Unconscious drawings meaning. Random scribbles and secret desires. My distant star

Nothing in life happens for nothing. Everything we do or don’t do speaks about our character, secret desires, hidden complexes... For example, drawing, as it seems to us, out of nothing to do, figures, spirals, diamonds, faces or lines, we don’t even suspect that These seemingly meaningless scribbles can tell a lot about us, our character, our hidden desires, secrets, complexes, and childhood grievances. Our portal will tell you how scientists “read” a person’s character from a drawing.

The scientific basis for how you can determine character from a drawing

Doodles are the most natural way for children to express their emotions and feelings. And since there is a child hidden in every adult, then we are not alien to the thoughtless, as we believe, desire to move a pencil on paper. British psychologist Jack Goodman claims that 65% of people, when talking on the phone, draw various designs with a pen on a piece of paper - flowers, figures, spirals, circles...

British psychologist Jack Goodman claims that 65% of people scribble on paper when talking on the phone. These drawings come from the subconscious and have the same basis as dreams.

Psychologists sometimes call these drawings, which are born subconsciously when a person is doing something else, waking dreams. These creations come from the subconscious and have the same basis as dreams. These “oil paintings” are a reflection of the artist’s momentary feelings: joy, fear, mistrust... And although the drawing must be interpreted only in unity with the personality of the “artist,” there are some common nuances that concern each person. Our portal will tell you about them now.

Butterflies and birds are painted by those who do not feel solid ground under their feet, who lack stability. In addition, butterflies symbolize an attempt to escape from problems.

Geometric figures are drawn by people of science. Prudent, reasonable, they say about such people: they know what they want. Fans of geometric shapes will measure seven times before taking scissors, sometimes thereby putting a spoke in their own wheels. Persistent, taciturn, have everything in mind own opinion, always formulate it clearly. Circles and spirals reveal hidden passion and secret plans.

At home they paint personalities who combine creativity and rationalism. They are very inventive, sensible, live in harmony with themselves, which is probably why they have no problems with feeling their own safety. A symmetrical house speaks of a love of order and planning. The “artist” knows what he wants, persistently striding towards the goal.

The eyes in this case are literally the mirror of the soul. Large, expressive eyes depict sociable people. Staring - people who are not particularly polite, as well as those who feel like they are being watched too closely. The authors of little eyes are, as a rule, reserved individuals who prefer action to ranting. Incredibly long eyelashes are painted by ladies' men.

Animals are preferred to be portrayed by people who give the impression of being reserved. But with those they trust, they are open, friendly, reliable; justice and honor are not an empty phrase for them. They love children, animals, nature. Caring for others comes naturally to them, like breathing. They can boast of strong family ties, but sometimes they want to be alone with themselves. A mouse drawn by a woman is evidence of a lack of intimacy. Tiger, wolf symbolizes internal anger, irritation, conflict character. The pluses are bursting energy, the ability to think and analyze. Fox - plans for something not entirely legal; squirrel - the need for support, care; the bear is an exemplary family man, a conscientious employee. Cats are drawn by people with good taste, but conservative, prone to melancholy. Loyal, fair, sociable, honest, surrounded by friends, they prefer to portray dogs. The snake is a symbol of wisdom, so crawling creatures are depicted by people who are reasonable, taciturn, and accustomed to relying on themselves. It also happens that by constantly drawing the same animal, a person demonstrates a desire to follow its habits.

As a rule, squiggles are drawn by very impressionable people who are sensitive to changes in mood in others.

The stars are preferred by those who want to be the center of the universe. However, if the stars have many rays or they are drawn not in the middle of the sheet, but in the corner, from the edges, this may indicate depression.

Saw teeth, symbolizing aggression, a hidden inferiority complex, betray an egoist.

Initials, first name, last name are the favorite motifs of daring individuals, focused solely on themselves. If this is someone else’s name, it means that the “artist” thinks about this person more often, more than about others, giving him either love or... hatred, not knowing how to deal with it.

Caricatures: the biological age of the “artist” does not coincide with the internal one. Thinks too much about the future and plans “for growth.” Possesses with a critical eye on things, sometimes he can be angry.

