12 Twin Flame Stages (and How to Progress Through Them)

Trying to understand the twin flame stages can be a minefield. Nobody agrees on exactly what the stages are so you’ll see different terms, various orders and (all too often) people arguing over what the ‘real’ stages are.

Don’t get bogged down with the terminology or order. You’ve probably heard me say that every twin flame journey is unique and I really mean every journey. Most of us agree on some of the main themes of the stages you pass through on the journey – but there’s no roadmap for a clear A->Z.

I speak to a lot of people going through their own path and there are some general things you can look for and ways you can help further your path to twin flame union.

Don’t place unfair expectations on your twin or your journey. Use this list (or any list of twin flame stages for that matter) as a rough guideline. Not a hard-set rule. The lines might blur and you might skip over steps or seem to completely backtrack.

This is all a perfectly normal part of the twin flame experience. Mirror souls are pretty hard to pin down to exact specifics at the best of times.

Stage 1: Oblivious

While twin flames tend to be spiritual there seems to be this expectation of them to already be searching for something. In my experience, this isn’t necessarily true.

You might be completely unaware of twin flames and relatively happy with a ‘normal’ 3D relationship with someone else. You might think this is what life is like and be perfectly happy. You might be entirely oblivious to the spiritual path you’re on.

On some level, you’ll know that you’re not complete but we often ignore this. We push away this feeling and sometimes we’re entirely unaware of it.

You could be happy like this and I do mean genuinely happy but there’s often something external that moves you into the next stage.

Stage 2: The Trigger

Maybe you go through a major event in your life or perhaps you just wake up one morning and something has changed.

A spiritual jumpstart has propelled you forward and this can happen at any stage of your life.

Sometimes you don’t even consciously know it’s happened but your world isn’t the same again. Your mindset shifts and your eyes become open to the possibility of something greater.

This can manifest in many different ways but it will almost always be some form of improvement. You may start being more open to spiritual progression or even just a focus on your physical goals. There will be something you’re driven to change and improve.

Sometimes this stage can be a little overwhelming (especially for those who have stayed away from spiritual topics before). On a higher level, you know you’re about to reach a crossroads but this energy is easily confused as doubt or frustration about your path in life.

It can be a hard stage to go through, but twin flames are offered an opportunity that very, very few are.

Stage 3: The Search

The Search Twin Flame Stage

After our spiritual awakening trigger, we’ll begin to look for something.

Again, the more spiritually attuned at this stage will know it’s a person but often we just know that something is missing from our lives. That drive to find leads us in many different ways.

For some, it will lead us to search romantically. Often this means the learning experience of a false twin flame as we try and fill a hole we don’t fully understand with… something (or someone).

It feels like something is missing but you don’t know what. Like when you’re standing in front of the fridge but you don’t know quite what you want to take out.

Something is out of place and for short periods we might tell ourselves that it’s travel, a career move or another physical distraction but the more we try to find the answer, the more we’ll feel this sense of searching for something.

Nobody around you will quite understand except, perhaps, anyone close to you who has been on their spiritual path.

Stage 4: The ‘One’

Once we’ve figured out that what we’re searching for is a person… we start looking for our idea of ‘the one’.

Twin flames actually begin this search the moment they arrive on Earth but that doesn’t mean they’re consciously aware of it.

In fact, Hollywood movies fill us with the idea that we’re looking for a soulmate (and you should understand the difference between twin flames and soulmates ).

Twin flames are looking for something greater than just ‘happily ever after’. They have a rare chance that few get – a chance at meeting the other part of their soul. True and perfect love. Deep understanding beyond anything soulmates will ever feel.

Often, at this stage, we don’t know that. We’ll be led by Hollywood rom-coms to people we think will make us happy but it never seems to feel quite right. Sometimes we’ll drift from relationship to relationship or stay long-term without really feeling it.

Sometimes we might even counter our twin flame at this stage but we’re not prepared for this level of connection. The high energy between you is often misunderstood by both sides and you repel from each other.

Stage 5: The Dark Night of the Soul

The Dark Night of the Soul Stage

The dark night of the soul for twin flames is a turbulent moment of spiritual development. We might not always use this term but twin flames will always go through this.

After trying to find ‘the one’ we’re often left facing loneliness or an unhappy relationship. Faced with doubt, disappointment and unhappiness something within us stirs.

This stage often comes with grief or even depression. That feeling that something is out of place builds but we still don’t know why or how to fill that hole.

Both twins often go through this stage at the same time but are completely unaware of it. The feeling of hopelessness and loss will reverberate through the telepathic connection mirror souls share and often spring up out of nowhere as your twin experiences a moment of turmoil.

The dark night of the soul is often uncomfortable and there’s no clear timeline on how long it takes. It is a necessary part of the twin flame journey, however. In some ways, it is a moment for introspection and the calm before the storm.

Stage 6: The Shift

The dark night of the soul rarely leaves us the same as when we started. It drives us through immense change that we often call the shift or a triggered awakening.

We begin to connect with our higher selves and gain a better understanding of ourselves. Often at this stage, twin flames begin to live a more authentic life.

You’ll see the world through set eyes. Restrictions that once held you back will fall away.

You still might not have heard the term ‘twin flame’ at this stage. You might not fully understand what you’re searching for but you’re open to it being something more than the average person is seeking.

I’ve heard this stage described as spiritual homework and I think that’s fitting. This shift in perspective will often lead us to explore things we were once closed to or completely oblivious of.

This stage prepares us for an intense encounter with our twin flame. It begins to prepare us for the real spiritual journey that is to come. We begin to wake up to our true path.

Stage 7: The Physical Encounter

Encountering our twin flame after the dark night of the soul and awakening shift is incredibly hard to describe because it’s such a personal experience for each of us. Twin flames find themselves face-to-face with something they’ve been searching for their entire life and the connection hits them like a train.

But this often doesn’t go as you’d expect. I’ve talked about the idea of love at first sight between twin flames before and remember this is not a Hollywood movie.

When twin flames meet there is high energy. Explosively high. Sometimes this means intense attraction right away but sometimes you might actually hate each other.

Hate is not the opposite of love. Indifference is. If there’s one thing I can tell you about this first encounter – it will not go unnoticed by either of you.

Here is where things get tricky. In almost every twin flame relationship, one twin awakens before the other does which means you’re usually not on the same page for that first encounter.

One is usually more open to the spiritual journey and they know they’re looking for a real connection. The other is most often still confused about exactly what they’re looking for.

For some, this physical encounter leads to a physical relationship quickly. If this happens, it will stand out and previous relationships and false twin flames won’t even begin to compare.

Stage 8: The Spiritual Connection

Twin flame telepathy begins the moment you’re both on Earth. You’re always connected and using this link to silently nudge each other onward.

Sometimes you can be aware of this connection before you physically meet. I see this from time to time when I speak to people but in general, it’s more noticeable after the physical meeting.

After the physical encounter, the spiritual connection really begins.

Our subconscious has become used to these silent guiding nudges but now they’ll start to manifest in our consciousness. There’s a lot of different signs from this such as a feeling of them being around, strange synchronicities in our day-to-day life or even blatant messages popping up.

You’ll experience a wonderful feeling of connection unlike you’ve ever had before. This is what you’ve been searching for all this time.

In this stage, twin flames begin to mirror each other and open up to them (and ourselves) in ways we never have and while this is needed to prepare us for union – it almost always causes problems in the short term.

Whether we’re consciously aware of it or not, as humans we’re often not prepared for this level of connection and openness. One (or both) twins often react by lashing out and becoming overwhelmed (you might have heard this described as soul shock ).

The high energy of the connection combined with the misunderstood feeling often fights against the intense love of the connection and brings us to the stage we all dread.

Stage 9: The Runner/Chaser Separation Phase

Perhaps the most complicated stage of the entire journey and certainly the most painful. The honeymoon phase of the connection temporarily ends and one twin is overwhelmed to the point of running.

The runner twin flame will make up an excuse that fits into the narrative of how they understand the world and relationships. They’ll tell this lie to you, to their friends and also to themselves .

When they’re not ready to fully understand the level of connection, they’ll find a reason to not have to deal with it. The spiritual equivalent of sticking your head in the sane.

Understanding twin flame separation is important here.

While it’s physically, emotionally and spiritually painful how we handle this stage will dictate how long it lasts .

Often this is when we start looking for answers and discover the term twin flame . Most of my readers and viewers are dealing with this immense sense of loss and just didn’t have the words to fully explain what they were going through.

A lot of things can happen at this stage. Roles can reverse, you’ll go through periods of doubt and maybe even false twin flame relationships. You might even go through multiple separations and come back together again.

