The phenomenon of sound symbolism is a highly controversial topic in language studies. Contrast with arbitrariness.
"The phonemes in a name can themselves convey meaning. This idea goes back to Plato’s dialogue Cratylus. A philosopher called Hermogenes argues that the relationship between a word and its meaning is purely arbitrary; Cratylus, another philosopher, disagrees; and Socrates eventually concludes that there is sometimes a connection between meaning and sound. Linguistics has mostly taken Hermogenes’ side, but, in the past eighty years, a field of research called phonetic symbolism has shown that Cratylus was on to something."The fundamental thesis underlying the field of sound symbolism has always been controversial, because it appears to be so transparently wrong. The Sound Symbolic Hypothesis is that the meaning of a word is partially affected by its sound (or articulation). If the sound of a word affects its meaning, then you should be able to tell what a word means just by hearing it. There should be only one language. In spite of this, there has always been a fairly substantial group of linguists who do not dismiss the possibility that the form of a word somehow affects its meaning.
Mantra, mn-tra in Hinduism and Buddhism, a sacred utterance (syllable, word, or verse) that is considered to possess mystical or spiritual efficacy. Literally an “instrument of thought”. Mantra refers to a “mystical formula” regarding a deity. Mantra in Hindi refers in English to:—(nm) an incantation, charm, spell; a vedic hymn; sacred formula; mystical verse or magical formula.

HUM Mantra Chanting at 417Hz. HUM AUM or OM is the Primordial Sound of the Universe. It is said to be the sound that reverberates within the entire cosmos as well as in every cell of our body, and 417Hz is an amazingly wonderful frequency that brings the cosmos, body, mind and soul into harmony like a natural cleansing, healing agent for our body, removing negativity, negative blocks and toxicity from our body and mind. Aum has three syllables and three distinct sounds. It starts at the back of the throat where the breath of life, the spirit “hhhh,” is exhaled, then the sound of the breath moves up into the cavity of the mouth and forms into “ooooo,” sound then the humming vibration occurs when the lips are close and an occlusive consonant is produced with a lowered velum, allowing air to escape freely through the nose. “mmmmm.” The Vedas say that Aum is the pranava, that is the boat/vehicle that takes us to the yonder shore, beyond illusion and duality. In the Vedas the word Aum itself was never actually revealed; only euphemisms like pranava were used, because Aum is the ultimate power of the universe, and power must be guarded, kept secret.
In phonetics, a nasal, also called a nasal occlusive or nasal stop in contrast with an oral stop or nasalized consonant, is an occlusive consonant produced with a lowered velum, allowing air to escape freely through the nose. Nasal occlusives are nearly universal in human languages. Most nasals are voiced, and in fact, the nasal sounds [n] and [m] are among the most common sounds cross-linguistically. Acoustically, nasals have bands of energy at around 200 and 2,000 Hz.
MN together or separatly are nasal sounds both m, and n, are made by blocking the sound from the mouth with the lips or tongue. Air is then expelled entirely through the nose. Some words that use the /m/ nasal sound are, mum, name, mine, mouth moon, summer, dimmer, comb, etc. Examples of words that use the /n/ nasal sound are nine, name, no, nose, think, noon, when, and now. Words that use both m&n or n&m are mantra, manu, mind, man, name, numb, mane, mind, moon, menue,
OnomatopoeiaA sophisticated interpretation of a throne iat the first level s a clear symbol of a king or a queen, The objlect can also doubble as an altar for a ritual of consecration, or a sacrifice. It could simply significance “power”.
The Egyptian hieroglyph of a 'throne' represents the phonograms 'st,' 'as, 'htm,' 'ws.' The logogram of a seat is a componant for signifing the goddess Isis. It is the sign tof the throne or steps or 'stile' on its own that signified the sound 's-t'. This design was explicitly for queen, Isis, and or Osiris. The antonomasia Isis in linguistics is like an epithet or a title not a proper name, used as like a proper name to express a general idea, a concept, like an adjective or phrase expressing an attribute regarded as characteristic of the person or the thing mentioned.