Crosses symbolize feelings of guilt—either your own or those of friends/colleagues.

Circles, no matter what - located nearby, creeping on top of each other - always speak about one thing: a person is in search of his “I”. Needs support, not only from friends, but even from strangers. Also, circles are evidence of nobility.

The leaves, especially those clearly drawn, simply scream: the female author wants a child. The thick stem reveals the “artist’s” desire to become a wonderful housewife.

Smiling faces come from the pens of people who are cheerful, energetic, with a good sense of humor, but not too picky about their means when it comes to their goals. They seem to be ready to do anything for their loved ones, but it is difficult to rely on them. Unsmiling faces depict secretive melancholic people who keep their distance, have high self-esteem, and are ambitious.

Weapons speak of passion. Love for such a person is struggle and decisive action. In friendship he is cordial and devoted.

The web is a trap. The man found himself in difficult situation, perhaps even hopeless. The web is also drawn by those who want to end the relationship, but do not know how to do it.

Hairstyles are painted by reflective individuals who love to philosophize. Their feelings are noble, they notice beauty in everything, because they are gifted with artistic abilities.

Profiles (faces in profile) display on paper individuals who are overly cautious, reserved, and who like to give evasive answers.

Honeycombs are painted by calm, non-conflict people who dream of a quiet family life.

Stains and blots testify, no matter how paradoxical it may be, to the intelligence, prudence, and goodwill of a person who is always ready to help, who is not afraid of risk and struggle - but only an honest one.

Plant motifs are chosen by moderate natures, who tend to stick to the golden mean in everything.

Faces reveal a humorous, positive individual who knows how to laugh at himself.

Hearts. On the one hand, this may be evidence good mood, complacency; on the other hand, naivety. And, of course, hearts are drawn by those in a romantic state.

Spirals speak of suppressed emotions, secret plans that the artist does not want to put on public display. Fans of “twisted plots” are often very sensitive.

The arrows symbolize the goal that the artist wants to achieve. Arrows pointing upward are evidence of sociability and team spirit; an arrow pointing down indicates a single person. An arrow pointing to the left hints: its creator is stuck in the past; the one whose arrow went to the right looks confidently into the future.

Flowers, clouds, sun - idyll. This means that the “artist” has peace in his soul, he is positive, lives in harmony with himself, everything is fine with him and he only expects from the future pleasant surprises. The sun with long rays is depicted by dreamers, with short or no rays - stubborn people who are often withdrawn.

Fantastic creatures are a sign of distrust. A person hesitates, feeling a lack of determination, which affects both in work, where he is often bypassed by more skillful employees, and in life, which does not shine with success. Choosing friendly but decisive people as friends, he often depends too much on their opinions.

People, oddly enough, are portrayed as feeling lost, helpless, or trying to evade responsibilities. Figures from the “stick, stick, cucumber” series reveal an emotionally unstable personality who seeks to isolate himself from society.

Chessboard, tic-tac-toe: a man found himself in a very unpleasant situation. An often repeated motif is an unfinished job, the “artist” person does not have a very good idea of ​​how to finish it, fearing that it will turn out badly in any case.

Pundits say that “involuntary” drawing, out of nothing to do, is a very useful thing. Improves concentration, stimulates creative thinking. It is no coincidence that the margins of the manuscripts of many great writers are full of scribbles.

Scientists say that “involuntary” drawing, out of nothing to do, is a very useful thing. Improves concentration, stimulates creative thinking. It is no coincidence that there seem to be many such drawings in the margins of the manuscripts of great writers. Pushkin, for example, depicted self-portraits and human figures on manuscripts, thereby revealing to his descendants the secret of his character. And if the character of the great poet may not interest you very much, then it’s worth taking a closer look at your close people and employees. What do your friends draw there?

It is a fact that from drawings you can learn a lot about a person’s personality, character, and mood. Psychologists have been using various drawing tests in their diagnostics for a long time.

Most people have this habit. There is nothing scary or surprising about it.
There are several reasons for drawing while talking. This is the organization of the psyche and the release of tension, and an unconscious attempt to hide one’s feelings, and the structuring of information, and compensation for the impossibility or unwillingness of gestures in a conversation with an invisible or visible interlocutor, and a lot more.

