soulmates, literally.


Aristophanes in Plato's Symposium is that humans originally consisted of four arms, four legs, and a single head made of two faces, but Zeus feared their power and split them all in half, condemning them to spend their lives searching for the other half to complete them.

"Bada-Bing! Bada-Boom!" Thus the Creation of Soulmates!

Some argue that souls are literally made and/or fated to be the mates of each other, or to play certain other important roles in each other's lives.

According to Theosophy, God created androgynous souls, equally male and female. Later theories postulate that the souls split into separate genders, perhaps because they incurred karma while playing around on the Earth, or "separation from God". Over a number of reincarnations, each half seeks the other. When all karmic debt is purged, the two will fuse back together and return to the ultimate.


Wellll although I believe something different, mythology interests me. And i dont think thats a crime... NOT believing soulmates at all would be a crime in my opinion.


Stop being so cynical. There IS such thing as soul mates... I'll fight that fact til the end.
