636. WHO SPIRITS ARE AND WHAT THEIR QUALITY IS CAN ALSO BE KNOWN FROM THE QUARTERS When spirits and angels act, whether from afar or nearby, it could be known where they were, or in what quarter in relation to my face, howsoever my face was turned, for directions are taken from the face. Those who are at the right hand side, obliquely towards the front, are good; those who are obliquely towards the left are evil. Hence, beneath at a distance to the left is Gehenna. Towards the front, a little more to the right, is the lake. Beneath the feet is the earth of lower things. Towards the left is hell. Above the head are those who are proud, and who raise themselves on high by phantasy; the higher they are, the more haughty are they. They are there also arranged according to quarters.
