ABOUT

Numbers as a Symbolic System explores the symbolic meanings of the numbers 1 through 9 across various cultural, philosophical, and spiritual frameworks. This website offers an interactive experience, allowing users to delve into the deeper meanings of these numbers through visual and textual interpretations.
  Functioning as an online library and image bank, the site invites users to explore the symbolism of each number by clicking on images, with each image accompanied by detailed explanations. The design challenges traditional grid conventions, gradually increasing in complexity as users progress, reflecting the growing depth of the exploration.
  This website encourages users to reflect on the broader significance of numbers, engaging with them beyond their mathematical function, and exploring how they shape our culture, beliefs, and perceptions of the world.