To add to the confusion, there are yet more spellings of Isis’ name. Another you’ll run into from time to time is reed flower, chick, folded cloth, loaf, throne. This transliterates as yod, vav, s, t (in this case, the throne is the determinative)—Iuset or as you’ve probably seen it, Auset (again, this is the A with a dot over it, the reed flower). Some scholars have speculated that Isis’ original name—of which we have no definitive record in this form—may have been, in transliteration, Wst (vav, s, t) Wuset, Uset, or Oset. No doubt the idea here is to bring Her name into harmony with that of Osiris: Wsir, Usir, or Osir. But that’s another story.
Essencial comes from Latin essentia "the basic nature of a thing, its essence" plus the Latin suffix -alis "relating to."

The meaning of Assi is 'A beautiful goddess, it is of Lebanese origin, means a beautiful and fair goddess. People with name Assi are Christian or Moslem.The surname El-Assi is more commonly found in Egypt than any other country or territory.
Asi is the Arabic name for the river the Greeks named Orontes. Asi romanized: al-‘Āṣī, Turkish: Asi) has a length of 571 kilometres (355 mi) in Western Asia that begins in Lebanon, flowing northwards through Syria before entering the Mediterranean Sea near Samandağ in Turkey. As the chief river of the northern Levant, Asi was the site of several major battles. Among the most important cities on the river are Homs, Hama, Jisr al-Shughur, and Antakya, the ancient Antioch. In the 9th century BCE, we find that the ancient Assyrians referred to the river as Arantu. Some sources indicate that the etymology could derive from Arnt which means "lioness" in Syriac languages. Arantu gradually became "Orontes" in the Greek. The Arameans called the riveri Alimasi, a "water goddess" in Aramaic. Before the Greeks named it Orontes, according to thei geographer Strabo (in Geographica, circa 20 CE), the river was originally named Typhon, because it was said that Zeus had struck the dragon Typhon down from the sky with thunder, and the river had formed where Typhon's body had fallen. This is telling for there is the myth of Aphrodite the river and Typhon in the mix.
Isis (Ancient Egyptian: 𓊨𓏏𓆇𓁐, romanized: Ꜣūsat;[2] Coptic: Ⲏⲥⲉ Ēse; Classical Greek: Ἶσις; Meroitic: 𐦥𐦣𐦯 Wos[a] or Wusa; Phoenician: 𐤀𐤎,[4] romanized: ʾs) was a major goddess in ancient Egyptian religion whose worship spread throughout the Greco-Roman world. Isis was first mentioned in the Old Kingdom (c. 2686 – c. 2181 BCE) as one of the main characters of the Osiris myth, in which she resurrects her slain brother and husband, the divine king Osiris, and produces and protects his heir, Horus. She was believed to help the dead enter the afterlife as she had helped Osiris, and she was considered the divine mother of the pharaoh, who was likened to Horus. Her maternal aid was invoked in healing spells to benefit ordinary people. She was usually portrayed in art as a human woman wearing a throne-like hieroglyph on her head. During the New Kingdom (c. 1550 – c. 1070 BCE), as she took on traits that originally belonged to Hathor, the preeminent goddess of earlier times, Isis was portrayed wearing Hathor's headdress: a sun disk between the horns of a cow.Whereas some Egyptian deities appeared in the late Predynastic Period (before c. 3100 BCE), neither Isis nor her husband Osiris were mentioned by name before the Fifth Dynasty (c. 2494–2345 BCE).Many scholars have focused on Isis's name in trying to determine her origins. Her Egyptian name was written as 𓊨𓏏𓆇𓁐 (ꜣst) and was pronounced Ꜣūsat,[2] which became ⲎⲤⲈ (Ēse) in the Coptic form of Egyptian, Wusa in the Meroitic language of Nubia, and Ἶσις, on which her modern name is based, in Greek.[14][Note 2] The hieroglyphic writing of her name incorporates the sign for a throne, which Isis also wears on her head as a sign of her identity. The symbol serves as a phonogram, spelling the st sounds in her name, but it may have also represented a link with actual thrones. The Egyptian term for a throne was also st and may have shared a common etymology with Isis's name. Isis is treated as the mother of Horus even in the earliest copies of the Pyramid Texts. Yet there are signs that Hathor was originally regarded as his mother, In the developed form of the myth, Isis gives birth to Horus, after a long pregnancy and a difficult labor, in the papyrus thickets of the Nile Delta. As her child grows she must protect him from Set and many other hazards—snakes, scorpions, and simple illness. In some texts, Isis travels among humans and must seek their help.Isis continues to assist her son when he challenges Set to claim the kingship that Set has usurped, although mother and son are sometimes portrayed in conflict, as when Horus beheads Isis and she replaces her original head with that of a cow—an origin myth explaining the cow-horn headdress that Isis wears.[41]
