G-d, 280, and Life vs Anti-Life


In casual conversation with an acquaintance, he stated rather astutely, "Judaism is a death-cult". In  very real way, such a statement rings of profound truths.  Henry Makow, himself Jewish, commented much to the same on a recent interview on Inside the Eye - Live!.  But I hold that what lies behind Judaism is not a "death cult", but more accurately an "anti-life" force, something that represents a complete void of all life.

Surely something as sinister as this exists?

Why else this seeming war on humanity, and even the planet itself?  Geo-engineering (chemtrails), genetically modified foods that prove to be harmful to living organisms, the proliferation of industry at the expense of environmental concerns are but a few.  We live in a "pack" age, or perhaps we are part of a "pack" age, where our very existence requires the movement of goods to be packaged, and as a result, something always remains behind that for lack of a better terms, becomes "garbage" and "refuse".

Never mind that language, properly crafted, reveals and conceals concurrently.  A "garb" is a covering, an outward appearance.  Or, a garb can be used to mask intentions.  Either way, a garb is that which presents itself on the outside, covering for what is on the inside.  Thus in the word "garbage", we find too that we live in a "garb age", where even the human form hides the inner essence of what the real nature of the spirit residing within.

In the word "REFUSE", with an accent on the first syllable, we have  a noun akin to "trash", but if we shift the accent to the second syllable, we have a verb akin to "not accept".  Hence "REFUSE" and "TO REFUSE" are essentially the same, for what is "garbage" is precisely what has been "refused".

Technically speaking, REFUSE is comprised of "GARBAGE" and "RUBBISH".  Since GARBAGE is essentially "biodegradable" such as "food stuffs", we can argue now that food itself is a "GARB" that covers the inner essence, and even spiritual nature, of the food in question, while "RUBBISH" is that which is inanimate, as glass, wood, paper products etc.  Hence one can "rub", or touch that which has become "rubbish", with the "ish" reminding us that what remains is in a "sorta state".  After all, what you would otherwise "rub" is, too, refused, and hence is "rubbish".

All of this is, of course, a digression.

Judaism as an Anti-Life Force - Ancient Records to Contemporary Times



Such a title sounds like the makings of a book, and indeed, to the ambitious out there, such a book could easily be found.  However, we begin this story with the Epic of Gilgamesh.  In this tale, the god Enlil brings on the Deluge in an effort to destroy all life on Earth.

From Tablet XI, we read,
Just then Enlil arrived. He saw the boat and became furious, he was filled with rage at the Igigi gods: 'Where did a living being escape? No man was to survive the annihilation!' - source
What clearer words do you need?  The "god" that brought on "Flood" or "Deluge", who would later go on to become the "god of the Jews" sought to bring about an "annhilation", a complete void life.  It does not get any more explicit than that, but what would follow would be a trail of tears befitting the phonetic root of the word "Torah" - tears, terror, rot.

Jews as a people have been a murderous lot from the time of their "escape" from Egypt, if indeed their tales are to be believed.  Worse, they take divine inspiration to murder and do so without human remorse or apology and have done so since they first burst on to the historical scene.

The LORD our God delivered him before us; and we smote him, and his sons, and all his people. And we took all his cities at that time, and utterly destroyed the men, and the women, and the little ones, of every city, we left none to remain. Deuteronomy 2:33-34
These are not a people you can "reason with", for at the core of their spiritual essence is a belief that they are commanded to murder and destroy,

And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them. Deuteronomy 7:16
Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword. Deuteronomy 13:15

But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth. Deuteronomy 20:16-17

Nothing that breatheth.  Not just a death-cult, but an anti-Life cult.

From the organized slaughter and plunder of Russia to the more subtle, but not so hidden plunder and destruction of the United States today, where Jews are found is found a trail of tears.  What was "Communist Russia" was really not "Russia", but more accurately "Judaism".

