English Gemtria?
-
Is there an online guide to how to do Gematria, especially in English?
In Alice in Wonderland, at the tea party, the Mad Hatter asks a riddle (which he doesn't have the answer to):
"Why is a raven like a writing desk?"
I thought it would be interesting to look at the gematria of raven and of writing desk. But I don't know how to do this.
Thank you

"Why is a raven like a writing desk?"
"Poe wrote on both."Seriously folks, I've read about several different "English gematrias" but I think the most popular one is the New Aeon English Gematria discovered by Frater Achad.
The letters are first arranged in order in a circle. Starting at A, you make a 26 point star that looks like this:

Starting with A=1 you find L=2 and W=3 and so on until you arrive at these numbers:
A=1 L=2 W=3 H=4 S=5 D=6 O=7 Z=8 K=9 V=10 G=11 R=12 C=13
N=14 Y=15 J=16 U=17 F=18 Q=19 B=20 M=21 X=22 I=23 T=24 E=25 P=26That's my answer to your riddles.
