The Cube of Space is an occult concept that was invented by the prominent occultist Paul Foster Case. The Cube of Space associates the three axes of the cube, the center point of the cube, the six sides of the cube, and the twelve edges of the cube, with the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. The concept of the Cube of Space originates from two verses found in the early Kabbalistic text, the Sepher Yetzirah, specifically within chapters 4 and 5. The verse from chapter 4 correlates six Hebrew letters to the six principal directions: up, down, east, west, north, and south. The verse in chapter 5 associates 12 hebrew letters with either 12 diagonal directional 'arms' or 12 diagonal boundaries (different translations contradict each other), which would refer to the 12 edges of an octahedron, though Paul Foster Case interpreted these as the 12 edges of a cube.