There’s no set timeline here it could be anything from days to decades (I’ve certainly seen both).

There’s only one way to make it through this stage.

By focusing on your healing and furthering the spiritual path. There are many ways to do this (with the twin flame coaching , for example). What we can’t do is wallow at this stage and just wait for the universe (or the mirror soul) to figure it out and end this stage for us.

As much as it can feel like it, if you’re in separation there’s work you can both do to further your path to come back together.

Note: No matter  what stage you’re currently on. If you need some help or guidance on the journey, take a moment to tell me about it and let me do a twin flame reading for you.

Stage 10: Surrender

Twin Flame Surrender Stage

After we go through the turmoil and pain of the separation and accept the path we’re on – we enter the twin flame surrender stage .

We stop worrying about them. We stop spending our time focusing on whether they message us back or what they’re doing. We stop dealing with constant doubt and instead we focus entirely on ourselves .

This doesn’t mean we give up on the twin flame journey or ignore our twin. It means we focus on healing, on furthering our own goals and (whether we know it or not) we prepare ourselves for union .

On some level, we’re spiritually aware at this stage and we know what’s coming. We know that our twin is taking their time to prepare themselves as well and we will be together again after this stage is done.

We surrender to the journey, the process and the path we’re on. Our vibration rises and we grow in various aspects. The energy shared between both mirror souls pushes each other to new heights.

Stage 11: Illumination

Once both twin flames enter the surrender stage and complete enough self-improvement to move onward you both enter a stage of vibrational alignment known as the illumination stage.

Your past wounds are open to each other and you hold a perfect mirror of each other’s love and imperfections. You are open and honest with each other and set your ego aside. No relationship can compete with this level of connection and trust.

At this stage, twin flames will stop running away from each other and start to move towards each other. Sometimes you might repel for short separation phases if you’re not quite ready but these will become shorter and less frequent as you prepare for the final stage.

Stage 12: Twin Flame Union

The final twin flame stage.

Once both of you have gone through this spiritual awakening and emerged on the other side as better versions of each other – you’re ready to come back together as one.

You’re both ready for complete surrender of the self and the one to become part of something greater.

Calling this the perfect relationship doesn’t do it justice. It is a loving harmony between two people but comparing twin flame union to a happy couple is like comparing a goldfish to a blue whale.

This is two halves of the same soul coming back together. A spiritually attuned connection of selfless love and an understanding beyond anything two other people can share.

Frustratingly, this stage is possibly the hardest to put into words . When you experience it, you just know this is the final stage and it’s forever.

The twin flame journey is not easy. It requires you to go through stages of pain and anguish that can feel like torture at times, but it’s worth the end result – union with your mirror soul.

The only way to survive these stages is by focusing on healing yourself and continuing down your spiritual path. No matter what stage you’re in now, I promise you it’s worth it.

Don’t become distracted in the short term. Focus on furthering your journey and once you reach union maybe you’ll be able to describe it better than I can.

1 thought on “12 Twin Flame Stages (and How to Progress Through Them)”

Hey Danielle,

I’ve been reading up on this spiritual topic of twin flames, and being that I’m also going through this I’ve realized a lot about this journey which always helps me recognize the larger shift and connecting with my higher self and allowing the portion of my self I once ran away from to accept and understand rather than ignore the entire concepts all together. It’s been much of a deep dive into this concept which has proven to drive me into the area where I’ve needed to be most and channel the level of self I thought I was already on but it’s a fine aspect of tuning this “muscle” so to speak because it has helped me discover who I am more! Thanks I’ll keep a look out for more

It’s like stepping into a realm where love meets destiny to create a whirlpool of personal evolution. This journey is not about dependency; it’s about fostering growth, enlightenment, and embarking on a path of self-discovery with your divine counterpart. In this article, we’ll meander through the labyrinth of the Twin Flame journey, providing you with a lantern of understanding to illuminate the path.

Engaging with the Essence of Twin Flame Journey

Twin Flames, often coined as mirror souls, reflect a divine connection that transcends the superficial tiers of ordinary romantic entanglements. They are said to be two souls originating from a single divine source, journeying through the realms of existence, only to reunite and form a bond that mirrors the strengths, weaknesses, and quintessence of one another. Here’s a closer look at this ethereal bond:

  • Mirror Souls: Your Twin Flame is like a mirror, reflecting your inner strengths and frailties. This reflection isn’t meant to chastise or belittle you but to propel you toward self-improvement and inner wholeness.
  • Unveiling Layers: The Twin Flame journey unfolds the layers of your true self, sometimes peeling off the veils of ego, insecurities, and fears, making the journey a path of self-discovery and personal evolution.
  • Fostering Growth: Unlike other connections that might foster co-dependence, the Twin Flame bond encourages individual growth, pushing you towards becoming the best version of yourself.
  • Divine Purpose: It’s believed that Twin Flames reunite for a higher, divine purpose, often aimed at spiritual growth and contributing towards collective consciousness.

In the process of Understanding the Twin Flame journey, one realizes that it’s much more than a romantic escapade; it’s a spiritual voyage toward self-realization and unconditional love.

The Philosophical Underpinnings

The concept of Twin Flames isn’t a modern-day fanciful creation; it has roots deep within various cultures and spiritual doctrines. Let’s tiptoe through the gardens of history and philosophy to glean some understanding.

The idea of Twin Flames can be traced back to ancient civilizations. Plato, in his dialogue “The Symposium,” shared the notion of a primal being split into two, each yearning for the other half, embodying the early inklings of the Twin Flame theory.

Various cultures have their tales and interpretations of Twin Flames. In Hinduism, the divine couple Radha-Krishna exemplifies the essence of Twin Flames, portraying a love that is eternal and transcends the earthly plane.

Literature, across time and cultures, has often danced around the concept of soulmates and Twin Flames. The profound connection between Rumi and Shams Tabriz is one such portrayal, where love transcended worldly bonds, leading toward spiritual enlightenment.

The modern-day narrative has added its color to the Twin Flame journey. It’s now seen as a Learning from Twin Flame journey towards self-awareness, spiritual growth, and a deeper understanding of unconditional love.

The Twin Flame spiritual journey is often perceived as a path leading towards higher consciousness and enlightenment, each stage of the journey being a lesson in spiritual and personal growth.

In essence, the Twin Flame journey stages and Twin Flame journey lessons are much more than mere chapters of a romantic saga. They are pages of a profound manuscript aimed at personal evolution and spiritual ascension. The philosophical underpinnings and historical roots add a rich texture to the modern understanding of Twin Flames, making it a fascinating topic of exploration for those yearning for a deeper connection, not just with another soul, but with the self and the cosmos.

The Path of Self-Discovery: Learning from the Twin Flame Journey

Embarking on the Twin Flame journey is like stepping into a classroom where the curriculum is designed by the universe, and the lessons are tailored for soul growth. It’s a pathway that intertwines love with destiny, each step laden with self-discovery and spiritual enlightenment. Let’s delve deeper into this celestial expedition.

Stages of Twin Flame Journey

Every great tale unfolds in chapters, and the Twin Flame saga is no different. Here are the stages that punctuate this journey.

Recognition

The moment of recognition is akin to a cosmic “Aha!” It’s when eyes meet and souls greet, resonating on a frequency that’s familiar yet profoundly exciting. As the adage goes, “We do not meet people by accident. They are meant to cross our path for a reason.” This phase is the awakening of that reason, the stirring of souls recognizing a divine counterpart.

The stage of separation is the universe’s way of handing over the homework. It’s a time for introspection, self-work, and individual growth. The separation, though emotionally taxing, is a hiatus that allows both individuals to evolve, to align with their higher selves, making the eventual reunion not just desirable, but divine.

The reunion is a harmonious melody that plays when two attuned souls come together. It’s the celebration of overcoming personal hurdles and embracing a connection that thrives on unconditional love and understanding. It’s like the universe orchestrating a symphony where love is the melody and growth, the rhythm.

Lessons Derived

Each stage of the Twin Flame journey stages is a treasure trove of lessons. Here’s what one might unearth:

The journey molds a fragile heart into a reservoir of resilience. It teaches the art of bouncing back, of rising each time life orchestrates a fall.

Unconditional Love

Unconditional love is the cornerstone of the Twin Flame journey lessons. It’s about loving without boundaries, without conditions, a love that’s as vast and endless as the universe itself.

True Companionship

The essence of true companionship is about growing together, about fostering each other’s individuality while nurturing the shared bond.

The Twin Flame Connection: A Deeper Look

The Spiritual Resonance

The Twin Flame spiritual journey is a resonance between two souls that vibrate at a divine frequency. It’s about transcending the physical realm, delving into a deeper understanding of love, life, and existence.

