What does it mean if during a cord cutting the cord doesn’t burn?

The cord is symbolic, not necessarily operational to be effective. It might make more of a psychological / subconscious impact if you take control and light the cord on fire yourself rather than wait for it to happen to catch fire by way of one of the candles.

I want to encourage people to stop using this fire hazard ritual, so I will present an alternative. To cut the cord of two connected beings. Start with a ritual cleansing bath. Have a consecrated space such as an altar, with 2 lit candles, and place a representative of each, such as a photo, name on a piece of consecrated paper, a doll, or whatever you want to represent them both placed on it. Take a cord and attach the two objects with wax from both altar candles, or tie the cord around each object, leaving room in between to cut the cord. If you want a physical separation, use your Boline, or a pair of consecrated shears. If it is a spiritual disconnection you desire, this is one of those rare times I would cut the cord with my Athame. As you make the cut, say words that you have written, but which convey this meaning… Name1 and Name2 have been held together, but no more. The cord has been cut, and both are free to walk their own path. Thank any whose help you asked for. The objects used are only things now. Keep them or throw them away, makes no difference. Blessed be. Stay safe out there…

I’d consider the cord unbroken and repeat the spell. Maybe tie the cord higher up so it has a better chance to catch.

All it means is that your string is not flammable enough.
