CORDS   

Cords are requests for attention and a need for energy.  They can also be painful and/or uncomfortable at best.  We will plug our cords into others and they will plug into us.  However, no one can plug into another without permission on some level. 

 

Cords indicate that we are feeding on another's energy, or they are feeding on ours.  As you look at the functions/qualities of each of the chakras it will give you an indication of what someone is wanting from you or what you want from them.  When you visualize your chakras and see cords, you will know if it is from you or to you.  If unsure, ask your angel/guides.   Remember, whatever you want from another is a "red flag" that you are not giving it to yourself.

 

ALL CORDS MUST BE REMOVED and there is a specific way to accomplish that.  Sometimes a cord will have hooks so before you remove any cord, check for the hooks and release them before you unplug it.    

 

Pulling a cord is literally like pulling a plug from a socket.  The difference is that when you pull the cord, while still holding it you say, "I lovingly release you to your own highest good", then hand the cord to your angel/guide.  Once removed, just check for any tears or rips that may have occurred and repair as needed.

 

It's always a good practice to create the habit of checking and aligning your chakras each time you are in your Center.  The more you stay in balance, the quicker you will recognize when you are not.  Additionally, as you feel your body shifting as a result of your efforts you will trust and utilize the process to your highest and greatest good even more.
