Arcana Coelestia (Potts) n. 9721

9721. From it shall be its horns. That this signifies that the power shall be from good, is evident from the signification of "the altar," from which the horns were to be, as being a representative of the Lord, and of the worship of Him from the good of love (see n. 9714); and from the signification of "horns," as being power (n. 9719). From this it is evident that by "the horns being from it" is signified that the power shall be from good. (That in the spiritual world all power is of good through truth, see n. 6344, 6423, 9643.)