In 1935, the most famous rabbi in America, Rabbi Stephen Wise, one so powerful and prestigious that he hung out, so to speak, with President Roosevelt, boldly stated,
“Some call it Marxism, I call it Judaism.” (The American Bulletin, May 5,1935) - source
Make no mistake about what is before us today.  Cultural Marxism, "feminism", the globo-homo agenda, vaccines, and much more are all rooted in the subversive anti-Life force that lies at the heart of Judaism and for all its proclamations, only cognitive dissonance prevents people from peering into the face of what could be viewed as a literal evil.

Conceptual Representations of Duality 




One must build one's Qaballistic knowledge from a word to a word, from a concept to a concept such that one is able to glimpse into an apperception of the conceptual, that lightning flash of inspiration that lights up the night sky, allows you to see what surrounds you before you are immersed again into utter darkness while whipped by storms that brew all around you.

In the Letters F and V, we have discussed in detail the DREIDLE as a 3 dimensional prop that hides underlying Qabbalistic knowledge that hearkens all the way back to the tale of the Garden of Eden and the Flaming Sword and Cherub.  The Letter F is the top of the dreidle, while the Letter V is the tip of the dreidle.

The Letter V in this conceptual representation represents "death".  It is the Hebrew Letter VAV (ו)

The numerical equivalent of the vav is six. Six represents connection, exemplified by the angels in Ezekiel’s vision, whose six wings enabled them to soar to unite and connect with G‑d. - source
Never mind the utter obvious, that the Letter VaV screams of the Letter V.  The tale of the Ka rising up to join the gods, or of angels taking the dead away to be with "God" or "Jesus", are all embed into this transpositional tale that provides the garb for the letter vav (ו), states of existence that are brought about following one's death.

That we bury people six feet under acutely reminds us that "6" is intricately linked to death.

On the other side of the dreidle is a square, which is at the top of the dreidle.  The square is the swastika, itself comprised of 4 F's, representing LIFE in that 6*6*6*6 = 1296, or the Letter LIF(e).

This is a conceptual that presents us with a representation of duality.  One side, or end point, represents the polar opposite of the other.

This conceptual representation of duality can be viewed in the 6 and its sum, 21, but I will leave that for you to contemplate and discern on your own.

G-d, 280, and LIFE



Symbols, and thus Letters, hold within them numerous permutations of meaning.  "Meaning" must be interpreted in coordination with contextual clues.

Just as the dreidle encodes the duality of Life (FFFF) and Death (V), we can craft formulas in mathematics that present the same duality.  Perhaps it is written as thus: G-d (as Death) and 9! as Life.

It works as thus.

All life we can equate to the 9 numbers.  Traditionally, numbers are "summed", or added one on top of the other.  Thus we say that B is comprised of the 1 and the 3 as B is located at number 2 and the ∑1:2 = 3.

However, if we factorialize the 9 numbers, we could equate this to the TOP of the dreidle, or LIFE, while the removal of LIFE from this equation should equate to Jews and their "god", or G-d.  In the formula G-d, we have the 7 (G) and the 4 (d).  Traditionally, again, SUM the numbers:

G = 7; ∑1:7 = 28
D = 4; ∑1:4 = 10

28 X 10 = 280

Thus 280 is our NUMBER of DEATH, a sign of Jews and their "god".  The opposite of this (duality) should now be a process of "adding" LIFE,  through a process of multiplication.  LIFE is 1296 (6*6*6*6), and so 280 * 1296 = 362880.

Now we Factorialize the 9 digits, which means we multiple 1 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 5 x 6 x 7 x 8 x 9 = 362880.

In this way we can show that 9! = 362880 = LIFE and the conceptual opposite would be to divide by a series of 6's such that it can be divisible no more.  Such a process would appear as thus:

362880/6/6/6/6 = 280

Thus we show that G-d itself is a symbol for DEATH.

Seeing too that the formula G-d removes the "sacred feminine" via the Letter O, and we are left with a form of "globo-homo" representation such that cannot bring life and whose proliferation and acceptance can only bring annihilation and death.

The Sepher Yetzirah - The Vowels

The sounds that comprise speech are paired into two categories: open and closed - the vowels and consonants, and the voice and unvoiced.

