I just want to put in a word for the biochemical basis of soul-matedness:
a soul-mate will invariably SMELL good to you.
catherine (pheromones "R" us) yronwode
Yes, indeed. The sense of smell bypasses the ego/personality and directly affects the brain and the endocrine system. The partner who smells good is the genetically compatible BODY. This is the most appropriate method of determining who to have babies with. The use of pheromones and perfumes allows people to seduce partners into inappropriate partnering. Thus the ages-old concept of "smelling like a prostitute"... the excessive use of perfume to render the female to smell compatible with ANY male. Because this is all about genetics of the BODY, it has nothing to do with SOUL mating. There is nothing wrong with lots of good fun body mating, unless it is harmful to the soul through incompatible astral/etheric energy merging with the wrong soul. The use of pheromones and/or perfume facilitates the increased probability of such inappropriate mating. Because women in particular tend to bond with whoever they permit themselves to have sex with, there is a strong tendency to stay with inappropriate partners, once sexual mating ocurrs. Therefore, it would be better to use such entrancing aromatherapy to rejuvenate an appropriate soul mating where the sexual relationship is waning, than to use it to attract and choose partners in the first place, who will only be compatible with the perfume, not the woman.

The short answer is:
Someone who is mated with you at the soul level.
The long answer would be required for your next questions...
Hasan Malik wrote: What is a soul? What kinds of mating are there?
The medium length answer is:
If you don't know your own soul essence and have soul level consciousness, then knowing what a soul mate is won't do you much good, because you won't recognize one when you meet them. So, replace your question with: Who am I at the soul level? When you raise your consciousness to that level, you'll know what a soul mate is.
85% of the [mankind] on planet Terra are with the wrong people for the wrong reasons... meaning they're not soul mates but ego mates... and/or karma mates...
If you understand the difference between soul and spirit... which would involve opening up the higher chakras and developing clairvoyance or clairsentience or clairaudience of the etheric/spiritual dimension... then you may begin to be able to distinguish between soul mates (of which there can be a nearly infinite number), and twin flames (the yin yang split of a dual spirit). Some spirits are singular; most, especially those predominantly embodied as [mankind], are created in yin yang pairs... twin flames... But this level is above the oversoul level. Thus a twin flame pair is any one of the souls of the yin-flame oversoul mated with any one of the souls of the yang-flame oversoul. Soul mating could be within the same oversoul, or with any stranger (same or different oversoul) with whom you form a soul level bond.
Soul is the marriage of the spirit with the body... Though there are traditions on this planet which swap the labels spirit and soul. The spirit aspect of a soul will typically have multiple incarnations... i.e. the body aspect is released at "death of the body".
Souls tend to reincarnate in a series of one sex [mankind] body and then they switch and incarnate in a series of opposite sex bodies. 85% of Gay or Lesbian or Trans-Gendered [mankind] are experiencing their first body of the opposite sex after a series of incarnations in one sex body... and haven't yet gotten used to either being in the kind of body they now have, or haven't gotten used to being attracted to the same sex which has now become the opposite sex. Give them a lifetime or a few.
So, what's a soul mate... whoever you're with if you bond at the soul level. Umpteen other people of both sexes who are part of your oversoul group, or of the oversoul group of your twin-flame spirit. Anyone you have karma with from this or previous lifetimes. Anyone you're dharmically compatible with. Anyone vibrating at the same soul vibration level.
Note that when you meet a soul mate you may detest them (ego incompatibility). Note that if you like someone, that may be ego compatibility and not a soul mate at all, though you could build soul mating with them.
Ego mates work from the lower chakras upwards... and may awake to discover they're with someone spiritually inappropriate... which may be incentive to shut-off higher consciousness in order to retain relationship.
Soul mates work from the higher chakras downwards, and initially may have many ego conflicts, but know that they'll only grow more compatible as they each deconstruct ego and raise consciousness to soul level and spirit level.
Now, as for the long answer to your question...
I teach that in my classes...
and it involves raising consciousness through meditation.

When you look at the sky and declare the color of the sunset, and the person next to you looks at the sky and agrees that yes the sunset is red with orange tinges over there, and you say, yep, shure is... where do you get your information?
From direct observation.
Those with open third eyes who see spiritual dimensions directly, simply do the same thing. And after two or three of you look at what's going on with your third eye and agree on what you are seeing, you all say together, yep, shure is...
From direct observation.
Just as you will not be able to convince the physically blind man next to you that you are accurate in your assessment of the color of the sunset, I cannot convince any psychically blind person that what I and other psychics see is "true".
So take it or leave it... I don't play the "prove it" game. I really do not care what you believe, or whether that has any correlation with what I and other psychics see.
I speak with as much certainty about what I see, especially when confirmed by others with open third eyes, as you would about what you observe with your two eyes.
If you want proof, then develop your clairvoyant "seeing". There is no physical world proof which proves what is true in higher dimensions to people blind to higher dimensions... All I can say is that I too used to not be able to see with the third eye, and had the same "prove it" attitude. That is healthy. Thank you for your skepticism. But if you truly desire to see, then set it aside and allow the miracle of psychic sight to enter your life. Or disbelieve in that being possible and preclude that happening in your life. It's your choice. You create your reality. I just choose to live with fewer limits, and have done the work to clear them from my life, including my childhood of atheism where spirit was not only not visible, but didn't even exist.

