Origins and History Numerology

in hive-197809 •  3 years ago 

Numerology is a science that we find in many ancient cultures from all over the world.

Its first roots are attributed to the civilization of the Chaldeans in 3500 BC, even if the importance of numbers in history is already found well before, just think of the I-KING i I-Ching, the Book of Changes, dating back to over 5000 years ago.

Legend says that the I-Ching originated from a numerical expression engraved on the back of a turtle.

It represents the main text of Chinese culture, from which Taoism and Confucianism originate, and is based on the principle that, despite the apparent chaos, there is a mathematical and symbolic order of reality.

Furthermore, the astrological system deriving from the I-Ching has an extraordinary connection with the principles of modern numerology.

Traveling in space-time we find the Celts the Germans who used numbers for their divinations, the Maya with their Tzolkin calendar, the analogy between numbers and planets present in the Vedas (Karam Kriya), then the Egyptians with their sacred numerology for express the properties of divinity.

Let's go back to the Chaldeans, because they were the first official numerologists.

The Chaldeans were not a people, but the Babylonian ruling class, and possessed profound knowledge in both mathematics and astronomy, arguing that each element in the universe moved according to its own "frequency", according to repetitive phenomena.

It is said that the relations between the Chaldeans and the Egyptians (3,000 BC) were numerous and fundamental, and it is thanks to these that we arrive at modern day numerology, of which we consider Pythagoras the father.
