The Story of Sapphire and Arion: Arion Marries Layla

When Sapphire got news that Arion was to marry another woman, her wounds multiplied.  Sapphire knew in the depth of her understanding Arion had to walk his own path and she could not fulfill his earthly needs.
Sapphire remembered the first time Arion had come to her in a dream.  Sapphire pulled away from Arion's image.  She loved another man.  Her heart was conflicted.
The man Sapphire had met was well known to Arion.  He was a friend, a brother.  They knew each other since childhood.  Sapphire's lover mirrored back Arion's presence.  This gave her comfort and peace.  Her lover would be a constant reminder of Arion.  In her closeness to him, Sapphire felt Arion's companionship.
The woman, Layla, Arion married was well suited for him.  The first time Sapphire met Layla, she could see all the qualities that Arion loved in her.  Layla nurtured his spirit with warmth, compassion, and tolerance.  Sapphire felt how Layla loved Arion deeply.
Sapphire came to remember Layla from a past life.  Layla was more than just Arion's wife, she had a bond with this woman and a karmic debt to pay back.
Layla needed to forgive Sapphire for the past misdeeds.  Their lives now intertwined had come full circle.
Both women yearned for Arion's affection.  Sapphire could see a bigger picture emerging that connected all four of them.  She wondered if she was alone in this thought. Sapphire carried the burden of knowing pieces of a past that tied them all together.  She recognized in them her soul group.
