Numbers

Their Occult Power
& Mystic Virtues

W. Wynn Westcott 1911

Numbers have long held a sacred and mysterious significance across civilizations, influencing philosophy, mysticism, and esoteric traditions. In this fascinating exploration of numerology and occult philosophy, W. Wynn Westcott—a prominent figure in the Hermetic and Rosicrucian traditions—delves into the hidden meanings, symbolic attributes, and mystical applications of numbers.

Drawing from a vast array of sources, from ancient Pythagorean teachings to Kabbalistic interpretations, this work reveals the deep connection between numbers and cosmic principles. Westcott examines the role of numbers in sacred texts, alchemical doctrines, and esoteric traditions, offering readers a rich tapestry of knowledge that spans cultures and epochs.

Originally published as part of his Collectanea Hermetica series, this volume is an essential resource for students of mysticism, the occult sciences, and those intrigued by the profound wisdom hidden within numerical patterns. Whether you are a seeker of hidden truths or a scholar of esoteric traditions, Numbers – Their Occult Power and Mystic Virtues offers a gateway to deeper understanding and insight into the unseen forces that shape our reality.
