Category: Twin Souls / Twin Flames

Twin flames are the embodiment of true love. I think it’s why people are so obsessed with trying to find this mythical kind of love. Unfortunately, the majority of what people think is twin flame love isn’t what it is. Sometimes a person’s true desire for love is really just a means to feed themselves. Prince and I, we look at how relationships between people and we are so disappointed with how people treat each other. There’s no real love between people who use each other to exchange benefits. This is called conditional love. Whether it be a man using a woman for sex, or a woman using a man for money. Dating seems to be a strategic evaluation of each other to see if the other is materialistically worthy of their attention. What ever happened to getting to the desire to truly know a person’s soul? I’ve always noticed when men would approach me, it was always such a shallow interest, they didn’t care about me, as a person, to discover the core of my being.

I want to show you this song, Something In The Water, it was released in 1982 on the 1999 album. If you take a close look at the lyrics, you will realize that this song is about the broken state of male-female relationships. As his twin, I’ve unconciously felt him all my life, what he went through in relationships. His heartbreak is my hear break, and vice versa.  The hurt, the heartbreak, the disappointment. By the time I was in my 20’s I already felt jaded by the prospect of marriage. My parents are still together; but I never aspired to marry, because I knew of the real likelihood of divorce in this day and age. When I was living on my own for the first time in my mid-twenties, I dated these guys and it was the same story. No commitment. I stupidly went out with these guys, falling in love and broken in the end, when they left without any decency to say why.

Listen to this song. It’s a live recording. (Sorry, this video has taken down from YouTube)Listen to what he says in between the lyrics. He is speaking from experience. Do you feel the hurt and anger Prince expresses in these lyrics? Doesn’t it piss you off that he was treated this way? You should be pissed. It’s not only the famous that get treated this way. It is the way of the world right now.

A little while ago, I was talking to a friend about my experiences in 2013 in regards to an out-of-body visit from Prince. It was during the night when I was in bed and suddenly felt a masculine energetic presence. It was unlike anything I had ever experienced, but I wasn’t scared because I felt the love. He floated above me and then into me. My friend had suggested to me that I look into that was happening to Prince during 2013. The only thing I knew was that he did not release an album that year.

Today, I found out that he played at the Montreux Jazz Festival that year, and he played a song called Breakdown. This would have been a brand new song at the time, as it was not released on an album, until 2014 on Art Official Age. The first time I ever heard this song, I cried. I felt his sorrows, I felt his regrets. And I felt his soul growth. I watched the video of this performance and he told me that he felt my pain and everything I had gone through at the time.

In early 2013, I had an emotional breakdown. There was a relationship break up with no explanation, just a text message saying his final goodbye. In addition to that, I had a realization that nothing in my life seemed to be going right. I had always tried my very best to make things happen for myself. I was unhappy in my career direction and I didn’t know what I was going to do. I spent a week in bed crying. But out of all this, I learned to be free, because I learned to surrender to God.

That summer, I experienced spiritual breakthroughs and developed a deep understanding for myself. I remember moments where I kept seeing white feathers blowing in the wind. One time I was in the car with my mother with the windows rolled down, and a single white feather gently floated through my window and out hers as we were having an deep conversation. That was the summer I picked up a Numerology book and learned to read people.

Hearing Prince perform this song made me realize that this song is really our  twin souls merging.  In this song he talks about his regrets and the lessons he’s learned as a result in his soul growth. This soul growth comes from breaking down the ego and realizing the spiritual. As the spiritual part of us emerges, awareness of our soul connection grows.

There were some lines in here that had me guessing as to what he meant by them, so I asked him, and he answered. Here is the video of the performance, the lyrics and my interpretation with guidance from Prince in spirit. Note that there is slight variation in the lyrics towards the end of the song.

The “door” that he’s referring to is dematerialization, the breaking down of the physical realm to get to the spiritual. The breaking down of the ego. In these lines he is speaking to his twin soul, his divine counterpart who gets him through his spiritual progression. The more his spirituality grows, the closer his connection to her becomes.

I found that this entire album was showing a lot of Prince’s spiritual growth. There’s a very interesting undying concept in the album itself. This album is really talking about his mission for incarnating on Earth and then his leaving.
