“INSTANT ANALYSIS” OF CURVED AND ANGLED WRITERS
Using well-known public figures’ signatures as examples
by Professor Emeritus Wayne H. Freeman,
certified handwriting analyst, author, lecturer and instructor
Have you ever saw a handwriting sample and wondered to yourself
“Now what the @&%A$#! does that stroke mean?”
I am going to tell to you about a rediscovered method of “accurately” and “instantly” identifying personality traits that I have spent the past year learning. I also include in this article, internalized insight into curves, loops and angles as taught by numerous other authors.
I must warn you that memorizing any additional technique will take you considerable insight and time. On first glance you may say, “This looks like Egyptian to me, I quit!” Remember that all the great gurus teach us that perseverance is more important than IQ and that you always have time for the things you enjoy.
I have decided to use a few of our former president’s signatures (and handwriting where available) to show you how I use this new system and blend it in with other sources for an “Instant” mini-analysis.
INSTANT ANGLE TRAITS
“A” ACUTE ANGLES <> are made of a straight line and a diagonal line less than 90 degrees.
Traits: (Evil, Tormenting Towards Others…The Writer
gets gratification and pleasure from his/her meanness.)
“O” OBTUSE ANGLES_/ are made of a straight line and a diagonal line that is more than 90 degrees.
Traits: ( Cool, Severe, Ambitious, Critical and Fault Finding,
Makes Unfavorable Comparisons and Hard to Please.)
“R” RIGHT ANGLES “L” are made of two straight lines that meet at exactly 90 degrees.
Traits: (Defiantly Argumentative; Makes Unjustified Accusations; Cold Hearted; Lacks Sympathy, Compassion and Warm Feelings for Others, Intolerant, Unbending, Adamant.)
“D” DIAGONAL STROKES” / are made by one straight line, either descending or ascending.
Traits: (Defiant, Condescending, Skeptical, Unbelieving, Fear of Being Personally Attacked.)
“I” STRAIGHT STROKES made of one straight line horizontal or vertical.
Traits: ( Intolerance, Inaccessible, Selfish, Serious, Solemn, Callous and Indifferent.)
CURVES AND OVALS
“C” SINGLE CURVES “C”
Traits: (Ability to be Affectionate, Caring, Emotionally Responsive, Sympathetic and Obliging. Can give praise to others.)
EXPANDED CURVES are at least double the length of the single curve.
Traits: (Peaceful, Cooperative, Modest, Patient, Affectionate, Cheerful, Sympathetic, Cordial)
This INSTANT ANALYSIS system works to your advantage every time.
Pretend that after speaking before a group of strangers about handwriting analysis, a man hands you a piece of paper containing only his signature. He is insistent to see what you think it means.
You observe on first glance that the writer wrote many large curves in the capital letters of the zone-balanced signature.
“Bingo!” you say to yourself.
For from this day forward you can tell “instantly” that a curving writing style is the indication of an agreeable, pleasant, feeling, compassionate and sensitive person. These personalities will work toward the greater good of others even at the expense of what others may think of them.
Curved oval writers are warm, compassionate and available people. We all love to be around this kind of individual if only for a moment. They brighten our day and do our bidding for us. They are our arch protectors and the male of the yin-yang principle. Ovals have to do with expression of emotion on a verbal and social level. These gentle curved writers are not pushed around, however, for they will stand fast against all odds in their role as caregiver and guardian of others.
The signature was the same size as his writing. This means the individual lives in the real and present world.
Impressed, a bystander asks for an “instant” analysis of his writing and signature.
This time you go…WOOPS!
For this writing sample is a very enormous and proud signature. It is pressured and full of angles in the very exaggerated, occasionally retraced upper zone. (Where we keep our imagination, our rationale for the spirit world, our capacity to think, our daydreams and where we solve problems.)
This signature has a very insignificant middle zone. (Representing the writer’s capacity to live “in the moment.”)
The angles continue into an out-of-proportion lower zone. (Our material world, our sexual world and our measurement of our internal strength “to get the job done,” and also our need for physical activity.)
Extremes in graphology always mean a compensation, denial or lack of something in another area of the writer’s life.
This exaggeration in the writing tells us that the writer is covering up something held inside the writer’s mind. In this case the writer’s domination by his personal fantasy world may be a protection against being overwhelmed by the realities of facing the stress of his day to day life.
There are right angles, obtuse angles, straight strokes, and diagonal strokes with ovals found only in his highly de-emphasized middle zone.
From this day forward you will tell the angular writer that they are probably quite “brilliant” and that they have a sharp and penetrating mind. However, the preponderance of meaning that we glean from this large and poorly zonal balanced angular signature, are the following negative traits: Condescension, defiance, antagonism, fear of criticism, fear of inadequacy, stubborn opposition of others and an irrational and grandiose defense of his viewpoint.
The type of individual who writes his name extra-large is a power seeker, and will crush people who stand in their way. All thoughts are internally self-directed from childhood. (These individuals actually believe “they are special and entitled,” and never hesitate to demean associates behind their back or in public.)
This mostly angular and way out-of-proportion signature, compared to the writing, tells us that the writer “cares little for others” and has very few, if any, close friends.
Senator John Kerry’s current signature matches all the criteria listed above.

SOME OTHER INSTANT ANALYSIS OF
FORMER PRESIDENTS
(1801-9) Thomas Jefferson
Signature is flamboyant and projects the image of a leader. He uses a combination of loops and angles. His ending stroke indicates a passivity and weakness to his personality. Hmmm.
(March- April 1841) William Henry Harrison
This signature is of a man who seems to be depressed and suffering from health problems. He, too, was a sympathetic, compassionate and acquisitive man. He died after only a month in office.
(1841-45) John Tyler
“Look at me, I am the man!” Signature is large and healthy. His mixture of curves and angles indicate he may have been a strong president. He was a warm and sympathetic gentleman.
(1853-7) Franklin Pierce
Large flamboyant signature with many loops and curves. This dynamic individual had the capacity to heap praise on the good works of others. His is a healthy and brilliant signature.
(1661-65) Abraham Lincoln
A humble and smallish signature that matches up with his equally tiny script. This means he was a man living “in the awful” moments of his life and the civil war. He was a connected leader. A brilliant poetic leader who lead via the substance of his intellect. A warm and compassionate writer and therefore a warm and compassionate man.
(1869-77) Ulysses S Grant
U. S. Grant writes my favorite presidential signature. This man must have been brilliant by any measure. He was capable and magnanimous and maybe a genius. Based solely on his signature.
(1909-13) William Howard Taft
An angle writer, so Taft was probably very bright. But angular writers often find it easy to reject others. You can see by the slope of the script that Taft was depressed, a vulgar thinker, clannish (y and g loops) and skeptical of others. Taft was also a domineering mountain of a man who, with his angular writing, was probably capable of anything – good or evil.
(1963-69) Lyndon B. Johnson
Lyndon B. Johnson, one of the two (Taft was the other) really frightening men who have found their way to the presidency. Dark heavy writing was his trademark. This writing has heavy down strokes far into the lower zone and retraced. His writing is reflective of many German leaders Of WWII. This leader was capable of great deeds for good and for evil. See Taft’s comments, as many apply here as well.

I like Grant’s signature the best aslo…there is something very, artistic about, yet very male too.
The Johnson signature is just plain creepy, it reminds me of gothic script or something.
This is soooo interesting!
