Spiritual Meaning of Letter E

The modern E evolved from the Phoenician letter “He” (𐤄), which meant “window” or “breath.”
It later became the Greek Epsilon (ε), then the Roman E we know today.

So originally, E represented a window for divine breath to pass through, or a channel for spirit to flow into matter. To the ancients, it was the breath that connected the inner world and the outer world, as indicated in the Tetragrammaton: YHWH or Yod, He, Vav, and He (Yahweh). In this sacred word, “He” (E) is the life-giving breath that animates creation.

In numerology, E is the fifth letter, and number 5 is the number of the five senses, the five elements, and the five points of the human form (1 head, 2 arms, and 2 legs). Basically, 5 is the number of M-A-N (Master-Able-Noble), so this is why in the Egyptian hieroglyph, the letter E was depicted as a man.

A man must Master his own 5 senses (E) to be Able to ascend to heavenly realms. Only then can he be considered Noble. The nobility of a man is in his character and virtue, not in his worldly status or possessions. This is why E represents Essence, Ether, Enlightenment, and Eye of Providence.

In fact, while the letter E symbolizes the Eye of God, the lowercase “e” symbolizes the artificial eyes that track our every action. Everything we do online leaves footprints. Thus, we really need to be conscious of our online behaviors.

E is the Scale of Maat (Truth)
E is the Scale of Maat (Truth)

According to Ressurrect Isis, the letter E symbolizes the Scale of Justice held up on the Day of Judgment. When we die, our hearts will be weighed against the feather of Maat (Truth, Justice).

If our hearts are lighter than a feather, we’ll get the mark of purity and be accepted into heaven. If the hearts were heavier, indicating a sinful life, we would be devoured by Ammit, known as the “devourer of the dead”, which caused the complete destruction of our souls.

By “destruction”, I mean that our souls would perish forever without any further chance for rebirth. If you’re spiritual, I recommend that you read the article “How Humankind Came To Be” by Mr. Li Hongzhi, or my article “Your True Home“.

Now, look at the modern form of “E”. It’s composed of three horizontal lines attached to one vertical spine. Together, these three lines represent the threefold nature of existence — Body, Mind, and Spirit — all anchored to the One Self (the vertical). This means that all levels of reality are expressions of one soul.

Note: If you seek a deeper understanding about letters and numbers, I’d recommend you to read “The Big Book of Numerology” by Shirley Blackwell Lawrence. This book can reveal to you the esoteric meaning of letters and numbers and why they work.

Meaning of Letter E in Your Name

In numerology, if the first letter of your first name or your vowel starts with E, you’re an Expressive, Eager, Energetic, and Extroverted person. As E’s numerical value is 5, E people tend to be outgoing and love to Explore the world to its fullest potential.

When we double the letter “E”, we get “ee”, which symbolizes the Expansive nature of E people. We see this quality in many words such as Free, Deep, Seek, Flee, etc. Life is a school teacher for you, and you learn your lessons through Experience.

Spiritually, E is progressive as the letter is facing to the right. E people often look ahead into the future and get Excited about things going to come. As number 5 lies in the middle of 1 and 10, you need to establish a balance as you tend to be changeable and versatile by nature.
