As we are moving into Virgo, I was reading Practical Astrology. I came across an interesting section by Master Samael that I hope an instructor could elaborate more on, "The natives of Virgo and of Scorpio are together the marvellous Eden of which the Bible talks to us about...Virgo, the sign of the celestial virgin and Scorpio, the sign of the sexual forces, together, are really that marvelous Eden the Bible talks to us about. This is the paradise of virgin men; this is the paradise of the perfect androgyne. This is the Eden the Bible talks about. Eden is sex itself."
As far as I understand the gateway back into Eden is through sexual alchemy, maintaining supreme chastity. Does one enter back into Eden upon developing the solar bodies or is that entering back into the absolute? Does Master Samael mean a unique type of connection that is between these two signs? I read also Virgo and Scorpio were esoterically one sign anciently when there were only 10, so is that why Samuel refers to them as the perfect androgyne? Is he saying that these two signs are the perfect complement to each other? Even if this were the case, I would think very few are those who deserve as much due to the Karma for such a union.
Last part of the question: on the Rose Cross there is INRI on a star behind it, on the letter I is the sign for Virgo on the letter N is the sign of Scorpio. These two are the only zodiacal signs on the cross.
Igne Natura Renovatur Integra- I understand this to refer to the renewal through the sexual fires in alchemy. Could you please explain why those two signs and why for those particular letters?
As a native of Scorpio trying to know myself more, any enlightenment of this topic would be greatly appreciated.

We enter back into Eden through resurrection (especially with the body of liberation). Scorpio is the power of Samael in sex, which produces genuine virgins (initiates of Virgo) through chastity. We become perfect androgynes through resurrection, whereby the human soul (through Scorpio-sex) unites with the Virgin (Virgo, divine soul). Virgo works through Ignis, the fire that makes us Virgin and clean, and Scorpio the powers of Nature, Nun, the sperm or ovum, which resurrect the initiate conquering the fatal sting of death.
Joyful in hope, suffering in tribulation, be thou constant in thy prayer.
Benedictis, qui venit in nomine Domini. Osanna in excelsis.
"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!"
