Cheiro's reading of 41
Cheiro gives 41 no separate reading: it carries the same meaning as 32. He gives 32 a magical quality like 5, 14 and 23, connected with groups of people or nations. He calls it fortunate when the person trusts their own judgment, otherwise plans may be spoiled by others' obstinacy, and favourable for future events.

How a name reaches 41
In the Chaldean system every letter of the name is added into one total. When that total is 41, Cheiro reads 41 first and then the single digit it reduces to: 4+1 = 5. Read number 5 for the single-digit meaning.
Cheiro used compound numbers mainly to judge names and dates. These readings describe his tradition's view; they are not predictions.

14, 23, 32, 50. Each has its own reading, though they share the single digit 5.
What the single digit 5 adds
Five is linked with movement, variety and the senses. It is read as adaptable and adventurous; the shadow side is restlessness or difficulty committing. In Cheiro's method the compound gives the colour and the single digit gives the underlying nature; both are read together.
How one letter changes 41
Adding a letter raises a Chaldean total by that letter's value, from 1 to 8 (no letter is worth 9). This is why a doubled letter or an extra vowel can move a name to a different compound:
