What does 46 & 2 mean?


From wikipedia:


"Forty-Six & 2" is a song by American (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) rock (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_music) band (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band_%28music%29) Tool (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_%28band%29) from their 1996 album Ænima (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%86nima). It saw release only in the form of a promo single,<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference">[1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forty-Six_&_2#cite_note-0)</sup> and received radio airplay.


The title references an idea first conceived by Drunvalo Melchizedek (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Drunvalo_Melchizedek&action=edit&redlink=1) concerning the possibility of reaching a state of evolution at which the body would have two more than the normal 46 total chromosomes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome) and leave a currently disharmonious state.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference">[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forty-Six_&_2#cite_note-2)</sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference">[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forty-Six_&_2#cite_note-3)</sup> The premise is that humans would deviate from the current state of human DNA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA) which contains 44 autosomes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autosome) and 2 sex chromosomes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex-determination_system). The next step of evolution would likely have 46 and 2 chromosomes in their DNA.
Furthermore, the song references a wish to experience change through the "shadow (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_%28psychology%29)"; an idea which represents the parts of one's personality that one hates and fears, which also exists as a recurring theme in the work of Carl Jung (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Jung).<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference">[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forty-Six_&_2#cite_note-4)</sup> Along with this is the idea behind the anima (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anima_%28Jung%29)/animus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anima_%28Jung%29) influences on human behavior.
