עדים נאמניםThree Faithful Witnesses

edim ne'emanimIn Gamatria ↗

Sky, season and body tell the same story.

The last chapter gathers everything together: three fathers (air, water and fire) and their offspring, seven planets and their hosts, and twelve diagonal boundaries. The proof is called "faithful witnesses": world, year and soul. These are space, time and the living person, and each shows the same twelve, seven and three. Fire is above, water is below, and breath decides between them; the sign is that fire carries the water. Mem is silent, shin hisses, and aleph is the breath that holds the balance. The cosmology is meant to be checked in the sky, the calendar and one's own body.