Isis's maternal aspect extended to other deities as well. The Coffin Texts from the Middle Kingdom (c. 2055–1650 BCE) say the Four sons of Horus, funerary deities who were thought to protect the internal organs of the deceased, were the offspring of Isis and the elder form of Horus.[42] In the same era, Horus was syncretized with the fertility god Min, so Isis was regarded as Min's mother.[43] A form of Min known as Kamutef, "bull of his mother", who represented the cyclical regeneration of the gods and of kingship, was said to impregnate his mother to engender himself.[44] Thus, Isis was also regarded as Min's consort.[45] The same ideology of kingship may lie behind a tradition, found in a few texts, that Horus raped Isis.[46][47] Amun, the foremost Egyptian deity during the Middle and New Kingdoms, also took on the role of Kamutef, and when he was in this form, Isis often acted as his consort. Apis, a bull that was worshipped as a living god at Memphis, was said to be Isis's son, fathered by a form of Osiris known as Osiris-Apis. The biological mother of each Apis bull was thus known as the "Isis cow".
Isis's actions in protecting Osiris against Set became part of a larger, more warlike aspect of her character. New Kingdom funerary texts portray Isis in the barque of Ra as he sails through the underworld, acting as one of several deities who subdue Ra's archenemy, Apep. Kings also called upon her protective magical power against human enemies.She offers to cure Ra if he will tell her his true, secret name—a piece of knowledge that carries with it incomparable power. After much coercion, Ra tells her his name, which she passes on to Horus, bolstering his royal authority. The story may be meant as an origin story to explain why Isis's magical ability surpasses that of other deities, but because she uses magic to subdue Ra, the story seems to treat her as having such abilities even before learning his name. In her Ptolemaic temple at Philae, which lay near the frontier with Nubian peoples who raided Egypt, she was described as the protectress of the entire nation, more effective in battle than "millions of soldiers", supporting Ptolemaic kings and Roman emperors in their efforts to subdue Egypt's enemies.
Isis was said to be the mother of Bastet by Ra. Goddess of kingship and protection of the kingdomBy Ptolemaic times she was connected with rain, which Egyptian texts call a "Nile in the sky"; with the sun as the protector of Ra's barque;[66] and with the moon, possibly because she was linked with the Greek lunar goddess Artemis by a shared connection with an Egyptian fertility goddess, Bastet.
Josephus has Essaios, which is usually assumed to mean Essene ("Judas of the Essaios race"; "Simon of the Essaios race"; "John the Essaios"; "those who are called by us Essaioi"; "Simon a man of the Essaios race"). Josephus identified the Essenes as one of the three major Jewish sects of that period.
Philo's usage is Essaioi, although he admits this Greek form of the original name, that according to his etymology signifies "holiness", to be inexact.Another theory is that the name was borrowed from a cult of devotees to Artemis in Anatolia, whose demeanor and dress somewhat resembled those of the group in Judea.Their theology included belief in the immortality of the soul and that they would receive their souls back after death.
The feminine effervescence. Two intuitive poems inspired by the feminine
Echoes of the womb
The womb,
the infinite depth of existence
where the pulse of every heart emerges,
just like magic.
It resides in you,
in the ones who came before you.
The cosmic womb,
where stars are formed,
where life is created.
Yes, you hold all that my love,
retrieved into your feminine landscape,
your temple.
You carry the essence of life,
the most precious gift.
You hold the magic void of infinity,
which gives rise to unique earthly creations.
The moon dances around us.
Spiraling our inner oceans.