In the article article "The Sepher Yetzirah, Setting Number to Letter", we began a comprehensive understanding of sound as they are being set to number in English.   What we learned is that the unvoiced letters, the unaspirated, are set at precise locations in the Alphabet.  Counting forward, the numbers are 3,6 and 11.  The letters placed at 11, the K and X, share design similarities, while the X contains within it sounds from the C, K, and S.  The number 11 is unique in that it is -3 from the end of the half of the Alphabet.

Since each half of the Alphabet is 13 letters in length, counting in reverse, the 11(forward) is the 3rd letter in reverse.  We may say that the unvoiced, or the anaspirated, are intricately linked to the 3, while the Letter T, itself unvoiced, yet rarely invoked as being so, is placed at 4.  You may try to discern precisely why this is so should you care to "know theyself", but we will address this later.


In a manner of speaking, we begin to see a binary pattern forming.  We can place consonants, or the closed, as a 1, and the vowels, which are open, as a 0.  We can then divide the Alphabet in half which then reveals that the letters A and N would each be placed at the number 1.  A is open and N is closed.  Why is this of interest?  Because we begin to see a pattern of speech where the ARTICLES of speech, the words A, AN, and THE, are really working on a principle of opening and closing.

The OPEN letters, the Vowels, are A, E, I, O, and U.  If the noun starts with a vowel (open), we use the article that is closed (AN), thus creating a sequence of "closed-open" or "open-closed".  We ONLY use A and AN if the noun is a SINGLE unit, or 1, and of course, A and AN are both located at number 1.  If this sounds etheric, it is not.

There is A (OPEN) Bird (CLOSED) on the wall.  A is open, the letter B of Bird is closed.
There is AN ELEPHANT in the room.  The N of AN is CLOSED, while the E of Elephant is OPEN.

OPEN - CLOSED = 0 1
CLOSED - OPEN = 1 0

We may view the placement of the VOWELS in two distinct patterns:

1 -5 -9, ⅀ 1:5, and ⅀ 1:6.  These correspond to the Letters A, E, I, O, and U, respective.

In the first 9 digits (A - I), these can be reversed so that the I, placed at 9, is 1, equally, which is preserved well enough in the Roman numbering system.

Now we must make a philosophical, reasoned inquiry.

Is 10 simply another 0?  Actually, it is.  There are 9 digits plus 0.  If we then allow for the J of 10 to be another 0 start point, then the Letters O and U are actually set at 5 (0) and 1 (U).  Thus, if you set the Alphabet into a sets of 10, with the 0 being the start point, the 10 and 20 become 0's, the vowels then are set at essentially two logical places: 1 and 5, as the letter U would be 1 and the "sometimes vowel Y" would be set also at 5.

This would imply that the Letter Z would also be a 0 start point, for in reverse, the Z zero start point would, in reverse, make the Y a 1 and the U a 5.

The VOWELS, we may now surmise, just as the unvoiced letters which take the number placement 3, are set at precise integers, namely the 1 and the 5,with the 9 taken also by the letter I, which is itself 1.

Once the Alphabet is placed into its PHONETIC matrix, which I termed "The Isisian Codes", we now see that the vowels indeed fall back into these exact number patterns, equally.

The Letter U, which could be said to have a value of 1, is always paired with the Letter Q, which is, itself, placed at location number 1.  The Letter U also returns back to the placement of Number 5, while the letter Y, which would have 1 start point if we allow for a ZERO Z start point, is placed with the Letter I, which itself is a number 1 and 9 equally.

The Letter Z disappears.  It is ZERO.  Perhaps the word ZERO is telling us that Z is R(our) 0.

The Letter O and U become co-relative viewed letters relative to number in that ⅀ 1:5 is 15, the placement of the Letter O, which then may be viewed as its co-relative 5 within the formula ⅀ 1:5.  Even if we were to write the formula as ⅀ 1:O, which would then be ⅀ 1:O (15), the total comes to 105.

No matter.  If we hand the number 15 to a "numerologist",, they will add 1+5 and arrive at 6, the letters placement in the Isisian Codes.  If we provide them with the number 105, they will still arrive at 6, even as it is ⅀ 1:5.

