Twin Souls: A New Biological Theory

Twin Souls: A Biological Theory

Dear Readers

As the twin soul energies are rising on the planet and awakening further the masses, anchored in a direct stream of heavenly light flowing in from Egypt (Throat Chakra of the Worlod), here is a new theory in biology regarding souls in general and especially twin souls. This theory is based on actual documented cases being researched in an ongoing process by science and people world wide.

But first, again here to introduce the topic to readers who might hear about it the first time:

What is a Twin Soul?

Well, a twin soul is like half of the one whole soul, containing two twin souls forming masculine and feminine counterparts of each other. In spiritual dimensions, they are exact copies of each other, like a mirror to each other, in female and male version. That is due to always being merged and one in the spiritual dimensions (heaven).

Usually only one incarnates while the other stays in the spiritual realms, guiding the incarnated twin soul. They say, that both incarnate at the same time on Earth and meet each other when both are ready in their soul to ascend into the next life form. The next life form is pretty different than the earthly and temporary life form. Twin Souls will be always together, not needing separate learning experiences any longer. They will have developed their both self to a degree of full mastership of the mind and soul and it’s powers/skills. In the next life form, they will live in full consciousness of their “light body”, which is made out of white fire and bright lights and immortal. It is not made out of flesh and fixed. One can fly, change form and go to many places in the Universe by the power of pure thought.

“Think it and it appears.”

There are many stories out there, generally, of people having sensed these feelings of knowing another at the first meeting and feeling each other’s soul basically. There are examples of twin soul stories people published and put online and we can only recommend that you do your own research and try to RE-MEMBER your own memory of it.

It is the time now, for love to come back into your souls.

When Twinsouls are BOTH incarnated at the same time:

They do not have to look alike necessarily, due to possible different heritage and race. Let’s say, one twin incarnates as a Chinese man, while his female twin soul incarnates as a white American woman. Naturally and logically, they will not look alike at first sight, physically, plastically. Their biology will be somewhat different and in those cases, they might never even meet but sense each other still during their parallel lives on Earth.

Sometimes, they dream of each other. Many of us have had dreams of “strangers” at some time in our life, these dreams can be hints from your higher self and God.

If both twins are incarnated and have a somewhat similar heritage/race, then they will usually look alike and be alike in many ways. Biologically speaking, they will automatically share similar health issues, physical features like hand form, posture, have similar smiles, similar passions and interests. Yes, indeed, it can go that far.

The more a twin soul is complete in their experiences and ready to unite, the more they will be alike because it is the gravitational pull which morphs them naturally into the same appearance, feelings, even jobs and passions. That automatically has a big effect on the biology of the whole body, the vessel in which they incarnate. More about that below.

When only One Twin Soul incarnates:

When only one of the two incarnates and the other stays in spirit as a guide, one obviously cannot prove in any way if the two would biologically look alike, because there is only one body and one biology and no second to compare with our earthly limited scientific methods.

We welcome any drawings some of you might have made of your non-incarnated twin soul and personal stories. If you want to share your story, send us a message and we will be glad to be in touch with you.

When both incarnate and one passes back to spirit

In these cases, as in the well documented examples of Jean Cline and George Reeves (Twin Souls Merging), Susan Elsa and Michael Jackson and many more to be published within the next coming years, there is undeniable physical and biological evidence of “an adjustment of looks and physical properties, facial features” taking place in a Twin Soul incarnated when her/his Twin Soul passes and they start the process of merging back into one.

It is quite logical, that when both had two separate bodies and then one body is left and the two merge back into one, that it can include all levels including physical matter and the very biology of the body being influenced in a way that our science can measure.

In Jean Cline’s case, after George Reeves passed and started to merge with her, having a literal relationship between mortal and immortal spirit, her whole appearance began to change into the appearance of George Reeves.

In Susan Elsa’s case in goes even further. Both have such similar biologies and appearances, one can only think about the mirror theory of twin souls when seeing the opposing, mirroring cheek moles both have. Michael on his left cheek, Susan on her right cheek, as if they are a physically manifested twin soul mirror of each other, looking at each other in feminine and masculine versions.

After Michael’s passing, just as in Jean Cline’s case, Susan Elsa’s physical appearance began to change. Since 2005, Susan has been involved in paranormal scientific research and continues to go after her passion of proving spiritual truths with scientific methods.

