Arithmancy Lesson Two

[isabellapeters]

Bella raised her hand, "To find your Soul Urge Number, you have to use the full name on your birth certificate. No matter how long it is. By using the chart that's in our books you then have to put the correct number under every letter. First you figure out the sum of each name sperately and then reduce it to only one digit. Then you have to add the reduced numbers of all the names and then you may possibly have to reduce the number again to get a single digit."

When she had finished she nodded at Mel, "it sounds fun," she said sarcastically. "And the North has the occasional good looking one, okay so ever one in a million, but we do have the fashion in Milan."

Kelly silenty raised her hand "You can find out your Soul's Urge Number by using the full name noted on your birth certificate, lay out your name and assign the appropriate number to each vowel using the chart given in Chapter Two of this text. Figure out each name separately, then add the reduced total of each name - first, middle(s), and last, then reduce that number to its single digit root number." she answered amlost completely from the textbook.

Kildara smiled happily. "2 points to Gryffindor for Miss Black's textbook answer, and 1 point to Ravenclaw, for Miss Peter's attempt. You need at only assign numbers to the vowels of the name. Not every letter. We dd that for the Destiny Number last lesson. An example," she said and the following appeared on the newly cleared board.

KILDARA MEROPE SNAPE
(9+1+1)+(5+6+5)+(1+5)
= (1+1)+(1+6)+6 = 1+5
= 6

"Therefore my Soul's Urge, or Heart's Desire, Number is 6. Have a go with your own names," she said happily.

[isabellapeters]

"Oh yeah," Bella said remembering her homework that she had done. She quickly grabbed her quill and wrote her name out on the parchment

Isabella Serenity Andrea Peters
(9+1+5+1) + (5+5+9) + (1+5+1) + (5+5)
(16) + (19) + (7) + (10)
(1+6) + (1+9) + (7)+ (1+0)
7+ (1+0) + 7 + 1
7 + 1 + 7 + 1 = 16 = (1+6) = 7

"My soul urge number is 7 professor," Bella said. "Should I see what it means?"

[JadieLou]

Kildara looked up. "Yes please Miss Peters. Can you all look up your number once you are done and try to interpret it." she said to the class.

Danika got out her parchment and her quill and started to work out her number.

DANIKA JEZABEL PEVERELL
(1+9+1)+(5+1+5)+(5+5+5)
= (1+1)+(1+1)+(1+5) = 10
= 1+0 = 1

Danika opened her textbook and looked up her number.

ONE (1): You want to lead more than anything and may want to control others too. You do not like being subordinate or taking orders. 1 Soul Numbers are often ambitious, independent, headstrong, and willful. You stay away fom teams, committees - and mediocrity. In matters of the heart and friendship, everything is great when the object of your affection/friendship lives up to your expectations. You expect that person to be as charming, clever, and independent as you are. You may seem cold or distant but it is only because you are protecting yourself.

Danika's eyes widened as she read it. Wow, this book is telling the truth. Pretty scary actually.

Sam got out his quill and a clean piece of parchment and worked out his number.

SAM MATTHEW HEARN
1+(1+5)+(5+1) = 13
= 1+3 = 4

He opened his book and read the definition.

FOUR (4): Your desire is to have a plan and meet life in an organized manner. You wish to be practical about everything you do, loving your appointment book, agendas, setting clear boundaries, and knowing the expectations of all concerned. You like to know the plan and be in control - you don't want surprises along the way! You can be a great facilitator, bringing out the best in each individual by building a synergy between people. In matters of the heart and friendship, you are practical in emotional attachments and like to keep things under control. You may not seem romantic or spontaneous, but your planning is designed to thrill and delight others!

He laughed out loud when he read it. Okay, maybe a little bit true.

[isabellapeters]

Bella nodded and took out her book to see what her soul number meant.

SEVEN (7): You are an emotional hermit and rarely show your feelings. You may even prefer your own thoughts to the company of another. You prefer solitude, the lure of silence, and peace. In matters of the heart and friendship, your thoughts will probably be kept secret, as will your beliefs and eccentric lifestyle. You pair best with another 7 soul - another sensitive person, often in possession of highly developed skills of perception.

She stared at the text for a moment in disbelief. "This isn't me," she whispered. Well okay she rarely showed her anger and she hated being alone but she showed most of her other feelings to everyone. Most of it isn't true anyways she told herself stubbornly.

[Kelly Black]

"let's give it a try" Kelly thought to herself.

KELLY BLACK
5+1
=6

SIX (6): Three things most important to you are beauty, harmony, and home. Understanding, loyalty, devotion, affection and commitment are top priorities. You want to protect, nurture, and love your family and home. In matters of the heart and friendship, you are the idealistic romantic and friend. In love, you want to be committed and love deeply. In friendship, you want lifelong companionship and confidences.

"Yeap, that's me alright" she giggled, showing her result to Danika.

