English Qaballa

English Qaballa (EQ) is a Hermetic Qabalah system based on arithmancy, that interprets the letters of the English alphabet via an assigned set of values. It was created by James Lees in 1976, through his efforts to understand, interpret, and elaborate on the mysteries of Aleister Crowley's Book of the Law. According to Jake Stratton-Kent, "the English Qaballa is a qabalah and not a system of numerology. A qabalah is specifically related to three factors: one, a language; two, a 'holy' text or texts; three, mathematical laws at work in these two."^[1]^[2]

This system has also been referred to as the ALW cipher and the New Aeon English Qabalah (NAEQ) by other writers.^[3]^[4]
