I came across this article that I find extremely fascinating and on some level makes allot of sense to me.

''Organic Portals Theory
Aristotle defined a slave as an "animated malleable instrument." This terrifying
description has never been more true than it is today, if applied to human
beings in general. The individual is merely an appendage and a sounding board
for the species. Homo sapiens is the same as other animal species: he has a
collective soul which regulates and directs the evolution of the human race. The
collective soul produces the migration of the birds, regulates reproduction,
directs different changes and adaptations, brings about periods of mating, and
in general, directs the instinctive behavior of the beasts. As he belongs to the
animal kingdom, sapiens is not free from this directing force which in effect
controls, directs, supervises, and regulates the species, acting as a common
brain, which stifles individual thought.
This common soul has been called the "collective unconscious" by Jung.
He did not talk of an "animal soul" but he certainly possessed this knowledge. This collective unconscious is in truth
the animal soul of sapiens. The mere fact of understanding, accepting, and
comprehending the significance of this subject means visualizing the most
important foundation of sapiens' life, because the bestial impulse acts as the
basic motive of its actions.''

'There are other forms of life as well as ours whose sphere of evolution impinges upon the
earth. In the realm of folk-lore we constantly meet with the idea of intercourse between
the human and the fairy kingdoms; of the marriage of a human being with a fairy spouse,
or the theft of a child by the fairies, an impish changeling being left in its place. We shall
be rash if we assume that an extensive body of folk-belief is entirely without foundation
in fact. Let us therefore examine these old and crude beliefs and see whether we can find
any grounds for them, and if so, what the real nature of the facts may be, and whether
they throw any light upon modem psychic phenomena of the kind we are considering in
these pages.
There are many of us who have met people who might well be described as non-human,
soulless, in that the ordinary human motives are not operative with them, nor do the
ordinary human feelings prompt or inhibit them. We cannot but love them, for they have
great charm, but we cannot but dread them as well, for they spread an infinitude of
suffering around them. Although seldom deliberately evil, they are singularly detrimental
to all with whom they come in contact. They, for their part, are unhappy and lonely in our
midst. They feel themselves to be alien and uncompanioned; every man’s hand is against
them, and in consequence it all too often happens that their hand is against everyone and
they develop a puckish malevolence, though there is seldom calculated evil-doing.
Gratitude, compassion, good faith, morality and common honesty are utterly foreign to
their natures, as far beyond their conception as the differential calculus. They are not
immoral, however, but simply non-moral. On the other hand, they possess the virtues of
absolute sincerity and great courage. In terms of human ethics they are “undesirables,”
but they have an ethic of their own to which they are loyal, and that is the beauty which is
truth, and this is all they know, and, as far as their life is concerned, all they need to
know. In appearance they are usually small and slight, possessing unusual physical
strength and endurance but very liable to nervous exhaustion and brain-storms. In social
relations they take violent likes and dislikes; they show a facile and demonstrative
affection towards those they like, but quickly forget them. Gratitude and pity are
unknown to their nature. Towards those they dislike they are pettily malicious, and in all
relations of life they are utterly irresponsible. One cannot describe them better than to say
that they resemble nothing so much as a blend of Persian kitten and pet monkey. They
have the beauty and aloofness and charm of the cat, and the amusing, mischievous
destructiveness of the monkey. Many human beings hate them at sight; others are
fascinated by them because they bring with them a sense of unearthly beauty and a
quickening of the life-forces. I have been able to investigate the history of two such
beings, and it is interesting to note that both of them were conceived while their mothers
were under the influence of drink. There is a very great deal of information available
concerning the occult aspect of the incarnation of souls, but not much of the knowledge
concerning the actual facts of conception has ever found its way into print. I have given a
little in my book, The Esoteric Philosophy of Love and Marriage. I cannot enter into the
subject deeply in these pages, for it would be too much of a digression. Some points,
however, it is essential to touch upon for a comprehensive survey of our subject.
