I really love this picture because they both look kinda like me, and I've been trying to think of my Higher Self in a more gentle, loving and feminine light instead of feeling like it is an energy always out to kick the shit, literally, out of me.
I know my Higher Self only has my best interests in mind, and it/she/us loves me totally and with no conditions. I also know I've been through all the trails in my youth to teach me empathy and compassion, and I chose those challenges.
AND- my Higher Self thinks enough of me to have chosen this Twin Soul experience for me. HS must feel I am worthy, strong and diligent enough to get the mission/quest completed- and I am.
I really like this article about Higher Self that I found. One very important thing to note, though, is where it states that Higher Self is bound to the laws of Free Will and Karma.
"The Higher-Self ‘oversoul’ must nonetheless always observe the fundamental Laws
of Karma which require that we all fully experience the cause-effect relationship between
each of our actions and its results. Thus the Higher Self will always respect the
self-determination or free will of each of the separately individualized lower
soul-extensions. The High Self will only help when directly asked for assistance, and will
never interfere to alleviate those hard lessons that each soul must learn for itself."
This means HS can educate us on energy and how our thoughts, energy, intentions and belief create our world but if we do not listen then we do have to suffer the consequences of what our fears create.
Why do you think they RUN? Do you really think it is because all these male/Yang energies are such pussies that they can't handle strong love? Do we really think they bolt so quickly from fear? NO. I do not believe this. I feel that whoever leaves the picture, and it can be the woman at times, is because the other MANIFESTED that action out of some type of fearful belief or doubt. Not many of us who are awakening right can are ready to handle that truth though. They are more comfortable blaming the other, blaming free will. Well, I am not one of those people.
Here is the link to the article and it's pasted here in its entirety, no part of it is mine. It's a good read to know more about Higher Self's role in life and in the twin soul union.

We begin our long evolutionary
journey as evolving ‘Sparks of Spirit’, created out of and as a part of our
Creator's own Being, particles of His own Spirit and Thought Force. Each newly created
Spark of Spirit near the Godhead in time becomes the "Parent" of an extension
soul of themselves, and thus the originator of an extended "family" of closely
inter-related soul units. This "family" relationship with its original
"Higher-Self" soul allows for a close inter-connection between the higher planes
and the lower planes of existence. There is also a continuous sharing of experience, not
only from lower levels up to the highest, but also from the higher level down to the
lowest. The higher level intuitive advice passed down to the physical level helps prevent
individual souls from becoming enmeshed in any one particular area of evolution and thus
losing an overall sense of direction. The "Higher Self" continually tries to
keep its 'family members' on the correct path of evolution.
And so we have the establishment of an elevated group of ‘Oversouls’, also known
to us as our ‘Higher Self" or the ‘I Am Presence’. Each of these
Higher-Selves is then allowed to create or birth a further group of 12 ‘Prime
Soul-Extensions’ so as to extend the experience life on worlds nearest to the
Spiritual Light Plane. Then these 12 Prime Soul-Extensions are themselves each allowed to
create a further group of twelve souls, or ‘lower soul-extensions’, for
experience on yet denser worlds. Thus there can finally arise a total 'Family Soul Group'
of up to 144 closely related ‘Soul Mates’, all linked to the same "Higher
Self".
This Soul Group of 144 will not all be incarnating together at the same time, or on a
particular vibration-level or dimension, but instead may be manifested throughout a Galaxy
on many other dimensional levels or planets. However, all the individual members of these
groups, under their collective ‘Higher-Self’, will remain linked throughout
their long evolutionary journeys as a group of related Soul-Mates, often incarnating in a
particular world with one another as life-partners or friends, or as members of an
extended family.
The Higher-Self ‘oversoul’ must nonetheless always observe the fundamental Laws
of Karma which require that we all fully experience the cause-effect relationship between
each of our actions and its results. Thus the Higher Self will always respect the
self-determination or free will of each of the separately individualized lower
soul-extensions. The High Self will only help when directly asked for assistance, and will
never interfere to alleviate those hard lessons that each soul must learn for itself.
As the soul-extensions then descend into the lower worlds of materiality (e.g Planet
Earth), they further develop their inherent split into the two major polarities of
positive and negative; each expressing more and more forcibly the male (positive, outgoing
active force) or the female (negative, returning/in-going, nurturing force) polarity. This
is part of the Creator’s Plan; to provide the soul with a deeper balance between the
two major polarities of Creation, and provide a strong impetus for each soul to return to
the Unity of the Godhead. Thus, two ‘Twin Souls’ or ‘Twin Flames’, are
created as part of one spirit at the highest level, and remain forever as eternally joined
parts of one soul-extension. After descending and ascending through the Cycle of Evolution
together, they are eventually destined to re-unite at the end of their long evolutionary
journey, as one complete and androgynous Being (that is to say, united male/female), and
yet they shall forever also be two souls-in-one and even retain an element of their two
polarities as well as their individualities.
