Levi on Sexuality
"The Astral Body is not always of the same sex as the terrestrial, that is, the pro- portions of the two forces, varying from right to left, seem frequently to belie the visible organization, producing seeming aberrations of human passion and explaining, while in no wise morally justifying, the amorous peculiarities of Ana- creon or Sappho. A skilful magnetizer should take all these subtle distinctions into account, and we shall provide in our “Ritual” the rules for their recognition."
-Eliphas Levi, D&R
This is sort of interesting, isn't it?
This idea caused a lot of problems for me when I saw it in theory. It didn't really fit with my view of gender and sexuality, as it assumes a certain static identity in a place where I saw fluidity. These days, I'm not so sure...
