132. Since angels in heaven all have the Lord as the sun-thus the east-in front of them, it follows that to their right is the south, to their left the north, and to their rear the west, and this continually in whatever direction they turn their body. For as we said before, all points of the compass in the spiritual world are determined in relation to the east. Consequently those for whom the east is before their eyes are in these zones-indeed, they are themselves what determine them; for as we showed above in nos. 124-128, the zones are not created by the Lord as the sun, but by the angels in accordance with their reception.