Isn’t it logical, that when you take two things and fusion them into one thing, that they each would integrate more of the other into themselves to “fusion”?

Example:

If you take a red water color and a blue water color and fusion them, what happens on a physical level in this process? The blue water color takes in the red, and the red water color takes in the blue, becoming different, becoming “closer” to the other in appearance and forming a middle, new color: purple.

So, can twin souls maybe even be measured in the near future and proven undeniably, through biological and physical scientific methods?

We think, absolutely yes!

It is a new thought, an idea. Maybe some super genius scientist will pick it up and make history with it, by proving and establishing a new insight into our mysteries of life and beyond.

Good Day!

Archangel Michael’s Wedding (Unique Story)

Michael was wearing his stage uniform, and then he ducked and went into his knees holding his arms up over his head as if he wants to protect himself. As he was doing this, a dark mass approached him like a circle getting tighter and tighter and then Michael disappeared in the middle.I woke up this moment, knowing he will die. I was so scared and already crying as if it happened and I mourn, that I called up my friend, the Elvis lookalike, and told him about it all shaking from head to toe. He kept trying to calm me down and told me to tell him the dream in detail. So I did. Then he said:” It is just a dream; don’t worry. Michael isn’t going to die; maybe he will escape from below that circle and get away?”I liked having hope. But my heart knew this was a direct message and preparation for me, a premonition. I lived with these abilities all my life and know how to interpret them, for myself and even for strangers when I do tarot card readings. I’ve never been wrong. I might be shy and not always confident in many things in life, but this field is my specialty. I was born with seemingly rare spiritual abilities.Exactly four days after this dream and my phone conversation with my friend, the news reported all over the world that the police went into Michael Jackson’s Neverland ranch and performed a “Razzia”. I was shocked to the bones. “Michael is innocent!” I wanted to scream, but who would listen anyways?

Within the same week, I had another following dream completing the story. God made it super clear.

I went to bed and suddenly found myself vividly at Neverland ranch. Michael was standing there like a tear drop, all hanging shoulders and head with a sad and very exhausted expression on his face. I saw children playing there and enjoying themselves, and Michael just stood there, absent and all sad.

Living in a German speaking country in my awakened state and thinking in German usually, I talked suddenly clear English with Michael inside this dream:

“Michael, what happened to you? You used to enjoy watching these children play and were so happy!”

Before I could get an answer, I and Michael suddenly stood in front of a green Go-Cart car inside Neverland ranch. It had a white, round sticker on the side doors with a race number on it. I don’t remember the exact number.

Michael walked to the passenger seat side and I stood at the car door for the driver’s side and my awakened state consciousness was present with logic and clearness. Michael suddenly said:” You have to drive.”

I got confused and said to him:” Michael, I can’t drive, I don’t have a driver’s license!”

This moment his tired expression was gone for a moment and he looked at me very serious and said:” Susan, you have to.” I listened and got into the car and started driving naturally. Michael sat sunken in his seat next to me and looked straight ahead, absent and depressed. I was driving and kept looking at him, checking on him and he kept looking so washed out and tired.

Out of the blue with absolute certainty I realized suddenly inside the vivid dream still:

“Michael is a Ghost! That is why he cannot drive!”

Oh man, was I scared. This eerie dream, the previous one and the current new false accusations against Michael made me certain, he is in danger. I lost for a while my passion for singing and Music, because of these false accusations. It hurt me deep, and the whole time it felt like it is being done to me. I felt his pain, his fear and his anger over this injustice. I tried to e-mail him, but naturally, the e-mail seemed as if it is not used anymore. We had never met face to face at this point in real life. I wanted to help, because my dreams made me panic for Michael, but in the same time, I knew I am a stranger to him, how could he know he can trust me now. This is how it felt. If I was famous and had people back stabbing me like this, I would not go in that phase and trust strangers around the World, naturally.

I kept asking myself, back then, why God showed me this. Was it so I can rescue Michael somehow? Could I? Why me being so far away from him and never having met him yet? Definitely I wanted to try helping Michael. I desperately wanted to do something to save him somehow. I was convinced this is why I would receive such premonitions. In the same time I was noticing, that I perceive the things and feelings as well, from Michael himself. If he knew few days before, that these people who he helped and gave money to had a fight with him or any argument and he had seen their malicious thoughts and greed in their eyes, I would perceive it as well and know that someone is attacking him from afar. Michael sensed people’s feelings and thoughts, he looked away often being so nice and forgiving, but he always knew when someone had bad plans toward him or was becoming jealous and greedy. Eyes don’t lie.

