How to do english gematria

english gematria is a form of numerology that assigns numerical values to words or phrases in order to determine hidden meanings or hidden correlations between different pieces of text. The practice has been around for centuries, used by scholars and esotericists alike as a way to uncover secrets within words and language. To begin exploring the power of English Gematria, one must first understand how it works.

The most basic form of English gematria assigns numerical values to letters based on their position in the alphabet. A=1, B=2, C=3, etc. This number is then added up for each word or phrase one wishes to examine. For example, "love" is assigned a numerical value of 12 (L-12, O-15, V-22, E-5). Other systems may assign similar values but with slight variations.

The next step involves finding correlations between words or phrases with similar numerical values. Since each letter has its own particular value attached to it, two wholly different words might end up having the same total sum if they contain the same set of letters in different arrangements. For example "bless" has a value of 60 (B-2, L-12, E-5 S-19 S-19) and so does "sleep" (S-19 L-12 E -5 E -5 P -16). In this case there could be some kind of mystical connection between feeling bless and going to sleep

The deeper you go into English Gematria the more complex it gets as there are many variations on how numbers can be calculated and interpreted. As an example some may look at words from a reverse angle or change the weighting of certain letters over others leading to different interpretations and analysis entirely.
