Joseph ben Abraham Gikatilla was a Spanish rabbi and kabbalist. He was a student of Rabbi Abraham Abulafia and, like his teacher, focused on mystical combinations of letters, numbers, and divine names.

His work Sha'arei Orah, a dictionary of the kabbalistic symbolism of the sefirot, was considered a fundamental and even indispensable work by later sages.
