Smiling brightly she said "Pleased to meet you Cela! I'm Roxanna De Rivera. But call me Roxxy." Pulling out a parchment she asked "Magical numbers aren't like muggle numbers right? Cause i'm not so good with muggle maths."
"Its just like adding." Cela explained, "And this other thing called reducing which just means making the number equal one digit. Its kind of fun."
She opened her
textbook to the right
page.
"We're using the Pythagorean number system." Cela began, "And our task is to calculate our
life path and
expression numbers." Cela marked the appropriate pages with little coloured flags of parchment.
"So for the Life Path number, its calculating the reduced sum of your birthdate, and for the Destiny or Expression number, its the reduced sum of your full name. Except you calculate mine, and I calculate yours."
Cela wrote hers down on a scrap of parchment.

"For the part with the name, you assign a number to each letter based on that chart there." She pointed at the pythagorean numbers. "Once we do that, we'll get to the adding and reducing." She suggested brightly.