Physical vs Spiritual Love

Physical love is like reading the cover of a book, while spiritual love is about delving into its pages. It’s where “Netflix and chill” evenings transition into soul-stirring conversations under the starlit sky, each word resonating with love, understanding, and a thirst for deeper connection.

Overcoming Challenges: The Twin Flame Journey Lessons

The Twin Flame journey is akin to a mystical trail dotted with challenges that are more like veiled opportunities, nudging you towards personal and spiritual growth. Let’s unravel the intricacies of this path, as we delve deeper into the lessons embedded within the challenges and the healing that follows.

Challenges Encountered

The Twin Flame journey stages are not a bed of roses, but a pathway strewn with thorns of challenges, each one designed to make you blossom into your true self. Here’s a closer examination.

Ego Clashes

The ego is the first hurdle in the Learning from Twin Flame journey. When two souls, mirroring each other, come together, the ego might feel threatened, giving rise to conflicts. As Rumi once said, “The ego is a veil between humans and God.” Overcoming ego clashes requires a level of understanding and humility that transcends mundane conflicts, paving the way for a deeper connection.

Facing Fears

The journey forces you to face your deepest fears and insecurities. It’s like holding a mirror to your inner demons and having the courage to confront them.

Emotional Turmoil

The emotional roller-coaster is real. The highs are ecstatic, but the lows can be devastating. Yet, it’s in the troughs of these waves where the real growth happens.

Separation Anxiety

The phase of separation can be fraught with anxiety and longing. But it’s a necessary hiatus for individual growth and self-realization.

Misunderstandings and Miscommunications

The path is often tangled with misunderstandings that require the balm of clear communication and the salve of patience to unravel.

Transformative Healing

The Twin Flame journey lessons are not just about facing challenges but transcending them to attain a state of healing that’s transformative.

Understanding

Understanding is the first step towards healing. It’s about seeing beyond the surface, grasping the unspoken words, and feeling the unexpressed emotions.

The essence of unconditional love is the elixir that promotes profound healing. It’s about loving without expecting, giving without demanding.

Forgiveness

Forgiveness is a gift you give to yourself and your Twin Flame. It’s the act of unburdening your heart, making room for love and understanding.

The journey teaches the importance of self-love. It’s in loving oneself that one lays the foundation of a love that’s unshakable and pure.

Spiritual Growth

The spiritual growth that comes from overcoming challenges is like the silver lining of a clouded sky. It’s the light that shines through the cracks, illuminating the path of the Understanding Twin Flame journey.

The Unveiling: Recognizing Your Twin Flame

Embarking on the Twin Flame journey is akin to unveiling a mystical realm where love and destiny dance to the tune of the universe.

The twin flame journey is a spiritual and emotional experience unlike any other. It is a bond that goes beyond the physical realm, connecting two souls in an unbreakable bond of love and understanding.

However, this journey is not without its challenges and tests. The meeting of twin flames often triggers a series of stages that both individuals must go through in order to reach a union with each other.

Based on my experience and research, there are 9 distinct stages in the Twin Flame journey. In this article, we will explore these different stages in detail.

But before we begin, it is important to remember that every twin flame connection is unique, and not all stages may apply to your experience. However, by understanding these stages, you can gain a deeper understanding of your own journey.

Table of Contents

Stage 1: The Yearning

Before meeting our twin flame, many of us experience a strong desire for a partner, particularly the divine feminine. From a young age, the divine feminine is captivated by romantic movies, such as those from Disney . As we grow older and embark on the quest for our soulmate, this desire grows even stronger. The divine masculine, on the other hand, may feel a sense of longing for something or someone that they cannot quite identify.

This longing makes us feel as though there is someone out there we are destined to meet in this lifetime. This yearning serves as a calling to find and reconnect with our twin flame. However, it is often misunderstood as a search for a romantic partner. Society often leads us to believe that we must find someone to complete us in order to be happy. But this is not the true purpose of a twin flame reunion. A twin flame connection has a deeper and more profound purpose than romantic love.

For many of us, the longing we feel often fades away when we encounter our twin flame. It is because we have finally found what we have been searching for.

My Personal Experience:

As the divine feminine in my twin flame connection, I used to fantasize about being in a romantic relationship. However, upon meeting my twin flame, the desire to be in a relationship vanished. Despite being just friends with my twin flame , I am no longer seeking a partner.

Stage 2: The Preparation

Before we meet our twin flame, many of us experience multiple challenging relationships that often have karmic implications . These relationships serve as preparation for meeting our twin flame, as they help us address and heal emotional wounds from past and present lifetimes.

Navigating through these challenging relationships allows us to resolve emotional wounds, fostering a healthier mindset when we eventually encounter our twin flame. It also enhances the likelihood of a union with our twin flame.

In some cases, individuals may undergo a spiritual awakening or face the Dark Night of the Soul , which prepares them to handle the spiritual experiences that accompany the twin flame journey. The entrance of our twin flame triggers accelerated personal growth. However, if we cling to past wounds, this growth may encounter significant resistance, leading to further pain and suffering.

I had three one-sided karmic relationships before meeting my twin flame. I also underwent a spiritual awakening and a Dark Night of the Soul . When my twin flame went through his own Dark Night of the Soul, I was able to offer him valuable insights and support.

Stage 3: The Meeting

The meeting of twin flames is not by chance. It is a predestined encounter where two souls recognize each other from their past lives. This meeting can happen in different ways – online, at work, through friends, or even in a random encounter. However, the timing of this meeting is always divinely orchestrated.

When twin flames meet, there is often an immediate recognition and resonance that surpasses physical attraction. It feels like coming home after being away for a long time. The energy between twin flames is intense and can be overwhelming at first.

During my meditation practice, I had a serendipitous encounter with my twin flame on a meditation app. Intrigued, I followed the link in his profile to join his meetup group. In our first meeting, I instantly felt an inexplicable connection with my twin flame. The sense of safety and comfort within the group allowed me to open up in ways I never thought possible. A simple hug with him felt like coming home. This profound connection is unlike anything I have experienced before.

Stage 4: The Bonding

After the initial meeting, twin flames may experience a period of intimate bonding. During this stage, the twin flames get to know each other better and deepen their connection, whether it is through friendship or a romantic bond.

This stage is characterized by a deep sense of love and familiarity with each other. The conversation flows effortlessly, and there is an understanding that goes beyond words.

Twin flames also have a strong telepathic connection during this stage. They can often finish each other’s sentences or even feel what the other is thinking or feeling. This bond creates a sense of oneness and unity, where the two souls feel like they are one.

During a period of approximately 7 months, we experienced a strong bonding stage. Our weekly meetups allowed us to build upon each other’s thoughts and emotions, creating a deep understanding between us. Our senses of humor were quite alike, and our conversation had a natural rhythm and flow. The experience was enjoyable and fulfilling. I felt truly understood and seen, with my twin flame attentively supporting my every word. Even in the face of disagreement from others, he stood by my side, offering protection and unwavering support.

Stage 5: The Trigger

Twin flames serve as mirrors, reflecting both our positive and negative aspects. During this stage, they trigger each other, bringing to light insecurities and fears that require healing.

This stage can cause a lot of turmoil within the relationship as both individuals may struggle with their own issues. The ego becomes more prominent and feels threatened by the profound unconditional love shared by twin flames.

However, this triggering is necessary for both twin flames to grow and evolve. It allows individuals to confront their shadow aspects, release limiting beliefs, and heal past wounds . This transformative stage promotes personal growth, self-awareness, and the resolution of deep-seated fears and insecurities.

It is also important for twin flames to understand that these triggers are not meant to hurt or harm each other. Instead, it is a reflection of what needs to be healed within themselves.

This stage presented the most significant challenge for me as it unearthed many of my deep-seated fears and insecurities. I found myself becoming excessively attached to my twin flame, experiencing feelings of jealousy when he grew closer to others. I also felt hurt and disappointed when he concealed his emotions from me. Following my intuition, I made the decision to leave the group for a while, which in turn triggered his own issues with abandonment .

Unlike the bonding stage, we encountered occasional disagreements stemming from differing opinions. Our egos refused to let go of control, and we found ourselves in a constant battle to prove our point.

Stage 6: The Runner and Chaser

This stage is often considered the most challenging and emotionally draining of all twin flame stages. It occurs when one twin flame becomes overwhelmed by the intensity of the connection and decides to run away from it.

The runner may need time to process their thoughts and emotions, leading to a temporary separation between the two. The chaser , on the other hand, may feel rejected and abandoned, desperately seeking to reunite with their twin flame. Usually, the twin flame that runs is the divine masculine and the twin flame that chases is the divine feminine.

