Sacred Geometry And Gematria

Sacred geometry refers to the use of geometric shapes, patterns, and proportions that are considered sacred or spiritually significant in various cultures and traditions. These geometric forms are often believed to hold symbolic meaning and represent fundamental principles of the universe. The term is derived from the Greek word geometria, which means "measurement of the earth" or "earth-measuring." In Hebrew, sacred geometry can be translated as גאומטריה קדושה (geometria kdusha). Similarly, in Arabic, it is known as الهندسة المقدسة (al-hindasa al-muqaddasa), and in Sanskrit, it is referred to as धर्म ज्यामिति (dharma jyāmiti). Sacred geometry is often intertwined with gematria, a system of Jewish mysticism that assigns numerical values to Hebrew letters to find hidden meanings in words and phrases. Gematria, derived from the Greek word for "geometric," is known as גימטריה (gimatria) in Hebrew. Together, sacred geometry and gematria are used in various spiritual and esoteric practices to explore the deeper connections between mathematics, language, and the divine.
