6604. On several occasions an angel has appeared to me, with a clearly visible face that was constantly changing as different affections manifested themselves in him one after another in order, thus ranging from one limit of affection to the other. Yet the overall ruling affection remained, from which one could tell that it was the same angel. I was informed that the changes in his face were derived from the communities with which he was in contact and that these changes took place as that contact varied. First he would come in closer contact with one community than another and so on through all the communities in order. For the extension of thoughts and affections has its limits; in the remotest communities it disappears and trails off like sight lost in space. Within the limits of that general sphere thoughts and affections can vary. They are closer at one time to one community, at another time to another community, and when they are in among one community, all the other communities are off to the sides; and so on with every variation within those limits.