Each individual Twin-Soul, endowed during its descent into matter with a predominantly
male or female polarity, thus acts as a balancing force to the other; one featuring an
inherently forceful male/active/positive/outgoing characteristic, the other with a more
receptive/nurturing/spiritualized/in-going female characteristic. This inherent division
into two opposite, but magnetically attractive polarities, not only provides the necessary
impetus towards a later re-unification of these two souls, but also promotes a desire
within all individualized souls to seek unity with all other souls, and thus their
eventual return to the collective Unity of the Godhead. As their evolution progresses, the
Twin-Souls gradually learn to develop a greater balance between their two polarities or
genders.
A confusion of sexual identity
Sometimes a Twin-Soul will switch gender for one particular incarnation in a physical
world in order to learn from the inherent qualities of the other gender polarity. This
explains the varying difficulties of sexual identity which many people experience down
here on Earth, after they have in fact chosen on the spiritual planes to incarnate into an
Earth body of an opposite and ‘unaccustomed’ gender. For instance, a soul of
predominately female characteristics, when incarnating into a male body, will by nature be
more attracted to the opposite sex, that is, another male. Likewise, a predominately male
soul incarnating as a female, will most likely be seeking the close intimacy of the
opposite polarity of attraction, another female. The sex-changes that many people have
felt a strong urge to make through an operation, exhibit a more extreme example of this
unaccustomed position of opposite gender.
Thus the Twin-Souls learn to balance the positive (male), out-going/forceful, with the
negative (female), receptive/nurturing quality of their polarities. The masculine positive
energy is thrusting and active. The feminine negative energy is receiving and acceptive.
Both are equally necessary to achieve life. One cannot operate without the other. They
will then eventually be in a position to become totally re-united as balanced parts of a
united androgynous (male/female) soul, although they will each, as part of a greater
united being, still retain a certain individually and an element of their original
polarity.
When one Twin-Soul incarnates on a lower physical-level planet such as Earth, the other
usually remains behind on a higher plane in order to provide a nearby spiritual connection
with the higher world. There are occasions, however, when Twin-Souls do arrange to meet
and share together an incarnation at the physical level, such as whilst undertaking an
important joint mission on Earth. At such times, unless they have chosen to be born as
close relatives or twins in the same household, the time and place of their first meeting
on the dense physical level is always pre-viewed and pre-arranged on the Spiritual Plane.
And so when they first meet on Earth, they often experience a feeling of instant and deep
‘love at first sight’, intuitively remembering their old love connection as well
as recognizing their meeting place pre-arranged on the spiritual level. Such a
‘coming together’ forever touches a fundamental note of human longing amongst
all of us, and is frequently featured in many of the romantic love stories of the earth
plane.
Even when we may not be destined to meet our Twin Soul or Twin Flame down here on Earth,
it is possible that we may instead experience a very close association with one of our own
Soul-Mates, a member of our larger Soul Group. We may also quite likely have been closely
associated with that particular Soul-Mate in a past incarnation, either as a former family
member or as a close friend during a previous Earth experience.
The Higher Self
During the long evolutionary cycle, when souls descend into the lower worlds of 'matter'
and then rise up again, the Higher-Self remains on the highest spiritual level, constantly
accumulating and recording all the evolutionary experiences gained by those evolving
soul-extensions on lower levels. This accumulated knowledge is then accessible back to
them via the Higher-Self as an inner voice of conscience, always there to assist them in
taking the correct course appropriate for their further development.
We can, therefore, with intent and suitable training, obtain access to all this
accumulated spiritual knowledge via our Higher-Self, simply by turning our thoughts
inwards in quiet contemplation and seeking a connection with our ‘I Am
Presence’.
This store of evolutionary knowledge and abilities accumulated by the Higher Self also
provides each of the lower incarnated souls with a background of traits, talents and
abilities acquired during previous lives. This continuity of development and attainment
explains why some people are born on Earth with unusually exceptional natural talents,
such as in the field of healing or science, or perhaps as a scientific genius or musical
child-prodigy.
The end of deception
As you advance further into the higher vibrations you will develop open communication with
your own higher selves. At first this will appear as an increased connection to source.
