N n

“Nothing is ‘normal’ — novelty and Nature are one.”

‘N’ has to do with numerism, both determinate and indeterminate, as well as progeny, in the sense of an unspecified number or quality which emerges from reflection and interaction.

The majuscule letter bears a strong resemblance to the Hebrew aleph, and shows a mirroring or reversible relationship where the bottom of the right pillar becomes the top of the left, and vice-versa. This implies a reflective reproduction.

The miniscule is an ‘h’ with the pillar shortened, the downward stroke is reflected into an inverted cup, or dome to the right (or east) of the stroke. In both characters it is customary to draw downward, then up, then continue — which implies energy drawn down, rising up, and then being reflected into new or novel forms and beings.

The indeterminate quality of newly-arriving instances or multiples has strong precedence in this letter’s interpretation, with the additional quality of ‘randomness’ attached to that which emerges from prior sources, actions or circumstances. The somewhat random quality of ‘noise’ is similarly implicit in ‘N’.

Character Classes to which ‘N’ belongs:

Crossing over between reflections or poles

Folding

Having Pillars

Two Pillars

Left Pillar

Right Pillar

Diagonal Stroke(s)