This stage is crucial for both twin flames to learn important lessons such as detachment , self-love , and surrender . It allows the runner to confront their fears and insecurities while the chaser learns to let go of control and trust in the divine timing of their reunion.

However, this stage is not exclusive to twin flame relationships. Any two individuals with insecure attachment styles who enter into a relationship will encounter this push-pull dynamic. It is important to address and understand these dynamics to foster a healthy and fulfilling connection.

Read this article if you are struggling with the runner and chaser stage .

Personally, I did not experience this stage with my twin flame. When I left the group that my twin flame established, I simply followed my intuition . I was not running away from him and he knew that. I still stayed in contact with him afterward.

When my twin flame never responded to my text messages or accepted my invitation to meet up, I did not chase after him. Having gone through three one-sided relationships before, I had a deeper understanding of how the dynamics played out. As a result, I felt more secure and chose not to react to his behaviors.

Stage 7: The Separation

After a period of intense running and chasing , twin flames eventually come to a point of separation. This separation is often triggered by a significant event or realization that leads them to completely detach from their deep connection.

In the separation stage , both twin flames may go through a period of inner healing and growth. This is where they focus on themselves and their individual journeys, rather than solely on the connection with their twin flame.

This stage can be challenging as both individuals may feel a sense of loss or emptiness without their twin flame by their side and sometimes they can experience the Dark Night of the Soul . However, this stage serves a higher purpose – to allow both twin flames to focus on their individual growth and healing.

This separation is not a permanent end to the twin flame connection, but rather a necessary phase for both twins to work on themselves before they can come back together in a healthier and more balanced way.

During this stage, twin flames may also have a reunion with their soul family or spiritual community. This can help both individuals gain insight and support as they navigate through this period of separation.

Read this article if you are struggling with the separation stage .

Currently, I am going through a separation stage with my twin flame. It has been over a year since we last saw each other and we have limited contact, as we now reside in different countries. While being apart is not always easy, our deep spiritual connection remains strong.

To navigate this separation, I prioritize my inner growth and purpose. I have also connected with like-minded individuals and communities to discuss spirituality. Meanwhile, my twin flame has been pursuing their own interests and has even entered into a new relationship.

Stage 8: The Surrender

The surrender stage is when both twin flames have fully surrendered to the Universe and trust in divine timing . This stage requires inner strength, patience, and faith in the connection. It is a time when both twins have let go of expectations and control and allow fate to guide them.

During this stage, twin flames may feel a sense of peace and ease, as they no longer try to force their reunion or manipulate the situation. Instead, they learn to trust that the Universe will bring them back together when the time is right.

In this stage, both twin flames will go through a deeper spiritual awakening . Their ego relaxes and they no longer feel the need to prove themselves or compete with each other. There is a sense of unconditional love and acceptance for one another, as they see each other’s flaws and imperfections.

This stage can be challenging as it requires vulnerability and trust, but it is also incredibly rewarding as it allows for a deeper connection between twin flames.

I have experienced a range of emotions in my twin flame journey. At times, I send positive wishes for his new path, while other times, I yearn for his presence.

Although I know deep down that our reunion will happen when the timing is right, I still encounter moments of missing him, blaming him, or feeling hurt and empty. Like others on the twin flame journey, I am navigating this stage, which can be challenging at times.

Stage 9: The Union

The reunion stage is when both twin flames come back together, usually after a period of separation. This can be a joyous and transformative experience, as both individuals have grown and evolved during their time apart.

It is important to note that the reunion may not necessarily result in a romantic relationship, as twin flames can have different paths and purposes in life. However, the bond between twin flames is always unbreakable, and they will continue to support and learn from each other no matter what.

Each individual possesses both masculine and feminine energy, regardless of whether they identify as divine masculine or divine feminine. Achieving this state requires twin flames to comprehend and embrace both aspects of their energy. Once this understanding is reached, twin flames can come together and cultivate a harmonious relationship.

I have not reached union with my twin flame yet!

Final Thoughts

The twin flame journey is a unique and transformative experience that can bring both joy and inner growth. It is important to remember that every individual’s journey is different, and there is no “right” or “wrong” way to experience the stages. The key is to trust the process and have faith that everything will unfold in divine timing.

7 Beautiful Stages of the Twin Flame Journey

1. yearning.

A girl and a guy standing back to back thinking about each other.

In this first stage, you yearn to meet your divine counterpart as you feel incomplete from within. However, you don’t know when your divine companion will come into your life. 

On the other hand, your twin flame is also going through the same scenario, as they’re the other half of your soul. So perhaps  they may be yearning  for you, too.

When the desire is so deep from both sides, your souls find a way to connect. Therefore, if you  haven’t met them  in real, you might:

  • Get their flashes in your vivid dreams.
  • See angel numbers such as 111, 222, or 666.
  • Feel butterflies in your stomach whenever you think about uniting with your twin flame.

This yearning stage aims to pave the way for your twin flame to enter your life. Besides, the groundwork for further emotional and  spiritual progress  is set at this stage, preparing you to meet your eternal partner on the next phase of the journey.

2. The Meet Up

After yearning intensely, the time comes when you  meet your twin flame . 

You feel an  intense spark  within you when you see them for the first time. Also, when you look deep into their eyes, you feel like you’re seeing a reflection of yourself in them.

This experience says your soul has recognized its other half and that you have known the person for many lifetimes. 

Your heart says,  “OMG, how can I feel so much for them? We’ve just met!”  My friend, know this is an incredible moment you haven’t experienced before. 

Apart from this, you might feel like your world has shifted that you can’t explain in words. You might also get scared of the intense feelings and feel like running away from your  spiritual companion .

So, my dear friend, this meet-up stage aims to start the process of  connecting you two into one.  

It’s the start of your spiritual and personal evolvement, a new beginning, and stepping into the next stage of your twin flame journey – the honeymoon period. 

3. Honeymoon Period

Honeymoon phase of a couple, where they're extremely in love with each other.

My friend, till now, you might’ve understood your  divine connection  and sacred feelings for each other. 

Moving further in this honeymoon stage, you both feel completely lost in each other’s love. 

Things take place as if you’re living a perfect dream. You don’t need to worry about what to say; your conversations flow naturally. Besides, you deeply understand each other and love spending time together. 

As it’s the honeymoon stage, your  emotions are heightened,  and your energies are intense. 

Being deeply in love, you tend to overlook each other flaws and behavior. Also, you feel this phase will last forever, and nothing will ever go wrong.  It’s a mesmerizing experience you’ll never forget in this lifetime. 

Unfortunately, this stage is short-lived. I know this is disheartening. But, after all, it’s a journey, and you need to move further. Right? 

Hence, with time, the spark between you starts to fade away, so the bright honeymoon phase gradually takes you to the next dark stage of your twin flame journey. 

4. The Dark Night of the Soul

In the “dark night of the soul” phase, you start noticing the differences in your thoughts, opinions, and personalities. 

Some things trigger your old wounds. Challenges such as physical distance and communication issues start appearing in your relationship, and you feel like your  “twin flame” has become an “old flame.”  

It’s also essential to know your partner might be going through the same in their life. 

Due to these overwhelming situations, there will be mistrust, doubt, jealousy , and confusion in your relationship. You’ll find it almost impossible to come out of this intense loop of dark emotional energy. 

But believe me,  this dark phase comes into your life to test your love, break your ego, and teach you some things.  It’s an opportunity to start the self-reflection and inner work process. 

The Twin Flame journey is not for the faint of heart but for the courageous souls who are willing to face their deepest fears, heal their wounds, and embrace the power of divine love.

5. The Runner-Chaser Stage

A man chasing a woman saying "Please stop! Don't leave me."

The dark stage of your twin flame journey has left you confused and separated. 

Thus, now you both play the roles of the  “runner”  and the  “chaser.”  

In such a case, one of you (runner) might feel like  running away from this relationship . The runner withdraws emotionally as well as physically. On the other hand, the chaser wants to connect with the same intensity as before.

The runner cannot handle these overwhelming emotions and wants to distance themselves entirely from the chaser. They might go away for many years and return only to repeat the cycle.

Truth be told, the runner is subconsciously running away from themselves, their fear, and their insecurities. Also, they need some time to sort things out independently. 

Meanwhile, the chaser wants to fix things instantly. They keep wondering what exactly went wrong in this relationship. 

My friend, know this is the universe’s way of testing you both.  After all, the purpose is to make you confront your deepest fears and let go of being the chaser or the runner. 

Your soul finally decides to surrender once you become weary of this emotional turmoil because now, you must know what you want from this relationship. 

