STEPS
Place the mirror flat
Place black candle at the top.
Place red candle below it.
Salt mixed with black pepper in a small pile next to the candles.
Water beside it.
Hold the string between your hands.
That string is the obsession.
The checking.
The invisible tether.
Light the black candle.
Say: “What drains me is cut without mercy.”
Light the red candle.
“My desire is mine. My power is mine. My attention is earned.”
Look directly into the mirror.
Say slowly: “You do not get my thoughts.
You do not get my energy.
You do not get access to me in silence.”
Wrap the string once around your fingers.
Pull it tight.
Say: “I withdraw the supply.”
Cut it clean.
Drop the pieces into the salt and pepper.
Spit lightly into the bowl of water.
Say: “What I revoke does not return.”
Turn the mirror face down.
Let the candles burn 13 minutes, snuff out when ready.
Do not check anything for 24 hours.
If you often find yourself caught in the loop of overthinking about someone or something that no longer serves your well-being, I highly recommend trying this energetic cord cutting ritual. It’s designed to help you take back control of your mental and emotional space by symbolically cutting off the invisible connections that drain your energy. The beauty of this ritual lies in its simplicity and the intention behind each step. Using everyday items like candles, a mirror, salt, and string, you create a focused environment to acknowledge the obsession or unhealthy attachment. Lighting the black candle first symbolizes cutting away what drains you, while the red candle reinforces your reclaiming of desire and personal power. Looking in the mirror affirms the boundaries you are setting with yourself and others. An important part of the ritual is the 24-hour no-check period afterward. This helps solidify your mental shift away from compulsive behaviors such as repeatedly checking a person's page or replaying hurtful interactions. During that time, I found it helpful to engage in activities that nourish you, like journaling, meditation, or spending time in nature. These positive distractions reinforce the withdrawal of energy from what no longer serves you. Also, mixing salt and black pepper symbolizes purification and protection, while cutting the string physically represents cutting energetic cords. The act of spitting lightly into the water bowl is a traditional gesture to seal the release and prevent a return of the drained energy. From my personal experience, combining this ritual with regular self-discipline practice and mindful attention to your emotional health can lead to powerful and lasting change. Remember, the goal is not to seek closure from the other person but to empower yourself with discipline and self-respect. This practice is a form of self-care that helps you honor your boundaries and preserve your energy for what truly nourishes your soul.
So I remove the candles from the mirror?
