Hellenistic Cosmology, reaching its pinnacle in the 2nd-4th Centuries A.D., developed from many

sources. Pythagoras School taught that All was Number, and the Tetractys

(1+2+3+4=10) was their mystical sign upon which their Oaths were taken. The Philosopher Empedocles is credited as being the first to distinguish the 4 primal Elements from each other, Plato and Aristotle further expounded upon the 5th Element, Aither. Neo-Platonic Theurgy developed correspondences between sym-bols, sounds, numbers, and spiritual forces. Gnostic Christians employed secret messages encoded in sacred numerals. Near Eastern Astrology, Semitic Lore, and Egyptian Mysticism blended with native Greek tradition in the time of Alexander the Greats Empire to create the Cosmology so pertinent to Isopsephia and Kab-

alistic philosophy.

To the Elements it came from Everything will return. Our bodies to Earth, Our blood to Wa-ter, Heat to Fire, Breath to Air.

Empdocles on Etna, by Matthew Arnold

Now Hear the Fourfold Roots of Every-thing: enlivening Hera, Aidoneus, shining Zeus, and Nestis, moistening mortal springs with tears. Empedocles, speaking of the Elements as gods: Hera as Earth, Zeus as Air, Aidoneus (Hades) as Fire, and Nes-tis (Persephone) as Water.