6. Surrender Stage

After going through the “runner and chaser” stage, the chaser might feel more emotionally drained compared to the runner. They feel tired of running behind, which isn’t sustainable. 

So, in this case, if you’re the chaser, you will  feel the need to step back  for your mental well-being. Now, the focus is on yourself. 

When you surrender, you get connected to your higher self. You start getting guidance from the universe, and the spiritual practices you undertake at this stage make you calmer and more peaceful. You become egoless and begin to heal. 

Now, you’re neither waiting for your partner to return nor forcing things to take place. And at this very stage, my friend,  miracles start happening.  

The heavy energies between you and your twin flame slowly settle like mud in clear water, and you get a crystal clear image of your relationship. 

On the other hand, the runner gets space to breathe in the relationship, and they, too, work on themselves and are ready to open the doors for a  reunion.  

7. The Reunion Phase

A girl and a guy hugging each other after reunion.

Finally, the moment you both are awaiting arrives. 

Your souls at the yearning stage were immature. But now, after going through the surrender stage:

  • You are more balanced and mature in your relationship.
  • You are ready to give and receive love.
  • You have learned  the art of kindness , forgiveness, and compassion.
  • You are able to let go of things. 
  • You don’t feel any need to control the other person. 
  • You have worked on your inner self and grown personally and spiritually.

Now, this  doesn’t  mean your life will become a fairytale. There will still be challenges and conflicts in your relationships. But both of you will be able to handle those issues with a mature perspective.

Purpose of the Twin Flame Journey

You and your twin flame’s energies are imbalanced when you have an unfulfilling relationship. Hence, you feel incomplete from within. You don’t know exactly what’s bothering your soul, but subconsciously, it seeks to become whole and decides to walk on the twin flame journey. 

However, it’s also important to know you’re not meant to complete each other because you’re already complete within yourself as a soul. Instead, you have to  complement each other  in a way that brings out the best in both of you. 

Thus, the purpose of the twin flame journey is not to find a romantic partner but to find yourself.  

Your kindred spirit arrives in your life to reflect your emotional, mental, and spiritual self. They trigger your fears, insecurities, and past traumas of many, many lifetimes. 

When all these energies surface, you become overwhelmed and dive deep within your own self. You’re challenged to work on yourself and learn much about your traits.

Thus, in this twin flame journey, you learn to:

  • Give and receive love.
  • Love yourself.
  • Let go of things.
  • Forgive easily.
  • Become egoless.
  • Know your self-worth. 
  • Focus on your personal and spiritual growth.
  • Experience the eternal love along with enlightenment and upliftment of your spirit.

Embracing Your Twin Flame Journey

Embrace your twin flame journey, my friend, because it proves your  deep love  and sacred connection. 

Yes, there’s a lot of emotional turmoil and ups and downs. But believe me, the universe has got your back. It is working tirelessly behind the scenes to align your paths. 

You’re supported and guided at every step of your reunion. Even when your partner is away from you, remember  their unspoken words whisper in silence . You’ll hear those whispers as you both share an incredible bond. 

So, keep walking on this journey with faith because you’ll experience the  most incredible moments  of your life when that reunion stage arrives. 

The twin flame journey is about finding yourself, healing your soul, and spiritual growth. Know this isn’t an overnight process. Embracing the journey is essential to trusting the universe and letting go of things. 

If you feel you’re on the journey, drop the expectation about how it will turn out in the end because it will drive you nuts. 

Just surrender and keep walking through all the stages. A lot will be revealed on the way, along with messages, guidance, and lessons from the universe. The mystery will be automatically solved, and everything will be alright. 

I would just say, get out of your own way and love yourself. 

As someone has said it rightly,

Stop desperately looking for your twin flame. The lack of energy will not attract your twin. Nobody outside yourself can make you feel loved until you love yourself.

A1. The duration of the twin flame journey is unique for everyone.

The journey can be for days, weeks, months, or even years. It all depends on how much time you take to fulfill your purpose.

If you’re conscious, the journey will speed up. Otherwise, you both will be in an on-and-off relationship, experiencing the pain repeatedly.

A2. The twin flame journey is all about soul-level transformation and awakening.

With awakening comes the storm. Thus, you’re emotionally and energetically challenged. This journey makes you look at parts of yourself you would rather ignore. Also, specific patterns repeat until you work on yourself.

However, if you embrace patience and trust in the divine timing, it helps ease the process.

A3. The hardest part of the twin flame journey is waiting for the reunion moment. Deep down, you know you shouldn’t bother about all of these things, but still, you do.

Some people find it challenging to develop spiritually alone because growing and evolving without your twin flame is painful. Also, separation and longing are not easy.

You might also feel you don’t want your twin flame anymore, but your soul won’t let them go. This dilemma makes your twin flame journey difficult.

Twin Flame Stages: A Brief Overview

At the heart of the twin flame journey is the runner-chaser dynamic, often misunderstood and complex.

The runner, typically overwhelmed by the intensity of the connection, may retreat, sparking a series of events that form the core of their journey.

Twin Flame Runner’s Journey

Various scenarios involving the twin flame runner.

  • Sudden Departure: The runner leaves abruptly, often without warning.
  • Emotional Withdrawal: The runner might remain physically present but becomes emotionally distant.
  • Denial of Connection: Refusing to acknowledge the depth of the twin flame bond.

7 Stages of a Twin Flame Runner’s Journey

1. initial connection and denial.

In the twin flame journey, the initial connection is often marked by an undeniable and intense attraction.

This magnetic pull is more than just a romantic or physical attraction; it’s a deep, soulful connection that feels both familiar and overwhelming.

However, this intensity often leads to denial, especially for the twin flame runner .

The runner may feel unprepared or scared of the depth of emotions and the sense of vulnerability that this connection brings.

This denial is not just a refusal to acknowledge the bond but a defense mechanism to protect themselves from the overwhelming intensity of the connection.

2. Emotional Turmoil and Confusion

Following the initial connection, both twin flames , especially the runner, experience emotional turmoil and confusion.

This stage is characterized by a rollercoaster of emotions, where moments of profound love and happiness are interspersed with fear, doubt, and uncertainty.

The runner often struggles to understand why this relationship feels so different and intense compared to others.

It’s a period of inner conflict, where the heart and mind are at odds, leading to confusion and sometimes irrational decisions.

3. Fear and Overwhelm

Fear is a predominant emotion for the twin flame runner . It’s not just the fear of the unknown or the fear of getting hurt, but also the fear of the intensity of the connection itself.

The overwhelming nature of this bond can make the runner feel like they are losing their sense of self.

This fear often manifests as a fear of commitment or a fear of not being good enough for the connection.

It’s a crucial stage where the runner is confronted with their deepest insecurities and fears.

4. Running or Avoidance Phase

The running or avoidance phase is where the twin flame runner physically or emotionally withdraws from the connection.

This stage is often misunderstood as a lack of love or care, but in reality, it’s a coping mechanism.

The runner, overwhelmed by the intensity of the connection and their own fears, finds it easier to run away than to face these intense emotions.

This phase can be painful for both the runner and the chaser, as it involves separation, either physically or emotionally.

5. Self-Reflection and Realization

After running, the runner often enters a phase of self-reflection and realization.

In the solitude of their separation, they start to process their emotions and understand the significance of the twin flame connection.

This is a pivotal stage where the runner begins to acknowledge their fears, insecurities, and the reasons behind their running.

It’s a time of introspection, where they start to see the twin flame connection as a mirror of their own soul.

6. Healing and Growth

Healing and growth are integral parts of the twin flame runner’s journey. This stage is about personal development and self-improvement.

The runner starts to work on their issues, healing old wounds, and overcoming the fears that led them to run in the first place.

This stage is crucial for the evolution of the runner as an individual and for the ultimate reunion with their twin flame.

7. Reconsideration and Reconnection

The final stage in the twin flame runner’s journey is the reconsideration and reconnection.

Here, the runner, having gone through a period of self-reflection and growth, starts to reconsider their need to run.

They begin to understand the true value of the twin flame connection and yearn for a reunion.

This stage is marked by a renewed sense of maturity and readiness to embrace the twin flame connection fully.

Navigating the Twin Flame Journey: Recognizing the Runner’s Signs

Understanding the signs of a twin flame runner is crucial in navigating this complex journey.

Recognizing these signs helps both parties comprehend the underlying dynamics of their connection.

These signs might include an initial deep connection followed by sudden withdrawal, a pattern of pushing away and pulling closer, or an evident struggle with deep-set fears and insecurities.