You need to pay attention not only to your spontaneous “creativity”. If one day you notice that your boss, colleague or loved one has drawn something similar, take a closer look at it all. Perhaps this simple approach will help you get to know a person more deeply, see his motives and emotions, get to know inner world. As a result, it will be easier for you to establish relationships with him, understand his actions and reactions, and find an approach to communication.

About nine out of ten people between the ages of 18 and 34 draw regularly, while among those over 65 the figure is six out of ten. It is known that John Kennedy loved to depict sailing boats. According to a reputable graphologist, this was a sign of great persistence and vital energy.

Psychologists believe that such a simple activity as drawing helps overcome absent-mindedness without harming the performance of the main task. By drawing, we concentrate better on boring tasks. This was proven by such a simple test. The subjects were given the opportunity to listen to the desired speech, which mentioned different surnames. Half of the volunteers drew while listening. Another suffered without a pencil and paper. The result: those who drew remembered much more surnames - by 29 percent. So, when going to a meeting, feel free to take a pen, pencil, paper with you and get creative!

For example, Pushkin loved to draw faces and figures of people in the margins. And this is a clear sign of sociability and ease of life, increased sociability and dynamism. Remember the famous sketches of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin in the margins of drafts? They are now published in separate volumes.

Boris Yeltsin, they say, when talking with his subordinates, drew straight intersecting lines, which characterizes him as a straightforward and stubborn person, irritating those around him and conflicting not only with others, but also with himself.

The pattern depends on the following components :

the momentary mood of the painter;





human character and temperament;




human orientation (artistic or technical, etc.)

When we draw, and how circumstances influence us.

Meeting

When we listen to what others say without being able (or willing) to respond, we receive information and react to it against our will, expressing our agreement or disagreement through scribbles. If we sit far enough away from our neighbors, then we feel freer to express ourselves: we draw caricatures, caricatures, where the characters are quite recognizable. And if we sit next to each other, we draw more often geometric shapes, landscapes, shading something - by the saturation of the drawing you can understand how strong emotions we experience in at the moment.

Talk

(mostly telephone). When we have the opportunity to see the interlocutor (his facial expressions, gestures), we are unlikely to pick up a pencil or pen. A telephone conversation is another matter: we figure out a lot of things, focusing only on the intonation of the voice at the other end of the line. Doodles (meaningless drawings) help us sort out our thoughts, confirm our intentions, and make a decision.

Their scribbles reflect everything that we don’t dare say to our interlocutor’s face.

Loneliness

In a situation of forced loneliness, boring pastime (in the office, waiting room), doodles become for us a form of internal dialogue with ourselves.

Star

It speaks of a desire to be the center of attention, to “shine,” but may indicate a depressive experience (if there are too many rays or they are depicted separately from the star itself).

Human figures

If these are little people, then most likely you feel helpless or want to avoid any responsibilities. When you depict a person schematically (“stick, stick, cucumber - here comes the little man”) - your emotional state unstable, you want to close yourself and not let anyone near you.

A clown or caricature expresses the desire to hide behind a non-existent image. A robot has appeared on your sheet - you suffer from the control of external forces, you worry that much in life does not depend on you.

However, when the faces are ugly or scary, it means that the author of the drawings is dissatisfied with something or is upset about something.

Eyes

If a person involuntarily draws eyes, this suggests suspicion, as well as a manifestation of concern for public opinion. This person will definitely consult with authoritative people before making a decision.
Small eyes speak of a person’s self-absorption, of his isolation. This person, as a rule, strives to prove his point of view not with words, but with deeds.
If unnaturally long eyelashes are depicted, this indicates a person’s desire to seduce and demonstrate himself.

Personal signatures

Such mechanical drawings are characteristic of a vain and self-centered nature. The abundance of your own signatures, mechanically written on a sheet of paper during a conversation or thinking about some problem, signals an excessive fixation on himself.

Words.

