Ever wonder why you cannot get someone out of your head? Do you feel an inexplicable pull towards someone? You could have a cord attachment
What are energetic cords? An energetic cord is a mental and/ or emotional connection to someone or something other than ourselves that transmit communication and provide the sharing of energy. There’s an exchange of energy and subtle information back and forth similar to an electric cord. It happens all the time but is generally temporary in nature established for various reasons such as affinity, control, knowledge or curiosity. Cording can occur between any of the chakras and can be initiated by either party or by mutual agreement. We can form cords into anyone and anything, but the strength of the cord depends on the amount of time, energy and emotion we put into thinking about that thing. The more energy and emotion invested or infused into the person or place, the stronger the cord. We can form strong attachments to books, movies, places or things not only to people. For example, Comic Con capitalizes on the fact that people form intense energetic bonds with characters and storylines. Think of all the songs that proclaim their fierce affection for locations such as, “I Left my Heart in San Francisco”, “Georgia on my Mind” and “Sweet Home Alabama.” We are singing about those cords.
Everyday when we look over at a stranger in curiosity as much to say, “What are you all about?” we zap a cord to them. Cords that form with strangers typically fall away after the interaction and need is complete if no karma needs to be worked out. If you meet someone with whom you do have karma, the cord may strengthen for a time but once the energetic exchange is completed it will be severed and suddenly the relationship may be over.
The energetic bonds formed between humans of a romantic, friendly or familial nature typically adhere through the heart chakra but other chakras can be involved depending upon the nature of the relationship.
The nature and strength of the cords in established interpersonal relationships can change over time due to the evolution of the relationship. For example, the 1st or Root chakra Mother/Infant cording that happens after birth relates to the survival and concern of the child will morph when the child exhibits its personal autonomy at 2-3 years of age. A strictly sexual relationship will be heavily corded in the 2nd or sacral chakra and possibly in the 3rd or Solar Plexus chakra where power plays could be expressed. Teacher/ student relationships form cords with the 4th, 5th, 6th chakra where higher learning is concerned.
Positive or healthy cords feel good, nurturing and supportive. Unhealthy cording feels draining, frustrating and exhausting. You know what I’m talking about? We have all had that friend or family relationship that depresses us, saps us, frustrates us. We have had that romantic ex that we cannot seem to let go of or reversely cannot let go of us no matter how many times we say, “Leave me alone!” We consciously and unconsciously create cords with numerous things and people in our lives whether we like it or not but
a cord that depletes us must GO!
It’s an important part of our spiritual hygiene practice to be aware of how your energy feels after being around someone. If you feel depleted or if you have persistent obsessive thoughts about someone, they could be toxic for you. If you are feeling rage, depression, scattered-thinking, exhaustion, even insomnia you may have an unhealthy cord bond that needs to be severed and cleared out. Cords of this type can be so intrusive especially if it has been in place for a long period of time and intense energies have traveled between and across it. You may know the energy sucker or it could be various attachments of cords you picked up from who knows where that are “bleeding” you dry. (Health care workers are especially prone to this)
Positive or healthy cords feel good, nurturing and supportive. Unhealthy cording feels draining, frustrating and exhausting....a cord that depletes us must GO!
Symptoms of Dysfunctional Cording:
· Unable to move on
· Obsessive thoughts about a person
· Frequent internal conversations with this person
· Reliving of past arguments, criticisms or judgments with the person that leave you feeling hostile or depressed.
· Nostalgia of shared interests that stir up emotions or elicit memories.
· Temptation to return to a relationship that does not serve you.
· Stalking or creeping online of their social media (Facebook, Instagram, etc.)
· Insomnia or endless analyzing or processing of the past
· Deep feelings or sadness, anger and depression.
· Feeling of wanting to get revenge or mentally rehashing of unfair treatment.
· Loss of interest in meeting anyone new
Being aware is the first step to being rid of it. Remember, you never have to be a victim of dysfunctional cording. You allowed it either through agreement or lack of awareness but you can reclaim your boundaries and sovereignty.