Breaking Bonds: Understanding the Twin Flame Runner’s Breakup Stage

The breakup stage is a critical phase in the twin flame journey, particularly for the runner.

It’s often characterized by confusion, pain, and a sense of loss. Understanding this stage involves recognizing the runner’s need for space and self-discovery.

This breakup is not the end but a necessary part of the journey towards growth and eventual reunion.

The Runner-Chaser Dynamic: Unraveling Twin Flame Stages

The runner-chaser dynamic is a fundamental aspect of the twin flame relationship.

This pattern involves one partner running from the intensity of the connection, while the other chases, longing for closeness and union.

Understanding this dynamic is key to comprehending the stages of the twin flame journey and the lessons each partner needs to learn.

Awakening Insights: Signs of the Twin Flame Runner’s Transformation

The transformation of the twin flame runner is marked by awakening insights.

These signs include a shift in perspective, a newfound understanding of the spiritual significance of the connection, and a willingness to confront personal fears and insecurities.

This transformation is a turning point in the twin flame journey, leading towards growth and eventual reunion.

Moments of Clarity: The Twin Flame Runner’s Path to Realization

Moments of clarity are significant milestones in the twin flame runner’s path to realization.

These are moments where the runner gains insight into the true nature of their connection and their own inner workings.

Such moments often lead to a profound change in how the runner perceives the relationship and their role in it.

Obstacles in Harmony: How the Twin Flame Chaser Blocks the Runner

In the twin flame journey, the chaser can unknowingly create obstacles that block the runner’s progress.

This can happen through excessive pressure, lack of understanding of the runner’s need for space, or an inability to focus on their own growth.

Recognizing these obstacles is crucial for the chaser to aid in the harmonious progression of the journey.

Role Reversal: Exploring the Switch Between Twin Flame Runner and Chaser

Role reversal is a fascinating aspect of the twin flame journey. At times, the runner becomes the chaser, and vice versa.

This switch often occurs when one partner has undergone significant personal growth and the other begins to reflect on their actions and emotions.

Understanding this role reversal can provide deeper insights into the dynamics of the twin flame relationship.

Coming to Terms with Reunion: A Possibility

The possibility of reunion is a central aspect of the twin flame journey.

Coming to terms with this possibility involves both the runner and chaser understanding and accepting the lessons learned throughout their journey.

It’s about finding balance, harmony, and a mutual readiness to embrace the connection in its entirety.

Guiding Them Back Into Your Life

  • Embrace Personal Growth: Focus on your own emotional and spiritual development. Use this time apart to understand yourself better and address any personal issues or insecurities.
  • Cultivate Self-Love: Learn to love and accept yourself fully. This is crucial in creating a healthy foundation for any reunion. Remember, the relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship.
  • Practice Patience: Understand that the twin flame journey is a process and may take time. Be patient with yourself and your twin flame, recognizing that each person has their own pace of growth and healing.
  • Open Communication: If and when communication is re-established, ensure it is honest, open, and compassionate. Avoid blame and focus on expressing your feelings and needs clearly.
  • Seek Understanding: Try to see things from your twin flame’s perspective. This empathy can help bridge gaps and heal misunderstandings.
  • Maintain Emotional Independence: While the twin flame connection is powerful, it’s essential to maintain your emotional independence and not rely entirely on your twin flame for your happiness or sense of self-worth.
  • Let Go of Expectations: Release any specific expectations about how and when the reunion should happen. Trust in the natural flow of your journey and understand that what is meant to be will unfold in its own time.
  • Stay Open to Outcomes: Be open to the possibility that the outcome might be different from what you initially hoped for. Sometimes the greatest growth and learning come from unexpected developments.
  • Nurture Your Spiritual Connection: Whether through meditation, prayer, or another form of spiritual practice, nurturing your inner connection can provide strength and guidance on this journey.
  • Seek Support: Don’t hesitate to seek support from friends, family, or professionals who understand the twin flame concept. A supportive community can provide comfort and guidance.

Common Questions About The Chaser/Runner or Misconceptions

  • What are the common misconceptions about the twin flame runner’s intentions, and how do they affect the journey? Misconceptions about the runner’s intentions often include the belief that they don’t care or are avoiding commitment. These misunderstandings can create unnecessary pain and hinder the journey’s progress. It’s important to understand that the runner’s actions are often driven by deep-seated fears and overwhelming emotions, not a lack of love.
  • How can the twin flame chaser support the runner during their journey? The chaser can support the runner by maintaining a sense of understanding and patience. Offering space, focusing on their own growth, and avoiding pressure are key ways the chaser can aid the runner. It’s about creating a safe environment for the runner to explore their fears and insecurities.
  • What role does self-love play in the twin flame runner’s journey? Self-love is fundamental in the twin flame runner’s journey. It’s about the runner learning to value themselves, address their insecurities, and embrace their worthiness of the profound connection they share with their twin flame. This journey towards self-love often leads to significant personal growth and a better understanding of the twin flame connection.
  • Can twin flames be together in a harmonious relationship after going through the runner-chaser dynamic? Yes, twin flames can achieve a harmonious relationship after experiencing the runner-chaser dynamic. This requires both individuals to undergo personal growth, understanding, and healing. The journey is about overcoming fears, learning lessons, and reaching a stage of balance and mutual respect.

Why Did They Run?

  • The Fear of Intensity: Many twin flame runners flee due to the overwhelming intensity of the connection. It’s a natural reaction to something that feels larger than life and beyond their control.
  • Self-Doubt and Insecurities: Runners often struggle with self-doubt and insecurities, questioning their worthiness of such a profound connection. This self-questioning leads to running as a way to escape confronting these deep-seated issues.

What to Avoid: Married Men/Women Who Won’t Leave Their Committed Relationships

In the journey of twin flame runners, a particularly complex scenario arises when the runner is already in a committed relationship or marriage.

Here are some key considerations and advice for navigating such situations:

  • Respect Existing Commitments: It’s crucial to respect the existing commitments and relationships of all involved parties. Engaging in a relationship with someone who is already committed, especially if they show no intention of leaving their current situation, can lead to ethical dilemmas and emotional turmoil.
  • Understand the Implications: If your twin flame is married and unwilling to leave their spouse, it’s important to understand the implications this has for you. Staying in such a dynamic can often lead to a cycle of hope and disappointment, affecting your emotional well-being.
  • Recognize the Runner’s Justifications: Sometimes, twin flame runners use their current commitments as an excuse to avoid facing the intensity of the twin flame connection. It can turn into a toxic game, the runner has nothing to lose and walks away destroying the chaser’s value and self-worth.
  • Prioritize Self-Love and Dignity: Maintaining your self-respect and dignity is paramount. This means not settling for a situation where you are the ‘other’ person or where your needs and feelings are not fully acknowledged or respected.
  • Avoid Rationalizing the Situation: Be wary of rationalizing or romanticizing the idea of being with someone who is unavailable. It’s easy to get caught up in the twin flame narrative and ignore the practical and ethical aspects of such a relationship.
  • Set Healthy Boundaries: Establish and maintain clear boundaries. If the situation doesn’t align with your values or leads to emotional distress, it might be necessary to distance yourself from the relationship.
  • Focus on Your Personal Journey: Use this experience as an opportunity for personal growth. Reflect on what this situation teaches you about your desires, boundaries, and values.
  • Seek Emotional Support: Navigating such emotionally complex scenarios can be challenging. Seeking support from friends, family, or professionals can provide perspective and emotional relief.
  • Explore the Reasons for Attraction: Sometimes, being attracted to someone who is unavailable can reflect deeper personal issues or unmet emotional needs. Exploring these reasons can provide valuable insights into your emotional patterns and help in healing.
  • Be Open to Other Possibilities: Remember that the twin flame journey is as much about your personal spiritual growth as it is about union. Be open to the possibility that your path may lead you to different, yet fulfilling, relationships or experiences.

Action to Take

For those on the twin flame journey, especially the runners, it’s crucial to engage in self-reflection and personal growth.

Embracing your fears, understanding your insecurities, and learning to value yourself are essential steps.

For the chasers, providing support, patience, and focusing on your own growth are key actions. It’s about working towards a balanced and harmonious connection.

The twin flame journey, especially for the runner, is a complex and transformative experience.

Understanding the stages, dynamics, and challenges involved is crucial for both the runner and chaser.

It’s a journey not just towards reunion but towards personal growth, self-discovery, and spiritual awakening.

