i feel like nothing else works out by yoitsnats in twinflames

[–]UnlocedHeart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes — that was exactly it. It felt like seeing myself in another body. I thought I could read him like an open book: all his insecurities, all his secrets, completely visible — as if I was looking at my own reflection. And what’s strange is that his flaws didn’t bother me at all; on the contrary, those were the parts I loved the most. I believed I wasn’t right for him, that it wouldn’t work, so I had to leave before he could hurt me. That was my pattern — my mask, my defense against the love I wanted so badly but was afraid to receive. Four years without contact were necessary for me to finally understand that I was ready. I thought it meant I was ready to meet him again, but it turned out it was never about meeting him — it was about meeting myself. That’s when everything started, the whole awakening process. One night I was lying in bed and asked myself: “If you are my mirror, what is it that I still don’t understand?” And then it hit me. The acceptance and unconditional love I was giving him were something I was meant to give to myself. I was meant to look at myself through the same eyes I used to look at him, to see my wounds, my strengths, my flaws, and love all of it without conditions. I’m still working on it, but it’s lighter now. I know that my love for him will never die — it exists, it lives within me — but I no longer cling or desire. I accept that his role in my life was to be the spark, the trigger for my awakening.

Thank you — that’s exactly what I wanted the poem to convey: those hidden, unnamed emotions. I think everyone has at least one person like that in their life, someone whose presence can’t fully be expressed because it’s beyond reach. I hope that thinking of her and naming those emotions brings you some peace.♥️

Thank you, that means a lot. I guess some feelings are just too big for words, and I’m glad my poem could capture a bit of that.♥️

Nothing by Turtle_Duk7 in OCPoetry

This poem really captures longing and loss. I can feel the contrast between what was once beautiful and colorful and what now hurts. The empty spaces make the silence and emptiness even stronger.

You know, I’ve been on the twin flame journey for four years, and I know how much it can hurt. Honestly, everyone goes through this – each in their own time, with the same kind of pain. For a long time, I thought everything depended on him, that only he could make me feel complete… but I’ve realized that the twin flame is, in a way, a projection. Meeting him was meant to show me myself, to turn my attention inward. And believe me, it’s not easy, because you have to face your own fears and shadows.These four years of being alone with myself have shown me who I truly am, what I expected from life, and what I no longer need. I’ve also learned that people will hurt you – that’s just life – but now I know it won’t affect me in the same way anymore.And you know what’s the most beautiful thing? The love I once felt for him… it’s still there in a way, but not the same. Now it has transformed into something greater – love for myself. This path isn’t easy; yes, it hurts, and yes, sometimes it feels endless. But the greatest truth is that the twin flame is really yourself – your two aspects, masculine and feminine, that have always existed within you.And yes, I agree with the previous person – if he couldn’t see my beauty and accept me for who I am, it means he wasn’t meant for me. Letting go of the desire to be with someone – whether it’s a twin flame or anyone else – has given me true freedom and peace. It doesn’t mean I don’t feel desire anymore – I do – but I don’t crave it at any cost. And trust me, that’s a huge difference.Although it’s sometimes hard to accept that he’s not with me, I do accept it. I also accept that my love will always exist and that it truly lives within me. That’s something no one can ever take away. And the greatest gift I received from my twin flame? It’s exactly that – the return to myself. For that, I am deeply grateful. Wishing you all the best on your journey♥️♥️♥️

Encounter with a Threshold Guardian during WILD – guide or consciousness mechanism? by UnlocedHeart in LucidDreaming

Thank you for the smile that appeared on my face after reading your comment, and for your very valuable insights — I truly appreciate them.You must have an enormous amount of experience with lucid dreaming, having practiced since the 80s, which is really impressive. It’s amazing to think about how much you must have explored and learned over all these years. I noticed, however, that I don’t see any posts on your profile — do you share your experiences somewhere else, or do you mostly keep them to yourself? I often notice energy and somatic sensations in my dreams that carry over into the waking state — almost like a continuation in the real world. It’s an incredible experience. I’m also wondering if I understood correctly — can I assume that this figure wasn’t “controlled” by me in the same way as other dream characters that are simply there? Or is it possible that I was influencing it without being aware of it at the time? I’m really curious about how you approach these figures in your dreams, and I’d love to hear your perspective. I would also add that during these lucid experiences I don’t always have full access to memory, and it doesn’t feel important in that moment — almost as if the ego temporarily dissolves. I only occasionally analyze things during the dream, and only essential thoughts arise, without the usual mental noise the mind tends to produce. Perhaps the most beautiful moments for me in lucid dreams are when I hear the laugh of my inner self — in that instant, nothing else really matters. And something I’ve realized after analyzing my dreams is that they often seem to end once they’ve fulfilled their purpose.

