Can a Karmic relationship stop a Twin flame relationship?
When it comes to relationships, common human beings, on a basic level, think of them as just that – relationships. But in reality, they are classified as – Karmic, Soulmate, and Twin flame. Basically, all these three types are connected to the concepts of souls, karma, past lives, etc.
All these three relationship types have their own features, plus and minus points, etc. We learned about karmic relationships extensively in a previous blog. We may experience all three, or only two or one of them in our lives, it will all depend on our past life actions and consequences.
But then, various questions emerge in the minds of people, like What if one type overlaps another or creates hurdles for other? Is it really possible? Well, life can be complicated in many ways; still, there can be certain rules about certain things right?
If you want to know whether a karmic relationship can stop a twin flame relationship, then you should know about them in brief and also the reasons why they happen. A karmic relation is never meant to last, it’s only meant to teach you lessons and finish the remaining karma between two souls. You can go through one to even ten such relationships depending on the amount of past life karma accumulated with several souls.
Karmic Relationship
Relationships are many times expected to be characterized by steadfast love, bliss, compatibility, comfort and a facile daily co-existence. A karmic relationship is the opposite of a ‘happily-ever-after’ tale. Here, nothing seems to work out so quickly at some point. The situation is extremely complex, and efforts to make the relationship work is like forcing a camel through the eye of a needle.
Rightly put, such an attempt is just like herding cats. This difficulty in connecting, in a more incorporeal term, is a karmic relationship. Sometimes, we may have been caught up in a fix or can identify people currently in such a situation. However, the shortcomings of your partner may not be the reason you’re in dire straits now.
Karmic astrologers believe that such a scenario is birthed out of ‘a soul agreement ‘in one’s past life. This soul agreement consists of contracts made in the spirit realm aimed at developing the person. All these are believed to have happened before one incarnates on earth.
Drawing from the above, an astrologer, Natalia Benson points that
“…a karmic relationship is typically one that challenges us, but it’s an opportunity to step into the most powerful version of ourselves.” “The purpose is to learn from the dynamic.”
It is then not a Karmic relationship if all it possesses is the challenges without something distinct to learn. But, will anyone find himself in such a fix without a lesson learnt? Your answer might be as good as mine.
Matter-of-factly, it is through this pain that a karmic force which in turn allows for profound transformation is triggered. “In a roundabout way, you realize that this person is a teacher who is helping you step into who you’re here to be,” she says. “We get into the karmic dynamic because we have to learn to love and respect ourselves.” Natalia opines.
Do you see it? Such an unbearable situation had been a class all along. Paradoxically, your seeming ‘lover’ who had been the nucleus of the complexities had been the teacher! Yes, you read it right. Bad relationships aren’t entirely bad. There is an advantage attached to such a disadvantage – call it a ‘sweet disadvantage’ if you must.
There is a ray of sunshine. We learn! Become better persons and more intriguingly, we, by swimming into a karmic relationship, have kept to an agreement made. It is impossible to avoid being in such a relationship if we ever had a soul agreement before incarnating.
That we’re somehow destined to be in them should not be seen as an odd at all. There are countless benefits; helping you to get a clear understanding of how you may be devaluing yourself is one. So, you can make healthier choices in the future, build a more stable personality and get equipped for the next level of your love life, or, fortunately, unfortunately, a new class in a karmic relationship.
What is a Twin flame relationship?
Every soul in existence has a twin flame, consider your twin flame as the other half of your own soul. Basically, every true and complete soul is androgynous having two halves in it – one is the male and the other is the female. They will begin their journey on this planet together, then may not meet again for the next few lifetimes. Then maybe they will come together during one incarnation and separate again for the next few.
One thing is sure though, almost all belief systems agree that at the end, when all your pending karma is cleared, your soul becomes pure and wise again, you will meet your twin flame for the one last time before becoming one, and one with the ultimate entity. If you ask which is the highest form or level of relationship, then it is the Twin flame. After that, comes the Soulmate, and the lowest level will be the karmic partner.
Meeting your Twin flame
In all the incarnations of our soul, we may meet our twin flame rarely, but will meet our soulmate more often; and will go through many of karmic relationships, all meant to teach us lessons and become a better soul. If you are destined to meet your twin flame in this life, then in all probability, you should assume that your karma debt with other souls has paid-off.
Many people may confuse a twin flame relationship with a karmic one because of the similarities. At the beginning of both the relationships, people experience a strong attraction and emotional charge, i.e. the initial phase is blissful in both, but later on, a karmic relationship turns selfish and painful, whereas a twin flame relation will become healing, fulfilling, and giving. A twin flame relationship being the ultimate, there is no way for any karmic relationship to come in between.
