Spiritually Bonding with Your Platonic Soulmate
No doubt you’ve heard the term “soulmate” once or twice, but did you know that we also have platonic soulmates? Soulmates aren’t necessarily romantic in nature—this term applies to anyone who shares a soul-level connection with you, as if you’ve walked beside each other in previous lifetimes. That’s because you probably have!
These are non-romantic relationships that have been written into our destiny long before we were born. They arrive in our lives like a gift sent from the universe, in the form of a friend, family member, or even a beloved pet. You’re kindred spirits through and through.
While a bond with a platonic soulmate is special, every relationship needs extra care now and then. You both have so much to offer one another, and intentional spiritual bonding will bring you closer so that your relationship can keep on blossoming.
The Value of a Platonic Soulmate
We often think of soulmates as our romantic equals with whom we’ll engage in a passionate love affair. In reality, soulmates transcend human limitations like attraction and are instead based in the heart, where you recognize yours with a familiarity you can’t quite explain. It’s not always amorous; the platonic element widens your horizons as soulmates.
We could have multiple soulmates in this current iteration of our soul, or there might be only one truly transcendent bond with another being that eclipses everything else. It’s a powerful partnership that brings two individuals together for a reason.
A platonic soulmate is especially important. Since it’s a simple companion or friendship, the complications that come with intimacy won’t interfere. It gives you both the chance to focus on being a positive presence in the other’s life. Our soulmates enable us to live authentically and revel in a pure, deep connection that’s as natural to us as our own reflection. You’re twin flames, acting like lighthouses in the storm.
With platonic soulmates, there’s also an alignment of similar energy that grounds you as one. You anticipate their feelings as they do yours, and you feel comforted by their presence. In effect, you’re mirrors that show each other how far you’ve come and how far you have left to go, challenging you both to journey forward accordingly. The unconditional love that comes with it is more than a bonus—it’s a promise that you’ll continue to choose them and they’ll continue to choose you, in this lifetime and the next.
Above all, you want to be sure to honor your universal inheritance. This is a bond rooted in synchronicities and psychic sensations, reifying your purpose as a pair. So, how on earth do you foster this exceptional relationship so that it lasts forever?
Spiritual bonding creates a resonance between you that feels simultaneously ancient and brand-new. Certain activities and rituals enhance this already inspiring alliance. It’s a life-changing and intuitively driven experience that deserves to be celebrated!
The Practice of Spiritual Bonding
As mentioned before, intention is everything. If you and your platonic soulmate seek to deepen your bond further, there are concrete actions you can take in the physical plane that translate into the metaphysical plane, everyday habits worth establishing.
Your time together is precious, and actively practicing spiritual bonding will make the most of that time while strengthening your connection. Try exploring these spiritual bonding exercises with your platonic soulmate.
Tarot Readings
A lot of intuitive personalities are adept at reading the tarot, which functions as a temperature check on your life—and your bond! Read each other’s cards and reveal what you cannot see: a hidden wound, or an opportunity for joy.
Trust their ability to interpret your fate, and they’ll do the same in order to hold a clean and balanced space for messages from your guides to come through. It’s a uniquely spiritual and intuitive practice to follow.
Moon Rituals
Another rewarding spiritual bonding habit you could commit to is a moon ritual each month. On the night of a new moon, you set your intentions for the next 30 days, and on the full moon, you release what no longer serves you, personally and socially.
You can support their goals (and vice versa) by writing down and reading your intentions aloud as you welcome a fresh cycle, then burn the papers holding the psychic dead weight at the end of that cycle. Manifest your dreams in sync and watch the universe respond in turn.
Partner Meditation
This is a particularly beneficial practice for platonic soulmates who live far apart, since you can meditate together over Zoom or simply agree to dedicate time to it at the exact same moment in your day. Meditation invites us to regulate our nervous system, and doing it with your soul’s favorite loved one is even better for our bodies and our spirits.
Breathwork is also a common bonding ritual for soulmates. There are many kinds of meditation, depending on what you want to get out of it, so choose your meditation type with that in mind.
Write to Each Other
Journaling in a notebook that you send back and forth (or even an email thread or Google Doc) connects you to your platonic soulmate on an emotional level. Here, you’re free to share your innermost fears, hopes, and the memories that bind you, reflecting on your relationship in a tangible record of love, growth, and nostalgia for the past. In a way, this is the most heart-to-heart communication there can be! Tap into your creative energy with this journal.
Regular Meaningful Chats
Finally, just carving out visits and conversations that build up your bond on a daily basis is so vital for platonic soulmates. When it comes to the longevity of this earthside fellowship, even the seemingly minor practices contribute to your bond. And you can absolutely apply your intuition here! If you have the sudden urge to contact them, do it—that’s a sign from a higher power telling you to reach out. Check in with one another to remind yourselves of this inimitable connection you have the privilege of experiencing together.
Tend to Your Bond Intuitively
Spiritually bonding with your platonic soulmate involves consistent effort, much like the effort required when developing your intuitive skills! A soulmate, platonic or otherwise, is a catalyst for change that brings out the best in us from within. This is a highly empathic parallelism that’ll make you a better person in the process.
