485. BESIDES PARTICULAR INFLUXES THERE ARE ALSO GENERAL INFLUXES I spoke today with evil and good spirits about general and particular influx, as to affection of any kind, evil and good, namely, that there are myriads, and indeed many myriads, thus the whole heaven of spirits and angels, which cause the general influx. But there are certain particular influxes around every single man which are the subjects of the general influxes. These subjects receive from the general and are similar because they correspond. Thus all spirits and all angels are, in particular, centers of influxes, and such as they are, such is the influx they receive and communicate to man. Man, in like manner, is the center of corresponding influxes. This can be perceived naturally from very many things in nature, both atmospheric and animal. 1748, Jan. 17. The angels were in agreement.
