What is the Cheiro Numerology Chart?

How to Use Cheiro Numerology Chart to Make Predictions? 

Every number in cheiro numerology indicates certain spheres of human life. The spheres could be career, death, luck, wealth, health, marriage, and so on. In order to make accurate predictions, the birth number and the name number of a person are calculated using the Cheiro numerology chart. 

Let’s give you an example: Take a random name, say, David Lee, and find out about what the destiny of this person would look like. 

D in cheiro numerology is 3.

A in cheiro numerology is 5.

V in cheiro numerology is 5.

I in cheiro numerology is 1.

D in cheiro numerology is 2.

So, David sums to, 3+5+5+1+2 = 16 = 1+6 = 7.

L in cheiro numerology is 3.

E in cheiro numerology is 5.

E in cheiro numerology is 5.

So, Lee sums to, 3+5+5 = 13 = 1+3= 4.

So, David Lee would sum to, 7+4 = 11 = 1+1 = 2.

So, the Name Number for David Lee is 2. 

Now, let’s say, this person, David Lee was born on the 13th. The month and year don’t matter much. The date matters the most in cheiro numerology. 

So, 13 = 1+3 = 4.

So, the birth number for David Lee is 4.

Hence, the personality, future, and career of David Lee would correspond to what the numbers 4 and 2 mean in numerology.
