Kameas

Kamea is the Hebrew term for a magic square. The Kamea (or Magic Squre) is a table of numbers arranged in a fashion so that the sum of any row or column is equal to the sum of any other row or column. Generally sum of either diagonal is equal to the sum of any row or column as well, but this is not always the case. The Seven Kameas listed below are the Kameas traditionally associated with the seven classical planets. With the exception of Mercury all of these traditional Kameas have diagonals sums equal to the linear sum. In Qabalistic philosophy each of the Classic planets is also associated with a Sephirah on the Tree of life.
