Cord Cutting: Desert
This cord cutting uses landscape as context. The desert isn’t symbolic here, it’s practical. Sparse, exposed, honest. The journey moves through a place where there’s nowhere to hide and nothing extra to carry, which makes it possible to see an old story clearly and decide what no longer belongs to it. The cut happens through revision and choice, not confrontation, letting the narrative itself loosen so the attachment can fall away without force.
Cord Cutting: Eros
This cord cutting leans into Eros as heat, motion, and aliveness. We warm the body first, move that yellow seed through the inner terrain, and let the cut come from fullness. The front porch of the soul’s home matters here. There’s no urgency or collapse. Just a clear, embodied choice. The burn is steady and clean. Desire does what it knows how to do, loosening attachment without shaming, without shutting down pleasure or agency.
Cord Cutting: The Red Thread
This cord cutting works with the red thread as something inherent rather than something to earn or repair. The journey stays in the body, especially the sacral waters, and moves slowly through sensation, consent, and creative energy. Release here is not about severing connection to desire or instinct, but about loosening what has dulled or quieted the wild knowing we’re born with. The Maiden, Mother, and Crone appear as witnesses and companions, helping restore access to erotic vitality, belonging, and continuity without collapsing into shame or obligation.
Cord Cutting: St. Lucia’s Night
This is a ritual-based cord cutting held through light, witness, and intentional action rather than visualization alone. The use of candles, salt, and simple tools grounds the release in the body and the senses, allowing separation to happen slowly, visibly, and with care. This journey leans into ritual as a stabilizing container, where the act of cutting is paired with reverence, timing, and choice, rather than urgency or emotional force.
Cord Cutting: Resurrection
This cord cutting is not about severing in the traditional sense. It holds a moment of looking back without reentering, acknowledging the underworld without descending into it. The emphasis here is on sovereignty, emergence, and choosing to be born anew without collapsing into what has already been lived. Resurrection is framed as an act of consent and readiness rather than struggle, offering a way to release the past while staying oriented toward what is opening next.
Cord Cutting: Communion
This cord cutting is relational and discerning rather than decisive. We will travel holy ground, lean deep into our beings, reckon with the connections that have grown stale or that have simply completed their work in us. We'll partake in a type of inner communion that gives us the opportunity to do what feels right: to sever, to readjust, to release, to firm up - there is no right or wrong. So come with your tender heart cords, come with your stories, come with your desires, come with your aches. You are the healer.
Cord Cutting: The Old Forest
This cord cutting is deliberate and unhurried. It moves through old growth, following the pace of something that has been rooted for a long time. The forest holds history, attachment, and patience, allowing the connection to reveal itself rather than be hunted down. Release here comes through sovereignty and steadiness, trusting that what is ready to be severed will show itself when approached with care.
Cord Cutting: Let it In, Let It Out
This cord cutting lives in movement rather than separation. It works through rhythm, breath, and repetition, allowing what has been held too tightly to move through instead of being severed. The volcano is not about destruction here, but circulation. Heat, pressure, grief, joy, fear, and relief are all allowed to pass in the same current. This class belongs to moments when containment has done its job and flow is what’s needed next.
Cord Cutting: The Sea Cave
This journey unfolds slowly, held inside the warmth and shelter of a sea cave tucked away in our inner territories. What loosens here does so without shock or force. The cave offers a place where the body can soften and loosen gently, guided by a sense of safety rather than intensity.
Cord Cutting: Uproot
This journey moves directly to what is tangled beneath the surface. We recognize when a bond has grown too entwined to tend, and when release is needed for life to keep moving. The letting go here is clear and steady, meeting deep attachment and trauma bonds without drama, and trusting that honesty can be enough to create freedom.
Cord Cutting: Life Raft
Rather than cutting the cords this time, we untie the rope, toss it into the water, and watch that person/that connection float over the horizon. Instead of severing, we allow distance to form gently and naturally. The release here is quiet and buoyant, offering space to float, recalibrate, and breathe again. It trusts that safety and separation can coexist, and that letting go does not have to be abrupt in order to be real.
Cord Cutting: Eras
This journey moves through time as a living landscape. It allows past eras of the self to be witnessed, honored, and released without collapsing them into a single story. The cord we cut here is temporal, loosening identification with who we were so who we are becoming has room to arrive.
Cord Cutting: An End Is Also A Beginning
This journey works with endings that are honest rather than catastrophic. It begins with the wisdom of the Death card, letting cycles complete without clinging or collapse. When something is ready to be released here - a cycle, a pattern, a relationship - it makes room for agency, dignity, and a quieter beginning that does not need to announce itself.
Cord Cutting: The Green Ribbon
This is a cord cutting journey rooted in reclaiming sovereignty through story. Drawing from The Green Ribbon folklore, the work centers the moment when curiosity, entitlement, or devotion crosses into possession, and asks what it means to belong to oneself again. Cord cutting here is held as an act of self authorship rather than rupture, honoring the truth that some boundaries exist to keep life intact.
Cord Cutting: Place
This journey works with Place as something alive, something that shapes us in real and lasting ways. It recognizes how environments, shelters, and landscapes have fed and held the soul, and it does not ask for erasure in order to release. Letting go here is ecological rather than abrupt, guided by respect for what has been gathered and trust in Nature’s ability to regenerate, carry memory, and continue on in new forms.
Self Reclamation: Beyond the Wall
This journey follows on from the Cord Cutting: Invasive Roots. Here, we listen to defenses instead of tearing them down. We ask what the wall has been protecting and whether it still needs to stand. Reclamation happens through respect for survival intelligence. As always, we move slowly, with intention, and on behalf of all our parts of Self. There is no rush, no need to force or conjure an outcome.
Cord Cutting: Invasive Roots
Cord cutting is held here as a gardening practice rather than a severing, guided by relationship with land, body, and the wisdom of what is native.
If you can, try to spend some time in Nature before this cord cutting. Watch the way plants, animals, and elements interact with one another. Observe how the interconnectedness of Nature feels in your own body. Take note of what is native to your part of the world and what is not.
Cord Cutting: Lanterns
This cord cutting moves slowly, led by tenderness rather than urgency. It’s less about severing and more about illuminating, turning a soft light toward connections that no longer fit. Curiosity and self regard stay intact as clarity emerges, allowing release to happen through honesty and care instead of force.
Cord Cutting: Their Healing Is Not Your Healing
This Cord Cutting centers on untangling love from performance and competition. It names the kind of enmeshment where care slowly turns into self abandonment, and creates space to step back without making anyone wrong. The release here is tender rather than abrupt, allowing connection to loosen without collapse, blame, or bypass, and restoring a sense of sovereignty that doesn’t require distance to be cruel.
