"Purpose. Yes. Key points all covered. Thank you Destiny number." Not to be confused with Destiny person. Nope! These kids were all so creative in their descriptions though, Fina was slightly envious.



Nearly bursting out in amusement with Cedric started to introduce himself, Fina nodded as he quickly corrected himself into the point of view of a Heart Desire number. Very nice. "Yes, yes. Don't forget that this number also hints about your values."



Nodding at the fourth and final core number, she was about to agree when she frowned suddenly. "Consonant, you mean." She corrected the girl, with a soft smile. "But yes, precisely. The personality number basically describes the traits that people see. "


Nodding at each of the volunteers, she turned back to the class. "Let's give a hearty round of applause for their wonderful improvisation efforts on being a core number!" Clapping herself, she looked at each again. "Thank you. You may each take your seats again."

"We're now going to move onto the calculation part of the lesson. But to do this I want to make one thing clear; we're all not perfect. I don't expect you to be perfect in your calculations, but I do expect you to try." Josephina explained, laying out the ground rules for calculations. "I understand math isn't all your strongpoints, which is also completely fine. But again, just try. Focus and concentrate, as there is no rush. We'll be starting with the Life Path and Destiny numbers at first."

Flicking her wand at the board, more writing appeared;

Life Path Number
DOB: 2 April 2044
4 + 2 + (2+0+4+4)
4 + 2 + 10
4 + 2 + 1

Life path number = 7

Expression/Destiny Number
Full Name: Josephina Faith Hadley
J O S E P H I N A______F A I T H___H A D L E Y
1+6+1+5+7+8+9+5+1 6+1+9+2+8 8+1+4+3+5+7
(43) + (26) + (28)
7 + 8 + 10
7 + 8 + 1
16/7

Expression/Destiny Number = 7


"Special considerations are to please make sure you add and reduce each component up first before totaling. For instance, I added all the numbers up in my first name, Josephina, to be 43 and then reduced it to 7 before adding that to the reduced digit for my middle and last names," Fina explained, pointed it out to the students. While chances are it shouldn't make a difference, it was best to be consistent and follow that format regardless.

"One more thing before you go ahead and calculate the Destiny and Life Path Numbers. I want you to each partner up with someone you do not know at all or very well. I don't want to see best friends or significant others be partners. And I want you to exchange names and birthdates and calculate each others' numbers." Why? Because it is easy to calculate your number and make it fit for you, but calculating someone else's is a whole different ballpark. "Any questions, please ask me."




***

OOC Notes:
  • Find a partner you don't know
  • Exchange full names and birthdates
  • Calculate your partners' expression and life path numbers
  • Read the textbook interpretation and determine accuracy
  • When done, do NOT chat Unless you want MORE points lost *eyes* I won't hesitate to do it either, but rather sit quietly / don't post and wait for me to post up the next two numbers
  • Don't go ahead and calculate the other numbers [in here] before I post up instructions.
  • Have fun with the interpretations!
  • Questions? Ask me ^__^
  • Finally, there is a good chance I won't be back to continue with the lesson until Midnight EST tonight, the 13th? 5am GMT on the 14th, so no rush. <3


Iris listened to the volunteers pretend to be the Core Numbers, and it was a good job too, because she'd forgotten the most of them. She listened to the Professor (Whose name Iris couldn't remember. Oops.) explain what they were doing, Hmm. A stranger. Fair enough. That would just make working the Life Path number and Destiny Number more fun, because there was nothing for you to work on.

It would be like pretending to be one of those Muggle fortune tellers that you see in the really old muggle movies and stories. hehe.

Getting up from her seat, she sighed and shrugged at Jimbo, "Sorry, Mate; I can't work with you. I know you too well."

And then walked over to a student who looked pretty partner-less, "Hi, I'm Iris. Do you need a partner?" She asked them cheerfully.

Well, you may as well be cheerful. Arithmancy was like Divination for SMART people. What wasn't there to be cheerful about?