Equally, the Letter U placed at 21 (⅀ 1:6), but if we were to use the formula ⅀ 1:U (21), the value is 231.  We can then give this to a "numerologist", who will add the digits 2+3+1 and return it back to a 6, but as we see above, using Z as a start (O) point, the Letter U returns back to 5.

If we say the word THE, the E takes on the sound of the Letter U, as in UNDER, it takes on the value of 5, or E, while if we use the Letter U as a long vowel (its name U), as in UNION, the sound takes on the Letter Y as to say younion, which then is either a 1 in reverse using the Letter Z as a ZERO START POINT, or a 5, if we use the 20 as a ZERO START POINT.

Again.  No matter.  We have shown that the vowels are NOT randomly placed, but placed, as the unvoiced or unaspirated letters, at precise mathematical points in the Alphabet.

The Sepher Yetzirah - Setting Number to Letter


As discussed in the article "The Sepher Yetzirah - A Pseudo-linguistic Treatise", the Sepher Yetzirah clearly lays out that early Occultists were engaged in a study of the linguistic properties of language and how sounds and their accompanying letter representations  demonstrate models of hardness and softness (voiced and unvoiced), contain in many cases multiple sounds, or are paired to form hard and soft variations of the same sound.

In this article, we will discuss the fusion of letter to number and how this was done within the English Alphabet.

Modern usage of Letters as Numbers often to do not incorporate the idea of sound, or phonetics,  as being an integral component of the Alphabet.  However, the Devanagari script of the Hindi indeed includes such a construction.  When applied to Gematria, the Devanagari script assigns number to each syllable.  Thus a consonant and its accompanying vowel receives a specific digit.
It is interesting to observe that ancient Indian Mathematicians preferred Devanagari alphabet to numerals in representing large numbers. They used a code language to represent the digits of the numbers. This, they did, not for secrecy but to facilitate memorizing. They encoded numbers in the form of sutras or verses which made them easy to be memorized even for small children. - source
This cipher is known as the "Aryabhata Code" 

When applying this code to the A Hymn to Agni

As the Indian author Jain as revealed, Sanskrit is a multi-layered mathematical coding system.
As he explains it,
Similar to numerology, by ascribing the values of numbers to consonant letters as in A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, D = 4, but in Sanskrit, the Vedic Numerical Code was so sophisticated that it possessed 3 layers and therefore triple meanings.
It turns out that decimal form of the transcendental number:
Pi = 3.1415926535897932384626433832792 etc was hidden or codified in these following syllables, by chanting: "Gopi Bhagyamaduv rata Shringishodadi Sandiga Kala Jeevitarava Tava Galaddhalara Sangara" (Observing the top line, "go" = 3, "pi" = 1, "bha = 4, "ya" = 1, "ma" = 5, "dhu" = 9, "ra" =2, "ta" = 6 etc giving the first 8 figures of Pi, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter). Not only did it give Pi to 32 decimal places, but there was a secret Master Key within the patterning of the 32 that could unlock the next 32 decimals of Pi, and so on, a ticket to infinity. Not only did it praise Krishna, it operated on another level as a dedication to Shankara: (800A.D, the celebrated Acharya or Teacher, and founder of 4 monastic orders. - source
So, although within our Western traditions, we generally credit Pythagoras and the Greeks for the establishing a philosophical foundation where numbers were fused to sound, it is generally understood by Eastern scholars that Sanskrit was well versed in this practice and hence predates the use of Letter/Number/Sound as was done in the West.