He loves children in innocent ways, just like animals, because he could just live and breathe and enjoy his life around them without being planned against or abused. It makes me cry to think about how sweet and innocent and wonderful he was to all people he met and how he was thanked for it by society.

Then a final dream followed more vivid than ever, reaching into my awakened life. I have kept this dream, details of it, secret until now, because it is so historic. This dream took place in 2003, exactly seven years prior to our merging after he passed later.

It was a usual summer day and I went to bed. After I fell asleep, I found myself inside my dream in a hospital kind of bed. It could also be something else, but not at home. I felt so exhausted and burned out, like after some kind of “marathon fighting”. I could not move really, like I am an old lady or something like that.

Then, in the corner of the room, I saw suddenly Michael appear as if floating toward me. He was wearing blue clothing that was so wide, that it floated as well not showing his body shape. He looked the same like he looked at that time in real life; his face was very serious this time. He seemed as if he does not stand on any ground I saw, but his energy reached far down and far up. Michael was surrounded by a blue fire aura, wearing something that looked like the universe around his belly and glittering in white in the same time all over the place.

As soon as I saw him, I recognized him as Archangel Michael and reached out my hand and said gently and exhausted:” Michael!” My arm felt tired and I still could reach for him. This moment I woke up, I did not see the rest of the story.

The first moment after awakening, I was confused and found it funny: Why am I dreaming about Archangel Michael suddenly? I don’t know anything about him nor ever was interested so much in Angels or read about them. And why in the World did he have Michael Jackson’s face? It was so random. That is what puzzled me. I ignored the dream, thinking it is pure fantasy and went on with my day.

In the afternoon after work, I went to the gym. It was owned by a Mister Elsener, which was a former police officer. He knew nothing about me; I knew nothing about him. But this day was different. As I sat on the one machine that works out the shoulder muscles in a wing type of movement, Mister Elsener suddenly came up to me telling the straight out like he is certain:

“Archangel Michael wants to help you! But you are so stubborn; you have to allow him to help. He can’t do it against your will; Angels must respect free will. Ask him!Let him help you!”

I was shocked and stopped working out in this moment, replying:” Oh my God, how can you know what I was dreaming about last night?” Bam. It was so freaky and clear. But still, back then I didn’t get it and I and Mister Elsener got into a very spiritual and fun conversation afterwards. I asked him:” But why did Archangel Michael have Michael Jackson’s face in my dream?” I was like a little, confused and amazed child.

Archangel Michael reveals himself as Michael Jackson to his Twin Soul in 2003
Archangel Michael reveals himself as Michael Jackson to his Twin Soul in 2003

He explained to me, that he had no clue why he had Michael Jackson’s face. Today, I think back and find it funny, but I just didn’t get it before Michael passed out of his limited human form.

Geraldine – 21 Oct 2011 10:56:07pm

I’ve learned how to have OBEs thru concentration. It is just a matter of learning how to fall asleep while staying conscious of the sleep process. But I could not tell if it was my imagination or if it was real until I was able to prove it to myself. One time while out of my body, I went into the living room where my parents were staying and examined in details what it is they were doing. My dad was sitting at a desk working on his computer, and I was astonished at the clothes he was wearing, as these were clothes I thought had been thrown away a long time ago. (I’m 33 yo – I had not seen the clothes he was wearing since the age of 12 or so..!). I then looked at my mother, and lo and behold, while I saw her physical body asleep, I also saw her “astral” body. She was talking to whatever her mind was projecting in front of her. Her astral body did not interest me much. I was more looking at her physical body, as I wanted to be able to recall exactly how she was. She had her arm in a funny position, almost un-natural, and her hair was sticking out at an angle, and the blanket was stuck under her chin. I looked again at my dad, exactly how he was, looked one more time at my mom’s astral body, and floated back inside my body. Once back in the physical, I was excited but also scared to open the door to my living room. Not knowing what I would find on the other side. As I walked in, my dad turned to me, WEARING THE CLOTHES I had seen him wear in the astral. I was absolutely speechless. He was at the desk, working on his computer.. In the exact same position. He only said, shhh – your mum is sleeping, do not make any noise. I turned to the other side of the living room, only to find my mom with HER ARM in that SAME awkward position, HER HAIR sticking out exactly as I had seen it, and the blanket under her chin. Of course, I could not see her astral body, but I knew where it was..
Now, this is my story. I know it to be true because I have experienced it. It does not matter to me if people believe me or not, I know it to be true.

