The twin flame relationship is the most intense relationship we enter in to in our time on this planet.

We each have one twin flame, a person who originates within the same soul and manifests as a mirror soul on Earth.

The purpose of our twin flame is to help us to complete our spiritual journey over the course of many lifetimes until we reach our ultimate goal together – twin flame ascension and reuniting with the Source.

This purpose necessitates an immensely strong spiritual connection.

And through this connection we can communicate telepathically with our twin flame – most of the time without even meaning to.

But can twin flames feel each other’s pain through this spiritual connection?

The Silver Cord

The connection we share is commonly referred to as the silver cord because that is how it manifests on the spiritual plane – as a silver beam of energy that stretches out from our heart chakra and across the spiritual plane, connecting at the other end with the heart chakra of our twin flame.

This connection carries all sorts of energies from both twin flames and serves to share those energies.

So when we feel any intense emotion, the unique vibrational frequencies of that strong emotion are sent across the connection without our participation at all.

This then manifests within the other person, usually as unexpected and foreign feeling emotions.

Pain

This obviously works for pain.

There have been many instances where someone has reported experiencing pain in their body that they have later found outmatched with what their twin flame was actually feeling at the time.

One report from a woman in Vancouver claims that she experienced searing pain in her leg one morning, completely unexplained. A visit to the doctor confirmed that there was nothing wrong.

A few days later, she was talking to her twin flame on the phone, and he mentioned that he had broken his leg a few days before – exactly when she had experienced the searing pain in her leg.

What had happened was that the intense pain her twin flame felt had pushed its way along their spiritual connection and manifested within her, causing her to have just an awful start to her day.

Emotional Pain

That’s all well and good, but it does not seem that useful for the twin flame relationship. Why would we need to feel each other’s injuries?

Well, the physical pain telepathy that we have just spoken about is actually a side effect of a different purpose of the spiritual connection – shared the emotional pain.

See, while it may be of limited use to feel the pain of our twin flame’s physical injuries, feeling their emotional pain is incredibly useful.

It helps to nurture empathy between the twin flames, strengthening their personal connection.

And this strengthening of the personal connection always tips over into a strengthening of the spiritual connection.

This will help us to achieve our spiritual goals and help propel us along our journey.