There is a model I work with in consciousness, which is often manifest as a meditation practice, and as with many such practices, it is based on a focus of attention upon breathing, something we continually do, whether autonomously, or consciously.
Medical science (even) has learned that each and every emotional state has associated with it, a breathing pattern. When triggered into a given emotional state we will unconsciously assume the corresponding breathing pattern. Conversely, we may consciously and intentionally assume a specific breathing pattern, and thereby direct our emotional state of being.
One of the challenges of consciousness is to accept as existing, and to deal with (apparent) paradoxes. Part of the process of dealing with (apparent) paradoxes is to move one's consciousness to a "higher" perspective where one can see from the transcendent position, the lesser "realities", and how, from a lower perspective, there appears to be a paradox, but from the transcendent perspective, it may be seen that the paradox is only apparent when one's perspective is lowered to the "reality" of one polarity of the paradox. I circled. "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." - Albert Einstein
One of the paradoxes we appear to have is that of lower dimensional space-time linearity, versus quantum physics non-locality, which has been proven to interact instantaneously over infinite distance. There is another language for defining the same paradox, and that is that "physical body reality" is anchored in linear space-time, so that the body is always "here now", and yet, our consciousness, sometimes misidentified or perceived in a more limited fashion as either "mind" or "brain", is able to access all of space and time, and this awareness of non-here-now reality, may be known as intuition, and is also known as "spirit" or "spiritual awareness". Thus we see yet another paradox, between different "models of reality", the quantum physics or spiritual models, which although they may appear to be different, are actually describing the same thing, from different perspectives.
Coming full circle now with the context set, back to the breathing practice I started out to share with you, one of the things I teach in my meditation classes is:
Start with your awareness of your lungs being full, and your being present in your body, that you are in your fullness, fully present, fully empowered, you are one with your incarnation, and even with all that is, the entire universe, with which you are at peace and acceptance. "I AM". This is a timeless transcendent position.
Now we enter linear time momentarily, and we exhale, with the conscious intent to forgive and release ALL, letting go 100%, and allowing as we exhale, that entire reality to pass into oblivion, that is, the "I" that I was, now "dies", and ceases to exist, and "I" become one with "the void", nothingness. This is a timeless transcendent position. Hold this temporarily.
Now we enter linear time momentarily, and we inhale, with the conscious intent to accept without judgment or expectation, ALL that is, possibly a completely new reality we've never before experienced, and we allow it to arrive into our consciousness and body, back where we started, but completely reborn, different, new. This is a timeless transcendent position. Hold this temporarily.
Lather, rinse, repeat as necessary. The challenge seems to be to 100% let go of what is, and to 100% accept what arrives. The more we can do this, the greater the size of change we can endure, and the more quickly we can transition through a change.
The only real change, is a change in the real "us", and you may discover that that is infinite eternal consciousness, the witness to all experience, witness to all change, the one who can ask the question: "who am I", or "what is real"?
One of the first things my psychic teacher taught is that for each person, their reality is "real" for them, despite however many paradoxes may seem to apply to that... how can that be? could it be that "relativism" is real? that there is no single objective reality?
I learned that we have a "reality inertia", in our infinite power as the creators of our reality from our beliefs. We look outside and observe "reality", and we form in our mind, a "model of reality", "how it is", "what's real", and then we "believe in" that model, and so doing, we then create it, because belief creates reality, and so things tend to be static. This non-changing non-growing non-healing victimhood says: "I'll believe it when I see it", which means that all change comes from external sources, that one is the passive receptive "victim" of reality, of the creation of reality done by others.
If we step into the role of creator, claim our power, and actively create our reality, then, to do so, we must become master of our beliefs, we must choose what to believe, and by believing it powerfully enough, (paradoxically while outer observable "reality" has not yet caught up with us), then we create the energy patterns around which matter congeals, and the outer reality eventually shifts to match.
E=MC**2 tells us what? that two thing are related by a constant.
What is that constant? LIGHT, that mercurial thing which is
so Gemini that sometimes it appears as a particle (matter) and
sometimes it appears as a wave (energy), which is what,
exactly what the equation tells us, that paradoxically,
matter is just a standing wave pattern.
Say what?
well, light has color / frequency, so each different kind of
"matter" must have a corresponding "frequency", because they're
related by a constant. So, if we compare Hydrogen versus Helium,
we're just looking at a different color / frequency of light.
Everything is frequency. All that is (matter),
and all that matters (real), is just frequency of light, and
the paradoxical "reality" of reality is observing,
interacting with, and even controlling, that paradoxical
duality between particle and wave. We know that particles
can be quantumly entangled to have direct interaction
instantly over infinite distance, therefore, we also know
that waves must likewise entangle.
What is spiritual intuition? perception of waves, which are quantum entangled. What is it to be intuitive or "psychic"? it is to master the skill of intentionally creating quantum entanglement between one's brain waves (consciousness), and some remote (non-local) "other" energy "pattern", or "wave", or "particle", i.e. frequency of light. Just as we may tune a radio to a given frequency, our consciousness may be directed to tune into a given frequency of light corresponding to, oh, say, for example, the aggregate frequencies of the "matter" particles known also as the DNA of one Rache Ritmanitch. Through our emotions we can reprogram our DNA. It's like an orchestra, all tuned together to play a symphony... if each player tunes their instrument up a little bit, the whole orchestra can still play in harmony, and the one oddball who hasn't adjusted their instrument's tuning hears themself to be out of tune, and in order to achieve harmony, yields to the group pressure, and also adjusts back to harmony, shared frequency.
I can commit to you that I will be honest, and open. You may not always like the truth I tell you, but it is real, at least for me, in my reality, for the moment.
I have overriding commitments to truth, honesty, integrity, and harmlessness... which I define as respecting the right of each and every entity to be conscious, to consciously make their own choices which control their own destiny, and to not have that consciousness, choice process, or their power to manifest their own choices over their own reality, interfered with.
I believe that fundamental character / essence / nature is the ultimate factor in compatibility between entities.
