Professor Crispe is waiting in the classroom for the students to arrive, once again there is nothing of particular note in here, its just a classroom, the usual desks and chairs and Professor Crispe's name written on the blackboard.
He greets you as you walk in to the class.
ooc: sorry for the delay opening the lesson, things happened.
"So some of you had no arrows, others had several. Some of you had more than one of a particular number and that is what we are looking at today. There are different meanings where there are multiples of a number appearing in your birthdate and therefore in your square. I want some volunteers to come up to the board and draw their square."
Nancy was glancing down at her notes from last lesson which of course included her drawn squares and arrows. And Professor Crispe had mentioned interpretation last time so there. "I'd like to volunteer too, Professor." The 17 year old replied, raising her hand - the one which was still holding her quill.
Sidney looks at the squares she did in the last class. I have multiple numbers: three 2's and two 1's. That's about it, so I guess my chart would qualify. "Professor, I volunteer if you need another person."
"But--!!" She sighed. It wouldn't do any good to argue with the teacher. She shrank back a little and pulled down the hood, revealing a set of cat ears that had folded down in her embarassment. There was no way she was going to someone for this. She did it, and she was going to fix it! She sighed. They were really cute otherwise, and would make for a great costume potion! Well, if they were temporary.
Opened her notebook and looked down at her grid. Nope... nothing repeated. Was that weird?
Ella was fond of the professor. Even though she had very little memory of what had gone on in the previous class, he had approved. And he liked Gryffindors, apparently, and that was a plus.
She didn't want to participate because she thought it would be embarrassing to get something wrong. She decided to watch the others for now, and definitely learn from them.
Chris watch as a few students volunteered excitedly for Professor Crispe. He was glad that they wanted to participate and was happy that Professor Crispe, as a new Professor, was getting treated well and getting settled in nicely.
He would have volunteered had there not been so many volunteers before him, and if he had a more concrete understanding of what had happened last lesson. He had learned how to make the squares, but he was still a bit shaky on their meanings and what not, so the Gryffindor Prefect was content in watching his classmates take part in the excercie.
AND! He wanted volunteers. Gold raised a hand in the air. "Can I, sir?" she asked politely. She knew what Professor Crispe wanted them to do, but was not sure if they were allowed to walk to the board, and draw their 3 x 3 grid, yet. Best to make sure, they were.
Yep.

Not letting his attitude towards her get her down she raised her hand when he asked for volunteers. "Sir, I'll do it," she said sounding as happy as she could. She had a strange feeling he wouldn't let her do this but she didn't care, she was still going to let him know she was willing to volunteer.

"Alright. Yes all of you to the front, write your square and label it with your name, house and year on the board." Of course Crispy smiled at the Gryffindors. So eager to learn weren't they?

Crispy recoiled.
"You can put your hood back on." He muttered something about Slytherins under his breath.
"Alright. Does anyone know what Karmic Numbers are?" Someone surely had some idea.

Chris knew this answer! The Prefect raised his hand and then spoke, "Professor
Your karmic number is the interpretation telling you what you need to do in order to correct your actions from previous lives."
Herminny raised her hand to add to what was said, "Sir you're karmic number can also give you invaluable information on how to reep the rewards of the seeds one sows in this life. I find this a little more relavant because I personally don't believe in previous lives".

Carter grabbed his parchment of notes from the first lesson and headed to the board. he wrote down his square and labeled it.
Arrow of Emotions Positive 2,5,8
These people usually make good performers, and can often be quite intense and serious. Some are emotional drama queens. They often like to give advice to others even when their own life is secretly a mess. By becoming aware of their emotions, they gain control over them rather than have their emotions control their life. Once they do this they show great depth of understanding and are emotionally balanced.
Arrow of Poor Memory Negative 3,6,9
These people can be forgetful and absent-minded. This doesn’t mean that they are not clever, they just need to use it or lose it. Some are very smart and witty. They have to work hard at keeping their brains active or there is a tendency to forget things and be mentally dull. They won’t always apply logical thought to situations. Their memory gets worse over time.

