The Cord Cutting ceremony is built on the belief that you form attachments, or cords, between yourself and the people in your life which are largely based on fears, desires, and old patterns. As a mother's fear for her child builds year after year, it becomes harder and harder to let go, to fully trust the child as they enter adulthood. This can cause tension between a young adult and a parent, as the parent may have trouble seeing the child as anything more than a child. Cord cutting allows us to detach those deeply rooted fears and patterns between ourselves and someone in our life, thus allowing us a fresh start.
There are plenty of descriptions online for variations of the Cord Cutting ceremony, so I'll leave it to the reader to find a good fit for themselves. As for things I found helpful to have on hand:
dried white sage for burning
grounding and cleansing essential oils, such as patchouli
a good crystal, for bringing in the light, protecting, and cutting
sunshine
quiet
a nice cup of tea to enjoy afterwards
