ameliejolie,
i just saw the thread on twin flames and was thinking about posting to it when i saw your reply.

it does seem like the same thing to me...perhaps. (it might be that the posts in this thread should be merged into the twin flames thread --- i wasn't aware of it when i started this one, and didn't know the terminology of twin flames to search for it.)

in the twin flames discussion there is a comment that twin flames rarely incarnate together, while in my dream the two entities intentionally incarnate and function together.

most all of my dreams have a very intense component to them...which serves as a guidepost for me in interpreting them, but this dream was one of the most intensely powerful dreams i have ever had, and the focus of intensity was the relationship of the twin entities. this relationship is one in which the two entities are extremely powerful and insightful because of their integrated consciousness, and yet they are still distinct entities. it was interesting to me that in the first incarnation in the dream they did not have human biological forms but rather were highly conscious rectangles about 5 x 8 inches by 1/2 inch thick (they resembled plastic kitchen cutting boards.) the masculine one was black, the feminine one was white. they interacted with each other in pure thought for the benefit of life itself.

the one thing i wonder about in this is how it relates to me. i am in an extremely compatible, happy, and wonderful marriage, but i have never experienced any relationship with another person remotely like the relationship of the two entities in this dream. in that sense, it does seem to be pointing inward, to the integration of animus and anima.

and as i think about it, revelations relating to animus and anima are almost always the most powerful and profound for me, whether they come in dream or in waking insight. so i don't know if this is animus/anima, or twin flames, or if there is some integration of the two that is not yet clear to me.
