There are many types but whatever the case a cord is basically a connection between the astral and etheric bodies of two or more beings which allows for an exchange of emotional and/or etheric energy.

Fortunately all cords can be cleared fairly easily. It only takes one of the people to clear the cord and it will be cleared from the other. Through the practices learned in Past Life - Regression you can become aware of all your cords and learn to clear them. Interestingly while exploring a cord you can remember when and how it was created, how you felt about it and how it has been operating while it was there.

As the states are achieved through drugs and not by clearing and raising the vibration of the subtle bodies, the end result is a more chaotic and crystallized astral body which can even become cracked or begin to shatter as a result of the sudden raise in vibration caused by the drug.
