Following on from the last picture, and in respect to the female principle, we may come to the concept of the Godess. This is a common principle in what may be called pagan or animist thought. This can be seen manifest in Aegypt in Isis and Nuit, in Mespotamia in Istar, in the many female godesses in under modern heading 'Hinduism', Sophia in Greek, Venus, Aphrodite etc. etc.. In the Wiccan tradition this godess is seen in triplicity, mother earth, the moon, and space itself (the night sky if you will). During the period prior to the advent of Islam during the period known as Jahiliyah (ignorance), in Mecca itself idols of three daughters of Allah were worshipped. It is moot but there is good chance that these three correspond to the previously mentioned triplicity. For the purpose of this post we will consider the goddess personifying space through the traditions of the Order of the Oriental Templar (OTO). They as a result from their affinity for Aegyptology (mostly under the direction of Crowley, who was quoted earlier) call space by the name of Nuit, or just NU.
One can see in the above picture the Hebrew letters for NU, which correspond to the numerical value of 56. If the tree of life is considered from a sephirotic perspective, the sum of visible spheres is 10, 5 + 5, 55. There is thus an affinity between the sephirotic tree including Daath, and NU as with Daath there are eleven sephiroth, 11, 5 + 6, 56. The earlier quote from the book of the law is interesting here as Ain (nothing) numerically is 61. Thus it may be concluded that NU is within the void, the nothing, Ain. Again in the following representation the Number 56 is seen on Nuit's rump, this time in Roman Numerals and as a representation of space.
One may again consider the Nothing (Ain) beyond space (Nu), the limitless (Ain Soph) surrounding it, supported by Ain Soph Aur, Eloah, Al Nur, Allah. Thus it may be considered that in the semiotics of mysticism we have prototypical science.

Bismillah Ar Rahman Ar Raheem
It is He Who hath created for you all things that are on earth; Moreover His design comprehended the heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments; and of all things He hath perfect knowledge.
Sura Al Baqara, 2:29
