Spiritual Cord-Cutting
Not many of us know the meaning of Spiritual Cord – cutting and therefore do not know, what effects it can have on ones life. You can read up on this in many spiritual books, where it will be explained in more detail. I will explain to you my experiences and my way of spiritual cord – cutting and will leave the choice to you, which way you will take on for yourself.
What are Spiritual Cords?
As we go through life we meet many people; some we get close to, others may just enter our life for a brief moment. These people play an important part in our life, as they are here as part of our human emotion learning experience. They are part of our learning process, as part of a “Relationship/Friendship/ Partner- ship”. Once in a while we have to leave behind these relationships for whatever reason, to make room for new ones and to clear away negative attachments and emotional ties we do not need anymore. What do these ties/cords do to us if we do not cut them from time to time? Well they will tie us down; make us feel guilty, empty, fearful, and unable to move on in life, feelings of isolation from others, anger, not able to forgive others or ourselves. Feeling tired and unwell is also often a sign of having these ties holding us down. Trying to avoid others because of issues you have not resolved as yet, make you feel guilty or bad, no matter who is at fault. Feeling angry because someone has passed to spirit is also a tie, which should be cut, to make it possible for their spirit to move onto the light, this making it easier for them to return to us ready for communication and for us to move on from our feeling of grieve. People we have fallen out with do not have to be around us to make us feel bad; often just the thought gets us in a rage. We do not have to go through life having those feelings, we are in control, call it tie cutting or forgiveness, both are important to make it possible for us to higher our vibrations. To higher our vibrations, is our aim in life and only letting go of bad feelings, energies and emotional attachments will help us to do so. All this is also called – being emotionally drained. Cords attached between you and others drain you even if you don’t think about them, but if they talk or think about you, they are draining your energies, as they are attached to you. Our life is surrounded by emotions, good and bad and we should learn to embrace the good with the bad. Happy emotions are good for us, negative/sad emotions can and will drain our energies, but we have to feel and understand sad emotions to learn from and heal ourselves. Emotions play an important part in our life, some can help release issues we hold within ourselves to help us feel better, others can make us feel worse. Trying to let go of negative emotions/ attachments/ feeling as soon as you realise they are there, will bring healing and happiness back into your life. Have you ever felt like others were pulling your strings, like you changed your personality to fit in with others around you, because you felt like your true you would not be accepted? Has this ever made you feel good, happy or truly fulfilled? I think not. This only makes us feel that we exist to please others. What do we learn from all this. Well have you ever sat down and asked yourself what these people really mean to you, how important are they to you, what value have they in your life. I ask you to sit down for 5 minutes and think about one person, living or dead, who is making you feel uncomfortable, whenever they are around, you think of them or you hear of them. Now feel the thought pattern, feel the emotions. Now ask yourself, why are you feeling these emotions about this person. Have they done something bad or have you done something bad to them? Have they hurt your feeling or vise - versa? Whatever the reason, acknowledge these emotions. Now ask yourself what purpose this person has /had in your life. Are you dependent on them or they on you? Do you make yourself dependent on them or they on you? Try to feel what it would be like if this emotional tie was not there. Does it make you feel better or worse? When you have finished this exercise you will have learned what part this person has in your life. You now know what an emotional tie attachment is and why it is there. Other cord attachments are: Your family members, your loved ones, friends, enemies, workmates, neighbours, someone you just met, etc. Many people have traumatic ties attached to them, sometimes not even aware they are there, as they have chosen at some time in their life to block these experiences of i.e., Abuse, cruelty, neglect etc. Consciously they cannot remember these events, but our subconscious has still got all the records stored within our “Personal file” system. These are cords attached to people who have inflicted an act of cruelty or abuse to others. This can have a very big impact on someone’s life without them realising. The way we behave throughout our life is because of influences we have throughout our life. Often we behave in ways we do not like ourselves and should start asking why we do this. Finding the core of the situation will give us an opportunity to change for the better. Do not be afraid to seek the answers, as they all lie within.
Why cut cords
Often others put on us their opinion and make us believe we have no choice but to do as they say or do. Cutting cords helps to release feelings of guilt, fear, sadness, anger, loneliness etc, towards others, which attach us to others. Cutting cords will help you to feel free from these energies and their influence on your life. When used regularly we will soon start to feel different more positive towards others and ourselves. We can accept others behaviour without being influenced. It opens another more positive “US”.
Please Note
This is a very in depth subject and very personal to every individual, therefore you should seek help of an experienced Therapist, if you feel that you are effected in any way by a deeper issues, which could hold you back in any way within your life.
Cutting Cords
Cutting cords can in most cases, be a very emotional experience. You will cut away energies, which have been attached to you for a long time; the tears you will cry will be tears of cleansing, release and mostly healing. In some cases you will have to do the cord cutting a few times to make sure they do not get re - attached. Cutting your cords from your loved ones and your nearest and dearest is also important from time to time, it enables you to get rid of bad feelings towards one another. Do not worry, because energies, which are around you on a love vibration, like children, parents and partners will soon get re-attached because of the love you, hold for each other.
Exercise for Spiritual cord – cutting
Relax and put yourself in a meditative state. Practice your grounding and protection exercise. Ask you Guide, your healing Guide, Arch-Angel Gabriel, Arch Angel Michael, Arch Angel Uriel and Arch Angel Raphael to come stand by your side and ask them for their assistance during your cord cutting exercise. See yourself surrounded in beautiful white and pink healing light and feel loved and cared for. Ask Arch Angel Michael, who comes on the blue ray of light, to stand beside you with his sword of Justice and Protection. Now see cords coming from your solar plexus streaming out in front of you and see people who are attached to you. These could be your parents, children, friends, partners, neighbours, and teachers, someone who has hurt you. These images will come before you one by one and you see them attached to a cord, which is attached to you. You might have emotions of love, hate, anger, fear, disappointment or sadness come up inside you when you see these energies before you. Do not be afraid and ask your guides to help you be strong. Now ask Arch Angel Michael to cut your cords, which attach you to all these energies. See Arch Angel Michael get hold of all the ties and see him cut through them with one quick move. Feel all the energies move away from you, thank them for having been a part of you and thank them for the lessons you have learned from them. Send them loving thoughts and slowly see them fade away into the distance. You might feel emotionally overwhelmed, do not hold back tears, which need to be shed, as these are healing tears. Thank Arch Angel Michael for all his help and ask Arch Angel Raphael, who comes on the emerald green ray, to come before you and ask for his assistance. See his healing green ray come towards you and heal the area around your solar plexus, where you can feel a hole, where once all the cords have been attached. Feel his beautiful healing ray heal and close the hole firmly, feel whole again and fully healed. Thank Arch Angel Raphael for his help and assistance. Feel once again the white and pink light around you, cradling you with the feeling of unconditional love. Thank The Angels for their assistance and thank your guides for being by your side. Now slowly balance yourself and bring yourself back to the here and now. Focus, breath deeply and open your eyes when you feel totally in the here and now. Repeat the grounding and protection exercise.
Note
This exercise can be done, by imagining one person at a time. Should you wish to cut your cords from someone who is draining your energies or you just need a break from someone around you, use this exercise by just seeing this one person before you. Always ensure you seal the hole fully. Please be aware that this is an emotional exercise and that healing is an important part of our learning path.
