Graphology: Letter D

Graphology: Letter “d”. Graphology is the art that intends to find, through the characteristics of
letters, psychological qualities of the writer. We know the importance of confirming the findings
achieved by other techniques.

Graphology Letter D

Inductive graphology studies the so called reflective letters. Reflective letters are the most

representative due to their location in the graphical space or due to their structure. They refer to
certain symbols or indicators of psychological and physical states, tendencies or behaviors of human
beings. They are useful to complement the graphological analysis.
Let us recall that personality is not exclusively determined through reflexive letters or a particular
trait, but that we must integrate the information they provide with the rest of the study.

Graphology Letter D lowercase

Graphology letter d

We dedicate this article to letter “d” lowercase, which is composed by two parts: An oval and an
upper extension. It provides information about the way the person integrates what he “feels” with
what he “thinks”, the way in which his feminine and masculine aspects coexist. It informs us the
way the individual has for relating to others, allowing us to infer the position he acquires in a
sentimental relationship and its needs. It allows determining the predominance of the rational
aspects or the emotional aspects of the individual.
The oval in letter “d” represents what the individual “feels”. It symbolizes the feminine sphere of
the person, the mother image, the “anima” sic of Jung. It provides information about his degree of
openness, of his affective life, his degree of emotional maturity of the individual towards others.
 The upper extension or extension upwards of letter “d“ represents what the individual “thinks”, the
father image and the masculine side or “animus” sic of Jung. It informs us about the aspirations, the
intensity of the mental life, the ideals the way of thinking, the level of fantasy and imagination. The
way in which we project in the intellectual sphere, the existence of tendencies towards a superior
ideal, the degree of firmness in principles and convictions, presence of ties to the past , the degree
of realism of existence of the being, inclinations towards fantasy or mysticism.
