3344. There are also visual auras, distinct from those auras pertaining to odor. I experienced a visual aura before I knew what an aura is, namely, an aura of grace, like a golden yellow atmosphere reddening when it was one of mercy. And in that aura I then saw that there was grace, when it was also one of mercy.
3344. Visual spheres also occur, distinct from those which belong to odor. A visual sphere was previously perceived by me, before I knew what a sphere [was], to wit: a sphere of grace, as it were, a golden-yellow atmosphere, which was reddish when [it pertained] to mercy; and I perceived that grace was then in that sphere, when it was [pertained to] also of mercy.
3344.
