The Number 7

Since ancient times, the number seven (7) has always held a special significance in our universe, the creation of human kind, 7_Chakrasand in religion. The number 7 is often called the holy number, lucky number, the prophetic number, or the mystical number.

In Eastern Philosophy there are the seven heavens of the Mohammedans and Hindoos, with the seven hells. The Christians in the West have the seven virtues and seven deadly sins, or what those in the New Age movement might call our seven light bodies, the seven chakras, or the seven states of being.

Plato had written in Timseus, that from the number seven was generated the soul of the World, Anima Mundana (Adam Kadmon). To the Greek Mathematician Pythagoras and the Pythagoreans, the number seven is “the essence or first principle of things,” which they applied to the secrets of the universe and creation.

They had called the number seven in Greek ‘heptad’, and thought of it as a religious and perfect number. The Heptad was said to be from the Greek verb ‘sebo’, to venerate (and from the Hebrew Shbo, seven, or satisfied, abundance), being Septos ” Holy”, “divine”, “motherless”, and “a Virgin.” Hipporcrates said the number seven, a sepentary number had occult virtues, which “lends to the accomplishment of all things, and is the dispenser of life and foundation of all its changes.” (more…)

The Gnostic X-Men

By Sir Godfrey Higgins – On this subject General Vallancey observes, “And hence the Sephiroth-tree, or tree of numbers, of the Cabalistical Jews:

Item, Spurius Liber de Caeremoniis Magicis, qui Quartus Agrippae habetur. Quibus accesserunt, Heptameron Petri de Abano.

and this tree contained ten names, viz corona, sapientia, prudentia, dementia, gravitas, ornatus, tri”umphus, confessio laudis, fundamentum, regnum.

The number ten seems to have been fixed on because, as relating “to numerals, ten was called perfection, as from thence all nations began to count anew.

For this reason the Egyptians “expressed the number ten by the word mid, that is, perfection; and the Irish call it deag, a word of like meaning: “and for this reason the Chaldeans formed the word jod, or number ten, by an equilateral triangle thus which was “the symbol of perfection with the Egyptians.”

The Egyptians doubled the triangle thus X, and then it became a cross “of St. Andrew, or the letter X or ten, that is, perfection, being the perfect number, or the number of figures on both “hands: hence it stood for ten with the Egyptians, Chinese, Phoenicians, Romans, and is so used with us at this “day.

Leonardo da Vinci’s Geometric Sketches

Leonardo da Vinci briefly studied geometry with Franciscan friar, Luca Pacioli (ca. 1445-1509) who is best known for his compendium of fifteenth century mathematics, Summa de arithmetica, geometrica, proportioni et proportionalita (1494).

Being an artist, Da Vinci had chosen to focus mainly on the shape, size, and descriptive features of objects specifically, those illustrating the sphere, cone, cylinder, pyramid, and the five Platonic solids rather than their theoretical foundations. He created sixty plates geometric sketches for the work of Leonardo da Vinci’s Geometric Sketches (Divina proportione).

The following images are facsimiles of several of these plates. (more…)
