I know what the message means. After years of the same thematic dream, today, I understand the simplicity of the message.
The basis of the dream contends with separation. In these reoccurring dreams, I am alone after a long relationship. My partner is gone without any forwarding information, yet the relationship was not officially ended. I feel a mixture of emotions usually abandonment ranking high on the list. Sometimes, I feel alone. There is usually a tinge of great sadness.
In other dreams, I am reunited with this person. The feeling is sometimes euphoric and usually very comfortable and secure. In most of these types of dreams I ask myself, “Why did we ever separate?”
The person is shown to me as someone I know on this Earthly realm. He may be my husband or a past endearing friend. At first, I felt confused by this, especially when the partner in the dream was my husband (though not married in the dream…always a boyfriend). I couldn’t understand why he left or why he didn’t call. I wonder why he didn’t end the relationship. It was as though a lapse of time passed, like a couple months, and suddenly I realize that I am without this partner. It’s just like waking up, after a long spell, to ask myself, “Where is he?”
There is at least one school of thought that when God creates us on the other side, we are born with a soul mate, a yin to our yang, a twin. I’ve seen it called twin flames. When we choose to come into this realm and live a life on Earth to evolve our own souls and to learn for God, rarely does our twin come to this realm at the same time. The twin souls evolve at different rates and choose different paths. Soul mates don’t stick together like glue. They are actually independent of each other, yet completely connected.
his Earthly existence can be very difficult, challenging and damaging while on this plane. And since we are here primarily for God, learning like one does in a classroom, we don’t need distractions. I think that we do deeply feel separated from the love of the other side, and we find familiar souls from the other side here to help us recall that love.
Chances are if you feel a kindredship or connection to someone, it is because you know each other from a past life or from the other side. The Mormons believe that when we marry and have children, that this family unit is together forever in the heavenly realm. The Mormons marry for eternity, and to a point this is true. My opinion is that when you cross over, you are not “married” to your family, but you definitely have a closer bond with them. Like soldiers, who bond during wars, life on Earth is sometimes like a warzone, and people who experience hardships together, and get through it, often bond. It’s a bond that only people who have been through extraordinary events together can understand.
Do we have deeper bonds with or love for some over others while here? My opinion is yes. The reason that we feel more connected to certain folks on Earth is most likely that we are probably closely interconnected on the other side. This includes deep and long lasting friendships and relationships that we experience here.
Some people we meet may come and go, and this is usually because we have something to learn from each other or there is a reason for having contact with each other. These are not our closest relationships, and may even be someone we don’t like or who gets under our skin for some unknown reason. This is not limited to just everyday people. They can be family members, friends, coworkers or that person you just encountered at the market.
The bottom line is that we are all here, on Earth, together, to either help each other learn, evolve or support each other.
With that said, back to the message.
Anyone who studies dreams realizes that dreams are rarely literal translations. We usually pull symbolic yet familiar images that help us feel more comfortable in the dream. Dreams are mostly symbolic not literal. At times, these familiar images may cause great discomfort and confusion, too, but this is because you are giving literal translation to the dream instead of trying to interpret the symbols.
In the aforementioned dreams, the feelings of separation, loneliness and abandonment are specifically dealing with my soul mate on the other side. My little Earthly brain translates this into something recognizable for me by using real people in my life, “Why would my beloved boyfriend just vanish without any word how to reach him?” I feel alone and sad.
What I am really experiencing is the separation from the heavenly plane. No has left me, and I haven’t left anyone. I am here merely to do a job…a job for God, the Creator, the Divine, the Goddess…or whoever you like to think of as your personal higher power.
I miss the other side, the love, my soul mate, and everyone else watching out for me and guiding me. Those hazy periods when I think that I am alone are simply those moments here on Earth when I forget about that link to the other side and my soul mate.
