Nature
Word — gematria and numerology meaning
| Cipher | Value |
|---|---|
| Ordinal (A=1, B=2…) | 79 |
| Reverse Ordinal (Z=1, Y=2…) | 83 |
| Reduction | 25 |
| Pythagorean | 25 |
| Chaldean | 23 |
Nature carries an ordinal value of 79, reducing to Seven, a number tied to reflection and inquiry. Its forward and reverse ordinal values sit close together at 79 and 83, because its letters are spread fairly evenly across the alphabet. The Chaldean system gives 23, which reduces to Five and so reads differently from the standard total.
"Nature" comes from the Latin natura, from nasci, "to be born." The word first named the essential character of a thing, as in "human nature," and only later the physical world as a whole, which is why it can still mean either.
How Nature adds up
In the ordinal cipher each letter takes its position in the alphabet. Nature is spelled N-A-T-U-R-E, which gives 14 + 1 + 20 + 21 + 18 + 5 = 79. Reducing the total to a single digit (7+9=16, then 1+6=7) gives 7.
| Letter | Ordinal value |
|---|---|
| N | 14 |
| A | 1 |
| T | 20 |
| U | 21 |
| R | 18 |
| E | 5 |
| Total | 79 |
