Consensual sex as an energetic exchange channel — the mutual "openness and surrender" of intercourse lowers the normal boundary between two people's energy fields, allowing an entity attached to one partner to transfer to the other.
Sexual abuse as a forced opening — Baldwin states that "sexual abuse such as rape, incest, molestation of any sort creates vulnerability to spirit invasion," and that "violence during sexual abuse increases the likelihood of intrusion by an opportunistic spirit," making trauma a more acute, forced version of the same vulnerability seen in consensual exchange.

Cassiopaean and similar frameworks that recast "mind" and information as structurally prior to matter.
Mesopotamian omen cataloguing and āšipu practice: knowledge as a living, constantly updated, pragmatic discipline.
Cassiopaean "Knowledge protects" plus "knowledge is power; if we give it to you like Halloween candy, it is diffused": knowledge must be earned, tested, integrated, or it doesn't protect.
