What Are Energetic Cords?
Energetic cords are invisible strands of energy that link us with others, places, things, beliefs, or past lives. They are formed by our thoughts, emotions, and interactions, and they can transfer energy between us and them.
We are wired to connect with one another and share energy through our energetic fields. When we have emotional relationships with others, we create energetic cords that bond us together.
These cords can be beneficial when they're based on mutual respect, trust, and love. They can help us with emotional nurturing, healing, and growth. However, these cords can also be detrimental when they're rooted in fear, resentment, neediness, or attachment. They can actually drain our energy and keep us stuck in unhealthy patterns.
Energetic cords can form with anyone or anything that we have an emotional connection with. They can form with our family members, friends, lovers, exes, coworkers, enemies, or even strangers. They can also form with places that we have visited or lived in, things that we own or desire, beliefs that we hold or challenge, or past lives that we have experienced or remembered.

Why Cord Cutting Rituals Are Important
Cord cutting is an important practice for spiritual healing and well-being. It helps us release negative emotions, patterns, attachments and influences from the past that may be holding us back or harming us in the present. By cutting the energetic cords that bind us to others, places, things, beliefs or past lives, we can reclaim our power, energy and freedom.
Cord cutting can benefit us in many ways. It can help us heal from trauma, abuse, betrayal or loss. It can help us break free from addictions, obsessions or codependency. It can help us clear our mind, emotions and aura from unwanted or harmful energies. It can help us forgive ourselves and others and let go of resentment or guilt. It can help us move on from unhealthy or toxic relationships and attract more positive and supportive ones. It can help us grow spiritually and emotionally and align with our true purpose and potential.
Cord cutting is not about rejecting or forgetting the people or things that we have connected with. It's about honoring ourselves and our boundaries and choosing what's best for our highest good. It's about creating a clean slate for a new beginning and opening ourselves to new possibilities and opportunities. It's about finding peace, happiness and harmony within ourselves and with others.

Energetic Cord Cutting Ritual
Here is a cord cutting ritual that you can use to cut harmful energetic cords:
- Prepare your space. Find a quiet and comfortable place where you won’t be disturbed. Light some candles, incense or sage to create a relaxing sacred space. If you like to use crystals or healing sound instruments, you can certainly make them a part of your cord cutting ceremony .You can also play some soothing music or sounds if you like.
- Relax and center yourself. Sit or lie down in a comfortable position. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Focus on your heart center and feel a warm and loving energy filling your chest. Imagine that you are surrounded by a protective white light that shields you from any negative influences.
- Identify the cord you want to cut. Think of the person, place, thing, belief or past life that you want to release from your life. Visualize them in front of you and notice where the cord is attached to your body. It could be your heart, your stomach, your throat or any other part of you. Cords frequently attach to chakras in our body. Feel how the cord affects your energy and emotions. Acknowledge any feelings that come up, such as anger, sadness, fear or guilt.
- Ask for help from your guides or angels. You don’t have to do this alone. You can call upon any spiritual beings that you trust and resonate with to assist you in this process. You can ask them to hold the space for you, to protect you, to heal you or to cut the cord for you. You can also ask them to communicate with you and aid you in your cord cutting ritual.

Relax & Let Go
Close your eyes and take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth. Repeat this a few times, letting go of any tension or stress in your body and mind. As you breathe, feel yourself becoming more relaxed and calm with each breath.
Now, imagine that there is a bright light above your head. This light represents your higher self, your guardian angel, or any other source of guidance that you believe in. Feel the warmth and love of this light as it surrounds you and protects you.
Next, bring your attention to your heart center, the area in the middle of your chest. Feel the energy of your heart expanding and radiating throughout your body. This is your center of love, compassion, and forgiveness.
Now, ask yourself: Who do I need to cut cords with today? It could be someone from your past or present, someone you know or don’t know, someone you love or hate. Whoever comes to your mind, trust that they are the right person for this meditation.

Cut The Energetic Cords
Once you have identified the person, visualize them in front of you. Notice how they look, how they sound, how they make you feel. Don’t judge or resist anything that comes up. Just observe and acknowledge.
Now, look for the cords that connect you to this person. They may appear as strings, ropes, chains, wires, or any other form. They may be attached to different parts of your body or aura. Notice how many cords there are, how thick or thin they are, how strong or weak they are.
As you look at these cords, ask yourself: What do these cords represent? What emotions, thoughts, memories, or patterns are they carrying? How are they affecting me and my life? Again, don’t judge or resist anything that comes up. Just observe and acknowledge.
Now, it’s time to cut these cords. You can use any tool that you like to do this. It could be a pair of scissors, a knife, a sword, a laser beam, or anything else that feels right to you. Imagine that you are holding this tool in your hand and that it is infused with the light and love of your higher self or guide.
Then, start cutting the cords one by one. As you cut each cord, say to yourself: I release you with love and gratitude. I forgive you and I forgive myself. I am free and so are you. It's important to release the cords with love and gratitude. This can be hard, but releasing them in anger will only serve to fuel the energetic tie.
Feel the energy shift as each cord is severed. Feel the relief and lightness of having cut a harmful and toxic energetic cord.

Preventing Energetic Cords From Reattaching
Energetic cords can reattach if you do not change the thoughts, emotions, and patterns that created them in the first place. To prevent them from returning, you need to address the root causes of the attachment and heal yourself from within.
Some of the ways to prevent energetic cords from reattaching are:
- Forgive yourself and others who may have hurt you or triggered you. Forgiveness is the key to releasing resentment, anger, blame and guilt that can keep you corded to someone. No cord cutting ritual will work, if you can't release the cords without resentment. Keep your own energy clean in order to cut the cord once and for all.
- Avoid drama and negativity that can lower your vibration and attract unwanted cords. Avoid railing against the person you're cutting cords with. Let them go in peace.
- Raise your vibration by engaging in positive activities that make you happy, such as meditation, gratitude, affirmations, nature walks, exercise, etc. When your vibration is high you attract positive cords and repel negative cords.
- Practice self-reflection and inner child work to heal your wounds and traumas that may make you vulnerable to unhealthy attachments.
- Set healthy boundaries and speak your truth with others. Do not allow others to manipulate, control, or take advantage of you. Express your needs and expectations clearly and respectfully.
