Simple Cord Cutting Spell: How to Release Energetic Bonds

Introduction

Are you feeling drained or overwhelmed by certain relationships in your life? If so, you may benefit from a simple cord cutting spell to help release the energetic bonds that are tying you to these individuals. In this article, we will explore the concept of ethereal cords that bind us to others, why cord cutting spells can be beneficial, and how you can perform your own ritual to set yourself free.

What are Ethereal Energetic Cords?

Ethereal energetic cords are invisible connections that link us to the people we interact with on a daily basis. These cords can be formed through intense emotional experiences, shared trauma, or unhealthy attachments. They can drain our energy, cloud our judgment, and make it difficult for us to move forward in life. By cutting these cords, we can free ourselves from negative influences and regain our sense of self.

Why Might You Need a Cord Cutting Spell?

You may need a cord cutting spell if you find yourself constantly thinking about a person, feeling emotionally drained after interacting with them, or experiencing recurring negative patterns in your relationships. These signs could indicate that you are energetically tied to someone in a way that is not serving your highest good. A cord cutting spell can help you sever these ties and reclaim your personal power.

Benefits of Cord Cutting Spells

Cord cutting spells can bring a sense of liberation and empowerment, helping you to let go of past hurts and move forward with clarity and positivity. By releasing the energetic bonds that bind you to others, you can create space for new, healthy relationships to enter your life. You may also experience a renewed sense of self-confidence and inner peace as you reclaim your personal boundaries.

How to Perform a Simple Cord Cutting Spell

This form of magick is best performed on a full moon, during the waning cycle or a dark moon. An adept practitioner usually opts to work this kind of spell without the constraints of having to have physical spell crafting items to hand. Some opt to work within an astral temple (more on this in a future post). Learning to work this kind of spell without needing 'tools' is good practise, as it allows you to perform the spell anywhere with nothing more than your magickal skill. 

To perform an easy, simple cord cutting spell without the use of any paraphernalia, find a quiet space where you feel comfortable and safe. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths to center yourself. Enter into a meditative or trance state. Visualise your astral body and the cords that connect you to the individual you wish to release. Take your time. Ensure to see the cords in your minds eye as clearly as possible, take a mental note of how they appear, are they decaying or do they look strong?  Usually cords begin around the location of the Manipura chakra, also known as the solar plexus chakra, an energy center in the upper abdomen that controls vitality and personal power. However, it has been known for cords to exists stemming from other energy centres. Where are the cords you see projecting from? See these cords being cut with an athame or scissors, symbolising the severing of the energetic ties between you. As you do this, repeat a mantra such as, "I release you with love and compassion, may we both be free from this connection." You might choose to use an incantation for example "I release the ties that bind, I reclaim my peace of mind. With this cord, I sever the link, Freeing myself to thrive and think."  Once the cords are cut, visualise the ends of those cords being 'earthed' (buried into the ground), that is to say that they are not  wildly flailing around.

If you prefer to use physical tools in your spellwork, you might opt to use a piece of cord and a candle. Begin by finding a quiet space where you can focus and center yourself. Additionally, you might opt to cleanse your space using incense or you might like to work within a sacred circle. When you are ready, light the candle and hold the cord over the flame, visualising the negative energy and emotional ties being burned away. As you hold the cord over the candle flame, repeat a simple affirmation such as those suggested above. Focus on your intention to cut the cord and let go of any lingering attachments. When you feel ready, allow the cord to burn through completely, symbolising the release of the energetic bond. (Always use a fireproof surface and be mindful of safety).

After the cord has burned and snapped apart, take a moment to ground yourself and give thanks for the release of negative energy. You may wish to bury the remnants of the cord or dispose of them in a way that feels meaningful to you. Take a few deep breaths and visualise yourself surrounded by a protective shield, free from the ties that once bound you.

An alternative method, which controversially has been over popularised through social media, is the use of two candles often tied with cord or string. The more preferable tool of choice for this option would be handdipped, twin candles which share the same wick. For this method, each candle is inscribed with names and symbols representing the parties concerned. Additional steps are as above. 

Too harsh to go all in?

Relationships Require a Little 'Finessing'

In some cases, completely severing ties with someone may not be feasible or desirable. In these situations, a cord cutting spell can help you maintain a healthy distance while still allowing for positive interactions. By releasing the negative energy that binds you, you can create space for new, healthier connections to form.

Option for New and Healthy Cords

If you are not quite ready to fully cut ties with a person or situation, you may consider replacing the unhealthy cord with a new, healthy one. Visualizing a bright, vibrant cord connecting you to the other party can help reinforce positive interactions and create a sense of renewal in the relationship.

Good Magickal Hygiene: Ensuring Spiritual Protection

After performing a cord cutting spell, it is important to ensure that you have proper spiritual protection in place. Good magickal hygiene is essential for maintaining your energetic boundaries.
One way to cleanse and protect yourself after a spell is to take a spiritual bath. You can also smudge your space with sacred herbs such as sage or palo santo to clear out any residual energy. Utilise charms, sigils or crystals to set protective boundaries. By taking the time to cleanse and protect yourself after performing magickal work, you can ensure that you are not leaving yourself vulnerable to negative influences. Good magickal hygiene is key to maintaining balance and harmony in your spiritual practice.

Conclusion

In conclusion, a simple cord cutting spell can be a powerful tool for releasing the energetic connections that no longer serve you. By taking the time to perform this ritual with intention and focus, you can free yourself from negative influences and reclaim your personal power. Remember that self-care and self-love are essential components of any spiritual practice, so be gentle with yourself as you embark on this journey of healing and transformation.
