You talked about Xena and Gabrielle representing the dark in the light for each other.
Did you notice that in their little dance that they were depicted as ‘Yin’ and ‘Yang’ yet again? Just the way the costumes worked with the colouring. Okay, I guess flesh isn’t white so to speak but you see what I’m saying. It was intentional.
If you look up some snapshots of it from the production you’ll see what I mean.
Lined up with each other they display the yin-yang symbol.

With the sins of the flesh coursing through their veins. With the dark pigment of their blood flowing to the mind and heart - they immediately attract each other and embrace as only lovers before the lovemaking would do.
As for Gabrielle and Virgil - I take in the fact she was drunk at the time and wasn’t thinking clearly.

Gabrielle: The original cockblock
After a fight with Archangel Michael and Rafael, who tried to throw Xena into the portal to Hell, Xena and Lucifer had a little celebratory moment in their haze of lust. A jealous Gabrielle throws a shirt at her wife’s head in an attempt to get her attention. I do love it when the ‘Green-eyed Monster’ shows up to thwart Xena’s bisexual tendencies. It is highly entertaining! I love how Gabrielle shoots Lucifer a death glare and he smirks. So funny!
Xena is a seductress and Gabrielle is a green-eyed beast

Xena and Gabrielle’s erotic dance from ‘Heart Of Darkness’. They’re drawn to each other like a moth to a flame. I wish it could have been a little longer. But those damn censors. They never let us have anything explicit.
“Evil, the dark side. It’s intoxicating, isn’t it?”
“Oh, yeah… it’s intoxicating”
This is probably the gayest and most explicit episode of the whole show. I mean I would say this is the gayest episode, but then there's 'When Fates Collide'...
And yet some people still think they weren't screwing. That's two women that know each other's bodies well to be able to draw that kind of response from each other.

Yeah that is gross being attracted to an identical look alike of your own mother.

Being attracted to Gabrielle, I can understand. But I don't know why Virgil was so eager to romance Xena as well. She looks exactly like his mother! XD
Anyway, even though it wasn't in the most healthy of contexts, we can see quite clearly that this season is moving back towards what I consider the best part of the show: focusing on Xena and Gabrielle's intense and sometimes sensual love for each other!
