The information given in this chapter can be used advantageously to adjust the name value in a way to bring it in harmony with the birth date. If the two are already in harmony, so much the better. If they are not, we have no option but to amend or modify the name since we cannot change the birth date. The name must be changed in a way so that the name value of the amended or the modified name is in harmony with the birth date.

Let us take the case of a person named Ved Prakash Verma born on 9 th September, 1949. Being born on the 9th, he is number 9. The numerical value of his name based on alphabet values followed by Cheiro will be as follows:

The name thus yields 15 + 22 + 18 = 55 as the numerical value. The meaning of this number, as given earlier, is a number which denotes 'leadership, great energy and push. Success is achieved due to discriminating intelligence and a pioneering spirit.'

Here the name value of number 55 is good, but this number, when reduced to the basic number, becomes 55 = 5 + 5 = 10 = 1 + 0 = 1, which is not in harmony with his birth date number, 9.

If we try to reduce the name value to 54 (54=5+4=9) to bring it in harmony with the birth date. But the indication of 54, as given earlier, is that the native possesses 'the mercurial powers of eloquence and expression. He will have a long life, good health and a successful career. He should take precaution against injury in the leg.' It is not prudent to have the name vibrate with a number which threatens physical injury.

So we have to try to make the number of the name value vibrate with the destiny or the compound number. The compound number of the native born on 9th September, 1949 (9-9-1949) will be:
9 + 9 + 1 + 9 + 4 + 9 = 41 = 4 + 1 = 5

We find that the name Ved P. Verma has the numerical value of 41.

V E D / P / V E R M A :6+5+4=15 / 8 / 6+5+2+4+1=18 / 15+8+18= 41 = 4+1=5

The indication for the numerical value for 41 as given earlier is' a good number for worldly success, particularly, when working with large groups of people or concerns. Natives have good judgement, and are advised to carry out their own ideas, rather than be guided by others.'

So it would be luckier if the person uses Ved P. Verma as his name. This is a good number and also in harmony with his compound number.