Caressing the shore of our mother, earth.
Renewing the fabric of our wombs.
Together, we hormonally dance to its rhythm.
This is the uniting force of the feminine rhythm.
Yes, in sisterhood our flow synchronizes.
The divine cyclical cosmic pulse lives within you,
within us all.
You are not alone swaying from dark to light.
Embrace your rhythm.
Embrace OUR rhythm,
passed down generation after generation.
We/You carry the magic.
Mysteriously, yet organically,
we carry the pulse of life in our wombs.
We are the divine carriers of the gift of life.
Remember that.
EGYPTIAN HIEROGLYPHAISHI / ASY / ASSIA
ASY/ASHIA the uniting principal of creation, the ancient Egyptian name for Cyprus was expresed as above in Hiorogliph. For more detail on this Hierogliph see post on 'Trilingual' that posits that Asy was substituted by Kypri as the name for Cyprus, and how the root consonant 'K' become the graphic representing the same still-point of conjunction, as the graphic SS.
Asherah (/ˈæʃərə/;[3] Hebrew: אֲשֵׁרָה, romanized: ʾĂšērā; in ancient Semitic religion, is a fertility goddess who appears in a number of ancient sources. She also appears in Hittite writings as Ašerdu(s) or Ašertu(s) (Hittite: 𒀀𒊺𒅕𒌈, romanized: a-še-ir-tu). She appears to champion her son, Yam, god of the sea, in his struggle against Baʾal. Yam's ascription as god of the sea in the English translation is somewhat misleading, however, as yām (Hebrew: יָם) is a common western Semitic root that literally means "sea". Consequently, one should understand Yam to be the deified sea itself rather than a deity who holds dominion over it. Athirat's title can therefore be translated as "Lady ʾAṯirat of the Sea", alternatively, "she who walks on the sea", or even "the Great Lady-who-tramples-Yam". A suggestion in 2010 by a scholar is that the name Athirat might be derived from a passive participle form, referring to the "one followed by (the gods)", that is, "pro-genitress or originatress", which would correspond to Asherah's image as the "mother of the gods" in Ugaritic literature. However Asherah is now well known from the Ugaritic texts, where she is called rabbatu atiratu yammi ("Lady Athirat of the Sea"). The name is most probably to be understood as a feminine participle of the verb ʾṯr (Heb. ʾshr "to go, to tread"), thus meaning "The Lady who Treads upon the Sea." Alternatively, it is possible that the name indicates some connection of Asherah with the sea. She has been identified by some with the Cyprian Aphrodite, the goddess intimately connected with harbors (as well as with love). Asherah is apparently (although not explicitly) the consort of El, the father and creator of the gods (she is called qaniyatu el-îma, "The Progenitress of the Gods"), who are accordingly called "the [70] children of Asherah." Similarly, the gods are also called "sons of Qudšu" ("holiness"), which, like ʾelat ("goddess"), is to be taken as an epithet of Asherah. The title "Qudšu" connects Asherah to the Egyptian figurines of nude goddesses commonly identified as fertility figurines. They show a nude goddess en face, frequently with a lion, and are inscribed qdŠ (qudšu). Yam (Ugaritic: 𐎊, romanized: Yammu; “sea”) was a god representing the sea and other sources of water worshiped in various locations on the eastern Mediterranean coast, as well as further inland in modern Syria.Yamm was the name of the Tyrannical god of the sea found and know of from a fragmentary papyrus (Astarte Papyrus) which seems to hint that his exorbitant demands for tribute from the other deities were eventually thwarted by the goddess Astarte.
In iconagraphy some scholars have found an early link between Asherah and Eve, based upon their common title as "the mother of all living" in the Book of Genesis 3:20. There is further speculation that the Shekhinah as a feminine aspect of Yahweh, may be a cultural memory or devolution of Asherah.
In Christian scripture, the Holy Spirit is represented by a dove — a ubiquitous symbol of goddess religions, as with Aphrodite, also found on Hebrew naos shrines. Goddess symbology nevertheless persists in Christian iconography; Israel Morrow notes that while Christian art typically displays female angels with avian wings, the only biblical reference to such figures comes through Zechariah's vision of pagan goddesses.
