A Thing About Numerology (AKA Gematria)

Many people have heard about Numerology, there are many systems of it and not all of them work but one which does is called Gematria (Geometric Writing).

Gematria is the idea of combining numbers and letters, creating systems that connect various numbers with the alphabet and then adding up the value of words or phrases or even entire sentences.

I've been looking into this for years and it turns out if you look, you can find a ridiculous level of connections between concepts by decoding them with gematria.

There are a few different keys of gematria but the best one I've found is the most simple, aptly named Simple Gematria.

Simple Gematria is combining letters with numbers that correspond simply just to their position in the alphabet:
A=1 B=2 C=3 D=4 E=5 F=6 G=7 H=8 I=9 J=10 K=11 L=12 M=13 N=14 O=15 P=16 Q=17 R=18 S=19 T=20 U=21 V=22 W=23 X=24 Y=25 Z=26

Easy enough right? All you do is take any word, phrase or sentence and add up the letters based on what number they equal and add them all up.

So "THE" - I.e. - T=20 H=8 E=5 ===33

"THE" equals 33 Ironically. So every time you've seen a "The" anywhere, in this system it secretly adds to 33..

And I assume you know Masons like the number 33, we can talk about them later.

But because weird number/word systems like this exist and are employed.. If you look, you can end up finding stuff like..

This.

I have so many of these,
I could easily do these much much more,
Lemme know if this interests you.

It certainly interests me.

To me I don't see how any of this is even possible without this system having been used for a very, very long time.

Weird huh?
