"Cords" and the process of “cording" are an interesting energy phenomena. There are some cords that serve you and are helpful to your spiritual growth. Your grounding cord is an example of a supportive cord. There is also a cord that provides a vital link between you as localized consciousness, in your body, and Source; we call it the Source cord. Parents of young children will support them with a cord for the first few years of their lives; if it goes on any longer both beings are essentially limiting each other's freedom. The cord needs to be separated by about age three or four. In our culture, this is a bit of an issue because often the parent and/or the child is unwilling to let go. There are, for example, many 40-year old men walking around still corded to their mothers.
There are also cords that do not serve you, and are not only unnecessary, but also limiting. You can be corded to your mother or your father or to any other relationship. The cord can be connected to anybody. You can cord people, or people can cord you. Lovers, for example, will often connect cords to each other. The cords can be plugged into any one of the different chakras, or any part of the body. It is important to understand, however, that these cords are foreign energy in an individual's space and the cords do not support autonomy and freedom as a spiritual being. They are limiting to the person's freedom, and can damage the energy system.
Cords can be created or severed at any time. Remember that cording goes both ways between individuals. No one can cord you without your permission on some level, this is usually on an unconscious level. You have to take responsibility for your side of the connection, especially if you want to make a separation. As a powerful spiritual being you can make the choice to "pull the plug" and disconnect cords. You do not need permission from the person on the other end. When you separate those cords, you will find it is like hanging up the phone with someone. A cord is like an open phone line, even if it is with a person you have not interacted with for years. Recognize your own cords. Choosing to unplug and heal them is an important step on your spiritual path.
One person can cord another person, or a being out-of-body can cord a being-in-body. A being out-of-body can also cord another being out-of-body. When someone cords someone else there is usually a game of some type going on. Lovers who cord one another are a good example. They were programmed to believe that cording is what love is. Sometimes people will cord other people to get information, to access their energy, or to control them. There is usually a lot of cording going on in families.
The "ownership game" is largely about cording. A person will cord another person's seventh chakra and feed them messages, a bit at a time, while controlling them on a core level. The cord goes both ways and it is just as limiting for the cordee as the corder - it keeps both sides dependent.
You can have a deeper and more respectful relationship with another if you are not cording each other. Unplugging the cords in a relationship is an evolution of the relationship and the spiritual beings.
Remember you create your own reality, so if you are being corded and you want to shift this dynamic, you have to take responsibility for it, without judgment. You can do something about it.
Sometimes getting a hand from a Spiritual Warrior/healer is appropriate: A woman came into the spiritual center and sat down. She was working on making a shift from a reality she had been hooked into for a very long time. She wanted to take another step in her freedom and had noticed a cord of energy that was limiting her. A few other Spiritual Warriors and I took a look at her energy, and I was instantly aware of a massive cord connected from an outside source to the right-hand side of her head, at a horizontal angle right above her ear. This cord was plugged right into her head. There were root-like tentacles extending from the cord into different parts of her brain. This cord was brownish/black, about three to four inches across, and went straight out of her personal space and was connected to a guru. The cord had a past-time quality to it, and it was clear that she was ready to make a separation. This was fortunate because it is advised that a Spiritual Warrior never assist anybody in making a separation on this level until the person has clearly decided they are ready to make the shift. Otherwise, the person on the other end of the cord may attack the Spiritual Warrior on an energy level, leaving him or her with a headache, or worse.
I asked her Spirit-to-Spirit if she was completely ready to make this shift. She assured me that she was, so I went ahead and started assisting her by pulling the guru cord out of her head. It was quite delicate work because of all the little roots that were around her brain. I did not want to hurt her by being too rough. I started using a technique that we have to erase energy. I started moving the cord out, creating more and more room for her. I pulled out the guru cord and noted that the contract with that guru had, in fact, been broken on her side. She had already removed the energy, but the guru was still pulling a fair amount from her.
The procedure took a half an hour or so, and as we worked, her energy became brighter and brighter. We worked with her for quite some time in order for her to re-own the area that we pulled the cord from. It was terribly raw. She had not owned that part of her energy system, that side of her head, for a long, long time. We assisted with filling it in with gold. She left the experience much brighter and remarkably happy. She was ready to let go, make a shift, and work on a different level, with more freedom and autonomy over her personal space.
