"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.

Great they were just adding and reducing. They weren't multiplying or doing something worse. Roxxy was good and the simple math and felt her confidence rise a little. With Cela's help she knew that she would get the hand of all the Arithmancy calculating in no time. Opening her own textbook Roxxy circled the right pages before turning to Cela "Okay, its sounds fun. Which should we start with, the Destiny number?"

Taking up her quill Roxxy wrote down her own information on a bit of parcment.

Pushing the parchment over to Cela she looked into her textbook to read more on the pythagorean number and which number was assigned to which letter.
