Every human being on Earth has thousands if not millions of Etheric Cords attached to their auric fields. These cords may encompass a single strand, tangled interwoven clusters or very tight braids that connect us to people, relationships, locals, objects, cultures, belief systems as well as our light bodies.
Etheric Cords are sometimes referred to as ethereal cords, energetic cords or ribbons. Theses cords are essentially energy structures that connect to our light bodies aura, chakras, etc. They extend outwardly from our auric fields and psychically connect with other people, places, animals and even objects. These cords could have been established in a prior life before coming into the present physical body. They can also be implemented for connections to future relationships and events and nourished through new encounters and agreements in this life that will be taking place in the future.
We consciously and unconsciously create etheric cords with many people in our lives naturally through choice and attraction. This is the primary job of our karma to facilitate this process. You can visualize etheric cords as emotional strands of energy. One of the first cords that we create is to our biological mother through the process of conception. The maternal energy a mother sends to her unborn child whether it be positive or negative psychically connects to the child and helps to set the tone and radiance for bonding throughout the child’s lifespan. This cord to our mother can span a person’s lifetime. For a child this an important cord because it emotes the information concerning the health and well being of a child. Once a child becomes individuated and matures into adulthood it isn’t as necessary to have this cord tethered as prominently, although it does remain through mother and child in their lifetimes. Most mother’s prefer to keep this cord attached to their adult child as it can influence future lifetimes and bonds they could share.
Our strongest and most profound cords are with those whom we have frequent contact with such as our close friends and family members. The more powerful the emotional bond, whether it be positive or negative, the stronger the cording will be. The cords to be watchful over are the cords that are negative in nature. Negative cords are kind of like sticky taffy-like cables of emotional and psychic energy that keep you attached to something or someone in an unhealthy or unbalanced way. This would depend upon what issues and imprints that are carried within the light bodies which will determine where in the emotional body the cord is attached to. If you are in a powerful conflict with someone you will most likely have a thick, sticky and cloudy cord attached to this person from your third chakra.
Some of the most common relationships that are important to be aware of are:
Mother-Daughter
Father-Son
Husband-Wife
Past friends
Past romantic partners
Past toxic relationships
Relationships with employers-past and present
People you have had car accidents with, witnessed trauma together and experienced the death of a loved one with.
When we meet and connect with another person, place or thing, especially with a romantic partner, we stimulate the creation of an energetic cord. As we progress through the relationship every interaction, thought form and emotion is added and integrated into the cord. As relationships deepen, etheric cords become stronger and more established.
An established cord has does have the ability to share energy and transmit a high frequency of communication which would explain why we often feel and connect telepathically to our partners thoughts and emotions. When the cord is healthy it can create a vibrant and energetic source exchange. When the cord is unhealthy it can lead to feelings of being manipulated or having your energy drained and sometimes depression after spending time with that person. This concept pertains to all relationships with people, places and things.
When you merge with someone by interacting with them even by thinking or speaking about them you will create an etheric cord to them. An energetic cord will extend out of you from your auric field and then directly connect with that persons energy fields. Keep in mind energy flows in both directions at the same time.
The creation of our ethereal cords can be very potent in nature and will depend upon the energy of the other person, place or thing with whom you have formed one. The energy between two people can be very dynamic carrying both positive and negative charges. Sometimes we can take someone’s nurturing energy or have ours taken from us and the connection will still be healthy and positive. However, there some cords which are created when you cling to someone or something out of a scarcity-based mindset that are harmful. These types of dependent and parasitic cords can leave you feeling drained energetically. Pay close attention how you feel when you spend time with someone. If you feel drained, resentful or irritated after being together it might be time for a cord cutting and reassessment of the relationship. Empathic people are particularly vulnerable to leaks in energy and more discernment is needed in choosing close relationships.
Preventing Damaging and Toxic Cords from Forming and Staying
In protecting your aura try to cultivate a spirit of neutrality towards the people, beliefs and material objects in your life from time to time. Be watchful of how much trauma you are sharing and connecting to those around you at this level.
Sharing problems with family and friends and even strangers is natural and quite common. It allows you to feel as though you are not alone with your struggles. It can also confirm that you are going through the human experience. Remember though there is something much deeper going on energetically in a very subtle behind the scenes. With your thoughts and energy extending to and from your others you are both creating a powerful cord of energy that feeds into each others emotions. This interchange can otherwise be known as trauma bonding. Now imagine that you have created a strong enough bond that you have created a hook? Eventually you will end up with an energy attachment which is more difficult to dissolve and allows the unhealthy relationship to persist.
Clearing Our Etheric Cords
One of the main remedies for severing and dissolving negative psychic cords is through the practice of guided meditation. In order to facilitate this you may envision the cord as a physical connection and then visualize cutting through it with very strong white light. Imagine cutting cords of attachment over and over again. As you become aware of the lessoning negative energy and more brilliant feeling you will know that the meditation is working. You may also call in the assistance of your dedicated spirit guides to help severe the cords using Divine white light. If you still feel that you might have a stubborn dense cord or a hook remaining and feel you are not able to resolve this on your own you can always seek out the expertise of a healer to assist you such as a specialist in Reiki or Zero Point Healing. The primary goal here is to clear the cords of unhealthy connections as well as negative energy patterns. In doing this you can move forward to receive new karmic cycles, feel centered and have more available energy. This does not mean that you will necessarily release people from your life, you are simply clearing the negative ties that are energetically bind you.
My Best to You…
