689. CONTINUATION CONCERNING HORSES It is granted to know from the position of the horse what things are signified. When the hinder part is turned towards the face, it signifies that an inverted order of spiritual life has been induced by the sciences, so that faith is obliterated. It is otherwise, however, when the side or when the head is turned towards the face. It then signifies that those things which are from the Word of God Messiah are confirmed by means of the sciences. 1748, Feb. 9.