Out-of-body experiences ARE REAL. But to know it, you must have one, and then be able to prove it to yourself.

I would never try to prove it to someone else. Because I could not – no matter what I say I saw, people would try to explain it so that they don’t have to face the fact that there is so much that we don’t know.

I am a scientist – molecular biology. And everything I study, everything I see is a proof to me of intelligent design.

In ancient times, the scientists were some types of priests because they understood that to understand Life, we also need to understand the spiritual.

Nowadays, scientists feel they must be atheists to be good at what they do.. Not realizing how much more they miss by discarding the spiritual side of life: such as intuition (how many discoveries happened because of that!?! And how do you explain intuition if not by explaining we

Karim – 21 Oct 2011 12:28:12am

Contrary to what is believed today I think there is much more than just this physical world. Anyone who’s had a real out of body experience will have felt that it is not something that just happens in the mind. With the right techniques this is something you can verify yourself. The scientists in this video are playing tricks on the physical brain and theorize that this must be what Out of body experiences are, but they’re not.
I would advise everyone who is interested in this to research this for yourself, through practice.
Mark Caesar – 28 Oct 2010 7:59:18pm

I had a motorcycle accident years ago and suffered a Brachial Plexus injury to my (R)arm and suffer quite badly from phantom pain.
I have seen documented and demonstrated that a mirror box with your good hand mirrored in place of your bad hand can be a total but temporary relief for the phantom pain and in fact give you the sensation of movement in your bad hand.
This research explains that phenomenon to me more than I have ever seen it explained.
I think that as a spin off to the research that is being done the scientists ought to keep this phenomenon in mind in relation to nerve damaged patients.

iF YOU DO NOT LEAVE THE BODY WHY DO YOU SEE EVERYTHING AS A PLANE VIEW? IF IT IS A ILLUSION WHERE DOES THE PLANE VIEW COMES FROM (BECAUSE IT IS NOT WHAT YOU ARE SEEING IN REAL BODY’S POSITION)

Great … psychology squeezing the very last specks of magic from the world.

Shame they are not researching something more important like MS or Parkinsons or alzheimer’s! Waste of space.

 
Anna H – 20 Mar 2010 11:17:23am

All these so-called out-of-body experiments show is that the brain can be induced to misinterpret sensory input.
Having had an out-of-body experience- it seems to me quite different-I didn’t feel my body, just watched it from above.
 
Jake – 23 Feb 2010 1:39:53pm

When a scientist replicates a spiritual experience using science they automatically believe that it disproves the spirtual experience. – see James Randi.
It doesn’t.
They have just proved they can replicate it but haven’t actually disproved anything!
David – 22 Feb 2010 11:23:03pm

Whilst this report on OBE’s might have given a possible explanation for some types of so called “out-of-body experiences” in my opinion and experience there is far more to it as one guest suggested.

There is a whole spiritual side to it which science cannot measure because the only things science can measure and observe is physical external things. Whereas the key to fundamentally understanding obe’s is through practice of an internal science.

Every human being has an obe every time their physical body falls asleep. Usually though we are completely unaware of the process, we go through it unconsciously and have unconscious dreams instead of seeing where we really are. Scientists studying someone having an obe will only see someone who is asleep, they cannot know what is happening internally.

However it is possible to train ourselves to fall asleep consciously and be aware of the whole process. I and many others have done this and experienced it many times. You know through having the experience yourself that it is not a mere illusion. Any scientist that wants to study obe’s should do so through experiencing it themselves. There are courses and books available that teach how to do it.

The dimensions of space and time are known to science. Science also postulates in quantum physics the likelyhood of there being a fifth dimension due to the way that some sub-atomic particles behave, they appear to be operating under different laws of physics. It is this fifth dimension where obes and near death experiences take place. It is also the same place we go to everynight when we fall asleep and dream or if you are doing it consciously it is also refered to as astral projection or astral travel which is just another way of saying out-of-body experience.

