How a name reaches 46
In the Chaldean system every letter of the name is added into one total. When that total is 46, Cheiro reads 46 first and then the single digit it reduces to: 4+6 = 10, then 1. Read number 1 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.

What the single digit 1 adds
Traditionally the number of beginnings. One is linked with drive and the wish to act on your own terms; the shadow side is impatience or going it alone when help is on offer. In Cheiro's method the compound gives the colour and the single digit gives the underlying nature; both are read together.
