Your life, therefore, can be visualized as a musical score, with the individual letters making specific contributions at given points, just as notes in a musical piece are played at specific moments to give a piece of music its rhythm, character, and nuance. Each note or letter has a specific duration and influence over your life during a specific period of time." She put the book down and returned her attention to the class.

"Most of you chose your songs because they resonated deeply with some part of your life. The letters in your name act in a similar fashion. These will be what we use today to help us find our Transit Cycles." She figured most of them had at least seen the term whilst flipping through their textbook. "The Transit Cycles work in conjunction with the Essence Cycles, but we won't have time to get to those today. There are three transits: the physical, mental, and spiritual. Each is derived from your first, middle, and last name respectively. Together, they give an overall view of your life stages and how long each stage will last."

She turned and wrote TIARA on the board. "My first name is my physical cycle. Chapter 28 of your textbook has the meanings for each letter of my name. Since T has a value of 2 in the Pythagorean system, the interpretation for T lasts approximately 2 years." They remembered to find those values in chapter two, right? "Please look up the meaning for T, read it through, and suggest how in the world it could apply to my physical transit from birth to two years old. All ideas are welcome, inside or outside the box." Really, it would be a challenge for such a young age range.


OOC: 'Book' excerpt taken from here.


Alright Kace got this kind of? He shrugged and began to look in his textbook to see what the letter T meant. He skimmed through and copied it down in his notes just so the Professor could see...

SPOILER!!: Notes

T: This is a time of strain and high-strung emotions. You are willing to sacrifice and carry your burdens heroically, but you will have to guard against self-pity. You will benefit from solitude and meditation. You are looking for new activities and are eager to learn. You have a strong desire for knowledge. This is a good and rewarding time for business and new partnerships but you have to guard your territory against those seeking to interfere in your work. There will be opportunities to travel and see the world.


Now she wanted to know how it applied to her physical transit? Whatever that meant. She wanted to know how it applied to her birth year to two years old. Ermm let's see here. He began to reread it and then it clicked. He raised his hand and gave his answer. "Professor I know that when you are a child you will be okay with being alone for a bit. It will help you find ways to learn about the world and learn things on your own. It will benefit you in the long run. You can even make new friends when you were a toddler? You will need to be cautious of how much you share with your friends though but I mean it wouldn't matter TOO much since you can't really talk when ur a toddler." he added in with a sheepish grin.

Did he answer the question? He hoped he did!
