Carlo Suares’ book ‘The Cipher of Genesis’ is developed around the assumption that the original Hebrew, like Sanskrit and several other languages, was a symbolic language. There are twenty-seven powerfully energetic symbols organized in a matrix of three rows comprised of nine letters each. It’s our sense that the three rows give great insight into three of the four Qabalistic Worlds – a quantum, abstract, metaphorical world; an existential, Newtonian world; and a cosmological world. The fourth world is Ein Sof and cannot be defined by words or symbols. We further opine that the nine letters in each row represent a fundamental organizing component of all living systems. In living systems, organization is fixed while structure is constantly changing. If this is true, we have a language that gives great insight into all that is necessary to create and sustain life. It’s possible the language may be the energy source for the creation and sustenance of life.

What follows is a 3 x 9 construct as shown in ‘The Cipher of Genesis.’ The 3 x 9 is then mapped on the spiral galaxy below with some guides to show that each of the columns — made up of one archetypal, existential, and cosmic symbol — become a spoke extending from the center of the spiral outward. The idea is to give the 3 x 9 construct an organic ‘spin,’ as befits a living language.
