    The Art of Gematria

    Gematria is a form of numerology that assigns numerical values to letters and uses those values to interpret religious or biblical texts. It originated with the teachings of Pythagoras, who believed that numbers underlie all things. There are three main forms of numerology: Kabbalah, Chaldean, and Pythagorean. Numerology can be used for personal insight by analyzing numbers associated with one's name and birthdate. Different cultures have traditionally ascribed symbolic meanings to certain numbers like seven, which is often used to represent divine concepts. While numerology can be entertaining, one's fate is ultimately self-determined rather than predicted by numbers alone.

    The key takeaways are that numerology is the study of symbolic meanings of numbers, and it can be traced back to Pythagoras and his belief that numbers represent all things in the universe. Different forms of numerology include Kabbalah, Chaldean, and Pythagorean systems.

    The different forms of numerology discussed are Kabbalah (Hebrew mysticism), Chaldean, and Pythagorean numerology. Each system has its own interpretations of numbers and the alphabet.

    Numerology attempts to reveal things about individuals like their personality traits, career prospects, relationships, and ability to predict future events, by assigning numerical values to their names and birth dates.

    What is Gematria

    Gematria, also known as numerology, is the calculation


    of the numerical equivalence of letters, words or
    phrases, and their relationship between words and
    ideas. There are different uses for numerology. One
    major use is for religious or biblical interpretations, and
    another use is for personal readings.
    History of Numerology
    Numerology can be traced back to the
    teachings of Pythagoras. The Pythagoreans
    had mysterious ideas about the univerese
    and numbers. They believed that all notions
    could be reduced to number relations all
    things are numbers. This generalization
    came from observing music, mathematics,
    and astronomy.
    Different Kinds of Numerology
    The three major forms of numerology are:
    Kabbalah (Hebrew Mysticism Alphaet),
    Chaldean, and the Pythogrean. Each form has
    its own ideas and interpretations of numbers
    and the alphabet. Some people believe that by
    assigning numbers to their names and using
    birth date person can learn more about
    themselves, their career, relationships and even
    prophesize future events.
    Number Symbology
    Some cultures and religions put
    certain meaning to specific
    numbers. For instance the
    number seven, in the Bible or
    other sacred books is used to
    symbolize a mysterious God
    force. Ex: creation took seven
    days, the seven thrones, the seven
    seals, seven churches (hills), the
    seven Devas of the Hindus
    Bible, The seven angels of
    Chaldeans, the seven
    Amschaspands of Persian faith,
    the seven Sephiroth of the
    Hebrew cabala, ect. ect.

    Here is an axample of basic numerology, using the Pythagorean chart.
    First assign a number to each letter, and then add up all of the numbers. If
    you have multiple didits, just keep adding until you have one number.

    As a final note, numerology
    can add a little fun to a rainy day, as
    long as its all done for entertainment.
    Each person is the master of their
    own fate, and has the right to choose
    how they live their life. Numbers
    only have the power that you give
    them. You can read what you want to
    read in certain numbers and
    predictions.
