Sometimes after intimacy, you don’t feel glowing and alive. You feel tired. Foggy. Moody. Like something is still attached to you. That’s not random. In witchcraft, we understand that sexual energy is powerful magic. It creates cords—real energetic ties—between people. And not all of them are healthy.
Sexual cords form when bodies and spirits meet. They aren’t always bad. In loving relationships, they can feel warm, safe, supportive. But when the connection is toxic, casual without care, manipulative, or simply out of alignment, those cords can drain you. You might think about them constantly. Crave them. Feel pulled toward them even when you know better.
If you’ve ever said, “Why can’t I let them go?” even after the relationship ended… that’s often a cord still feeding. It can pull on your sacral chakra, your heart, even your root. And the longer it stays, the more your sexual energy healing becomes delayed. Your body wants freedom. Your spirit does too.
The good news? You can cut sexual cords. You don’t need their permission. You don’t need a dramatic ritual. You just need intention, a little witchy focus, and the courage to reclaim your energy. Let’s walk through it gently.
What Are Sexual Energy Cords in Witchcraft?
Sexual energy cords are energetic threads created during intimacy. When two people share sexual energy, their auras weave together. That weaving forms a cord. The deeper the emotional exchange, the stronger the cord.
These cords usually connect through the sacral chakra (below the belly button), but they can also attach to the heart or solar plexus. If the relationship was intense, obsessive, or traumatic, the cord can feel thick and sticky.
You’ll know it’s draining you if:
-
You feel sudden waves of emotion that don’t feel like yours
-
You crave someone who treated you poorly
-
You feel exhausted after thinking about them
-
Your sexual energy feels blocked or numb
That’s when it’s time for cord cutting ritual work.
1. The Simple Candle Cord Cutting Ritual
This is one of the most classic ways to cut sexual cords in witchcraft.
You’ll need:
-
2 small candles (one for you, one for them)
-
A piece of string
-
A fire-safe plate
Tie the string loosely between the two candles. As you light them, say out loud:
“I release you. I call my energy back. What is yours returns to you. What is mine returns to me.”
Watch the string burn. As it snaps, feel it in your body. Breathe deeply. Imagine your sexual energy healing as golden light filling your sacral chakra.
Afterward, don’t text them. Don’t stalk their socials. Let the magic finish its work.
2. Salt Bath Sexual Energy Cleanse
Water is powerful for removing cords.
Run a bath with:
-
Sea salt or Epsom salt
-
A splash of apple cider vinegar
-
Rose petals (optional but beautiful)
As you sit in the water, place your hands over your lower belly and say:
“I cleanse all sexual cords that drain me. I reclaim my body. I reclaim my power.”
Visualize dark threads dissolving into the water. When you pull the plug, imagine the last of the energy leaving your field. This kind of sexual energy healing is gentle but deep.
3. Scissors Visualization Technique
If you don’t have tools, your mind is enough.
Close your eyes. Picture the person standing in front of you. See the energetic cord between you. Notice where it connects—belly, heart, throat?
Now imagine a pair of glowing scissors in your hand. Calmly cut the cord. Watch it retract back into them. Then see your wound sealing with light.
Say:
“This cord is cut. I am sovereign in my energy.”
Do this for 7 nights if needed.
4. Call Your Energy Back Spell
Sometimes cutting isn’t enough. You also need to call your energy back.
Stand barefoot if possible. Touch your sacral chakra and say:
“I call back all sexual energy I have given away knowingly or unknowingly. I call it back cleansed and restored.”
You may feel warmth. Tingling. Emotion. That’s your power returning.
This step is crucial in cord cutting ritual work. You’re not just removing them—you’re restoring yourself.
5. Protection After You Cut Sexual Cords
After you cut sexual cords, protect yourself so they don’t reattach.
-
Stop physical intimacy with them completely
-
Clean your bedroom energetically (smoke cleanse, sound cleanse, or prayer)
-
Wear black tourmaline or obsidian
-
Set a boundary spell around your body before sleeping
Say each night:
“No cords may attach to me without my consent.”
Sexual energy healing works best when boundaries are clear.
Signs the Cord Is Truly Gone
You’ll notice:
-
You stop obsessing
-
Your sexual energy feels lighter
-
Dreams about them fade
-
Your body feels like yours again
And sometimes? They randomly text you. That’s the cord snapping on their side. Stay strong. Don’t reopen it.
Reclaiming Your Sacred Body
Your sexual energy is sacred magic. It’s creative force. Life force. Pleasure force. Not everyone deserves access to it.
Cutting sexual cords isn’t bitter. It’s powerful. It’s saying, “I choose myself.” It’s protecting your aura, your womb space, your sacral fire.
You are allowed to enjoy intimacy. You are allowed to love. But you are also allowed to close doors that drain you. That’s real witchcraft.
