'Ψυχικοί' refers to things that are natural, unspiritual, or related to the soul, often implying a contrast with the spiritual. It describes something that is merely human or governed by natural instincts. 'Καί' is a common conjunction meaning 'and', but it can also be used to mean 'also', 'even', 'indeed', or 'but', depending on the context. Together, 'ψυχικοί καί' would mean 'natural and' or 'unspiritual and', connecting two ideas or elements.