The Greek Letter Number System 



 Precisely how Pythagoras, one of the most influential mathematician-philosophers of Western civilization, was inspired to put forward his treatise on Number is not precisely known, but rumors and stories about about Pythagoras being born through divine intervention.  Pythagoras was said to have imparted knowledge through formulae contained in his name, and used the letters as esoteric tools to teach about philosophical wisdom.
The Letter Y, for instance, held the following significance, 
The famous Pythagorean Υ signified the power of choice and was used in the Mysteries as emblematic of the Forking of the Ways. The central stem separated into two parts, one branching to the right and the other to the left. The branch to the right was called Divine Wisdom and the one to the left Earthly Wisdom. Youth, personified by the candidate, walking the Path of Life, symbolized by the central stem of the Υ, reaches the point where the Path divides. The neophyte must then choose whether he will take the left-hand path and, following the dictates of his lower nature, enter upon a span of folly and thoughtlessness which will inevitably result in his undoing, or whether he will take the right-hand road and through integrity, industry, and sincerity ultimately regain union with the immortals in the superior spheres. 
It is probable that Pythagoras obtained his concept of the Υ from the Egyptians, who included in certain of their initiatory rituals a scene in which the candidate was confronted by two female figures. One of them, veiled with the white robes of the temple, urged the neophyte to enter into the halls of learning; the other, bedecked with jewels, symbolizing earthly treasures, and bearing in her hands a tray loaded with grapes (emblematic of false light), sought to lure him into the chambers of dissipation. This symbol is still preserved among the Tarot cards, where it is called The Forking of the Ways. The forked stick has been the symbol of life among many nations, and it was placed in the desert to indicate the presence of water. - source
Greek letters, additionally, were used as numbers, and so we see that from at least the time of Pythagoras, the Greeks were immersed into a study of a Letters as being comprised of Letters/Numbers/Sounds with philosophical archetypes already being affixed to the Letters

Plutarch, in his treatise, "On the Letter E at Delphi", for instance, would go on to add that the Letter E was/is the conjuction IF, and that the Letter E is the FIFth letter of the Alphabet, signifies a fusing of words to number and sound.

Ultimately, the Greek Letter/Number system would become the inspiration to the much later Jewish "letter/number" system.  Thus the Sepher Yetzirah is, in all probability, a leaked and Judaized document from the Pythagorean Mystery Schools.

The Roman Numbering System



Whereas Jewish mystics "forked"and adopted the Greek letter/number system, the Romans developed their own that would be intrinsically linked to the West, and especially to what would become the modern English language. Using but 7 letters, C-D-I-L-M-V-X to represent 100, 500, 1, 50, 1000, 5, and 10 respective. the Romans encoded a system whose constituent digits totaled 1,666, a number with enormous esoteric significance for it symbolized itself as a represented of the Sun.

Displayed in an array of 1-5-1-5-1-5-1, its reverse could be represented by a pairing formula, as C and D are congruent letters as are L and M.   Thus the digits (1+5)(1+5)(1+5)1 would reveal a 6661, the opposite representation of 1666.  And with the Sun being represented as a magical 6X6 grid where each horizontal row, vertical column, and diagonal row added to 111  Whereas the sum of 1:36 adds to 666, the Romans appeared eager to promote their understanding of Gematria numbers relative to the sun in a manner no civilization had yet so eloquently achieved.

The stage was set for a dynamic Gematria free from dogma and able to encode basic astronomical and philosophical concepts directly into language.

Gematria - Codes and Ciphers in the English and the Middle Ages


For those who doubt that English would have a Gematria foundation, one has to ask you: "Why would you think that?"

The idea of a Christian Cabala was extant and widely known the 1500's.  The recognized father of Western magic, Cornelius Agrippa, commented reasonably extensively on the subject.  Further, the Enlightenment saw the rise of "steganography", cryptology,  and with it, the willful and deliberate coding of information into documents austere and otherwise. To this day exist manuscripts whose secrets have yet to be revealed.

Truth is, very little academic attention has been given to the use of codes and ciphers in Medieval history, let alone any single language as English.  Yet clearly we know well that codes and ciphers in the language, "gematria", was well entrenched into the philosophical elite of the Middle Ages.
The codes and ciphers of the Middle Ages have received little or no modern scholarly attention. David Khan’s 1181-page volume _The Code-Breakers: The Comprehensive History of Secret Communication from Ancient Times to the Internet_, for example, devotes a mere thirty-four pages to the ancient and classical world, and little more than one sentence to the Middle Ages, claiming that “ciphers, of course, had been used by monks throughout the Middle Ages for scribal amusement” (106). But the construction and use of codes, ciphers, secret languages and mathematical secrets in the Middle Ages were much more than amusement: they were central to intellectual culture as modes of concealing dangerous, magical or secret information, and as a means of connecting oneself to the divine. - source 
To presume that English, the most prolific language for unique title/subject book releases from the middle 1600's to 1800, did not have within it, too, its own variant of encoding knowledge and secrets would more of a stretch than an implausible conspiracy.  Indeed, many have surmised, including Manley P. Hall and others, that the Shakespearean Plays held within them ciphers and hidden messages.