  • What is the twin flame runner-chaser dynamic? The runner-chaser dynamic is a phase in the twin flame journey where one partner (the runner) withdraws from the connection, and the other (the chaser) pursues them.
  • Can the roles of runner and chaser switch? Yes, the roles can switch, often when one partner undergoes significant growth and the other starts to reflect on their actions.
  • How long can the runner phase last? The duration of the runner phase varies greatly and depends on the individual’s personal growth and willingness to confront their fears.
  • Is reunion guaranteed in the twin flame journey? Reunion in the twin flame journey is not guaranteed. It depends on the personal growth, healing, and readiness of both individuals to embrace the connection in a balanced and harmonious manner.

The 8 Real Twin Flame STAGES Explained: Reaching Reunion Faster

Twin Flame Stages

twin flame journey stages reddit

There are several twin flame stages that you must move through before reuniting and being together forever. 

The 8th twin flame stage IS reunion, so there are 7 stages before that. 

How long does it take? 

Well, it can take different lengths of time, and it really depends on the work YOU do on yourself, which we’ll get to at the end of this post. 

Table of Contents

How many twin flame stages are there?

There are 8 main stages that twin flames must go through before becoming ‘reunited’ and finally together forever. These stages can take different lengths of time, but every twin flame couple must go through these stages.

  • Yearning for the One
  • Glimpsing or meeting them
  • Falling in love (hopelessly)
  • The dream relationship
  • The turmoil stage
  • The running and chasing stage

The twin flame stages are what EVERY twin flame couple has to go through.

Because this is not like an ordinary relationship. 

twin flame journey stages reddit

This is special, and there are levels to this. Before you can reunite with your twin flame, there are some things that need clearing up and sorting out.

But don’t despair.

These stages can be moved through quickly. At the end of this post, we’ll give some tips for reaching reunion FASTER. Divine timing is largely a myth, and YOU can make reunion happen faster. 

The 8 true twin flame stages explained

Here are the main stages a true twin flame couple must go through before that elusive ‘reunion’. 

Let’s begin with the first stage: 

1: Yearning for ‘The One’

The yearning stage stage usually lasts the longest.

This is the stage of your life before you meet your twin flame where you just KNOW there’s someone out there that’s PERFECT for you. 

You know it with every piece of your heart, and you might even feel like things are missing in most of your relationships, until you meet your twin flame.

twin flame journey stages reddit

Sure, you can have happy relationships and even fall in love several times before meeting your twin, but there’s always a little gap. Something’s off, and you KNOW there’s something else, something better out there.

You don’t know how you know, but you know.

Like Neo in the Matrix, you have a splinter in your mind. You’re not sure why or how you feel this way, but you know something’s not right yet. 

2: Glimpsing or meeting them

This is where you MEET your twin flame. 

And this can happen both in real life or in dreams and the astral realm.

Important to realise that this stage might happen without you realising it at first, for example in dreams that you don’t remember. 

But for most of us?

This is where you physically meet or see your twin flame. You might even see them online, or see a photo of them. But for most people, you’ll run into them physically, in real life. 

You might even talk to them or lock eyes with them and feel ‘something’s different about this one’. 

You’ll feel very curious to learn more about them and spend more time with them. You might want to get their contact information so you an maybe go on a date with them. They might start appearing more often in your life after this.

3: Falling in love (hopelessly)

This twin flame stage usually happens after you’ve met your twin flame a couple of times. 

Usually, you’ll both realise very quickly after meeting and locking eyes that something’s up. You’ll both be fascinated with each other and want to spend more time together. 

So this is where you’ll fall in love.

And you’ll fall hard now. 

You’ll feel like nothing you’ve ever experience before, and it’s very intense. It’s a beautiful stage of the twin flame journey, enjoy it! Give yourself completely to your twin at this stage, and don’t hold anything back.

The truth is, you won’t really have a choice anyway! It will feel very much like you’re FALLING for them, and you have no control over how you feel. 

4: The dream relationship

This is almost always the SAME as the previous stage, the falling in love stage. Pretty soon after the falling in love stage (or roughly at the same time) you’ll feel like you’re living in a fairy tale. 

The relationship just feels perfect. Like a dream. 

And it seems like nothing can or will go wrong. You feel complete, safe, and satisfied in every possible way. This is also a beautiful stage, enjoy it!

5: The turmoil stage

The Turmoil stage is where personal issues, insecurities and flaws come up. 

But don’t worry, this was part of the plan from the start. It’s going to happen, just stay true to yourself and act out of love always. This stage might only last a few days, or it might last longer. 

In some twin flame couples, this can be in the form of intense arguments and fights that seem to have no escape. It can feel like you should walk away in some cases. Here’s some important things to remember:

  • Mainly these arguments are designed to remove insecurities and make you stronger
  • Violence and/or abuse are NOT part of ANY twin flame design, walk away if this happens

6: The running and chasing stage

The running and chasing stage can be described like this:

One or both twins will feel so challenged and/or scared of the intensity of the relationship that they’ll run away. This running can be in the form of: 
  • Turning to alcohol or drugs
  • Turning to other people
  • Avoiding or ignoring each other
  • Physically leaving the relationship and actually running away

How long does it last? 

twin flame journey stages reddit

It can last YEARS. 

It really depends on how much work you’ve done on yourself, and what stage you’re at in your personal growth journey. There are some powerful ways to reunite with your twin flame faster, explained at the bottom of this post.

7: Surrender

After some time, you’ll both realise that you’re helpless.

You’re helpless in avoiding each other.

You’re hopelessly in love, and you can’t get each other off your minds. This is where you’ll be brought back together, and you’ll fall lovingly into each others arms. 

But this usually happens after you’ve done WORK on yourselves. In the form of self love, stepping into your purpose and raising your frequency. This SOMETIMES takes a very long time, and for some twins it can take years.

There are stories of twin flames taking so long to reach this stage, that they’ve ended up married to someone else or have children with someone else . That of course can be very confusing and annoying, but there are ways of avoiding that. 

8: REUNION!

The beautiful twin flame reunion stage. 

This feels like coming home. 

You’ll reach reunion only when you’re on the same vibrational level, and ready to reunite. This can take days, weeks or even years, it really depends. For me and Julia it took a few months, and yes, we DID experience the running stage.

But once you reach reunion, you’ll usually stay together forever. You’ll feel very secure and comfortable within the relationship and although arguments will happen, you’ll never break up once you’ve reunited. 

Do the twin flame stages always happen in that order?

Twin flame stages can happen in SEVERAL different orders. You might find for example, that your ‘dream relationship’ stage happens AFTER the running stage. You might alternatively find that you enter the honeymoon stage, and THEN have the running and chasing stage, AND THEN reunite much later.

It really depends, and every twin flame couple is different. For me and Julia, we have them in the following order: 
  • Yearning for the one
  • Meeting the one
  • Falling in love
  • Running chasing stage

How long do twin flame stages last?

The twin flame stages can take different lengths of time. We don’t want to give a length of time for each stage, because it varies massively. 

For example, our running stage lasted about 2-3 months, while for other twin flame couples it can last for just a few weeks, or a few YEARS.

It really varies massively. 

What’s really important to remember is that you’ll make the first few stages go by quicker if you do more work on yourself, and raise your vibrations in order to match your twin flame and your core frequency.

How to reach reunion faster

There are several ways you can reunite and reach the final twin flame stage: 
  • Work on yourself : Do work on yourself including meditation, self love, stepping into your purpose and acting out of love in everything you do
  • Raise your vibrations : This is our Ebook we wrote explaining how to raise your vibrations by doing these exercises and techniques. By raising your vibrations you’ll attract your twin flame faster

We’ve put together a detailed course called  the Twin Flame Reunion Fast Track , which shows you a multistep plan that will help attract your twin flame. It will bring you into reunion much faster. The work you do on yourself following this course will also affect your twin flame.

In the fascinating realm of spiritual connections, the term ‘Twin Flames’ evokes a sense of wonder, mystery, and profound depth.

Often viewed as a ‘mirror soul’ or the other half of one’s spirit, a Twin Flame transcends the conventional boundaries of romantic relationships, offering an intense, soul-deep bond that promises spiritual growth and self-discovery.

This mysterious twin flame connection has recently been at the heart of a burgeoning curiosity as more individuals seek meaningful, soul-based relationships amid the superficiality of modern dating.

This escalating interest is further fueled by the captivating journey of Twin Flame stages, an expedition marked not just by passion and romance but also by life-altering lessons, personal transformation, and the unending quest for spiritual union.

As we delve deeper into this extraordinary concept, prepare to unravel the myriad layers of Twin Flames, and explore how this profound connection could potentially redefine your understanding of love, soul ties, and spiritual partnerships.

What are twin flames.

Twin Flames, often characterized by an intense connection and instant recognition, refers to two individuals believed to be different incarnations of the same soul.

