I wanted to know how others felt about soul recognitions. I've had two experiences so far, each different but with the same sign combination (Leo/Capricorn). I felt all 3 of my 7th house planets with both these people, or at least that's what I'm attributing this to.

The first one I saw him and I knew he would be an important person to me, and he was, but is no longer in my life. He was an emotional vampire, but even during the worst times I REALLY felt like it was something occurring from a past life. He was my father, mother, and best friends all rolled into one person - weirdest thing ever.

I met him through a friend and it was like someone dumped cold water on my veins. I KNEW him, the best I can describe it is like my soul recognized him from a past life. We liked the same exact things, it was uncanny. Like ordering the same meal at the same time and then looking at each other like we're crazy. Having the same exact idiosynchrocies, picking out the same stuff or needing the same supplies the same day but we're apart. What's different about THIS connection though is there was not NEARLY as much emotion involved as in the first. I wonder if objectivity is what allowed us to be so intuitively bound.

Which leads me to ask... am I the crazy one because it's me who feel What do you do in these situations when you "know" the other person like they are your twin and they don't see it, or see what you're talking about? How are you supposed to act otherwise? Is there a name for such a connection?

No conjunctions like that, just Jupiter in their 4th house overlaying my 11th, with my Aries stellium. Oh, and their Neptune in my 7th.

However, both of them were born the first week of August, the same year, and at 6 pm. Or that's the time they gave me, anyway.

I've had times like that, where I feel like I've 'known' someone, and I've noticed that a lot of the time there are lots of exact aspects and double whammys.

Did they acknowledge this connection, too? The first one acknowledged it kind of... and the second guy didn't at all and didn't understand why I was so frustrated with him.

You know...

I never really discussed it with the ones that I dated. One was an atheist so he didn't believe in it anyway, and the other... it was just never something that was discussed openly.

I've had a few friends where I've felt the same kind of past life connection with, but not as strongly, and those people usually felt the same way and also had some close aspects to my chart.

You know, I usually just acknowledge the connection inwardly and keep note of it. No more no less. If it comes up in conversation and the other people feels the same way, great, if not- eh. I figure the feeling is more meant for me anyway- like that person is going to be teaching me something important or I need to be mindful of how I treat that person and how they treat me.

Some people call it soulmates, some people call it twin flames, karmic connections, etc. I just think it's all synonyms for the same thing. Our souls are all eternal and we all ultimately come from the same source- so we are just recognizing a part of ourselves or our history in that other person.

I get this feeling with some people. It's rare but a specefic feeling. I don't really see it until hindsight reflection. There is always a common theme with them though, they either have a strong scorpio or aquarius presence in them.

if you had this sense of recognition with someone who does not know of you, let's say, this person is a socialite/politician/celebrity and so on. in other words, someone out of your reach.

is there a possibility that you will meet the person in the future? or are there twin flames/karmic souls that you just dont meet in this lifetime?

i swear ive seen this person before....maybe in a past life or dreams

I think...it takes a certain amount of awareness to acknowledge things like this for most people.

I forget what aspect or placement I have in my chart that basically says *most* of the relationships I have this life are all karmic related and are soulmates. That for some reason, we've all come back to kind of 'kick it' so to speak.

I know the feeling you are describing, and I'm experiencing it right now. Almost always, there is a 12th house connection for me. The most immediate way I recognize it, are from the eyes and I just 'feel' a certain way about them, like almost coming from my heart it seems. It's like we just see straight through each other, completely bare with no chance of holding anything back on an intuitive level...

Bringing those 'unconscious' or 'subconscious' recognitions to the conscious level for discussion openly...well, it just requires two very self-aware people up for the challenge of exploring those depths. I think often times, one recognizes the linkage and the other days until wayyyy down the line (my experience). Many are not willing, as it is hard to handle such intense, unexplainable feelings that defy rational thought. They almost always come around though. In either case, enjoy!

Thats an interesting one, i wonder how many people have actually met the celebrities they knew they just had a connection with.

I can think of one person i get that wierd familiarity feeling with, its strange!

I know I have a connection to one celebrity as delusional as it sounds! I know this because I am not one who has ever really liked any one celebrities or followed them, nor am I one who gets emotional easily however I get emotional when this specific celebrity does, and there are other small weird similarities between us. But I hate trying to explain it to anyone because it's a celebrity and there are thousands if not millions of other people who probably think the same way.

YES! It's lightening fast and there's really no emotion behind it, it feels more like fact than something dreamy and intense. Although there can be an instant love, I suppose.

Interesting. Kind of makes you wonder if anyone has felt that way for you but never expressed it.
