SPOILER!!: Professor Hadley

Tayla flipped to the previous chapter and read the description for the Growth Number. She thought about why it would relate more to the Family Name Number than to the Life Path.

"Professor," Tayla began as she raised her hand. "I noticed that the Growth Number is calculated using a person's first name. And, as the name suggests, the Family Name Number is calculated using one's family name. So..." Tayla paused, trying to figure out how to word her answer. "Perhaps it's because...they...connect...or are partners...somehow...for a person's name.

"And I guess...it's because family is a great influence on a person's growth, especially during the earlier years. But..." Tayla paused again, a sudden thought of Sirius Black from history popping into her head.

"But I don't think it's the case for everyone. I'm sure it's known that there are some people who grow up to be very different from their families."

Alas, seeing as everyone - or nearly everyone - had done their calculations for a historical figure, Fina figured it time to move on, which she walked back up to the front. "So now that it seems like many of you have figured out the Family Name number," Fina paused, waiting for any objections to this. "Which represents your inner subconscious to life, as seen in one's surname, we're going to move onto another number which is somewhat related. Keep those historical figures you calculated the family name number for in mind though." They would use it for the new number. "This number is indicative of your greatest potential for self-actualization as you journey through life. The textbook says it to be related to one of your core numbers, but I actually find that it goes better with your Family Name Number." Greatest potential.... inner subconscious.... it was all related, yes? "So any guesses as to what number this is?"