Not that such conjecture is a wild stretch.  After all, Sir Francis Bacon, the presumed ghost writer of the Shakespearean plays, created the "bi-lateral cipher", and acrostic ciphers, although somewhat subjective, appear to link Bacon directly to Shakespeare within the text of the plays themselves.


The Sepher Yetzira - Setting Number to Letters

What remains is precisely how we set number to letter within the English Alphabet.  The idea of an order and placement of the English Alphabet was lionized by Aleister Crowley, when he admonished his followers to find the order and value of the English of the English Alphabet in "The Book of the Law"
Thou shalt obtain the order & value of the English Alphabet; thou shalt find new symbols to attribute them unto.
Yet while Crowley's adherents chased and sought after "an order and value of the English Alphabet", what was equally implied, and in that time not yet fully comprehended or understood, was the implication that the English Alphabet already comprised a specific order and value as well as specific attributions.

Further, if Crowley and his followers were told to attribute "new symbols" to attribute to the English Alphabet, what precisely were these symbols and attributions extant within the English Alphabet?

After all, such an idea was never really solved, and a generation plus of occult oriented souls chased after Crowley's admonition while steadfastly ignoring the reality of what was before them: that the English Alphabet indeed contains order and esoteric attribution within the symbols.

All of this idea ultimately links back to the Sepher Yetzirah, which speaks about esoteric attributions to various letters.

What has always been lacking in the public discourse is a structural analysis of the English Alphabet utilizing "Qaballistic principles.  So let us proceed to explore the Order and Value of the English Alphabet and the underlying esoteric attributions contained within some of the Letters.

In order to accomplish, we should consider ideas the idea of aspirated and non-voiced sounds, as well as letters maintaining "double sounds", for all of this should then be observably placed back into some elegant cipher pattern that conceals these "mysteries" such that we may use the language to further encode esoteric formulae.

The Voiced and Non-Voiced Sounds


We should not presume that "the Creator" errors in precision and as such, that the Alphabet, whether divinely inspired (unconsciously placed into its present order), or crafted through logic and reason (language crafter's inspired by divine order), is in error.  Unlike Crowley, we start by presuming that the 26 digit system in place in English is in perfect order.

Thus, when we study the first linguistic principle from the Sepher Yetzirah, the idea of "voiced" and "unvoiced" sounds, we should find a harmony and precision that is unmistakable.

Indeed, simple observation shows that such is true.

The "unvoiced" sounds of English are all located a sequence based on 3.  Beginning at each half of the Alphabet, the un-voiced sounds may be found counted 3 in from the left start of each half of the Alphabet, then an additional 3 in from the previous unvoiced sound, and then 3 in from the start of the right side of each half of the Alphabet.

Here we may note that both K and X are as mirrors, each essentially symmetrical along the horizontal axis.  In the case of the Letter X, we attribute to the lower portion of the X the male aspect, and to the upper half of the Letter X (the V), the female aspect.  Thus the Letter X is the UNION of male and female, an idea that was, too, postulated too Dan Brown's "The Davinci Code".

When we add to our analysis the idea of "acroamatic ciphers" as espoused by Manley P. Hall, we can then begin the idea of assigning further attributions to the Letters.
The acroamatic cipher is the most subtle of all, for the parable or allegory is susceptible of several interpretations. Bible students for centuries have been confronted by this difficultly. They are satisfied with the moral interpretation of the parable and forget that each parable and allegory is capable of seven interpretations, of which the seventh--the highest--is complete and all-inclusive, whereas the other six (and lesser) interpretations are fragmentary, revealing but part of the mystery. The creation myths of the world are acroamatic cryptograms, and the deities of the various pantheons are only cryptic characters which, if properly understood, become the constituents of a divine alphabet. The initiated few comprehend the true nature of this alphabet, but the uninitiated many worship the letters of it as gods. - source
We now may equate the Letter X to the Tale of "Geb and Nut", with Geb, the god of the Earth in union with Nut, the goddess of the Sky.

