AE 1076 [2]
Every angel and person is his own love,
and a sphere flowing out from his love
encompasses every person and angel.
That sphere consists of the good of his love
and of the truth of his love,
for love produces both,
as fire produces both heat and light;
from the will of a person or angel it produces good,
and from his understanding it produces truth.
This sphere, when the person or angel is good,
has an extension into the heavens in every direction
according to the quality and the amount of the love,
and into the hells in every direction
when the person or angel is evil.
But the sphere of the love of a person or an angel
has a finite extension into a few societies only of heaven or hell,
while the sphere of the Lord's love,
because it is Divine,
has an infinite extension,
and creates the heavens themselves.
