So I tried to cut the energetic connection last week because the whole thing was freaking me out. I did all the stuff: meditation, cord cutting visualization, and sage burning. hours of it.
3 am I wake up, chest burning, and she’s MORE present than before. wtf you know when you hold your breath underwater and your body just screams for air? That’s what fighting this feels like. Part of me wants to run. Delete her number, move states, whatever. But then 2 am rolls around and I’m staring at my phone wanting to text her about. I don’t even know. random memories that feel like ours but can’t be.
CAN you cut cords with your twin flame? Is it possible? Has anyone done it?

Cutting cords with your twin is like trying to unlearn your native language. You could live in a different place and speak a new language… but your mind is still tuned to the first one. Even if you do forget a few words here and there in the short term.. they’ll come right back.
Maybe we need to translate this energy into something more manageable instead of trying to cut it.
I spent a long time trying to cut cords using meditation and rituals, but nothing really worked since I was trying to disconnect from parts of myself. I didn’t understand that at the time.
When I felt that pull or got triggered, I’d ask myself what it was showing me about what I needed to address. One thing that helped was starting a note on my phone. I’d write down what triggered me and one small thing I could do for myself that day.
Sometimes it was just taking a walk or calling a friend instead of obsessing. That tight feeling you mentioned? It eased when I redirected my energy into other activities like work or hobbies. The connection’s still there, but it’s less intense now that I have more to focus on.
So I’m trying to maintain a friendship with my twin flame after cord cutting. It’s put us in this weird spot. We decided to stay friends but I went ahead and tried setting energetic boundaries.
Now we get these awkward pauses when we’re talking, we both know what the other person’s thinking but we just pretend we don’t. The cords are supposedly cut but we still end up wearing similar clothes without planning it. And we keep running into each other at random places.
After my last attempt at cord cutting, I began seeing 222 and 444 all over the place, instead of my usual 1111. I checked online and found out that 222 suggests a need for balance, and 444 relates to foundations.
I questioned if spirit was signaling that cutting cords was unsettling something basic. The numbers didn’t switch back to 1111 until I let it be.
Your timing definitely matters with this. Trying to cut cords during the bubble love phase is basically impossible, like trying to stop breathing.
During separation, you might get some temporary (the key word being temporary!) relief, but it usually (or… basically always) comes back to bite you during the dark night phase when you actually need that connection. Once people hit the surrender stage, they don’t even want to cut anymore.
They’re more focused on setting better boundaries while keeping the connection.
I get what you’re going through. I tried the same thing last year, cord-cutting ritual, sage, meditation, everything. I was desperate to stop the intensity. Cutting cords with your twin flame didn’t work like it does with other connections.
Twin flame connections are different because the bond runs deeper than just energy between two people. Your twin reflects parts of yourself back at you. When I tried to sever the connection, everything got worse. 3 am wake-ups? Check. Burning chest? Been there. That drowning feeling you described, yeah, like your soul is gasping.
Instead of trying to cut or run (I considered moving countries), I started working on balancing my own energy. When I focused on my own stuff instead of fighting the connection, things got calmer. The connection will always be there with twin flames.
You can find some peace by working on yourself rather than trying to escape it. Sometimes it feels more about dealing with your own issues than about the other person, which sucks when you’re in the middle of it.
Did a cord cutting ritual after we finished each other’s presentations in a meeting and I could barely get through it. Didn’t work at all, seemed to make things worse. Plus the coffee machine died right after I did the ritual.
Right idea, wrong practice. You do need to set aside watching over their social media 10 times a day, etc, but cord-cutting isn’t going to do it for you. Not with your TF.
Tried it too after a month of separation. The connection didn’t disappear completely, but I’d already emotionally detached enough that the ritual just made official what I’d already decided. Sounds like you’re trying to force the separation while still holding on energetically.
Like trying to hold your breath forever, your body (or your soul in this case) is gonna fight for what it needs.
Every time I tried to visualize cutting them, it just made me more aware of how deep they go. It’s like trying to cut away parts of yourself that have always been there. The physical sensations got worse the more I tried to force them away. My body just wouldn’t let me do it, like it was fighting against the separation.
I felt physically sick when I tried cord cutting last year. I got a fever for three days after the ritual and my ears would ring whenever I thought about them. The energy seemed to just find new ways to reach me. It showed up in songs playing on repeat and seeing triple numbers everywhere, so I eventually stopped resisting it.
I tried it in the very beginning. Especially for the fact that my DF TF was to get married. Later on also became pregnant. Sth I couldn’t cope with at all. They were mirroring me about such a long time. Something I never experienced before. And the most frightening thing was that pain in my chest. Something I never experienced before either. And at that time I didn’t know anything about TFs at all. But I started reading and learning. First I guessed soulmates, but that wasn’t it. Step by step I learned about twin flames and realized that I probably had no chance. Which wasn’t so bad by the way. My DF was reading my mind, answered questions I didn’t even spoke out. Very soon I gave in an admitted to this divine situation. Why should I fight it anyway? I am not quite sure, whether they know about TF at all. But this lasts for about three years by now. I don’t know whats gonna become of this in the end, but it is so wonderful, so beautiful. I don’t want to miss this chest pain ever. Especially for the fact, that this is supposed to be a sign, that your TF is thinking of YOU that very moment intensively and that they are feeling the same? Honestly I almost can’t believe it myself, because it is out of reach for comprehension. I also learned, that the universe/god brought you together in the first place, and that didn’t happen for nothing, right?
If you’re drowning in someone else’s energy, you need that break just to see what’s yours and what’s theirs. Cut the cords, get some space, then figure out why you keep attracting the same patterns. otherwise yeah, those cords just come right back.
It’s a short-term tool to help you deal with what you need to deal with. Not an ejectors seat.
What if we can’t cut these cords because they’re not just in one place? I keep having these dreams about old connections that feel like real encounters, not just my brain processing stuff. Maybe cutting is pointless when they might be even stronger in whatever dimension dreams happen in. Maybe we’re approaching this whole thing wrong.
A lot of people think cord cutting is supposed to work right away, but it’s been more gradual for me. It’s basically like dieting. You have to keep at it for a while before anything actually happens.
When I tried cutting cords with mine, the harder I fought it, the more intense everything got. Like my own resistance was making it worse. I kept getting this burning sensation. Every time I wanted to run or block them, there was some uncomfortable truth I didn’t want to look at. The ritual never worked for me. Still dealing with it honestly.
I have tried this and while it can have a temporary effect, it doesn’t last long. You and she are one. So you can’t just cut off an entire part of you. If you try, it just grows back.
If you desire to lessen the impact of her energy, try shielding exercises, visualization, or telling yourself that you are sovereign in your energy, your energy remains with you, and her energy remains with her. It helps me to say out loud “I release all energy that is not mine to carry”. It’s important you try not to feel doubt in these times and allow yourself to believe it wiithout thinking too much. But the goal is to keep your energy surrendered and balanced while also choosing to distance your energy from hers. Fighting it is fear energy, and opposite what you want to embrace on a twin flame journey.
Distance means nothing if it’s your TF. Trust me, I tried it all.
Blocked them, moved across the country, deleted everything. The connection doesn’t care. Here’s what happened, though: being far away meant I couldn’t hide behind seeing them all the time. Had to actually look at my own mess.
Spent months lying to myself. Said I was working on myself, but really, I was just waiting for them to text. Living on coffee and takeout, stalking their social media at 2 am from a fake account. Being apart did give me some clarity, though. Saw how badly I was treating myself while being obsessed with them. The connection’s still there no matter what, but at least now I can see my own stuff more clearly.
