        <description><![CDATA[<span><i>Do Warriors twin with Roles other than Scholars? Please elaborate.</i><br /><br />YES THEY DO; IT IS JUST THAT SCHOLARS SELDOM TWIN WITH OTHER THAN WARRIORS. WARRIORS OFTEN TWIN WITH OTHER WARRIORS, WITH KINGS, AND WITH MANY OTHERS ALSO. SCHOLARS DO NOT OFTEN TWIN WITH OTHER THAN WARRIORS.<br /><br /><span>SOURCE: Michael Teachings Transcripts</span></span>]]>

        <description><![CDATA[<span><i>Can you tell us how to work better with discarnate essence twins?</i><br /><br />MICHAEL: The energy of a discarnate Essence Twin is much more available to the incarnate fragment than it would be if the Essence Twin were also incarnate. This is easily understood when you consider that two fragments who are twinned and who are leading separate lives, possibly in different parts of the world, possibly a generation or more apart, would have little time and possibly no way to connect.<br /><br />With one of the twins discarnate, however, there is no such barrier.  The discarnate twin can put all, or most all, of its attention on the incarnate twin and can often make quite a difference in that life.  Connecting with a discarnate Essence Twin is much like connecting with Essence.  It takes attention and intention, the elements of meditation.<br />Two approaches for cooperation between these two include dream state and the meditative state.  These are closely allied and both usually can be learned. To contact your discarnate Essence Twin in your sleeping time, center your thoughts on what you want to do, make the intention to be available during sleep, make an appointment, if you will, to meet on the astral, and go to sleep.<br /><br />You may or may not remember what transpired when you wake, but be assured that you will have connected.  If there is something that you wish to discuss with your twin, formulate the idea as you make the intention.  Your twin is not infallible and has no more control over people and events than you do, but what your twin does have is an uncluttered view of things, being disassociated from the physical plane and so less obstructed by Maya; less, not totally unobstructed, but less than are you.<br /><br />The second approach may be through meditation.  If you are performing meditation, include in it your desire to communicate with your twin.  Again, you may outline what you would like to discuss and ask that your twin meet you in meditation.  This approach is somewhat harder for some fragments, especially if you are not in the habit of meditation.<br />For those who are, this can be a link to the discarnate twin.<br /><br />If your twin is the same role as you are, the energy expressed may seem to be doubled.  If your twin is a different role, you may feel a distinct tendency toward the qualities of that role, qualities which may be foreign to your own.<br /><br /><span>Channeled by Nancy Gordon</span></span>]]>

        <description><![CDATA[<span><i>Michael said before that they had something to say about “twinning”. Could they comment now?</i><br /><br />TWINNING IS, OF COURSE, THE CLOSEST POSSIBLE OF PHYSICAL RELATIONSHIPS. THIS GOES FOR THE OTHER PLANES ALSO, AND THIS IS WHERE THE CONFUSION REGARDING THE SO-CALLED TWIN SOULS ARISES. FOR INSTANCE, THE QUESTION WAS ASKED OF US SOME TIME AGO CONCERNING THE POSSIBILITY THAT SOULS COULD NOT CHANGE SEX, OR RATHER GENDER, BETWEEN LIVES BECAUSE OF SOME TWIN SOUL FEATURE. IT IS TRUE THAT MOST SOULS DO SEARCH FOR THEIR SOUL MATE, BUT THEY ERR IN ASSUMING THAT THAT TWIN IS OF THE OPPOSITE GENDER, AND CONSEQUENTLY LOSE OUT ON AN EXCEPTIONALLY CLOSE AND REWARDING RELATIONSHIP. TWINNING OCCURS OFTEN AT THE MOMENT THE ENTITY IS CAST FROM THE TAO AND CAN OCCUR BETWEEN ENTITIES CAST AT THE SAME TIME. IN OTHER WORDS, THERE IS SOMETIMES A CROSSOVER, AND THESE TWIN SOULS DO GO THOUGH MANY, USUALLY ALL LIVES TOGETHER. TWINS