the twin soul. You have absolute compatibility, perfect correspondence and incredible chemistry.
Two of the greatest poets of all time, Elizabeth Barrett and Robert Browning were husband and wife. To literature novices, Elizabeth is the author of the immortal poem "How Do I Love Thee, Let me count the ways......" They are twin souls. It is said their friends could feel the aura of their undying love and incredible chemistry even while entering their house. Their love is so pure that the ambience of their dwelling retained a trace of their bond. It was such a beautiful, loving marriage, already immortalized in song and poetry. And their friends could feel their love radiating in the very air! Oh, such love! However twin soul relationships tend to be short-lived. reason being is that we've seen so far: death, explosiveness from the intensity of being with your mirror, spiritual immaturity of one or both partners, and most often, obligation to an already committed relationship/marriage. All in all though everything is a learning process... some twin souls last forever.............
Balance Partners
Reality is about the return to balance.
Balance Partners are the people you meet along the way who help you create balance in your life.
In a time of the evolution of consciousness - balance partners would be on the same frequency saying and doing things that bring the awakening feeling.
As the program of our reality moves towards balance and closure - many will evaluate all aspects of their lives - physical, emotional, and spiritual. New connections will be forged to that end.
As you move through your spiritual journey balance partners will come into your life at the appointed time and place, as you attract them into your life.
You generally attract each other by synchronicity - meaning that there is something that will be shared by both people - after which they can remain close friends or stay for a while and move on as would a teacher. The door is generally open to meet again and share in the future. They remain in our lives for a period of time after learning lessons then can freely move on without a feeling of separation and loss.
You 'attract' each other as you are on the same frequency and have things to share. The synchronicities that develop between you stagger the mind and hence raise the frequencies of both people. The recognition should be there by both partners is generally fast and fun - the connection forming quickly.
A balance partner can live near you or far away. You may never physically meet. You can talk on the phone or email with each other. Your conversations may increase from infrequent to several times in a day as you are both growing in ways that you cannot with anyone else. Events become exciting. Common interests bring you together.
They can be of any age, sex, religion - from any culture and background - come from different walks of life - the point being they have entered your life to share information and experiences with you that enhance your journey and give you the feeling of moving closer to the spiritual mission that seems to embrace your soul and tug at your consciousness.
Though most of us have experienced balanced partners in love, work, family, and with friends - spiritual balance partners take on a new hue - as they are people you generally would not have expected to connect with up until your begin your spiritual journey - which is about frequencies of friendships - that go beyond the physical. Friends up until this point are people who fit into your lifestyle but balance partners in the spiritual realms are different - and can be far more stimulating as they address the find aspects - the awakening of your journey into awareness.
Once you connect - the excitement and shared communication seems unmatched by any other person you have met to date. You speak to each other frequently as you are helping each other remember who you are.
Spiritually you enhance each other's growth. It is an exciting time as you 'trigger' each other's awareness. It is as sometimes as if one of you has half of the information you both seek and the other the balancing half. You can share dreams - synchronicities - and more.
Balance Partners do not necessarily enter your life for romance - so please do not get caught up the romantic fantasy when you and the partner become closer and you think the person is meant to be for love and to trigger - be part of - the rest of your journey in the physical. That is rarely the case. Balance is the name of the game. Romance often complicates matters and the reasons for the friendship - which soon become lost in the emotional games of both partners. As most souls will never meet their Twin Flame in the physical realms - the Balance Partner is as important as the lover.
You can have more than one balance partner at a time as no one has all of your answers. Everyone is one their unique journey and along the way - we encounter each other - if only to get information.
You can meet more than one Balance Partner in your lifetime - and generally do.
Balance Partners can be another aspect of your soul experiencing in the physical at the same time but in another body.
They can help you work on your issues as they are there to guide and enhance your experience in a positive way. But if your balance partner is emotionally unstable - you may not be able to balance them - and may have to move on as trying to balance that person creates imbalance for you in areas that were once balanced. Balance partners are there for growth and fun not create greater imbalance in your life.
The remote journeys and meditations you share can be the most memorable travels of your lifetime - if only in consciousness.
Balance Partners are often vehicles that lead one or both partners to other people to enhance their growth. This can create a 'spider-web effect' as we are all linked. Don't allow ego or petty jealousies to stand in your way.
Please remember that the function of the Balance Partner is to create balance and understanding for both of you. Make it fun and uncomplicated or it will end and you will miss whatever opportunity for growth your souls have created. Messengers
Messengers can come from anywhere and generally stay for a moment in your life, relaying their messages, then they are gone.
They be someone you meet, a signpost along the road, something written on a billboard, the license plate of the car in front of you, something you see in a film - on TV - in a book - musical score, a famous saying or quotation, something overheard in conversation by two other people, in a dream sequence or meditation, just about anything, anywhere.
Perhaps you have seen or heard their message before, but now that you are in a different frequency of awareness, the information speaks to you of something more, as if in another harmonic.
The message cannot be received until the listener is paying attention and is on the right frequency.
It is most important to recognize these messengers and messages when they appear. If you miss them, your soul will most likely replay the message in another way until you 'get it!'
Understanding soul relationships is a complex subject that is both intriguing and rewarding.