[JadieLou]

Danika looked over when she heard Kelly giggle. She loved that sound. She looked over her shoulder and read her number.
"Wow babe. Yours suits you," she laughed. She smiled happily, at least they weren't fighting anymore.

Amelina pulled her parchment out from under the book and began to write.

AMELINA LIZIA ALIBRANDI
(1+5+9+1)+(9+9+1) + (1+9+1+9+)
(16)+(11)+(20)=47 (4+7=11.)
Number=11
You are extremely sensitive, with more emotional ups and downs than other numbers. You're wiser than your age would suggest, understanding and perceiving more than most. Above all else, you want to bring peace to all relations - whether its partnerships, loved ones, families, neighboring countries, or magically diverse groups. You have strong hunches, which most often prove to be correct. You are an old soul who brings ancient knowledge and spiritual wisdom to all of your undertakings. In matters of the heart and friendship, you can be like the 2, sweet and gentle and wanting to please. But your double 1s can also cause you to desire leadership and detest playing second, even if your greatest desire is for harmony

Amelina frowned, that sounded too much like her for liking. She put down her pen, and read over the paragraph, thinking.

[JadieLou]

Kildara smiled, looking around as the class as they worked out their numbers.
"Okay, so I hope you find that all right and that they all suit you. Does any one have any questions?" she asked, fixing them all individually with their own looks.

[JadieLou]

Kildara looked around and smiled. "No one has any questions? No? Okay then, moving on. Personality Numbers. The Personality Number is an element of the Core that describes what others remember about you after a first encounter - the "outer you" or "external image." This number describes how others view you and invites you to see yourself as others see you." she said, reciting from the textbook she knew by heart. "Okay, so who can tell me how to find your Personality Number?" She looked around at her class with a hopeful look on her face.

[isabellapeters]

"To find your personality number you have to once again use your full name on your birth certificate," Bella said raising her hand. "Instead of using the vowels like you do for your soul urge number, you use the consonants and match them to the appropriate numbers between 1 and 9. Then you figure out each name seperately before adding the reduced toal of each name together and then reduce that number to a single digit number."

[JadieLou]

Kildara smiled. "Thank you Miss Peters. Very well recited," she laughed. "2 points to Ravenclaw." She turned to the rest of the class. "As Miss Peters so nicely put it, you find your Personality Number by assigning a number to each of the consonants of your name. For example."
She flicked her hand behind her and the following appeared on the board.

KILDARA MEROPE SNAPE
(2+3+4)+(4+9+6+7)+(1+5+7)
= 9+(2+6)+(1+3)
= 9+8+4
= 2+1
= 3

"So, therefore my Personality Number is 3. Before I get you to work out your own, can someone find and read out what a number 3 Personality Number means, then interpret it, in relation to me?" she said, curious as to how they would interpret it.

[isabellapeters]

Bella had to blush, sometimes it was easier memorises definitions instead of trying to remember different things about them. Then again if it earns Ravenclaw points She looked in her Arithmancy book and raised her hand before reading out the definition.

THREE (3): Looks like fun; magnetic personality; life of the party; animated and friendly; great speaker; charming and entertaining; sometimes hogs the spotlight; extroverted and social; attractive physical appearance; optimistic; contagiously enthusiastic; witty; clever with words; great sense of humor; looks great in most colors and styles. You tend toward exaggeration so others may not take you as seriously as you'd like. In fact, they may even distrust your judgment at times. It is also possible that your jealousy will get you into a lot of trouble.

"Well Professor, we can always come and talk to you if something's wrong which would explain you being friendly and being very social. You are quite pretty," Bella said. Pretty enough for my boyfriend to have sex with you she added silently making sure her mind blocks were up. "Being a teacher means that you are clever with words, although it should probably be clever with numbers as you're an arithmancy teacher. And you do like wearing a lot of different fashions." Bella sometimes admired what Kildara was wearing, but she'd never give her her own clothes. That was all she had, although she knew Professor Black distrusted the Professor's judgement because she was the leader of the deatheaters.

Nathan nodded, listening to what Isabella was saying, and decided to add a little something, emphasis on 'little', "So, basically, you fight for what you want, and get it very often" much more than often, honestly.

[JadieLou]

Kildara raised an eyebrow at Isabella, hearing a whipser of the girl's thoughts. So Sam couldn't keep his mouth shut. And, to his girlfriend no less. She would have to have a talk with that boy. She glanced in his direction, then smiled at Isabella.
"Thank you Miss Peters for you interpretation. 2 points to Ravenclaw," she said, her smile turning sort of awkward. She never thought a small interpretation could be so awkward.
She turned to Nathan, again awkwardly. "Thank you Mr Asthore. Another 2 points for Ravenclaw."
She cleared her throat then sat on her desk. "Okay, now I would like you to work out your own Personality Numbers. Quick, before class ends."
