"Given the eclectic and constantly shifting nature of my metaphysical inclinations, I will probably never feel certain exactly what an angel is"

- Martha Beck

About this Quote

Martha Beck's quote speaks to the complexity of the metaphysical world and the problem of determining a single meaning of what an angel is. It suggests that the nature of metaphysical beliefs is constantly changing and developing, and that it is impossible to be certain of any one definition. This quote shows the idea that metaphysical beliefs are subjective and individual, which each person's understanding of the esoteric world is unique. It also indicates that it is not needed to have a concrete meaning of an angel in order to believe in them, and that it is possible to have a meaningful relationship with the esoteric realm without having a clear understanding of it. Ultimately, this quote encourages us to accept the mystery of the metaphysical world and to accept that our understanding of it is ever-changing.