Ugaritic amulets show a miniature "tree of life" growing out of Asherah's belly. Accordingly, Asherah poles, which were sacred trees or poles, are mentioned many times in the Hebrew Bible, rendered as palus sacer (sacred poles) in the Latin Vulgate. Asherah poles were prohibited by the Deuteronomic Code that commanded "You shall not plant any tree as an Asherah beside the altar of the Lord your God". The prohibition, as Dever notes, is also a testament to the practice of putting up Asherah poles beside Yahweh's altars (cf. 2 Kings 21:7) amongst Israelites. Another significant biblical reference occurs in the legend of Deborah, a female ruler of Israel who held court under a sacred tree (Book of Judges 4:5), which was preserved for many generations.

The lioness made a ubiquitous symbol for goddesses of the ancient Middle East that was similar to the dove and the tree. Lionesses figure prominently in Asherah's iconography, including the tenth century BC Ta'anach cult stand, which also includes the tree motif. A Hebrew arrowhead from eleventh century BC bears the inscription "Servant of the Lion Lady".
A letter from Tell Taanach from the 15th century b.c.e. refers to an uban (for umman) Aširat ("a sage of Aširat"). A Late Hittite tablet contains a myth in which Asherah tries unsuccessfully to seduce Baal and complains to Elkunirša (El-qnhʾrs; "El the world-Creator," cf. Gen. 14:19) that Baal has insulted her. In the Ugaritic Epic of Keret, Asherah is called "Asherah of the Sidonians, goddess of the Tyrians," and was thus intimately connected with the cities of the Phoenician coast. She was brought into the court worship of Israel by *Jezebel, the daughter of the king of Tyre, who also brought with her the cult of the Tyrian Baal. Thus it is related that Elijah vanquished the 450 prophets of Baal and the 400 prophets of Asherah who "dined off Jezebel's table" (i Kings 18:19). Earlier, Maacah, the mother of King *Asa, built an abominable image for Asherah (la-Asherah) and was therefore removed from the post of queen mother (i Kings 15:13; ii Chron. 15:16). The last case of royal worship of Asherah was in the time of Manasseh, who placed an idol of Asherah in the Temple (ii Kings 21:7), from which it was removed by Josiah (ii Kings 23:6). During the Israelite period, the worship of Asherah was generally connected with the worship of Baal; the phrase "Baalim and Asheroth" is used to designate foreign gods in general (e.g., Judg. 3:7), and the term Asheroth is used as a synonym for "goddesses."
Assiah (also 'Asiya' or 'Asiyah, also known as Olam Asiyah, עוֹלָם עֲשִׂיָּה in Hebrew, literally "the World of Action" and Aishah in Arabic) is the last of the four spiritual worlds of the Kabbalah —Atziluth, Beriah, Yetzirah, 'Asiyah — based on the passage in Isaiah 43:7. It is identical with the existing world that we live in. According to the system of the later Land of Israel Kabbalah, 'Asiyah is the lowest of the spiritual worlds containing the Ten Heavens and the whole system of mundane Creation. The light of the Sefirot emanates from these Ten Heavens, which are called the "Ten Sefirot of 'Asiyah"; and through them spirituality and piety are imparted to the realm of matter—the seat of the dark and impure powers.
Representing purely material existence, it is known as the World of Action, the World of Effects or the World of Making. In western occultism it is associated with the Suit of Pentacles (or Coins or Disks, the terminology varies according to the deck) in the Tarot. The world of Yetzirah precedes it. It corespondes with the final letter hei ה in the Tetragrammaton.
The name Aishah is of Arabic origin and in Arabic the meaning of the name Aishah is: Woman. Life.
Aisyah is used in more than one country in different languages of the world, especially African countries, Arabic speaking countries, English speaking countries, Hindi speaking countries, Swahili speaking countries among others. Aisha (Arabic: عائشة, romanized: ʿĀʾishah, also spelled, Aisya, Aisyah literally translates to 'She who lives' as in the She the feminine principle the Goddess if you like or 'womanly', She also represents 'life, as in vivacious alive, lively in a feminine sense as in "She who alive, She who is life." A female given name: from a Swahili word meaning “life.”