However, as a "Number", the Letter X is the number 10, which too reveals both male (1) and female (0), while its location is at 11 of the second half of the Alphabet reveals that both 1 and 0 as male and female are too "1" in and of themselves, and thus the "unity" of the two I's as (11), crossing over each other create the Letter X.

Thus we may view the "X" as 10 or 11, but each number represents the same esoteric dynamic (attribution) which soon dissipates when seen as the "24".

The Letter K shares some of these same properties as the Letter X, but contains only half of the totality of the X as the vertical line divides the totality of the union (in design).  The Letter K, thus, we may equate to "being cut off", uniquely separate even as it shares the properties of the X.

The Letter K, as an attribution, we equate to the Egyptian "Ka", which is the higher spiritual self of the incarnated soul.  The vertical is as a mirror so as the self peers up into the heavens in search of its higher self, it sees but a reflection of what that higher self is.  The clearer (cleaner) the mirror, the clearer the vision of the spiritual self.

Interestingly enough, the Letter X, pronounced as it is as "ECKS", contains the unvoiced sounds as show, leaving only the F and the P (and T) as unvoiced sounds not incorporated into naming of the Letter "X".  Regardless, we know that the "3" and "11" have perhaps as yet unascertained links to the unaspirated, for if we are to reverse the numbers/letters to read from right to left, we will find still that the Letter C is linked at 11, while the P, although linked and purely masculine in attribute, fails to hold any phonetic links to such numbering.

Bringing the S into harmonic order (number) must rest upon an additional matrix within the Alphabet.

The Sepher Yetzirah - A Pseudo-Linguistic Treatise

The Sepher Yetzirah is a foundation document to the Qaballistic Arts  It is also one of the earliest occult documents that specifically references linguistic observations being embedded into esoteric constructions.


The primary proposition of the The Sepher Yetzirah is that language is predicated on 3 ciphers, or sepharim: letter, numbers, and sounds. Writing in the introduction to his work, "The Sepher Yetzirah", William Wescott shares,

Eliphas Levi, the famous French Occultist, thus wrote of the "Sepher Yetzirah" in his "Hisoire de la Magi, p 54:"The Zohar is a Genesis of the illumination, the Sepher Jezirah is a ladder formed of truths.  Therein are explained the thirty-two absolute signs of sounds, numbers and letters: each letter reproduces a number, an idea and a form; so that mathematics are capable of application to ideas and to form not less rigorous than to numbers, by exact proportion and perfect correspondence.
Letters are symbols for sounds, but are fused equally to number, form, archetype.  They are two dimensional representations of 3 + dimensional forms which are then combined to form words, and from words, sentences, and from sentences  we begin the process of exponential growth in reason and logic capable of creating "reality".  Whether that "reality" is fiction or truth, deception or lies matters little from the foundation of letters as representations of sounds.

Letters are akin to cloak, a robe.  In fact, in Plutarch's On Isis and Osiris, the letters are known as "the robes of Isis", while the "robe of Osiris is the Alphabet itself. From these instruments, from nothing (a blank piece of paper or silence) comes all things, whether uttered or written.

In order to penetrate this veil, or fusion of letters, numbers, and sounds, it then becomes necessary to understand how "number" is fused to Letters.  Further, we should not dismiss this idea of "exact proportion", of showing specific logic and patterns set into the Alphabet itself.

Linguistic Principles within the Sepher Yetzirah
Voiced and Unvoiced Pairings 



The two sounds of each letter are the hard and the soft - the aspirates and the softened.
Chapter 4, Paragraph 1

Speech is composed of two groups of sounds, which modern linguists call "voiced" and "unvoiced" or "voiceless".  Simply put, voiced sounds occur when the vocal chords vibrate as air passes over, while with unvoiced sounds, there is no air moving over the vocal chords and hence, no vibration.

