1. What is Greek Numerology?

Greek numerology refers to ancient systems of assigning numerical values to letters in the Greek alphabet. These systems were used for mathematics, mysticism, and religious interpretation.

2. How Greek Calculations Work

The basic principle involves assigning numerical values to Greek letters and then performing calculations based on these values:

Where:

• Greek letters have specific numerical equivalents
• Different systems apply different calculation methods
• Results can be interpreted numerically or symbolically

3. Types of Greek Calculations

Gematria: Assigns numerical values to words and compares numerical values of different words.

Isopsephy: Similar to gematria but often includes additional calculation methods and interpretations.

Pythagorean System: Reduces values to single digits (1-9) for interpretation.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter Greek text, select calculation type, and view results. The calculator supports multiple Greek numerology systems.

A: Gematria is the Hebrew system adapted to Greek, while isopsephy is the original Greek system - though the terms are often used interchangeably.

Q2: How accurate are these calculations?
A: These are interpretive systems rather than exact mathematical calculations. Different traditions may use slightly different values.

Q3: Can I use this for modern Greek?
A: The systems are based on ancient Greek alphabets and may not directly apply to modern Greek usage.

Q4: What were these systems used for historically?
A: They were used in religious texts, mystical traditions, and sometimes for encoding messages.
