Description:

Ν, or Nu, is the 13th letter of the Greek alphabet. It originated from the Phoenician letter nun, which also represented the sound /n/. In Greek, Nu continues to represent the same /n/ sound. In terms of esoteric, Kabbalistic, or spiritual meanings, Nu is associated with the concept of eternity and infinity in some traditions. In Kabbalah, Nu symbolizes the concept of Perpetual Motion, representing the endless cycle of creation and destruction. In ancient Greek culture, Nu was sometimes used as a symbol of life and fertility due to its resemblance to a sprout or a fish. In modern times, it is often found in scientific contexts, such as in mathematics and physics, where it represents values such as frequency, viscosity, or specific volume. Overall, Nu has a rich history both linguistically and symbolically, embodying concepts of eternal cycles, life, and the infinite.
