Slytherin Time: 9:00

Again, we will be memorizing personality traits. You are doing very well! We will be doing this for this class and next, and then you will be done with 1-9. There is, of course, special numbers like eleven, but that is for when you are more advanced. Maybe next year, maybe the year after that. On to seven!

Sevens are hard working and enjoy challenges. Often they are interested in things that are mysterious. They are serious and studious. Material things are too important for them, they prize originality and imagination They can be insecure, pessimistic, and sarcastic.

Eights are the possibility of great success. They have the potential for great results, but the threat of mighty failure is present from the beginning too. They are practical, ambitious, and hard working, though they can be jealous, greedy, and domineering too.

I hope that you got all those down. No homework today, though I would recommend reading through your past notes. Class is dismissed.

Today we will continue to study the personality traits, moving onto 5 and 6.

Five is the number of instability and imbalance. Fives are prone to change and will frequently commit to many projects and do none. They are energetic, adventurous, and very willing to take risks to achieve their goals. They do not remain in one place long, instead preferring a more nomadic life of wandering and travel.
The downside of fives is that they can be conceited, irresponsible, quick-tempered, and flighty.

Sixes are the opposite. They are reliable, loyal, and keep their friends. They are family oriented and do well in the arts, but have a lousy business sense. They can be prone to gossiping and laziness.
Six is considered one of the most auspicious numbers of arthimancy. If you add 1+2+3 you get 6 and if you multiply 1x2x3 you will also get six.

All right. Put your quills away. Your homework is to study the numbers we have learned so far. Class is dismissed.

Hello class, and welcome back. I hope that you had a good winter break and didn't forget everything while you were gone! To help you remember, I would like you to take out your notes about last class and review the traits of ones and twos.

Is that done? Very well then. Now I would like you to copy down the traits of threes and fours.

Three
Keywords: Completeness, wholeness
Threes are likely to be talented, energetic, artistic and to have a good sense of humor
They are often rich and highly successful, but also unfocused, superfial and easily offended.

Four
Keywords: Stability, firmness, hard working, practical
Fours are organizers and predictable, and prefer logic and reason to being spontaneous.
On the flip side, fours can be suspicious and stubborn. All conflicts possible with twos are doubled with fours

Your homework is the same as last class, only this time with a three or a four. Class is dismissed.

Before you head off to vacation, I thought I would give you a bit more to think about. Please take out a quill and parchment to take notes.

Every number has a meaning and a personality that goes with it. By knowing someone's name, you can figure their number and from there, their personality. I will be teaching you the meanings that go with people's numbers

One
Keywords: Leader, Loner, Independent, Focused, and Determined
Ones set goals and stick to them. They are leaders and inventors.
They don't like working with others and often refuse to take orders.
Frequent bad traits of the one are being self-centered, egotistical, and domineering

Two
Keywords: Interaction, Creative, Harmony, Loyal, Fair, and Balanced
Twos represent equality, two way communication, co-operation, and harmony
They also represent conflicts, opposing forces, and contrast: day and night, good and evil
Bad trait of the two include being withdrawn, moody, self-conscious, and indecisive.

Does everyone have that? Good. Please think of someone you know whose name boils down to one or two. Your homework is to write about how this does or doesn't describe them. Class is dismissed and happy holidays!

Today I want you to take out your sheets that have things like animals and their corresponding numbers. Figure out today's number and then write down the corresponding food, animal, etc.

All set? You are now going to go on a treasure hunt. I want you to take your list of correspondances and hunt the castle up and down for them. Take note of things that you find and where you found them. With the food, bring a sample back. You have forty-five minutes. Off you go.

Did everyone find some of their things? Good. Please turn in your lists and your food. No homework. Time for your next class.

Now that you have a good idea of your personal number profile, the next thing you are going to learn is how to choose your future. Notice that I said choose, not predict. What you are about to learn is not telling the future but learning how to tackle choices that may come your way. First, I want you to remember your personal number. Got that? Good. Now the first choice we are going to come up against will be something small and rather insignificant. How about what colour you should wear tomorrow? Nice and minor. Now write out tomorrow's date: 11/5/2008
First, reduce all of the numbers: 1+1/5/2+0+0+8 = 2/5/1
Next, add all of the reduced numbers: 2+5+1= 8
So, tomorrow's personal number is 8. Now, add tomorrow's number with your number. For me, that would be: 8+8=16 1+6=7
So for me, tomorrow is a 7 day.

