Hi Earthling! Can you be more specific as to what is unclear to you after referencing the definitions for these words?

Have you looked up each word in a dictionary? What did you find? What are the differences between the two definitions? When using either word abstractly, you're using it as a metaphor, so there's no right or wrong, there's simply the particular sense you wish to convey. NB interwind is uncommon...

I can find "intertwined" in more dictionaries than "interwind" (which my spell-check flags up as wrong), but a quick lookup on Merriam-Webster reveals
interwind (verb)
intertwine, intervolve
and on dictionary.com
interwind (verb)
to wind together; intertwine.
In conclusion, they are interchangeable in meaning, but "intertwined" appears to be more frequently used.