NORMALLY MAKE BETTER THAN AVERAGE PARTNERS. THEY ALSO MAKE EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD MARRIAGES. THE GENDER DOES NOT MATTER IN THIS AT ALL, ALTHOUGH THIS CULTURE MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR SOME TWINS TO COME TOGETHER. TWINNING IS RARE BETWEEN SOME ROLES, FREQUENT IN OTHERS. SCHOLARS RARELY TWIN AND USUALLY WITH WARRIORS. PRIESTS AND SAGES TWIN MOST OF THE TIME, ARTISANS AND SLAVES FREQUENTLY, KINGS RARELY. PHYSICAL TWINNING CAN ALSO STRIKE AN UNERASABLE BOND THAT CONTINUES THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THE PHYSICAL CYCLE, DRIVING THESE SOULS TOGETHER AGAIN AND AGAIN. THE CLOSENESS OF TWINNING IS A VERY SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP. YOU CHOOSE TO PLAY OUT SEQUENCES WITH THE FORMER TWIN.<br /><br /><i>What is the purpose of twinning?</i><br /><br />THE NATURAL IMPULSE OF FRAGMENTS TO REUNITE.<br /><br /><i>What’s the difference?</i><br /><br />GRADATIONS ONLY. SOME PHYSICAL TWINS ARE NOT DRAWN AS STRONGLY TO THEIR TWINS AS ARE THE ESSENCE TWINS. THERE ARE OTHER EXAMPLES: WE WOULD BE INTERESTED IN ANY FEELINGS OF THE GROUP. WE SENSE INSIGHTS.<br />ESSENCE TWINNING OCCURS AT THE MOMENT THE ENTITIES ARE CAST FROM THE TAO. PHYSICAL TWINNING CAN OCCUR AT ANY TIME ON THE CYCLE. YOU MAY HAVE BOTH AN ESSENCE AND A PHYSICAL TWIN. OLD SOULS WHO ARE SEEKERS, AND, YES, ALSO MATURE AND YOUNG SEEKERS, TOO, FREQUENTLY RECOGNIZE EACH OTHER.<br /><br /><i>But why does twinning occur? What is it?</i><br /><br />TWINNING IS AN ALMOST NATURAL IMPULSE OF THE HUMAN SPECIES AND ONE OF THE LEAST UNDERSTOOD. THE DESIRE TO JOIN WITH ANOTHER OF LIKE MIND SUPERSEDES ALL OTHER IMPULSES, EVEN SOMETIMES THOSE NECESSARY FOR SURVIVAL IN A HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT. THOSE WITH RECLUSIVE OVERLEAVES DO NOT EXHIBIT THIS IMPULSE AS STRONGLY AS OTHERS, BUT IT STILL HAPPENS TO THEM ALSO. THIS PROCESS HAS BECOME EXTREMELY BLURRED BY THE CULTURAL TABOOS AND THE ISOLATION THAT PERMEATES THE WAY OF LIFE. THERE IS SO MUCH SUSPICION ON THE PHYSICAL PLANE THAT THE TRULY INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP OF TWINS IS ALL BUT PRECLUDED, ESPECIALLY IF THE TWIN HAPPENS TO BE OF THE SAME GENDER.<br /><br /><i>Do whales twin?</i><br /><br />YES, ALL CREATURES OF REASON TWIN.<br /><br /><i>Is it a random process?</i><br /><br />NO, IT IS ELECTIVE AND BASED UPON INITIALLY COMPATIBLE OVERLEAVES. THIS OF COURSE MEANS THAT THE OVERLEAVES OF THE TWINS WILL NOT ALWAYS BE COMPATIBLE, WHICH MAKES SOME STRAINED BUT STILL VERY SPECIAL RELATIONSHIPS. IN SOME INSTANCES THE TWINS ARE DRAWN TOGETHER IN A LOVE-HATE RELATIONSHIP THAT DEFIES REASON. <br /><br /><i>Someone asked if his essence twin was in the group.</i><br /><br />FIRST OF ALL, PERHAPS WE SHOULD REITERATE A BIT. THERE IS OF COURSE A VERY SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ESSENCE TWINS, AND OF COURSE, THIS IS DESIRABLE AND MANY WANT IT. BUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF THIS SHOULD COME IN ON AN INTUITIVE LEVEL IN ORDER TO BE VERIFIABLE. FOR US TO SIMPLY TELL YOU THAT SO AND SO IS YOUR ESSENCE TWIN WOULD ONLY LURE YOU INTO PERCEIVING A FALSE SET OF SPECIFICATIONS. IF YOU VERIFY THIS ON AN INTUITIVE LEVEL, IT WOULD BE EASILY VERIFIABLE. THIS GROUP IS AS WE HAVE SAID, A BIT UNUSUAL IN THAT YOU ALL TWINNED. SOME OF YOU KNOW YOUR TWINS. OTHERS HAVE SIMPLY TAKEN RATHER WILD GUESSES, BASED UPON STRONG PHYSICAL ATTRACTIONS. PLEASE BE ASSURED THAT TWINNING DOES PRODUCE AN ALMOST UNBREAKABLE BOND — A STRONG BOND YOU ARE USUALLY AWARE OF ON AN INTUITIVE LEVEL, LONG BEFORE YOU CAN EXPRESS IT VERBALLY.<br /><br /><i>Someone asked if essence twins are usually born in the same locale.</i><br /><br />NOT ALWAYS. SOME MUST TRAVEL MANY MILES AND SPEND MANY YEARS SEARCHING.<br /><br /><span>SOURCE: Michael Teachings Transcripts</span></span>]]>
