205. There is an association of all in heaven in accordance with spiritual affinities, which are those of good and truth in their order. It is so in the whole heaven, in each society and in each house. Because of this, angels who are in like good and truth recognize each other, as relatives by blood and marriage do on the earth, just as if they had known each other from infancy. The goods and truths which, in the case of any one angel, make his wisdom and intelligence, are associated in like manner. They recognize each other in like manner and as they recognize each other they join themselves together.# In consequence, those in whom truths and goods are joined in accordance with the form of heaven see things following one after another in a series, and see how they cohere round about, far and wide. It is otherwise with those in whom goods and truths are not conjoined in accordance with the form of heaven. # Good acknowledges its own truth, and truth its own good (n. 2429, 3101, 3102, 3161, 3179, 3180, 4358, 5407, 5835, 9637); and hence is the conjunction of good and truth (n. 3834, 4096, 4097, 4301, 4345, 4353, 4364, 4368, 5365, 7623-7627, 7752-7762, 8530, 9258, 10555); for this is from the influx of heaven (n. 9079).
