he angels some of a simple, and some of
a wise character, and it is the part of the wise to judge, when the
simple, from their simplicity and ignorance, are doubtful about what is
just, or through mistake wander from it, 207. Every angel has conjugial
love with its virtue, ability, and delights, according to his
application to the genuine use in which he is, 207. Every man has angels
associated to him from the Lord, and such is his conjunction with them,
that if they were taken away, he would instantly fall to pieces, 404.
ANGER.--Why it is attributed to the Lord, 366.
ANIMALS.--Wonderful things conspicuous in the productions of animals,
416. Every animal is led by the love implanted in his science, as a
blind person is led through the streets by a dog, 96. See _Beasts_.
ANIMUS.--By _animus_ is meant the affections, and thence the external
inclinations, which are principally insinuated after birth by education,
social intercourse, and consequent habits of life, 246.
_Obs._--These affections and inclinations constitute a sort of inferior

antipathy in their internals, and an apparent sympathy in their
externals, 292. Antipathy derives its origin from the opposition of
spiritual spheres which emanate from subjects, 171.
ANTIQUITY.--Memorable things of antiquity seen in heaven amongst a
nation that lived in the copper age, 77.
AORTA, 315.
APES.--Of those in hell who appear like apes, 505.
APOCALYPSE.--A voice from heaven commanded Swedenborg to apply to the
work begun in the Apocalypse, and finish it within two years, 522, 532.
APOPLEXY.--Permanent infirmity, arising from apoplexy, a cause of
separation, 253, 470.
APPEARANCE.--Spaces in the spiritual world are appearances; distances,
also, and presences are appearances, 158. The appearances of distances
and presences there, are according to the proximities, relationships,
and affinities of love, 158. Those things which, from their origin, are
celestial and spiritual, are not in space, but in the appearances of
space, 158.
_Obs._--Those things which in the spiritual world are present to the
sight of spirits and angels are called _appearances_; those things are
