Here is a twist to this that I came to realize this winter. You don't have to know a thing about moving energy, the orbit or any of this Taoist stuff to get this to work. I studied Jin Shin Do last fall at massage school. You hold two points on the client and just wait. Over time, here is an energy shift, the kind of shift depends on what points were being held. I don't know where you are in your understanding of this but, here it goes, the compressed version. There are 12 meridians which run energy through them on a time schedule (stomach meridian is active from 7:00AM to 9:00AM for instance) There are another set of energy channels called the eight psychic channels or strange flows which connect the 12 meridians They serve to bring balance to the system. If there is too much chi in one place the strange flow channels will redistribute it. The Microcosmic orbit is made up of two of these channels, one up the spine and anther down the front. If you hold points on these strange flows it speeds up this balancing effect. That's how Jin Shin Do works.

I discovered quite by accident BEFORE taking the class, that if I place the left palm (receiving hand) on my pubic hairs and the right palm on my chest (giving hand) and lay like this on my back, after about 10 minutes, I would feel a shift in my energy like something just opened and then the rest of the time I lay there I feel energy zipping around my body. Holding those two places opened up the orbit. Then I took the class in school and found out why I was experiencing this shift.

Here's the tie in! When just laying quietly in intercourse, and kissing, two points are being held onto and the same thing is happening. This opens up the orbit, except, this time the two orbits, one for each lover, becomes connected and allows a free exchange of energy between them, like a super highway for energy flow between them. This is why holding in Sacred sex works so well at balancing the male-female energies. I had to figure this out because people who write books on this are masters and it is easy for them to forget that we normal people don't get it yet. When I stumbled across Karezza, a lot of lose pieces of the Taoist puzzle fell into place. And now I can see where they were trying to teach it, but fell short of getting it to sink into my head.

One more interesting bit of info---Reflexology is based on the fact that there are miniature maps of the body located on various places, like on the bottom of the feet, the ears, hands, irises, and even the tongue. The sex organs also have these maps. The tip of the penis and all the way down the shaft has places that connect directly to all the parts of the body. Like wise, the vaginal channel has places that connect to all the parts of the body. And what would you know, if the penis is inserted in the vagina, the places match so that the man/s heart spot near the tip matches the woman's heart spot which is deep in. All the reflexology places match between the male and female sex organs which allows a very effective energy exchange between them.
