In 1998 I met my Spiritual Twin or Twin soul who is the Alpha polarized half of our spirit to me, the Omega polarized half of our spirit. When I met my twin, we experienced tantric union and this ignited my kundalini and I experienced kundalini rising. This process that occurs when the spiritual twins come together is referred to as tantric or inner union. The Lovers tarot card explains this "inner union" very well. In a beautiful book entitled "The Tarot and You" by Lindel Barker Revell, it is explained that "the Lovers tarot card speaks about love and lovers. Stories and myths tell of the importance of a "sacred marriage" to spiritual growth. This inner union with the Beloved of the Soul is as important as outer union with an earthly beloved". Therefore, when the spiritual twins meet, the tantric union that occurs facilitates kundalini rising and the uniting of the earth chakras to the heaven chakras. This is the metaphysics behind the beauty of the love between twin souls. It is not necessary to be with your twin soul in order to experience inner union. This is explained in more detail in my Spiritual Wholeness article.

As an interesting sidenote - my male twin's natal sun which is masculine and yang in nature is in a very tight conjunction with a 1 degree orb to my natal moon which is feminine and yin in nature. Another highly resonant male/female astrological vibration that my twin and I have between us is our Mars/Venus contact. My male twin's Mars is in Aries which is masculine Mars's natural astrological home. My Venus is in Libra which is feminine Venus's natural astrological home. These very balanced male/female energies between Mars/Venus and Sun/Moon were very positive astrological vibrations of resonant energies to be in place and very conducive for the above mentioned kundalini ignition that I experienced.

Other positive astrological aspects that we share are the Sun (him) conjunct the Ascendant (me), Venus (him) conjunct the Moon (me) and the Ascendant (me). Another very positive aspect that we have is a Chiron(him)/Midheaven(me) exact 0 degree orb conjunction. Some astrologers believe that the MC or midheaven represents the crown chakra or spiritual awareness of the individual and that the IC or Imum Coeli represents the root chakra of the individual. Chiron is the bridge to spiritual awareness or the unconscious. "Chiron is the energetic gate from form (or Saturn) to higher awareness, Uranus. Uranus is illumination; it is kundalini breakthrough" (Barbara Hand Clow from "Chiron - Rainbow bridge between the Inner and Outer Planets" pg. 10). Therefore, one of the interpretations of the Chiron/Midheaven(MC) conjunction between individuals is that the Chiron person is empowering the MC person to reach enlightenment or the crown chakra, which connects to the higher self. The Chiron person heals the person they connect with in the area they connect in, therefore, my twin was in effect healing my consciousness by triggering my spiritual awakening.

In an article entitled "Toward a New Scientific Astrology", Dr. Narada Moy, the author, states that the Nadir (base chakra) represents the Divine Mother or Shakti energy and the Midheaven (crown chakra) represents the Divine Father energy. Dr. Moy states that "The crown chakra is the that attracts to us the light of the Divine Father, the I AM Presence, while the base chakra, integrates this with the material world, the Divine Mother, the Shatki energy of accomplishment". The Father (Sun) gives the light to the Mother and helps to heal her. So this Chiron/MC synastry connection between my twin and I means that my twin is giving me the Father energy to help heal my connection to my higher consciousness. My twin had to connect with my crown in order for me to take in his healing father energy, since it is the crown that the father energy comes through - My twin was directly and powerfully connecting with my crown with a zero degree conjunction - the most powerful aspect available- in order to give me healing father energy.

To further corroborate this interpretation, on the day that my spiritual twin and I met, the sun was transiting my natal moon and was in a zero degree conjunction with my natal moon, which is in my 12th house of the unconscious/subconscious. Symbolically this means that the sun (represented by my twin) was lighting up my subconscious/unconscious (represented by my moon in the 12th house). This sun/moon conjunction that occurred in the sign of Gemini on the day we met also indicates the total unification of the male and female energies.

Additionally on the day we met, transiting Pluto (planet of deep and permanent transformation), was conjuncting my natal Jupiter (planet of wisdom) and sextiling my Venus (planet of love). These Plutonion contacts manifested permanent and deep transformation in my life in the areas of wisdom and love.

With the exceptions of our Mars/Venus contact and Chiron/Midheaven contact, all of the other aspects between my twin and I that I have mentioned above occur in the sign of Gemini, the sign of the twins.

Please be aware that each twin set will have different astrological configurations between them and that the astrology between my twin and I will not necessarily be the same as that between you and your twin. This will depend on many varied factors including shared and individual karma, talents that the twins share and so much more. It is not always easy to determine if individuals are twin souls based on their astrological synastry. I really learned through my own intuition that he was my twin soul and then the astrology simply corroborated this for me.

In summary, when two individuals with strong resonant energy vibrations come together, as is the case with twin souls with their positive/negative, male/female energies, their energies blend in the lower chakras and this awakens the kundalini.

I just wanted to post because I think I should get into tantric sex. Are there like practitioners who teach this.
