Dear Sabrina,
 
This might help:
 
http://www.kheper.net/topics/Taoism/microcosmic_orbit.html
 
My energy circulates also and doesn't really want to ground.  
 
The following is from the introduction to *TAO, The Chinese Pholosophy of  
Time and Change by Philip Rawson and Laszlo Legeza.*  It also gives a similar  
diagram.  
 
"In Taoism sex, medicine and mysticism are intimately woven together.  The  
human body, like the world it inhabits, is permeated by energies. They pass  
through it from outside, sweeping its doings, thoughts and history along in  
their process...
 
<interesting stuff snipped> 
.....
 
"The meditator starts the circulation by 'sending his thought' around a track  
which rises up from the base of the spine to the top of the head, and  
descends through the upper lip and the front of the chest, to the root of the  
sexual organ.  From there it goes into the lowest crucible, helping the  
condensation of the ching.  Then it sets off again to the base of the spine,  
and so on.  The energy derived from the breath is gradually identified with  
the 'thought'. As the circulation becomes more vigorous, and the energy  
ceases to be mere 'thought', it becomes a true 'inner fire', and its channel  
becomes more definite.  The spinal column, in particular, turns into a  
magnificent road of ascent to a range of magical mountains which rise beyond  
the head.  These represent the ultimate home of the immortal 'mountain man'.   
The road up passes through three gates.  The lowest is at the base of the  
spine; the second in the back; the thrid, the Jade gate, is where the spine  
joins the skull.
 
"The whole circulation becomes a passage through twelve stages, each  
represented by one of the I-ching hexagrams.  As the energy rises up the  
spine, so the yang content increases.  As it descends down the front channel,  
so yin replaces yang......
 
"The fused and transformed ching-ch'i-shen substance then rises up the  
mid-channel to the topmost crucible.  Circulating there, it, so to speak,  
intersects with the vast orbit of the Original cosmic ch'i and shen of the  
Tao.  From this meeting a pair of liquid radiances flower, one named silver  
and one named gold, sometimes moon and sun.  A special ambrosia gathers in  
the mouth like saliva.  This must be swallowed down the front subtle channel  
into the lowest crucible...."
 
Love, HillaryI

Hello,
 
Perhaps I was unclear about the direction my cord seems to go. It  
actually does curve backwards and up, like a puppy dogs tail..I have  
not yet done as you suggested 'cause I'm at work! I was grounded lat  
night when I first noticed it though. It does seem to curve into my  
heart chakra, crown chakra, and the chakra at the medulla oblongata.  
Other times it seems to loop up over my head and goes into my heart  
at the front. Weird, huh? It seems as if my cord is trying to ground  
from whichever chakra is most active at any given time. Silly  
cord.........the darn thing won't drop and go into the ground!!!So  
I'm using my feet chakras like magnets to pull energy up from the  
earth until I can go home and figure this thing out. It's funny  
though, last week I was noticing that when I bring the energy down  
from the sun and into my torso, it works pretty well. However, when I  
try to bring it from the tailbone down to my feet I feel a huge  
energy gap between my tailbone and my feet. The energy block seem to  
be in the hips mostly. No wonder I'm so freakin' high- 
strung......'cause I'm literally high-strung!!!! :P :)
