ABRACADABRA

A Kabbalistic Word That the Ancients attributed the magical virtue of curing illnesses, protection and power. The letters of ABRACADABRA were removed from the first or last letter successively. The texts formed were reduced until there was only one letter (A), which gave the shape of a triangle, so that it could be read in more than one direction. It was worn around the neck, written on parchment The alchemists considered it a triangular symbol of the Cosmic Whole.
