Magick with cords represents another simple magickal operation you can use alone or with other magickal applications, such as candle and petition work.

Simple cord magick entails the following;
*Choise of color
*Choise of cord length
*Choice of a disposibe cord, or one you will use again.
*Choice of divinity

Of course, you can work with every color of the rainbow or something in between- the choise lies with you and depends on your own experementation.

If you wish to banish negativity, you would bury the cord immediatly away from your home. If the application will centre on healing or drawing something towards you keep the cord untill the desire manifests, then release the magick and burn the cord. You release the magick by drawing a star in the air over the cord while pictureing all magick seeping away from the item.