The ratio of voiced:unvoiced is roughly 70:30 meaning that 70 percent of audible speech is comprised of sounds with vibration, while 30 percent of speech occurs where no vibration is effected on and over the vocal chords.

When viewed in terms of the Sepher Yetzirah, unvoiced (non-aspirated) letters are generally (though not in all cases) the "hard" sounds, while the voiced, or vibrated, are the softened, or aspirated.

One must not jump to simplistic conclusion, however, for there is bound to be some exceptions.

Consider, for instance, the compound sounds "CH" and "SH": the CH sound, as in the word CHURCH, is hard, while the "SH", as in the word SHRED, is the softened form of the CH, but itself remains unaspirated, or unvoiced. 

CH = HARD ; SH = SOFT

The TH pairing may be either voiced or unvoiced.  "TH" in the word THIS is the "softened", or voiced, while it is hardened and unvoiced in the word THIRTY.  In this particular case, we have a prime example of a "letter", or "letter pairing" that represents "two sounds of each letter".

Another example of a letter that has "two sounds" is the letter S.  The word SCISSORS, for instance, is an example where the Letter S represents two sounds, the hardened and the softened, the unvoiced and voiced.  The beginning S is hardened (unvoiced), while the middle SS and ending S is voiced, taking the sound of Z.

Not all letters will have two sounds, but instead have their own paired letter.

D is soft - T is hard
B is soft - P is hard
V is soft - F is hard

The modern academic science of Linguistics has developed into a comprehensive science of human speech, but it as shown, it remains that the Sepher Yetzirah clearly references an innate understanding of speech sound groupings.


Phonemes.  Building Blocks of Speech


These twenty-two sounds or letters are formed by the voice, impressed on the air, and audibly modified in five places; in the throat, in the mouth, by the tongue, through the teeth, and by the lips.
Chapter 2, Paragraph 3
Speech, as discussed, consists of sounds that want in and out of two realms: voiced and unvoiced.  Within these two realms lie the basic building blocks of speech, or the "phonemes".  Phonemes are the basic building blocks of language.

Phonemes, like the two categories of speech, themselves are divided into two basic components.  These are the vowels and consonants.  Vowels are unique in that there is never any obstruction by the lips or tongue.  The Letter M is effected by closing the lips, the letter D is effected by a quick tap of the alveolar bone behind the teeth, while the Letters A, E, I, O, and U are effected with the mouth open.

The balance of the letters are effected by some obstruction, whether the lips, tongue, or mouth.  These letters are called the CONSONANTS.  Perhaps it is best to classify these two pairing as follows:

VOWELS = OPEN = O
CONSONANTS = CLOSED = 1

In English, there are 26 letters, but 44 sounds, or phonemes.

When considering the fusion of Letters to Number, each individual phoneme would, theoretically, require its own unique glyph and letter placement.  Such an Alphabet we could consider to be "phonemic" and each unique phoneme would be connected to individual letters which further would have its own unique number.  This is uniquely true of the Devanagari script of India where each letter and its resultant sound has its own signifier (glyph/letter).(1)

Such is not the case in English.  As the Sepher Yetirah discusses, letters have two sounds.  The letters are not being cast into individual phonemic matrices, but rather maintain their positions while possessing the properties of multiple sounds.

The Letter C, for instance, using modern linguistic analysis, comprises 5 sounds:

C(k), C(s), C(sh), C(ts), and C(tch).

CAT, CIRRUS, OCEAN, CURRENCY, and CELLO

The model of "hardness" and "softness" for the letter C as in CAT is the letter G as in GOOD.

Modern linguistics now provides a comprehensive analysis of  phonemes to include the development of an "International Phonetic Alphabet", but the Sepher Yetzirah clearly postulated the idea of "phonemes" and sound pairings long before the academic science of linguistics entered Western academic circles.

What remains is a comprehensive study of the mathematics, or the use of number as assigned or "fused" to "letters".