A word circled in a frame is a sign of self-affirmation and conviction that one is right, which can also mean a desire to convince everyone else of this.
A word underlined by a straight and even line speaks of a strong intention to do something.
A word underlined with a wavy line indicates sentimentality and some indecisiveness.
Words written in a “web”, barely noticeable, indicate doubts or that a person has some assumptions or guesses.

Numbers- at the moment you are interested in material things. You are either thinking about how you can make money, or your thoughts are spinning around options on how to pay off your debts.

The sun, light bulbs, garlands and other sources of light and heat. Such drawings indicate a bad mood and a desire for care and attention. You lack warmth and tenderness.

Geometric shapes

You have clear goals and beliefs, you almost never hide your opinions, and you are always persistent and persistent. You are usually overly vigilant and cautious, so try to keep things simple.

The depiction of such strict and clear forms indicates that you clearly know the goals you have set for yourself. You are a direct and purposeful person, with a healthy dose of ambition and careerism. But, if the geometric shapes you draw have too many sharp corners, this is the first sign of increased aggression towards the world around you. Be a little gentler towards the people around you...

Circles and rings

A sign of self-isolation. He also talks about the need to feel safe. If the circles intersect, this may mean a desire to join something, to participate in something.

"I'm lonely, I feel like I'm disconnected from outside world“, such drawings signal. When we draw circles on paper, the unconscious hints to us that we lack friendly participation and attention.

Spirals, circles, wavy lines they say that you do not care too much or are not at all interested in other people's problems. If you are forced to deal with them, then you try to end them as soon as possible. All your attention is currently focused on yourself.

Maybe you are even experiencing a slight emotional crisis: you are walking in a circle of your ambiguous experiences. Now you need to monitor your behavior so as not to lose your temper and lash out at others.

Such drawings mean that your thoughts revolve around the same problem (no matter personal or professional), for which you cannot find a solution. The thicker and larger the spirals and pretzels displayed on paper, the more serious the problem over which you are racking your brain.

Flowers, sun, garlands Cheerful flowers and sunshine - true signs that you are happy with how the telephone conversation is going. Most likely, while listening to your interlocutor, you are already dreaming and fantasizing about something pleasant. Such drawings clearly reveal your optimistic attitude and good disposition.

It's not necessarily all good right now, but you're definitely thinking about it.
Flowers are painted by people with a subtle, vulnerable nature. If you constantly depict flowers, you most likely have a rich imagination, are attentive to detail, and think outside the box.

Trying depict a landscape- you are a sentimental and vulnerable person.

Animals

Your emotions today may directly depend on the animal that has settled on your paper. If it is a tiger or a wolf, aggression is hidden in you; if it’s a fox, they’re planning to cheat somewhere; a bunny or a squirrel - you need care and protection, a lion - you feel superior to everyone. When you constantly depict the same animal, bird or bug, you most likely compare it with yourself, attribute its habits to yourself.

If your pet stands on two legs or is dressed in human clothes (pants, skirts, bows, belts, dresses), then you clearly liken it to a person: yourself or some important person in your life. Take a close look, sometimes in such drawings the muzzles of animals are similar to human faces, the shape of the paws is similar to legs and arms. In this situation, all this indicates infantility and emotional immaturity.

When they appear on your piece of paper chess fields, then, apparently, you find yourself in a very unpleasant or at least difficult situation. If such images appear frequently, then you most likely suffer from hidden complexes associated with the inability to resolve some situation or are in search of yourself, your life path, doubt the correctness of your life.

The alternation of white and black spots (hatched segments) often indicates indecision, self-searching... or a desire to challenge someone seriously (“play a chess game”). It may also mean that you have difficulty making compromises and resolving conflicts.
If you draw crosses, then perhaps you are worried about a feeling of guilt towards a loved one or are burdened by some problem for which you feel responsible.

Labyrinth expresses the search for life harmony, one’s life path.

If you often draw sabers, pistols or other weapons, you have accumulated a lot of aggression, perhaps you are very angry with someone or are generally angry with life.

Endless mazes (or spirals) mean you may not have enough time to think about what you really want.

