534. 'And upon her head a crown of twelve stars' signifies its wisdom and intelligence derived from cognitions of Divine Good and Divine Truth out of the Word. By 'a crown upon the head' is signified wisdom and intelligence (n. 189, 235, 252); by 'stars' are signified cognitions of Divine Good and Divine Truth out of the Word (n. 51, 420); and by 'twelve' are signified all things of the Church, which have relation to its good and truth (n. 348). Consequently by 'a crown of twelve stars upon the woman's head' is signified the wisdom and intelligence of the New Church derived from cognitions of Divine Good and Divine Truth out of the Word.