This concept, rooted in ancient philosophies, proposes that a soul can split into two after ascending to a high frequency. After that, these souls incarnate over various lifetimes, charting their own life path, but always yearning for reunion.

This reunion is not just about romance, but about the spiritual growth that the twin flame connection facilitates. It’s an uncanny sense of familiarity and a pull towards each other that sets Twin Flames apart from soul mates or karmic relationships.

While a soul mate is a harmonious companion who resonates with you, the Twin Flame relationship can often be tumultuous, forcing both parties to confront and resolve their inner shadows.

On the other hand, Karmic relationships are intense but often short-lived, teaching crucial life lessons before they end.

In contrast, Twin Flames serve not just as mirrors but also as catalysts of personal transformation, propelling us towards the highest versions of ourselves.

Twin Flame Meaning

At its core, the concept of Twin Flames transcends the common notion of a romantic partner. It delves into the metaphysical, encapsulating a deep soul connection that serves as a conduit for spiritual growth and self-discovery.

Twin Flames are often depicted as two halves of the same soul, a concept deeply rooted in spiritual philosophy.

This spiritual bond is not merely about companionship. Rather, it’s an intense connection that mirrors our deepest desires, fears, and aspirations, fostering a profound journey of personal evolution.

While the Twin Flame can indeed be a romantic partner, the relationship extends beyond the physical realm. It becomes a transformational experience, catalyzing profound spiritual growth and awakening.

The significance of this connection lies in its potential to push us towards our higher selves.

Through the mirror of our Twin Flame, we are confronted with our shadow sides and are propelled to undertake the arduous yet rewarding journey of self-discovery and personal betterment. This, in essence, is the true meaning of the Twin Flame connection.

Angel Numbers and Twin Flames

In the esoteric realm of Twin Flames, Angel Numbers play a significant role. These sequences, believed to be messages from the divine, often appear at opportune times, providing guidance and affirmation to Twin Flames on their spiritual journey.

A strong sense of resonance with these numbers can serve as common signs of this profound connection.

Certain Angel Numbers, such as 111 , 222, or 717 , are frequently associated with Twin Flame relationships.

For instance, 111 is often interpreted as a signal of a pending union or spiritual awakening, while 717 may indicate a harmonious balance in a Twin Flame relationship.

These celestial nudges, embedded in the fabric of everyday life, carry deep spiritual significance, acting as cosmic breadcrumbs leading Twin Flames towards their shared destiny.

Their appearance serves as a beacon, illuminating the path for those navigating the intense journey of a Twin Flame connection.

Soul Ties and Twin Flames

Soul Ties refer to deep spiritual connections formed between two individuals, often resulting from intense relationships.

They carry profound spiritual implications, tying people together across time and space. Twin Flames, while similar in essence, take this deep connection to a more profound level.

Both Soul Ties and Twin Flames involve a sense of recognition and a deep bond that transcends the physical. However, a Twin Flame connection is often perceived as the most intense relationship one can experience, marked by a unique resonance that nudges both individuals towards spiritual growth and self-discovery.

While Soul Ties can form between any two individuals sharing significant experiences, Twin Flames are regarded as two halves of the same soul, embarked on a shared spiritual journey.

Hence, while Soul Ties can indeed be transformative, the Twin Flame connection is often seen as a catalyst for profound spiritual awakening.

Twin Flames and Soul Contracts

Soul Contracts are spiritual agreements made before birth, guiding our relationships and experiences for maximum soul growth. They bear great significance in Twin Flame relationships, often manifesting as a strange sense of ‘knowing’ or familiarity.

In the context of Twin Flames, these Soul Contracts outline a shared mission and lessons for both individuals. These relationships, while often challenging, provide a unique opportunity for growth and evolution, propelling both towards their highest selves.

Understanding and fulfilling these Soul Contracts in real life requires conscious awareness and effort. It’s about recognizing the patterns, learning the lessons, and leveraging the intense connection for personal and collective growth.

The Twin Flame journey is ultimately a spiritual one, shaped significantly by the underlying Soul Contract, guiding both towards their shared destiny.

The Stages of a Twin Flame Journey

The journey of Twin Flames is a spiritual odyssey filled with peaks and valleys.

Distinct stages characterize it, each playing a crucial role in fostering growth and deepening this extraordinary connection.

These stages, while challenging, are transformative, ultimately leading Twin Flames towards a harmonious union.

Recognition and Awakening

In this initial stage, Twin Flames experience a strong sense of recognition, often accompanied by intense emotions. This overwhelming feeling serves as an awakening, where both individuals become acutely aware of their deep spiritual connection.

The testing phase involves trials that challenge the strength of the Twin Flame connection. Both individuals may grapple with the intensity of their feelings, questioning the reality and purpose of their relationship.

The crisis stage is characterized by heightened emotional turmoil. Differences and conflicts may arise, pushing Twin Flames to confront their deepest fears and insecurities. This stage catalyzes significant personal growth.

Runner and Chaser

One Twin Flame, overwhelmed by the intensity of the connection, may withdraw, becoming the ‘Runner’. The other, driven by the desire for union, becomes the ‘Chaser’. This phase is often a period of intense longing and emotional upheaval.

Surrender comes with the acceptance of the profound connection and destiny shared. Twin Flames begin to release their resistance, understanding that their journey is about spiritual growth, not merely a romantic pursuit.

The joyous reunion stage occurs when both Twin Flames have learned their lessons and are ready to embrace their shared destiny. This stage is marked by a sense of peace and a strong, unshakeable bond.

In the final stage, Twin Flames achieve a harmonious and healthy relationship, balancing their individual identities with their shared mission. They’re fully aligned, supporting each other in their mutual and individual spiritual growth.

Signs You Have Met Your Twin Flame

Meeting your Twin Flame is a life-altering event marked by certain unmistakable signs. The first of these is an intense connection that feels unlike any other.

This unique connection is often characterized by instant recognition, as though you’ve known this person for lifetimes, despite just meeting. This sense of familiarity is often accompanied by profound synchronicities, like shared dreams or parallel life events, that defy conventional explanations.

Being with your Twin Flame often instills a feeling of ‘coming home’, as if everything in your life has led you to this person. However, this intense bond also brings common challenges.

The fear of intense feelings can become overwhelming, leading to the notorious ‘runner-chaser’ dynamic, where one person pulls away, overwhelmed by the depth of the connection, while the other pursues, driven by the irresistible pull towards their Twin Flame.

The Twin Flame journey is also a path of personal growth. It calls for self-awareness, patience, and understanding as both individuals learn to navigate their shared destiny.

Despite the trials, the journey ultimately guides Twin Flames towards a greater sense of self, unconditional love, and an elevated consciousness.

The Purpose of Twin Flame Relationships

Twin Flame relationships serve a profound spiritual purpose. These unique connections catalyze individual growth, pushing both parties towards self-discovery and transformation.

The intense experiences encountered within a Twin Flame relationship – the trials, triumphs, and the profound love – stir an awakening, turning the romantic bond into an awakened relationship.

It’s a journey that extends beyond the physical, shaping the soul and encouraging spiritual enlightenment. This cosmic dance is not just about finding a partner, but also about finding oneself.

Misconceptions about Twin Flames

Twin Flame relationships, often romanticized, can stir up a whirlwind of misconceptions.

Many confuse a Twin Flame with a ‘soul mate’, picturing an ideal, effortless romantic partner. However, the reality is far more complex and transformative.

Another common misconception is equating the challenges within a Twin Flame relationship to a toxic relationship. While Twin Flame connections can be intense and difficult, they fundamentally aim for growth and mutual evolution, unlike toxic relationships that are characterized by harmful patterns and imbalance.

It’s essential to understand the profound nature of these connections .

How to Navigate Your Twin Flame Journey

Navigating the labyrinth of a Twin Flame journey is no small feat. It’s a path that calls for understanding and resilience, as it poses unique, thrilling, and daunting challenges.

Central to this journey is the cultivation of self-love and personal growth. These elements not only shape your individual evolution but also contribute to the collective growth within your Twin Flame relationship.

Managing passionate feelings is a vital part of this journey. While the intensity of emotions can be overwhelming, learning to navigate these feelings can lead to a healthier relationship.

Communication, too, plays a pivotal role in Twin Flame relationships. Open, honest exchanges pave the way for mutual understanding and acceptance, the cornerstones of any strong relationship.

Remember, the Twin Flame journey isn’t about reaching a destination; it’s about continuous growth and exploration. It’s about becoming the best version of oneself and fostering a relationship that mirrors this evolution.

With patience, love, and understanding, your Twin Flame journey can lead to profound self-discovery and an awakened relationship.