Now you need a list of colors and their numbers.
Here is one:
1 Pink, Brass, Dark Purple
2 Copper, crimson
3 Orange, Gray
4 Yellow, Black, White, Gold
5 Purple, Magenta
6 Metallic
7 Navy, Tan, Plum
8 Green, Blue, Silver
9 Red, Brown

I must admit that I had some trouble finding colours for some numbers.
Compare numbers between colours and what number tomorrow will be for you. Choose which colour you would want to wear the most out of your options.

Just as an exersise for you brain, figure out today's number and what colour you should be wearing. See if you are wearing that colour.


It is time for you to go. Please pack up. Your homework is to think of a decision that is in your future. Use arithmancy to decide. Class is dimissed

Please take out your homework and a quill. I want you to copy onto your sheet what I have written on the black board.

Arithmancy Black Board
1 Lettuce
2 Apple, Raspberry, Mango, Beans, cocoa, chips

4 Cinnamon, Candy
5 Pasta
6 Bread, Wheat, Toffee, Juice, Yam, Noodles,
7 Tofu, Tortillia, Burger, tea
8 Coffee, Water, Ham

Now, pull out a new sheet. Draw in the middle a circle. In that circle, write your name and your heart, social and character numbers. Draw five lines coming off it. Title one food, one number, one color, one animals, and the last wand. Under food, write the foods that correspond with your number, do the same under numer, writing the one that exactly corresponds with all your numbers added.
Now take out yet another sheet and write down ten animals. Figure their number and write down all that are compatible with your number. If none are, write down ten more and figure. Repeat this until you have one that matches your number.

Quills down please. You do not have any homework. Class is dismissed.

Good Day, everyone. Today you will be finding different things that are compatible with you. For example, my number is eight, thus I should eat coffee, water, and ham.
It will be best if you keep a sheet with things that are compatible. Take out a piece of parchment and number it from 1 to 9. Do the same for two more sheets. You may also want to take out you chart.
I want you to find a food, animal and emotion that is compatible with your number. You may now start calculating.


I know that we only have twenty minutes left, but I will pass out arithmancy calculators. With these, you enter what you are trying to calculate, then add the three numbers together.


Put away your quills and ink now. Your Homework is to find something that is compatible with each number. Class is dimissed

Hello Class and Welcome! Today you will begin to study the ancient art of Arithmancy, which is older than 2,500 years. It is also called numerology and comes from the Greek words arithmo, meaning number and mancy, meaning prophecy. The most widely used method involves a basic chart. Please refer to the Black Board to see this chart. As you can see, there are numbers between 1 and 9 and each one has three or four letters. Please take out a piece of paper and a quill. We will figure out your personal number. First write out your name like so:

Septima Vector

Next put the corresponding numbers below:

Septima Vector
1572941 453269

Next do the same with all the vowels, then all the constanants:

eia eo
59156

sptm vctr
1724 4329

Now add each line:

Septima Vector
1+5+7+2+9+4+1+4+5+3+2+6+9 = 58

eia eo
5+9+1+5+6 = 26

sptm vctr
1+7+2+4+4+3+2+9 = 32

Now we can't have two number on each line so take to sum of the first and we will reduce it. To reduce a number, separate to numbers and add them together (5+8= 13). Reduce until the sum is a single number (1+3 =4) Do that to the other lines.

Septima Vector
1+5+7+2+9+4+1+4+5+3+2+6+9 = 58 = 13 = 4

eia eo
5+9+1+5+6 = 26 = 8

sptm vctr
1+7+2+4+4+3+2+9 = 32 = 5

To get your personal number, add all of the reduced numbers (4,8,5) as if they were a new line (4+8+5= 17). Now reduce (1+7 = 8). Thus eight is my personal number.
Now that is all for now. Please refer to the homework below and copy out the chart. Class dismissed.


Homework
Figure out the number of two pets or friends.