Have you ever been lying in bed thinking whilst waiting to fall asleep and then all of a sudden you get a short but intense falling feeling and your body jolts? That is your astral body entering back into the physical body. The moment before you (your consciousness) were in the astral plane with your physical body asleep but you didn’t realise it.

Obes are natural and safe, we do it every night already except unconsciously, but it is far better to be conscious of what is going on. Then we can use it to our advantage and that is really what it is for. It is a tool for our spiritual evolution which I think is an essential part of human evolution but scientists don’t get anywhere near knowing it unless they practice it for themselves.

Audentous – 01 Mar 2010 1:06:01pm

Ahh, but scientists can prove that it is an entirely mental process through one simple experiment… people claiming to have an out of body experience have never been able to tell researchers what was on a high shelf in the very same room afterwards.

Besides that, every single symptom and physical effect can be explained and replicated through various processes, as well as the experience on the whole.

If your claim is based purely on this “other dimension” that you speak of (which is NOT the extra dimensions that quantum physics refers to… though, some knowledge of quantum physics is necessary to realize why that’s obvious)

Now, there is wiggling room in the claim that this process is spiritual in a sense that cannot be in any way measure through experiment. In that case, however, that means that there cannot be any evidence of it… especially since all of the symptoms of it can be replicated and explained through entirely physical means.

In that case, the burden of proof lies of the people making the claim. That is, if I claim there is a magic teapot that grants wishes in orbit around jupiter, but it cannot be observed through any physical means (except that I KNOW it’s there)… you are in no way expected to believe that teapot is there. So… you claim there is some sort of special, spiritual component to this physical phenomenon, yet you have absolutely no evidence to support your claim except that you KNOW it to be so.

Therefore, don’t be surprised when people tell you to take your crackpot teapot ideas somewhere else.

Shazingle – 10 May 2010 10:58:31pm

uh, i think David was implying that if someone told you about this magical teapot, your best bet is to find a method of proving or disproving for yourself such as is in the suggestion that scientists interested in OBEs actually learn to experience them and study that experience, rather than studying others who, quite rightly pointed out, only appear to be sleeping.

If you told me about this wish granting magic teapot in orbit around Jupiter and it really was something of interest to me, I would sincerely ask you for some method in which I could verify that rather than relying on the claim that “if I can’t see it, it does not exist”. If, however, I were not interested in such a teapot then that claim would suffice to end such discussion. If ending the debate on the existence of magical teapots were my primary interest then I would not only rely on that claim, but I would throw every method of scientific investigation known to me at the postulation of the existence of this teapot in order to achieve my goal of ending the debate.

In this case David states there is a method for science to legitimately study OBEs, yet all I see in this show is the attempt to discredit the experience via a scientific method, which incidentally begins with the hypothesis that OBEs are tricks of the brain resulting in a realistic illusion, therefore condemning the subject to closure before a thorough investigation has even taken place.

If someone told me of a magical teapot I might be more inclined to ask “how do you know this? how can I get one? what must I do?” rather than tell the person to go walking.

After all, a wish granted is a pretty wonderful thing and if someone stated you could have that all the time, would you not be at least a little inclined to inquire?

Ross W – 18 Feb 2010 7:57:51pm

Has intersting impliccations for training a robot to be a replicon (simulon) of a human, becuase it implies that a human can learn to be empathetic to his/her replicon.
 
JJ Captain – 16 Feb 2010 11:11:33am

Really enjoyed the show. I began having OBE at about 15 and could call them up almost at will. First, it was only in a particular chair as the family was watching TV. After that I began to experiment and found it could clear my mind and focus in a particular way to begin the experience. As I got older I began to ‘refuse’ to allow myself to ‘go there’.

But, I’ve just had a try, and it still works.