How to Cut the Cord
I have read about people using their Higher selves and the Higher selves of the other person or enlisting the Archangel Michael or even St Germaine in this task. It generally involves meditation, visualization and the reciting of a prayer. Some even include a ritual such as writing the person’s name on a slip of paper, stating your intention of cutting all cords associated with them followed by burning the paper, burying it or flushing the ashes.
Sometimes the cord removal process has to be repeated a few times especially if the cord has been in place for an extended period or time or the situation was highly charged with emotion.
Cord removal is a three-step process: Removal of the cord, transmutation of the energy from the removed cord, and the cleansing and sealing of the attachment point.
I will include two prayers: one includes Angel Michael and your spirit guides the other utilizes the Higher Self.
In either case, I would meditate for at least 5 minutes to ready the body and mind for the process. Once calm and in that space, you can all on Archangel Michael and your spirit guides to assist you in cord removal of the intended person. It’s important to know, that in regards to Universal Law the Angels cannot intervene unless invited to do so. Therefore we must ASK or invoke our angels and guides into action.
Say the following with conviction and intent.
I ask Angel Michael and my spirit guides to help me in this task. I wish to free myself for all eternity from _________(name) so that both of us may go free from the ties that bind and all energy attachments from the past. It is time to move past the experiences we have shared. I am thankful for what I have learned and lessons given but this attachment is no longer needed and is holding me back and affecting my “NOW”.
With power I now ask for all cords to be removed, for all energetic cords physically connecting the two of us be removed, dissolved, transmuted and cut free and all energy to be returned to the sender.
It is my intention that no more energy attachments hook onto to me from _______(name). With forgiveness and peace I release them to move away from me and move on whilst I do the same.
I now call upon Archangel Michael to use his mighty blue sword (or Jesus, Mother Mary, Kwan Yin, St. Germaine) to surround me and cut away the cords and give me protection. I ask that this be complete and sealed NOW. Please cleanse my aura of negative energy and emotions, and seal it with love.
Amen
OR
You may consciously connect to your Higher Self and the Higher Self of the person you are breaking your cord attachment with after your mediation. Their Higher Self is the part of themselves without all their fears, doubts and control issues- their LIGHT FILLED SELF. You can tell that Self of your intention and that you wish to disengage with love and forgiveness, release and say goodbye. You are making the decision to no longer carry this attachment to them.
“I break any and all agreements I have made consciously and unconsciously to allow myself to be corded by _______(name). I ask my Higher Self to remove any and all cords I have and send them back to where they came."
Now to remove any cords you have made to others:
"I break any and all attachments I have made consciously and unconsciously to cord _____(name) and ask that they be returned to me and absorbed back into my own energy."
Spend a few minutes in this energy while Michael or your Higher Self does the work. Take notice of any sensations in the body and have faith that this is being performed on you now. You can offer up any other prayers or invitations for help at this time. Always end with gratitude. You could follow up with a Violet Flame invocation.
De-cording will occasionally produce immediate reactions. You may get a call or hear from that person soon after cord detachment
What to expect after the Cord has been cut?
You can expect a mental calm that has not existed in a long time. Your head is quieter, calmer, unburdened of emotional baggage and tangled knots. The urge to follow them or drag up and rehash past memories dissolves. Any trauma that occurred during this relationship can have the space to heal now that these bonds have been cut and transmuted from your energy system. Peace of mind and clarity returns. De-cording will occasionally produce immediate reactions. You may get a call or hear from that person soon after cord detachment. You removed the line and they are reaching out to see where it went. I can say from personal experience, it can happen within 24 hours. It’s amazing. Stay strong and resist contact if you really want them gone. You, of course, have the free will to reestablish any cord that has been cut. It’s important to note that sometimes we allow cords to be formed to people with whom we give our power away because our relationship with ourselves is dysfunctional. Unless we look inward, resolve the underlying reasons why we corded in the first place and heal them, the cords will keep coming back or establish themselves in a similar way to someone else.
