INTRODUCTION
Snow White and Prince Charming. Romeo and Juliet. Beauty and the Beast. Harry and Sally. These are all names that come to mind when one thinks of the term soul mate. The ancient belief can be found in cultures the world over. But what does the term soul mate actually mean?
In the dictionary, "soul mate" means one of two persons compatible with each other in disposition, point of view or sensitivity; someone for whom you have a deep affinity. This explains the basic qualities, but we all know the soul mate theory goes much deeper than that.
According to Celtic wisdom, our souls begin their journey together as one being that becomes broken apart. Two souls emerge and move on into their life journeys. Perhaps we find our twin soul in this life. Maybe we find it in another life. Throughout time, we seek to rejoin our Anam Cara, the Celtic word for "Soul Friend," our soul mate who was created as our perfect match.
In order for our soul mate to appear, we must be ready for them. You will not meet your soul mate if you are still coming from a place of fear or jealousy in relationships. You couldn't run before you could walk, and you won't meet your soul mate before you are ready to learn what she/he has to teach you. In order to find our soul mate, we must be emotionally secure and know what we want from life.
Excerpt
I adore romance--the kind that swathes my body in goose bumps, hurls a roller-coaster sensation into my gut and makes you pine away for long stem roses, rich chocolates, romantic music, candlelight dinners and passionate embraces. I have devoured romance novels and tearfully watched romantic movies that squeezed my heart for years. We yearn for one extraordinary moment in our otherwise boring life to be cast beneath a spellbinding blue moon. There, bathed under vast starlight, cuddled in our lover’s warm embrace, we lose ourselves in hungry eyes and quixotic dedications. Face it. We’re romance addicts.

I am thrilled with this book. It presents so many wondrous stories..so many exceptional connections..so much wisdom and such a profound perception of that which we call soulmate and Twin soul reunions. This will answer many of your questions and will prompt you to ponder on the answers. It will also gift you with inner knowing as regards your OWN reconnection or reunion. I recommend this book to all that are aware of the yearning for their Twin soul or soulmate. Read it, then relax and await your own story. Blessings to the author and readers.
