Universal Landscape: An inevitable expansion of your total Self.
Dreaming Lens: Did you meet your soul mate in your dream? Were you pursuing your soul mate? Did you know your soul mate? Did your soul mate know you? Was he or she elusive, or responsive? Was there anything in the way of you connecting with your soul mate?
Personal Focus: The idea of soul mating is a complicated one due to the attachment of expectation to the concept. Most of us want our soul mates to be in the form of lovers with whom we live happily ever after; however, a soul mate is simply another individual with whom we share an energetic synchronicity and a powerful recognition. A soul mating can occur across any matrix of relationship: lovers, partners, friends, siblings, and so on. The kernel of the meaning to soul mating is in its feeling that it was destined that you meet.
If the soul mate in your dream is someone you know, the interpretation should connect to the Character Aspects you associate with them. If they are not known to you, use the Dreaming Lens to round out your investigation. Whoever they are, the qualities being presented are to be integrated into your Self as part of your journey toward integration.
Searching for your soul mate indicates that wholeness and/or the blocks to wholeness have not yet been identified. A successful connection with your soul mate may mean that integration is at hand. If there are challenges to connecting with them in your dream, those challenges represent the obstacles to wholeness in your current life. The dream may be telling you it’s time to face them and that no matter how frightening the challenge, you may as well surrender to the task at hand. After all, just like meeting your soul mate out in the world, it is meant to be.