Gold rose to her feet, resisted the urge to hug Professor Crispe on her way to the board - he did, after all, look like such a teddy bear - and, once there, picked up a piece of chalk to draw up a 3 x 3 table.

Gold stepped away from the board, and raised a hand. She wasn't so sure of her answer, but it was worth a try, right?
"They have to do with the principle of karma, don't they, sir? That we reap what we sow. They can help one get an insight into the subconscious, can pinpoint what the heart has to say - what one fears, desires or hopes for - and can tell how the best of intentions don't always give the best of results, and what you must learn in the present and the time to come."
"... and like everyone else has said, they help one figure out what to do to rectify mistakes one might have made in one's previous lives, and how to gain from what one does, in this life."
She was pretty sure she was mixing up some stuff here. But at least she had tried, and that was better than saying nothing at all.
Sidney is pleased to be able to help with class. She walks up to the board, waves her wand and her information appears on the board.

Sidney turns around from the black board. "The Karmic Number is a number that decribes your secret fears, hopes and fantasies. It's also represents the mysteries of the unknown. The number is suppose to describe the inner you. The person you are on a subconcious level. The Karmic Number also has the odd quality of describing how someone might see you as a first impression."

"Alright. Does anyone know what Karmic Numbers are?" Someone surely had some idea.
Cedric raised his hand confidently, "Karmic numbers serves as our guide or it generally tell us by its interpretation what we need to do so that we can make or correct our wrongdoings in our past lives. And another usage of Karmic numbers is it gives us ideas how others sees us when it comes to first impressions." he deliberately answered with a glum smile.

SPOILER!!: Meaning of Marie's Arrows
Positive Arrows
Arrow of Planning: These people have good planning and organisational skills. They are able to make plans, recognise their goals and work out the best way to achieve them. However, they need to leave room for spontaneity and fun as they tend to over-plan. They will often have copious notes with everything written down, and a well planned diary. They often skip the details in order to see the bigger picture.

Once she was back at her seat she glanced through her book for Karmic Numbers. Raising her hand she said "Sir, Karmic numbers tell you what you need to do in order to correct your actions from previous lives. All the letters of your birth name are used to figure this number."

Arrow of Inactivity
These people lack motivation and get up and go. They need to be encouraged to get out and experience everything life has to offer, using physical games and exercises to keep themselves moving. They prefer contemplating and perfecting their ideas before acting. They hesitate and procrastinate. However, if they learn self-discipline and set realistic and achievable goals for themselves, they will become high achievers. They need to take action rather than just think about it.

"Those of you who mentioned correcting mistakes in a previous life or reep the rewards sown in this life are correct." Crispy beamed widely at Herminny, Chris, Gold and Carter. So bright and brilliant. Just like he was when he was a young Gryffindor.
"Numbers that are completely missing from someone’s grid indicate lessons that the person must learn in this lifetime. This life and future lives will improve if these lessons are learnt. And likewise numbers present in the grid have meaning, and the amount of times a particular number appears changes that meaning.

A flurry of papers began to circle the room, one deposited itself on each desk.
Quote:
Presence of Numbers in Grid One
The number 1 shows how a person communicates with others. It also relates to their level of confidence.

3
These people are idealistic and caring. They are happy and positive.
4 nines These people are highly intelligent, but live with their “heads in the clouds”. There is a fine line between genius and insanity, and these people often cross backwards and forwards over that line. They have a lot of mental power, and can change the world for the better if they apply it.

"Alright. Yes all of you to the front, write your square and label it with your name, house and year on the board." Of course Crispy smiled at the Gryffindors. So eager to learn weren't they?
Upon being called at Nancy smiled slightly at Professor Crispe before she swiftly stood up to walk to the front. In her right hand she held on tightly to the parchment which contained her grids from last time. As she started copying her grid from her parchment the 17 year old noticed that Torin had volunteered too. At least somebody she knew who apparently shared her interest in Arithmancy.

--> Negative Arrow of Inactivity
After she had finished with copying her grid Nancy turned around, stepping back from the board and waited expectantly for interesting interpretations from her classmates. Should she go back to her seat? Uuuhm... Blue eyes flickered towards Torin who was still standing right there beside her. Okay, that probably meant stay.
curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog
Jack was...utterly confused. He had gotten lost during the last lesson and was just as lost this lesson. He was starting to slowly catch on though...after staring at the grids for a good five minutes, he thought he had gathered enough info off of Torin's chart to take a crack at interpretting his friend's grid.
"So, Torin doesn't have any 8's on his grid, so according to this sheet you handed out...he needs to work on managing his money in a better way," he said, flashing his friend a playful grin. "But he also has two 5's, which indicates that he is very determined and could probably save the money if he REALLY tried, although it might mess his emotions up cause he's so passionate and emotional," he added.
Tee hee. This explained SO MUCH about Torin. He'd have so much fun heckling his friend later! It would be payback for unintentially starting a fight between him and Reese.

Lina had quickly replaced her hood and sat quiet. She didn't want to do anything more to draw attention to herself. Until... Great, she had a question. Oh well. She raised a little hand as she looked over the charts. "Ms. Hudonson has three twos in her chart, which means that she's very sensitive and intuitive, and can be aloof as they feel seperated from others. 'Complimenting' that, so to speak, is a missing 9 from her chart. This also says that she's aloof, and also says that she tends to overlook others' wants and needs and feelings.
"Though sir, I know that no one is perfect, but everyone has to have one or two missing numbers from their charts, don't they? Today's birthdays only have eight numbers to begin with, and in this century only seven of those could not be zero, which would be two missing numbers. It's difficult enough to not have numbers repeat and have no zeroes, and so I would estimate that anyone born in this millenium would have no less than two missing numbers, and those of this century would have no less than three. Those born before the year 1000 are even more likely to have more missing numbers. Supposing this is all true, does this mean that we're all slowly moving toward perfection, does higher karmic debt come in waves such as with those born in this century and thus all have one zero in our birth dates, and does this mean relieving of ourselves of karmic debt in future lives become exponentially harder?"
"Numbers that are completely missing from someone’s grid indicate lessons that the person must learn in this lifetime. This life and future lives will improve if these lessons are learnt. And likewise numbers present in the grid have meaning, and the amount of times a particular number appears changes that meaning. So lets look at our volunteers grids and identify the meanings held in each individual square. Please raise your hand and identify one missing number and the meaning of one present number in any of the grids on the board. Only one of each please."
A flurry of papers began to circle the room, one deposited itself on each desk.
Gold raised a hand.
"Carter has no nine, sir," she said politely. "That means he can tend to overlook what others are feeling or what they need, or can be aloof -- not get a job done, need to work on giving more of himself. But he also has two two's -" Two twos? Hehe. "Which means he is a smart, sensitive, perceptive and intuitive individual. He can get to know what the motivations of someone else are, and knows tact and diplomacy."
She nearly lowered her hand, frowned, and then raised it fully once more. "Sir?" Her tones were thoughtful. "This means he doesn't really get what others are feeling and - or - need, but it also says that he is perceptive and sensitive. Don't those two statements... sort of contradict each other? Could it be that sometimes, opposite meanings can cancel out, or maybe neutralize, each other? Or bring a balance, some sort of intermediate between the qualities or drawbacks they speak of?"
Sidney looks at the grids on the board and studies the handout that just flew by her. She then raises her hand. "Gold's grid has two number sevens. That means she will learn wisdon from losing something valuable to her like money, love, or her health. I assume because of this loss she will become involved with a psychic or become interested in the occult. Gold also has an analytical mind. That doesn't seem to go together- interest in the occult and an analytical mind."
"Her grid is missing the number nine. According to this, Gold tends to overlook the feelings and needs of others. She is aloof and detached. That probably explains why she overlooks the feelings and needs of others. Gold also doesn't finish what she starts. She can resolve this problem by learning to give more of herself and become a true humanitarian."

