INTERSEXUAL DISGUISE AND THE ANDROGYNY OF THE GODS

Summary/Abstract: Through this work, we want to make a brief presentation of the gods' androgyny and the fact that for a short period of time, through intersexual disguise, man wishes to come into contact with the totality of divinity. Permanently, we will notice man's desire to get out of himself, and this is a way through which he transcends his historical condition, everything becoming a time out, aiming to find the state from the beginning, transhuman and transhistorical. Permanently, it is an attempt to return to the primordial balance which is attempted in different ways, such as: rites, marriage, orgies, intersex disguise, etc. The uniting of the opposites was a major element to the primitive people, becoming a way in which they desire fertility and abundance in crops. When we speak of individuality, when we can differentiate between masculine and feminine, when everything is identified and no longer is confused, there is a fall in primordial sin. We can talk about gender confusion in certain gods, they are represented in the male version, or too effeminate. Such bisexuality is found to all the peoples of the world. But in the oldest Greek theogonies, we notice feminine beings who procreate without men, in this case it is implicit androgynous. In many myths of the genesis, we will notice that divinity arises from itself, being self-sufficient. We will also present examples of deities that oscillate between the two sexes: Consus and Ops, Faunus and Fauna, Free and Free, Ruminus and Rumina, Cacus and Caca, Caeculus and Caecilia, etc. The confusion of primordial principles cancels the exile of the principles that have been separated. The androgyne, as a total being, has a privileged state, a state that man had only at the beginning, because in most cultures the primordial man was an androgyne, and in all the ways used by the human being, we notice the desire to recover itself in total form. In this sense, we will use the coincidental oppositorum theory.