Keith Price – 13 Feb 2010 7:43:23pm

Thank you for the interesting segment on OBEs. I have a couple of comments to make on the assumptions that Dr Phillips appears to be making about these. First, he appears to suggest that there is no question of a truly scientific explanation having recourse to anything like non-physical souls. I hate to be contrary, but I would like to suggest that this is not so – if the data takes us strongly enough in that direction, souls it is! We are otherwise being dogmatic materialists, and very unscientific. Secondly, there is no mention that there have been numerous careful parapsychological studies done on OBEs which have shown that people frequently learn facts during an OBE that would be very difficult or impossible for then to know on the assumption that it is a pure hallucination. This awkward fact would tend to make it hard to argue that all OBEs are just the brain tricking us! Susan is right to defend her experience – nothing a brain researcher can show us can explain our experience away!
Steve Spangaro – 16 Feb 2010 2:36:44pm

Agreed Keith (while parking any semantics to be had around the term ‘soul’). The fascinating story did a fine job albeit incomplete due to the gaping blind spot you’ve identified.

As covered in an ABC ‘Catalyst’ episode some years ago, there is strong anecdotal evidence that 3rd person perspective inputs (such as seeing what precise tools a surgeon is using in the operating theatre) can form a component of a subject’s near death visualisations. The Catalyst program went on to report a hypothesis based on quantum theory… It might be that the scientifically elusive ‘self’ is formed in some way by quantum computational stuff that in the way of things quantum can have an ambiguous location a la the Heisenberg Principle (being the very same phenomena by which lasers have been successfully teleported in the lab).

Dr Sam Parnia at the University of Southampton is currently conducting a verifiable study of ‘what is being seen’ during near death experiences. Perhaps the results due in 2011 will be worth Catalyst’s attention in the name of a more thorough reporting.

gary askwith – 12 Feb 2010 2:13:51pm

I enjoyed the episode in which you were able to enlighten us into scientific explanations of OBE experiences,

which I saw on the Catalyst Program.

I have been having OBE’s for many years, the first being in 1989.

I fully understand that when I have tactile hallucinations that my physical body is actually in motion,

creating the ‘illusion’ that the movement is actually taking place in my out of body.

It was great to see this confirmed with your research!

I am hoping you may be able to enlighten me on two things.

The first, whilst bizarre, may have the simplest explanation, and the second is a little more complex.

1/

Toward the end of one OBE I experienced last year I found myself, seemingly prematurely, awaken from the experience.

I was not sure if I was back in my body, because I was conscious, my eyes were open, I couldn’t move my head,

but I could see clearly around my room.

I felt paralysed, except for my arms, and being able to have eye movement. 

(incidentally, a nuerologist diagnosed me in 1990 as having sleep paralysis)

To assure myself that my OBE had finished I waved my arms in front of my face.

I was in absolute shock to experience that whilst I was waving my arms in front of my face, I could not see them,

yet everything alse was clear. I repeated this about 3 times to no avail.

I felt I was in limbo, experiencing a kind of death.

I panicked, and closed my eyes and tried to relax, and eventually was back to normal.

It was a frightening experience like I had no arms, and the waving were from phantom limbs.
What explanation could you subscribe to this?

Secondly, on a number of occassions I have experienced an OBE without leaving my body.
My functioning ‘out of body’, is still within my body.
The above (1) is perhaps some type of example of this. Similar, however, not the same.
In these instances I recieve an incredible energy from within my brain, that is transferred to my hands.

My hands feel an incredibly amount of what seems powerful magnetic energy.
In these circumstances I am able to manoevere my hands ‘out of body hands’ (my actual hands are motionless)

Using my discretion I move them about one inch above my skin to a position which I gain most control.

Kind of like using the controls of a Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (T.E.N.S unit)

If I move them too fast, they become painful, and if they are too close to the skin, they lose energy.

I then manoevere them over my body and the magnetic energy seems optimum.
I have on the odd occass

The ‘out of body’ perception in trauma is used within healing meditation processes (similar to Mindfulness meditation but with different emphasis).

Patiently focussing on the ‘out of body image’ and using your sensory awarenesss to explore the panic and other emotional and sensory reactions will allow them to settle in many cases. Then the conscious awareness seems to be able to reorganise and can be perceived to move back into the body (so you look out of your own eyes).

This way of meditatively processing the event can result in experiencing a sense of release or ‘healing’. People tend to then feel significantly better about the incident. Negative symptoms associated with the experience will tend to dissapate.

Can I remind readers that personal anecdotes do not constitute evidence of OBEs. Otherwise my magical OBE sandals would be worth millions on ebay.