WHAT?
That - that - was certainly not going to happen. Gold frowned to herself, as Sidney continued to speak. Pfft... if there was one person that was as far from the terms 'detached' and 'aloof' as is possible, it was her. Gold Laksh. She loved the spotlight, and she certainly .... wait a second! Overlook the needs of others? No way! There was a reason she wanted to be a healer, and an expert one at that!
She resisted the urge to cross her arms against her chest, and was pretty glad when Sidney stopped speaking.

'Complimenting' that, so to speak, is a missing 9 from her chart. This also says that she's aloof, and also says that she tends to overlook others' wants and needs and feelings.
"Though sir, I know that no one is perfect, but everyone has to have one or two missing numbers from their charts, don't they? Today's birthdays only have eight numbers to begin with, and in this century only seven of those could not be zero, which would be two missing numbers. It's difficult enough to not have numbers repeat and have no zeroes, and so I would estimate that anyone born in this millenium would have no less than two missing numbers, and those of this century would have no less than three. Those born before the year 1000 are even more likely to have more missing numbers. Supposing this is all true, does this mean that we're all slowly moving toward perfection, does higher karmic debt come in waves such as with those born in this century and thus all have one zero in our birth dates, and does this mean relieving of ourselves of karmic debt in future lives become exponentially harder?"
"Thats a good theory. There are many studies relating to this, while relieving ourselves of karmic debts may become harder in some respects, as time goes on and birthdate numbers increase, many of the strengths revealed in our numbers increase also, thereby giving an individual better 'tools' so to speak, when it comes to repaying and learning from those debts." Crispy intoned, complete with sweeping gestures.

Hehe. "Which means he is a smart, sensitive, perceptive and intuitive individual. He can get to know what the motivations of someone else are, and knows tact and diplomacy."
She nearly lowered her hand, frowned, and then raised it fully once more. "Sir?" Her tones were thoughtful. "This means he doesn't really get what others are feeling and - or - need, but it also says that he is perceptive and sensitive. Don't those two statements... sort of contradict each other? Could it be that sometimes, opposite meanings can cancel out, or maybe neutralize, each other? Or bring a balance, some sort of intermediate between the qualities or drawbacks they speak of?"
She shrugged, lowered her hand.
"Not at all, they do not cancel one another out simply because they indicate an entire lifetime of repayment or of developing strengths. Some may be the case now and some may not truly be the case until some other point of an individual's lifetime. Recall also that the other numbers and vibrations, such as those existing in your name, give us even further insight into an individual, their strengths, weaknesses, and where their life is taking them."

I assume because of this loss she will become involved with a psychic or become interested in the occult. Gold also has an analytical mind. That doesn't seem to go together- interest in the occult and an analytical mind."
"Her grid is missing the number nine. According to this, Gold tends to overlook the feelings and needs of others. She is aloof and detached. That probably explains why she overlooks the feelings and needs of others. Gold also doesn't finish what she starts. She can resolve this problem by learning to give more of herself and become a true humanitarian."
"Be careful how you phrase such things little Hufflepuff, a body could take offense." Crispy bristled a little on Gold's behalf. To talk of a Gryffindor in such a way! Even if it was in her chart, it was in her chart and not necessarily all in herself all at one time.
"Alright I suppose you've got the hang of referring to the meanings and the charts now, so for homework I would like each of you to find the present and missing numbers in your chart, what they mean and what you think of them. In addition you are to do the same for a friend's chart. That is all. Dismissed."[/B]
ooc: so many lessons and all the dram going on I figure arithmancy class is the last thing on anyone's mind. So there we go.