Everyone will develop more open communication culminating with a full connection to your
own Higher Selves. In time you will be able to tap into the thoughts of each other through
each other's higher selves. After a period of humorous adjustment, you will find this to
be a great strength. When each one can see clearly the real motivations behind actions,
there will be true understanding and compassion. This will leave no room for deception.
Also misdirections of energy such as war will no longer be possible. The energy you are
now walking into will bring possibilities you can not yet imagine. You are at the juncture
of bringing the reality of "Home" down to your side of the veil.
Guides
To further guide and watch over us during our incarnations here on Earth, each of us has
various Guides and Guardian Angels working from the Spiritual Worlds. At birth, our
Guardian Angels keep a particularly close watch over us when we first incarnate into the
physical body, especially up to the age of seven. Young children, whose etheric sight is
usually still functioning, are indeed often able to see their Guardian Angels as they
stand over them, protecting and guiding them.
A Guide may also be gaining some useful additional evolutionary learning experiences by
watching our life and learning from our lessons.
However, whilst our Guardian Angels and our Guides are ready to advise and assist us at
all times, there are two fundamental qualifications to this help. Firstly:
they will not normally interfere unless we ask directly for their help; they must always
respect our free choice and thus not deprive us of the important lessons we have to learn
ourselves.
Secondly: we should not assume that ‘whatever we ask will
be given’, for we must remember that Higher Beings have a higher, wider vision, and
they will not help us to do something which is not for our ‘highest good’. It
could be so easy for us to feel, when our fervent prayers for help do not appear to be
answered, that we have been 'let down'. But we should understand that the links between us
and our Guides were formed and exist on the higher Soul level. At this level they know,
and indeed we too recognize when we are visiting the higher planes in our sleep-time, what
is best for our ‘highest good’.
Ascended Masters
Apart from the personal help and advice we may receive as individuals, wisdom and guidance
is also made available in its wider context to the Earth world by other Higher Beings,
known as 'Ascended Masters'.
A Master may give his counsel unseen, perhaps guiding the voice or the hand of a prophet;
or a Master may incarnate on Earth, giving through his life an example to mankind. A
Master incarnate on Earth may even be "overshadowed" by a yet greater Master
who, with his "junior's" consent, acts and speaks through him. The Master
Jesus-Sananda was himself overshadowed in this way during the last years of his ministry
by The Christ, the highest embodiment of the Creator. Thus "Jesus Christ" should
not be thought of or referred to as one single "person", but rather as the
Master Jesus-Sananda, for a time overshadowed by The Christ.
Masters, such as are part of Earth’s Spiritual Hierarchy, are highly evolved Beings
with a fully developed degree of wisdom and consciousness. They fulfil Universal Service.
They are not usually linked to any one individual soul on the Earth as are your Guides.
They serve a far greater cause, and when they come to this Earth they come, not so much
for the individual, but for Humanity as a whole. They often speak through trained and
inspired channels to give messages to Humanity. When they do incarnate on the Earth, they
come in order to serve Humanity and to bring wisdom and knowledge to the Earth as a whole.
They are not so much concerned with the individual as with the Greater Plan. It is through
the Masters that Knowledge for this Earth is thus revealed and given to Mankind, and that
the Divine Plan for this Earth is revealed and carried out. [Note - Most of the
material on this website is channelled information].
There is indeed a wealth of advice and assistance available to those who seek it in peace
of mind and humility of spirit. Spiritual knowledge teaches that through a process of
bodily lightening, detachment from ego-centeredness, and a developing awareness of the
Universal Unity, we can open to worlds beyond our present limited perception of
‘reality’ and learn to receive the ‘Higher Knowledge’, the wisdom of
our Guides and the Ascended Masters. And it may be said without exaggeration that we need
all the advice and assistance we can get, for the incarnations we experience here on Earth
at the physical level are the most difficult and testing in all of our evolutionary
journey.
Twin Souls
When one of the soul fragments is of the male energy, and the other fragment is of the
female energy, and both vibrate at the same frequency, then that specific pair would be
twin souls or twin flames.
As an individual achieves a certain level of development, it becomes possible that a
counterpart (twin) be brought into its life experience on this plane. Recognition would
take place on a spirit and soul level. On a material level it would be subconscious
contact with much love and understanding between the persons involved.
Parts of the same soul will join together one day after they have worked out all their
karma. Countless lifetimes are necessary for this, and much depends upon the swiftness of
spiritual evolution within each part of the soul before it can be unified. At any one
time, there might be twelve extensions (fragments) of your soul all experiencing living
and learning. Ultimately these forms of your soul are brought together in total unity and
balance.
