Shaman Cord Cutting Continued

Continuing the Process of Cutting Energy Cords

This week I continue my discussion on shamanic cord cutting. To recap, sometimes energy cords connect us to people, places, situations, and even past lives. We may be connected energetically to a traumatic event, an accident or to a person who hurt us or to a person we hurt. We may be connected energetically to an incident that occurred in the past in which a particular kind of relationship or happening was installed in your luminous energy field that you now trying to find in the outer world. These cords are like parasites. They attach themselves to a chakra or to one of your organs. Energy cords are information superhighways that begin to organize and influence the experiences in our lives. They continue to hijack us to create outcomes that are not desirable.

Here is an exercise for identifying and cutting cords.

We have energetic connections to people, places, situations, past lives, and archetypes. Often these relationships, places, situations, and past lives keep us stuck in their energy by cords. These energy cords are toxic. If the relationship is loving and positive or the place of situation is a pleasant and positive experience, the energies just touch us lightly and dance with our energies. It is the negative, hurtful and traumatic energies that create cords and keep us held hostage in their energy field.

Explore places and situations where you might be connected by toxic cords. One of the places where we often have cords is with people we have been in relationships with. These can be past partners, past lovers, present and past co-workers, people who have hurt us or people we have hurt. Toxic cords are often created in relationships between victims of abuse and the perpetrator. In psychology we call this a trauma bond. Often there are cords between people that we have unfinished business with or with people with whom we continue to carry around anger, resentment, blame or guilt, and shame.

We sometimes have energy cords with places—places where we died in a past life; places where a trauma occurred; any place where when we think about it, we have a negative feeling response—fear, shame, guilt, anger, places where something negative occurred that left you feeling threatened, blamed, scared, or embarrassed.

We may have energetic cords connecting us to situations where negative and bad things happened to us—getting shamed at a birthday party, being embarrassed at a school function, a difficult divorce, the death of a parent, a birth trauma.

We often have cords connecting us to traumatic past lives and deaths in past lives. We can also have cords connecting us to an archetype. For example, to the victim, the persecutor, the villain, the scapegoat, any universal pattern that affects you in a negative way.

In this exercise, think back over your life, former relationship, people in your past and notice your feelings. Where you still carry a negative feeling may suggest that you have a toxic cord holding you stuck in this place. Think back to places where you lived, where you went to school, where you worked. What do you notice? Are you still carrying around negative or painful feelings or judgments about these places? This might indicate a cord. Think about major situations in your life. What keeps repeating in your life? Are you still stuck in any of these situations?

Do some tracking and write places where you might have energy cords continuing to connect you to those people and places. Notice if there is an emotional reaction inside. That is an indication that you may have a cord connected to this person or place that continues to fuel you.

Notice when you find yourself being triggered or being reactive with someone. Most often we are responding to an imprint, to a cord that is connected to a story, always connected to a story, and always connected to a person, to an experience, an event or to an archetypal story.

Using Feathers to Cut Cords*

You can use feathers to both cut cords and to clear your energy field. Holding a feather in each hand with feathers crossing over each other, clear all your chakras, one by one. Disconnecting and cutting all those toxic cords will prevent a situation from the past to continue thriving and festering and feeding from your present. The next thing you want to do is to cleanse yourself. Use those feathers and clear your entire body to be sure that there are no sticky webs to keep getting caught in.

Use the feathers to cleanse your entire body, because even if you don't have a thick cord connecting you to a former partner or to someone in your family who died without you being able to say goodbye to them, there are many webs that we are trapped in all the time. There are many situations that are trying to snare us and that are trying in some way to get something from us that we are not ready to give. We want to be sure we don't get caught in those webs. Remember that these webs come from other people, or they come from themes and stories that are playing themselves out in the media or in the collective today, and we don't want to be trapped in any of those webs. The web of success or the web of self-judgment, or the web of criticism from another. Use the feathers and clear and cleanse your entire Luminous Energy Field on a regular basis.
