Does your twin flame come into your life only as a catalyst?
The purpose of a catalyst is to activate your path towards spiritual awakening and sometimes to start your kundalini awakening. They will usually bond with you in an intense, heart-centered way, and may be mistaken for your twin initially, but they will not usually be in your life, romantically for a long time. They come in, do the job, and leave! They may also catalyze any other person on their spiritual path.
Your twin flame is also a catalyst because they are your biggest activator of all. Many, probably most, twin flames are catalyzed by their own twin flame and not a separate catalyst.
There is not a distinct category of twin flame called catalyst twin flame. Either they’re your twin or a catalyst.
So at what point, after a relationship is over and obviously won’t be rekindled, do you start to accept that your “twin flame” was actually a catalyst?
Twin Flames is a spiritual connection. It is eternal and will never be over. Even when your conventional relationship is over, the connection still exists, hence you are still on the twin flame journey.
Maybe you think it obviously won’t be rekindled. This is your assumption. Genuine twin flames do and will cross paths again and again at the important junctures of their soul path and progress. They can come into your life again at the most unexpected time, at the most unexpected place when you least expect them and are not looking for them! This is the twin flame journey!!
You may spend quite a few years wondering if this was a real twin flame connection or not until the Divine provides you solid signs that validate the connection. This is a process and it may take time. There is no point in concluding right away. Whether this person was a catalyst or not, only one phenomenon can tell you for sure, that is meeting your twin flame! The moment they arrive, the catalyst won’t carry the twin flame energy and it will be clear who is your twin flame.
Right now, you can’t accept or conclude anything, simply because it is not the right time for you to do that. There is no need to put that label right now. Give yourself some time, progress more in your journey, and things will automatically get clear!