Houses and boxes. Symmetrical forms demonstrate a love of order, a penchant for planning and calculations. This is what such a drawing says to others: “I am not easily confused, I know exactly what I want, I have clear goals and I am going to resolutely defend my opinion.”

Images house or home furniture they talk about love for a warm homely atmosphere. Such drawings are found among single women or bachelors. However, when they are drawn by married people, this indicates a lack of warmth in the relationship. No matter how houses or household items are depicted, these drawings show the desire to find home comfort and family warmth. But a too clear, repeatedly outlined outline of the house indicates attempts to control one’s actions and emotions.

Trees

It is believed that people who depict trees subconsciously associate themselves with them. That is why it is easier to “read” the author’s character traits from drawings of trees than from any others. So, if you most often depict a tree with a powerful trunk and a large crown (for example, an oak), then with a high degree of probability you can be considered an independent and wise person. You don’t have to be strong all the time; sometimes you can allow yourself little weaknesses.

If the tree depicted has flexible branches with “living” leaves (for example, like a birch tree), then this means that you are very sociable. Loneliness is a real torment for you. If you most often draw a thin tree with bare, leafless branches, know: you need change. Think about your life.

Arrow - this is the vector by which you navigate in life.

Grids appear when you find yourself in a risky or simply awkward situation. Every decisive bold line is an attack that you don't actually dare to make.

The person drawing the lattice either feels driven into a corner, or is trying to hide, to protect himself from this obstacle.

If the strokes are impetuous and fall on the paper with great pressure, then this means: “I feel exhausted, driven into a corner.”

Ornament, a repeating pattern of sharp angles and smooth ovals says that you are bored. Perhaps you are tired of the telephone conversation, maybe the topic of the lecture, or maybe your whole way of life.

Pile of cubes (brickwork)

It means that you are trying to focus on one important thought. If the masonry is drawn carefully, your character is methodical and consistent; you know exactly what you want.

saw teeth

They symbolize aggressiveness, which can be positive and mean a desire to fight or negative (anger, hostility).

Dotted lines

If you draw straight or slightly wavy broken (dashed) lines, then perhaps you are experiencing some self-doubt. Overall, you are a fairly calm and relaxed person. Perhaps, before you commit any action, you just need to relax and get distracted.

Bottles, flasks and other utensils.
It is quite obvious: these symbols have nothing to do with a passion for wine, but speak quite frankly about the feminine sexuality and erotic fantasies of their creator.

Fences, barricades.
A man builds a fence, another fence, then several fences. Most likely, in order to isolate yourself from your surroundings. He wants to run away from everyone, hide from prying eyes. And the reason for this is either excessive demands placed on him, or a strong need for peace.

Pattern position Regarding the free space on paper, it can also tell you something. If it is located closer to the top edge, then you have very high self-esteem, but at the same time you may be dissatisfied with your position in society (at work, parties) and feel a lack of recognition from others. The picture at the bottom means that you are unsure of yourself, indecisive, or uninterested in increasing your own importance. If the pictures are predominantly on the left, you are emphasizing your past experiences, focusing on past experience. The right edge of the sheet is drawn - this indicates a desire to quickly bring the events of the future closer; your life and emotions are always turned to something in the future.

Sweeping drawings speak of freedom of thought, and “modest” sketches speak of determination.

If the lines your drawings are “shaggy”, bold, or a lot of shading in general, then perhaps something is bothering you or some unresolved problem is seriously bothering you.

Your “I” can easily be seen in the size of your creations. A large picture means high self-esteem. Small drawing means anxiety, emotional dependence and stiffness.

Color drawings . A separate topic is the color of the drawing, lines or sketches, if any. As a rule, drawings that “came to light” during telephone conversation or meetings are done in one color, with whatever is at hand. Therefore, the appearance of color is in itself evidence that a person wanted to especially emphasize something.

So, when analyzing spontaneous images, you should pay attention to color scheme, in which the drawing is executed. Let us describe several colors and shades:

Red - a spontaneous drawing in which shades of red predominate, as a rule, testifies to the nature of the winner, the desire to conquer more and more heights.




Blue is the color of fatigue; the psychology of drawing deciphers a spontaneous image in blue tones as the desire of its author for peace and solitude.