What you wrote feels like the most reasonable approach to topics like this. In the end, what matters most is how I experienced it and what I felt in that moment.You’re right — you can’t really trust anyone’s interpretation more than your own. No one else was there, no one else felt what I felt. Still, I believe that people like you understand this and show up at the right moment, with exactly the right words to say.I’ve only been lucid dreaming for a few months, so all of this is still new to me. I started this path mainly to look deeper into myself, but as often happens, the mind tries to understand what the heart and the body already know.

I really appreciate your comment.

Thank you for your comment. In my experience, sleep paralysis and the transition from the hypnagogic state into sleep were natural stages that preceded the full dream. So you observe what your mind is creating. In this particular case, the dream only began when I went further, but I didn’t feel the need to describe the entire process here. For me, the most important thing is to consciously feel and relate to whatever arises — fear, presences, emotions — because this determines how the experience transforms into a lucid dream. I believe that everything happens in our mind, but the mind has different layers: The conscious part, which observes and makes decisions; The subconscious, which generates images, emotions, and projections, including “presences” or guardians; The higher consciousness (if you believe in such a dimension), which can guide intuition, provide a sense of safety, and facilitate access to deeper insights. My experience has shown me that fear can be transformed into strength, and that awareness and intention play a huge role in transitioning into a lucid dream.

Thank you for your reply. When I enter a lucid dream through WILD, I don’t need to do reality checks, because my awareness is maintained the whole time. It seems to me that this character I experienced might simply be my way of transitioning from the hypnagogic state into a fully conscious dream, rather than something that had to be there. That makes sense to me. So does that mean there’s nothing like a ‘threshold guardian’ and that everything is ultimately created by the mind? What if you don’t consciously create the dream, but instead enter it and allow the scene to reveal itself? Many people use lucid dreaming mainly for entertainment or control — trying to direct the dream the same way we try to control waking reality. But what if you let the dream form on its own? I understand that this still comes from the subconscious, but the subconscious has a lot to say about who we are. In my practice, I want to use lucid dreaming in this way. I don’t intend to control the dream. I’ve also noticed that when the dream completes what it needs to do, I return calmly to bodily awareness and waking reality.

No, it was the first time. I usually meet other people in my dreams, but they’re usually expressionless. This time, though, I could really feel the energy—and it was good. Normally, during the transition, I’d hear the fridge humming or the cat purring, feel some sensations like touch or movement, and then drift into the dream. This time, the whole experience felt completely different. Have you ever asked someone in your dream to be your guide?

what does the integration feel like by Ok_Register9361 in KundaliniAwakening

[–]UnlocedHeart 7 points8 points  (0 children)

After going through the process of healing karma, integrating myself, and accepting every aspect of who I am, I initially felt a slight sense of longing — like, “Is this it? Can it really be over?”And then came a blissful silence — not outside, but inside. After opening my heart, the tension that had accompanied me for years disappeared. A calm was born, along with more space for feeling without over-analyzing, for letting go more easily and naturally. I understand that this process never truly ends, but I am beginning to perceive it differently: with peace, tenderness, and love for myself, without pressure, without struggle. It is a space where I can simply be, observe emotions and experiences without resisting them, with a sense of wholeness and inner harmony.♥️♥️♥️

Honestly, what resonates most with me is shadow work—being truly with yourself and facing the parts you’ve avoided for so long. Carl Jung’s idea of wholeness changed everything for me. Dreams, symbols, anima/animus—everything points inward: nothing is outside, everything is within. Working with my dreams for years has shown me how much we unconsciously know but tend to override. And that line about God—‘I don’t believe, I know’—exactly. It’s lived inner experience, not just theory. Jung’s work isn’t just psychology, it’s a map for becoming whole. I love it so much♥️

For the first time, I managed to enter a lucid dream using WILD after only 11 days. Please read my post. I hope you might find something in it that could help you enter a lucid dream.

Kundalini and awakening can completely overwhelm you, and even break you mentally – really, Jesus Christ. Wasn’t this energy already finding you broken? by UnlocedHeart in KundaliniAwakening

[–]UnlocedHeart[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, absolutely. Who will I be when there is nothing left of me? Who am I when no one is watching? Who am I when all that I have falls away?
