Channeling sexual energy

The best way to handle it is by channeling it through the Natural Path—man-to-woman or vice versa.
If you try to redirect that energy without some actual master watching your every move, you're just asking for trouble.

You can certainly manipulate sexuality to trigger it, but in any normal day-to-day scenario—including sex—Kundalini usually stays dormant. I wouldn't recommend messing around with this at all, especially if you think you can just wing it. Honestly, the negative outcomes tend to outweigh the positives. Of course, that assumes we're looking at this through the lens of Kundalini theory rather than seeing it as a psychological issue caused by suppressing sexuality or other similar mechanisms. Awakening Kundalini through specific physical exercises often sits right between extreme asceticism and suppression on one hand, and ecstatic, over-emotional spirituality on the other. In any case, you risk a massive "shaking" of the nervous system, creating intense Vata imbalances. It can get dangerous fast if you don't know what you're doing, lack a solid foundation, or don't have the right guidance, environment, and support systems in place.

While any spiritual practice carries a risk of triggering this process—and it can happen spontaneously or due to chaotic life events without any warning—I don't see any reason to force it. Not unless you have a broad, clear perspective on what you're actually doing and access to decent guidance.

Can you explain these two types of spirituality?

I was reading 'The Golden Dawn' by Samael Aun Weor, and he covers this topic quite extensively. Basically, you shouldn't ever let the seed—the essence within the Hermetic vessel or Holy Grail—be wasted. 😁
Similarly, awakening the Kundalini isn't some mechanical process. You need a pure heart and clear thoughts. It involves intimacy with someone you truly love, where the Hermetic seals of the spinal column are opened through seed vapors, clearing the path for the "serpent" and so on.
As wild as these ideas might sound, they actually make sense when you look at sexual transmutation—turning raw animalistic energy into creative power. It’s a known fact that many of history's greatest geniuses practiced celibacy. For instance, Michelangelo once remarked that what he couldn't give to a woman, he gave to his sculptures. 😁

We have to remember that Hermes is a teacher, yes, but he is also a master of illusion; that is simply part of his craft...

Let's take a moment to really consider the nature of Hermes. If you approach texts like these as if they were rigid, unchangeable laws, you're essentially hitting a dead end. You need to question everything, live through the experiences, and then draw your own conclusions. To believe blindly in ancient texts isn't Gnosis—that's just dogma.

And please, don't lose sight of the essential union: HERMES + APHRODITE = HERMAPHRODITE.
