Twin Flames Are Bullshit!

Why the entire concept of a twin flame needs to die in a fire.

The spiritual, psychic, and tarot communities have been overrun with the idea of a twin flame. As someone who is spiritual, psychic, and reads tarot, I think this concept does more harm than good.

I have yet to see someone benefit emotionally and spiritually from this concept and feel the entire idea of a twin flame needs to be deleted from our psyche immediately because all it does is promote reliance on others for happiness and purpose when you need to be finding happiness and a sense of fulfillment from within.

Twin flames also promote toxic relationships and obsessive behavior. I used to read tarot professionally. Most of the questions I was asked related to love.

4 out of 5 people asking about their love interest referred to that person as a “twin flame” even if that person was toxic, emotionally abusive, or just had no interest in them at all.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with the term, twin flames are said to be someone’s spiritual other half who mirrors your soul and different aspects of your personality and psyche.

Because they’re a mirror, that is used as an excuse for someone constantly fighting with their twin flames and having a toxic relationship…
