Properties of the number 15
Symbolism
Represent the perfect three-dimensional expression - 3 X 5.
The Fathers of the Church frequently associate 15 to the two Testaments because it constitutes the sum of 7, the Sabbath, and 8, the Resurrection (the Sabbath representing the period covered by the Old Testament, and the Resurrection, the period covered by the New Testament).
According to R. Allendy, this number "represents the vital whirlwind 5, animating the cosmos 10, to father the world of the creatures to the image of the Archetype - 1 + 5 = 6. Odd and triangular number, 15 is a dynamic and creative agent; it represents the blooming of the life in the creation".

It is the spiritual ascension seal, according to Cornelius Agrippa.
For Eckartshausen, it is "the number of the spiritual resurrection, the number of the commandments and the generation".
J. Boehme calls it "the desire the divine love".
According to Creusot, it is the number of Satan, who is developing only in the man such a virus. He imposes subtly his wills, causing blind passions, ephemeral pleasures and degrading.
According to Guy Tarade, it is the number of the man, the human spirit, holy or satanic.
