Have you ever heard of this before? Yes, i have. Presumeably what you are describing is an eyes-closed meditation (with or without coition or masturbation) in which you have the proprioceptive sense that your body is that of the opposite gender. Both my partner and i have expereinced the same thing, an apparant gender reversal, sometimes while alone (e.g. in meditation with or without masturbation), sometimes both at the same time (e,g, while in coitus). We have also experienced a number of other proprioceptive sense-blurrings, including the sensation that we are one being, that that we are each other's bodies, and that our bodies are mingled into each other at a molecular level. Depending on what your objectives are during meditation, you can use these proprioceptive inversions and ambiguities for your benefit or dismiss them as distracting. catherine yronwode Sacred Sex: http://www.luckymojo.com/sacredsex.html check out news:alt.lucky.w for discussions on folk magic and luck
