I heard about this as well. I think maybe this is what is mistaken as subconscious. I think it's the "dogs in a trench" coat situation. But there is actually some amount of deep communication. Maybe even just hormonal/ emotional.
Sometimes in life I'll get a feeling that's origin is not immediately apparent to me. After some focus I can trace its origins to the intersection of two competing desires or something. That I understand. But other times.... Even with long sessions of meditation, it feels like the explanation for some feelings do not reside within my own consciousness.
I've begun to try and listen for other consciousness and understand them. I've gotten a sort of impression of a personality and when we're both happy, I feel a sort of harmony. When they're upset I feel a pull towards chaos. Doing something can be as simple as getting a drink they like or as complex as avoiding a certain social situation.
Or it's all in my imagination, lol. If so I'll enjoy the placebo.
