I’m trying to get to grips with what this term means. I’m interested in mysticism, philosophy etc and it seems like a fascinating idea especially considering the symbolism of the Aleph.
I have absolutely no maths knowledge… Just a GCSE in maths and some mental arithmetic.
Edit; thanks everyone for your useful responses!!

It is the cardinality of the set of natural numbers. Also known as the garden variety “infinite”. There are higher aleph numbers and “more infinite” infinities – for example, the set of real numbers have an aleph number higher than 0. In addition to being infinite the “normal way” by always being able to name a larger number than the previous, there are also infinite real numbers *between* any two real numbers, not matter how close they are.