Alashiya (Akkadian: 𒀀𒆷𒅆𒅀 Alašiya [a-la-ši-ia]; Ugaritic: 𐎀𐎍𐎘𐎊 ẢLṮY; Linear B: Alasios [a-ra-si-jo]), also spelled Alasiya, also known as the Kingdom of Alashiya,[1] was a state which existed in the Middle and Late Bronze Ages, and was situated somewhere in the Eastern Mediterranean. It was a major source of goods, especially copper, for ancient Egypt and other states in the Ancient Near East. It is referred to in a number of the surviving texts and is now thought to be the ancient name of Cyprus, or an area of Cyprus. This was confirmed by the scientific analysis performed in the Tel Aviv University of the clay tablets which were sent from Alashiya to other rulers.The name of the state, rendered as Alashiya, is found on texts written in Egyptian, Hittite, Akkadian, Mycenean (Linear B) and Ugaritic. It corresponds to the Biblical Elishah, thus meaning something like "under the god's protection" or "god's country", Some of the Amarna letters are from the king or the ministers of Alashiya. It is relevent that at the time of the writings the Island was under the protection of a Goddess not a God, sao the meaning cxould be "under the protection of the Goddess". The extant ending of the Story of Wenamun records how Wenamun, a priest of Egypt, had been blown off course on the sea journey from Byblos to Egypt and ended up on Alashiya.The identification of Cyprus with Alashiya was confirmed by the 2003 publication by Goren et al. of an article in the American Journal of Archaeology detailing the petrographic and chemical analysis of a number of the Amarna and Ugaritic letters sent from Alashiya. These examinations of the provenance of the clay used to create the tablets indicate that Syria could not be the location of Alashiya, while clay on Cyprus is a good match. Wenamun reports that he was almost killed by an angry mob, but was rescued by Hatbi, the "princess of the town". In turkish aşı 'ashi' aşı-lama, is a graft, a shoot, a scion, an offshoot, issue, offspring, decendent heir, sucsessor, a child. A female scion is a female descendant or an heiress, especially of a wealthy or important family.
A descendant as in a person in line of ancestry. brood. child. children.
The word scion is inherited from Old French cion, ciun, from Frankish *kiþō, from Proto-Germanic *kīþô, *kīþą, from Proto-Indo-European *geye- (“to split open, to sprout”). KyBo-RhEa.Cyprus. Rhea or Rheia is a mother goddess in ancient Greek religion and Greek mythology, the Titaness daughter of the earth goddess Gaia and the sky god Uranus. She was the mother of the gods, and goddess of female fertility, motherhood, and generation. Her name means "flow" and "ease." She represented the eternal flow of time and generations; as the great Mother (Meter Megale), the "flow" was menstrual blood, birth waters, and milk. She was also a goddess of comfort and ease, a blessing reflected in the common Homeric phrase "the gods who live at their ease (rhea). "Rhea was closely identified with the Anatolian mother-pre-Hellenic in origin, who was worshipped sporadically throughout the Greek world. She was associated with fruitfulness goddess Kybele (Cybele). They were both depicted as matronly women, usually wearing a turret crown, and attended by lions.
At some point in time it is said that God put Adam to SLEEP and OPENED HIS SIDE and took a rib from him in order to create Eve. Christ also had the same happen to him. This sounds very much like the art of grafting. Regardless of the type, there are three major steps in performing the graft – preparing the stock and the scion, inserting the scion and lining up the cambium of the scion with the cambium in a stock, and securing the graft by wrapping it with grafting tape or another suitable tape and sealing it with grafting wax. The main reason for grafting is to preserve and perpetuate the cultivars we love, but there are many benefits, like overcoming issues with the soil environment, producing a tree of smaller size, changing the existing cultivar over to another that is more productive or more disease-tolerant, or producing certain plant forms.
The name Elisha is both a boy's name and a girl's name of Hebrew origin meaning "God is my salvation". Elisha (ee-LYE-sha) is an Old Testament male name, sometimes borrowed for girls, it is also used as a spelling variant of Alicia or Elysia.
