Do Married Couples Reunite in the Astral??

[Fresco]

Say if a married man dies today and his wife dies a year later, is it normal for them to hook up again in the astral world??  Abd if so is it a regular occurrence??  And what if some guy had multiple wives or divorced a few of them, how would that work??

[Killa Rican]

The way i see it is it's for the individuals for themselves to decide. If there love is so strong that it moves on unto the afterlife, then so be it. Some can potentially last forever.

As For a spouse dieing and then remarrying later at some point in life that's a tough one, and i have thought about it.

I'd like to think it's a common occurrence.
Monroe experienced it several times apparently retrieving people who then moved towards the signal of their dead spouse.

Wishful thinking... who knows really.

That would be really cool if true.  

The biggest fear most couples have is of course death and that their relationship will some day come to an end.  But it makes sense for it to continue in astral, too bad most people dont believe in afterlife cause it would definitely make their marriage stronger here in the physical

Well, think about most wedding ceremonies.

"...till death do us part."

It would seem that the act of dying removes one from all marriage obligations.  And the REAL strange part is that I THINK most religious ceremonies have this line in there and these same religions generally have some form of afterlife.  So, what exactly does that say for that religion and how "dear" they hold the act of marriage?

Jesus touches on the subject in Matthew 22: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2022&version=NLT

23 That same day Jesus was approached by some Sadducees—religious leaders who say there is no resurrection from the dead. They posed this question: 24 "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies without children, his brother should marry the widow and have a child who will carry on the brother's name.' 25 Well, suppose there were seven brothers. The oldest one married and then died without children, so his brother married the widow. 26 But the second brother also died, and the third brother married her. This continued with all seven of them. 27 Last of all, the woman also died. 28 So tell us, whose wife will she be in the resurrection? For all seven were married to her."

29 Jesus replied, "Your mistake is that you don't know the Scriptures, and you don't know the power of God. 30 For when the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. In this respect they will be like the angels in heaven"

But I gotta be honest and say I dont understand what he means by this exactly.  If we become like the angels surely your wife on earth will also become an angel, in which case you'd still recognize her in astral.  And if you recognize each other you would obviously still feel some need to be together (assuming you were really in love with your spouse)

Love and Obligation are not the same.

Another thing I'm trying to figure out if there is such a thing as a 'soulmate'.  IOW is there only one girl for every guy out there.  And if so maybe thats what accounts for such high divorce rates. If you're not married to your soulmate the marriage simply wont work, no matter how hard you try

[Killa Rican]

Depends how you define "Soul Mate". Soul Mate in some New Age Philosophy means nothing more then being part of the same soul group. Since humanity has different soul groups they originally come from. If 2 soulmates are from the same soul group then this soul mate can be there Best Friend, Platonic, There dog, There Co Worker, There sister, ect. It doesnt always need to be romantic.

I think what your thinking here is "Twin Flame" Or "twin Soul". Everyone is going to have a different opinion on "Eternal Love" And the whole "Soul Mate" thing. But personally for me. If both individuals believe in soul mates and feel each other as soul mates. Then "soul Mates" exist. For people who dont like the concept of eternal love, And dont believe in "Soul MAtes" then soul mates wont exist for them. IT's simple.

[Fresco]

Ahright, let me rephrase then.  Is there a God appointed soulmate for each person??  IOW has God planned a partner for each person ahead of time (before you were even born) and is that the person you're supposed to be with??

[Killa Rican]

Well like i said there is the concept of the "Twin Soul". Him/her is basically the Other half of your soul. A person can have many soul mates but they can only have ONE Twin Soul. Life after life. You can reunite with this twin soul in the physical, or it can also possibly be an entity residing in the astral. A twin soul CAN be your "Soul Mate" in the romantic sense but he/she doesnt necessarily have to be. It just means you'll always end up drawn to each other like kindred spirits, whatever the connection may be. So if you subscribe to this belief then yes from the very beginning we are all appointed to another.

So kinda like this guy says then: http://www.kktanhp.com/twin_souls.htm

One can and do have many soul mates but one has only one twin soul

[AlanRK]

Amidst all the theorizing, have you considered going to the astral and asking someone about this? Most people engage in romance and relationships so pretty much any spirit would do.

I only OBE'd twice so far and they were both only a few feet above my body. 
I have yet to enter the astral world, thats after many months of trying

[AlanRK]

Key word here being "yet".

[NickisDank]

I mean, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to find them. I just don't know what it would be like? You'd have to have your memories still. And what about family members? Let alone all blood relatives

So that then begs the question, how do you know if your present GF or wife is your soulmate or your twinsoul??

[Killa Rican]

I would personally imagine it as 2 people drawn to each other like kindred spirits. Just a state of knowing.

They could have multiple past life connections or there energys mesh perfectly well with each other. Sometimes people would need a 3rd party such as a psychic/medium for confirmation on such issues.

What about unmarried couples, don't discriminate against the unmarried.

I have no doubt the same remains true for all, regardless of status.
