I wanted to know where you got this from. DJ gave me the impression in his books that the less sex the better.
That may be true for some, but not for a 3 pronged nagual who saw he wouldn't accomplish his task
in his own lifetime.
My choice of words "smart move" is relative of course. I'm just saying he needed energy and sex is a "sad"
alternative to impeccability, but still practical to a degree.
"An empty man uses the completeness of a woman all the time," she went on. "A complete woman is dangerous in her completeness, more so than a man. She is unreliable, moody, nervous, but also capable of great changes. Women like that can pick themselves up and go anywhere. They'll do nothing there, but that's because they had nothing going to begin with. Empty people, on the other hand, can't jump like that anymore, but they're more reliable. The Nagual said that empty people are like worms that look around before moving a bit and then they back up and then they move a little bit more again. Complete people always jump, somersault and almost always land on their heads, but it doesn't matter to them."
I don't know where the quote is Cabbageman. You'll have to search it yourself unless someone else offers.
In googling, several people mention it. Maybe Florinda's book - she speaks of absinence for 7 years.
Here's a link that i didn't read but it should be in there somewhere.

If anyone thinks Carlos' actions were inappropriate, here is some context that doesn't make sex look so bad:
"Once she had killed you, your luminosity would have increased her power and she would then have come after us. I was the only one who knew that. Lidia, Josefina and Rosa love her. I don't. I knew what her designs were. She would have taken us one by one, in her own time, since she had nothing to lose and everything to gain. The Nagual said to me that there was no other way for her. He entrusted me with the girls and told me what to do in case Soledad killed you and came after our luminosity. He figured that I had a chance to save myself and to save perhaps one of the three. You see, Soledad is not a bad woman at all; she's simply doing what an impeccable warrior would do. The little sisters like her more than they like their own mothers. She's a real mother to them. That was, the Nagual said, the point of her advantage. I haven't been able to pull the little sisters away from her, no matter what I do. So if she had killed you, she would then have taken at least two of those three trusting souls. Then without you in the picture Pablito is nothing. Soledad would have squashed him like a bug. And then with all her completeness and power she would have entered into that world out there. If I had been in her place I would've tried to do exactly as she did."
