Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 9861

Previous Number Next Number Next Translation See Latin 

9861. Foursquare it shall be, doubled. That this signifies what is righteous and perfect, is evident from the signification of "foursquare," as being what is righteous (see n. 9717). That it also means what is perfect, is because it was doubled, and that which is doubled involves all things of good and all things of truth. That which is on the right side involves the good from which is truth, and that which is on the left side involves the truth which is from good (n. 9495, 9604, 9736), thus the perfect conjunction of both is involved. It is also from this that "two" signifies conjunction (n. 8423), and also each and all things (n. 9166), as likewise what is full (n. 9103).
