How CUE decodes a word

Every word around you has a number: a brand, a street, a team, even your pet’s name. CUE’s Letterology, its own kind of gematria, decodes a word by looking at three things.

  1. The total

    Every letter turns into its number, from A = 1 to Z = 26, and they all add up. The total is the word’s number and its main energy. Love adds up to 9.

  2. The first letter

    The first letter is how the word opens: the first energy you meet when you see it or say it. It sets the tone. Love opens with L, a 3.

  3. The first vowel

    The first vowel, A, E, I, O or U, is the word’s heart: the energy hiding inside it. In Love, it’s the O, a 6.

Put the three together and you can read the words and names around you, from your street to your favourite brand.

Gematria questions

What is gematria?

Gematria is the practice of reading words as numbers. CUE’s Letterology is its English version: A = 1 to Z = 26, each letter reduced to one number, then added up.

How does this gematria calculator work?

Type any word or phrase. Every letter turns into its number, the numbers add up, and the total reduces to one number. CUE keeps the master numbers 11, 22 and 33 whole, and a total of 20 is a hidden 11.

Which gematria system does it use?

English ordinal values (A = 1 … Z = 26), reduced letter by letter (sometimes called full reduction), the way CUE’s Letterology reads every word. K and V keep their master numbers, 11 and 22.

What does my word’s number mean?

Each number carries its own energy in CUE: 1 is leader energy, 5 is freedom, 8 is money and power, 11 is the old soul. The calculator shows the meaning for every word you type.

Can I check names too?

Yes. Switch to Name for a full reading of a name: its number, its first letter and first vowel, and what the two make together.

What is English ordinal gematria?

It gives each letter its place in the alphabet: A = 1, B = 2 and so on, up to Z = 26. CUE’s Letterology starts there, then reduces each letter to one number (S, the 19th, is 1 + 9 = 10, and 1 + 0 = 1), keeping K (11) and V (22) whole.

4 more questions

Is gematria the same as numerology?

They are close. Gematria reads words as numbers. Numerology reads what those numbers mean, for names and words as well as birthdays. CUE’s Letterology does both: it adds up the word, then tells you what its number means.

What does LOVE add up to?

L is 3, O is 6, V is 22 and E is 5, so LOVE adds up to 36, and 3 + 6 = 9. Words that add up to 9 carry easygoing energy that fits in anywhere and keeps growing.

Do capital letters change the number?

Not here: this calculator reads every letter the same way, capital or not. In the CUE app, Letterology can also count capital letters on their own (A = 27), so a word in capitals can carry a different number.

What does MAN add up to?

MAN adds up to 1, and its first vowel, A, is a 1 too. In numerology 1 is male energy, so it checks out.
