In 385 BCE, Plato's Symposium was written, introducing the concept of soul mates. In this dialogue, Plato presents the idea that humans were initially a complete being with four arms, four legs, and a single head with two faces. These creatures were so powerful and threatening to the gods that Zeus decided to split them in half, creating beings that were forever searching for their other half, their soul mate.
During the 13th century, Sufi poets in Persia and Arabia explored the concept of soul mates in their writings. These poets expressed the idea of a deep spiritual connection between individuals, where souls are destined to find each other and experience a profound love that transcends earthly boundaries.
The term 'soul mate' itself emerged in the English language in 1840. Reverend Samuel Taylor Coleridge popularized the term in his literary work, 'The Friend,' where he described soul mates as two individuals who have an innate understanding and connection on a soul level.
In 1903, Swiss psychologist Carl Jung introduced the concept of 'anima' and 'animus,' further shaping the understanding of soul mates. Jung believed that each individual possesses elements of both masculinity and femininity within their psyche. According to his theory, when a person finds their soul mate, they experience a sense of wholeness and integration, as their anima or animus complements and balances their own.
During the 1990s, there was a surge in popular culture references to soul mates, particularly in films and television shows. This led to the term becoming more widely known and sought after, with people desiring to find their own soul mate. The concept of soul mates became increasingly romanticized and emphasized the idea of a perfect match destined by fate or destiny.