For you, it will all depend on how you feel with the person. If after some time you see issues cropping up in the relationship, negative emotions and virtues taking over, if you feel like running away from the relationship, then understand that you are in a karmic relationship. Such moments won’t occur in a twin flame relationship. Thus, if you will experience a twin flame relationship in this life, be assured that a karmic relationship will not stop it from happening.
Am I in a Karmic Relationship?
You are most likely going to be in one or more of such relationships in a lifetime. Or, you are currently journeying into one. There is a good chance that you would have been in a karmic relationship before reading this piece. So, here, the question of how you know if you’re in a karmic relationship will be answered. You may encounter some pointers to a karmic relationship such as;
Red Flags
Early enough, you may have noticed some indices that serve as pointers. Like – she can’t just get along with your conversations, or maybe he has to take charge of the conversation and win the arguments always. Or maybe she’s got a way of making fun of you in front of your friends. You decide to take the challenge and continue into the relationship with the hope of changing the persons or worse still manage the situation.
‘Red flags are personal’, says Benson—’we all have different triggers. But if you find yourself profoundly questioning or making excuses for your partner’s behaviour, it could indicate something more than an insignificant personality quirk’. “When you’re justifying something, you should pay attention to that,” says Benson. “A lot of times we see the red flags, but we still go into the relationship, and typically that can be because there’s a lesson that can be learned.” For example, in the two scenarios above, the relationship could be teaching you how to make decisive moves and speak up for yourself.
Feeling heavy or hard energy when you’re together
Like Romeo and Juliet’s story or a love affair characterized by countless roses, being around your loved one brings the roses to your cheek so much that you forget that there’s rarely any rose garden without thorns. Most karmic relationships could begin with such tonics.
Karmic relationships start as any relationship may—there’s usually a sweet beginning, where everything feels blissful and fated. But at some point, in this case, the partnership stops being fun and starts feeling like everything is forced, although you still share a super-strong connection. All relationships have rough patches, obviously, but in a karmic tie, there’s a pervasive weight you’ll feel in your body, Benson says. “You’ll know the difference at a visceral level between something that’s just a challenge and something karmic.” You tend to hold on.
Complex and conflicting emotions about the relationship
In reality, there’s this feeling of connection you still have with a person even when you are aware the relationship isn’t working at all. You call it love? Karmic relationships can come with a lot of contradiction.
Even though they’re tough, you can also feel very attached and magnetically drawn to the person and in love with their good qualities, making it hard to leave. You feel like hanging on and expecting something new to sprout out suddenly. Yes, you are not wrong, something new is going to evolve, and that will be a new you with lessons learnt.
But since it’s reasonable to not love everything about your partner, even in a healthy relationship, how can you know whether karmic roots are at play? “When something is right for you, it truly feels good—not just the high of romance, but on a core and visceral level, it feels solid,” says Benson. These good vibes transcend, say, the irritation you feel when your plus-one chews with their mouth open.
These relationships do not last as they fly off as comets immediately; the intended lessons are taught and learned. Some of which are intended to show you how to love others, yourself, to control your ego and become a better person. They are most likely to expose you to your dark sides and some undesirable parts of yourself while reminding you of your imperfections.
Karmic relationships put your worst fears just before you while bringing you to the realization of the fact that you cannot always cringe from them. You feel so connected, dependent and engrossed by the addictive aura that it triggers a connection between the parties in the relationship.
Can karmic relationships be appropriately managed?
Relatively. This romantic involvement born out of a person’s soul association to correct or heal previous life experiences or pain needs to be controlled to at least have healthy relationships. You want to have connections devoid of the fears of abandonment, excessive pains, and this can only be done by erasing the karmic energy.
You can do this by taking full responsibility for your actions, inactions, reactions, and state of mind, making conscious and observative attempts to keep them checked. The inability to control those have contributed to the problem and leading to a karmic relationship.
In a bid to stay off it or manage the karmic situation, making healthy choices while relating with your partner is a plus. All these will help you move towards people, locations, and thoughts that generate the best qualities inherent in you.
Karmic astrologers also believe that forgiving and letting go of grudges will help free you from some soul agreements that may not be to your advantage. Looking within yourself and taking notice of oddities that needs fixing and doing that will go a long way. Walking away from a karmic relationship most times does not guarantee the end of the karmic circle as jumping into many new connections as soon as the previous ones are close reopens the karmic bond with the former partner and the circle continues.
