809. These people in the other life are apparently compatible with many [groups], for they do almost nothing else but promote what I may call harmonious movements of spirits. They can almost be called lubricants, because they facilitate [these movements], especially where some passion has not become deeply rooted. Among these there are both demons and spirits, as well as intermediate types. Thus they are as it were mixers, which struck me as being connectors; but they are mixers, for promoting the flowing movements of spirits.
