GOLD

A symbol of spiritual qualities of the buddhic plane. Divine Wisdom; celestial Truth. The endowments of the soul which are above the mental plane. The “treasures in heaven.”

“And the city was pure gold, like unto pure glass” - REV. xxi. 18.

And the higher state of consciousness was on the buddhic plane whereon Wisdom and Truth were clearly perceived.

“And what does he (the Psalmist) call gold, saving wisdom; of which Solomon saith, A treasure to be desired lieth at rest in the mouth of the wise (PROV. xxi. 20.)? That is, he saw wisdom as gold, and therefore called it a treasure: and she is well designated by the name of ‘gold,’ for that, as temporal goods are purchased with gold, so are eternal blessings with wisdom.” - GREGORY THE GREAT, Morals on the Book of Job, Vol. I. p. 228.

“Gold signifies the good of love.” - SWEDENBORG, Apocalypse Revealed, n. 913.