Green is a symbol of the need for self-affirmation.




Black - a spontaneous image in black tones indicates fatigue and pessimism.





The gray color indicates the author’s anxious state.

Emotional background of the drawing. Regardless of your own experiences, you should give him objective assessment. For example, a smiling kind animal or a calm sea will indicate a similar state of the artist, and the wind tilting the trees to the ground, the toothy mouth of a shark, the crying sun will in no way be a sign of a peaceful attitude towards the process or event during which the drawing was created.

Drawings that express our emotions are a reflection of our internal state or situational attitude towards the time during which they were created. We can talk about a cheerful little devil as a projection of a good emotional background, a perky mood, a desire to “do something special.” A crying sun will be a sign of internal hidden or obvious frustration or resentment.

How doodles - in the modern form of coloring - can help you

1. While you are busy drawing something of little meaning, your brain is working at full capacity. Sunny Brown wrote the book The Doodle Revolution. In it, she points out that scribbling is a special way of thinking that allows you to solve problems.

In addition, the physical process itself, when you move a rod or stylus across paper, activates thinking. This doesn't happen when you fiddle with your computer's mouse or keyboard.

If your primary channel of perception is visual, you already know that the visual way of thinking should be ideal for you. Sketches or diagrams allow you to both systematize information and present it as concisely as possible for memorization. And your favorite sketch can help you create the most suitable scheme.

Grifonage is perfect for perfectionists. This is precisely the activity in which the process is more important than the result. No one expects your doodles to have artistic value. No one will say that you are doing it wrong. When you learn to “let yourself go” with your doodles, you may become more able to live your life. life to the fullest, without the desire to certainly achieve something in a short time.

4. Or maybe you will create some wonderful pattern that is worthy of being embodied, if not on canvas in oil, then on home textiles? Bring out the designer in you.

Step 1. Doodle. Without lifting the pencil from the paper, draw on the sheet with random scribble lines.
Step 2. Create the basis of our drawing using the griffonage technique. We need to look at our scribbles and look for the outlines of some figures (it’s better to immediately outline them with a thicker pencil). This could be a landscape, or there could be individual figures or silhouettes on a general theme (sea creatures, space).

Step 3. We paint the figures, add details to them and decide their fate: you can cut out the silhouettes and stick them on a blank sheet of paper or make a collage, or you can paint over the rest of the space as a background.

Drawings automatically drawn while talking on the phone. According to an unusual study conducted by German psychologists, two-thirds of callers, while talking on the phone, automatically draw with a pen on paper all kinds of figures that express them in a symbolic form internal state. Once in the hands of an experienced specialist, these random patterns and scribbles, otherwise called psychography, can tell a lot about the “artist”: sometimes even something that a person is not even aware of. However, by glancing at random drawings, not only a specialist can learn a lot about the character of their author.

Spirals, circles, wavy lines.

Other people's problems do not concern the author too much; they seem burdensome to him. His attention is now completely focused on himself. Perhaps he is going through some kind of crisis and must make a serious decision. In such a state, a person can easily lose his temper and offend his interlocutor.

Flowers, suns, garlands.

Grids.

The person feels that he is in a risky or awkward situation. Every decisive bold line is an attack that he does not decide to take. If at the end the drawing is outlined, it means that the problem is over, at least externally. Most likely, the author is inclined to swallow resentment and irritation. This is dangerous: disappointment accumulates in the soul, the further, the more unhappy a person feels.

Patterns like wallpaper.

Sharp corners and smooth ovals are combined into a motif that is repeated ad infinitum. This pattern indicates that you are bored, tired of the conversation, or maybe even your entire lifestyle. You can start with a trifle: say, allow yourself something extravagant, something that you have always wanted, but did not allow yourself to do. This will break the monotony that depresses you.

Crosses.

Crosses express a feeling of guilt that most likely arose during the conversation. Something is weighing you down: either you reproach yourself, or your interlocutor reproached you. You must definitely discuss the reason, otherwise you will suffer for a long time.

Little people.

Don't let their cheerful appearance fool you. This image is a sign of helplessness or a desire to evade some responsibility. People usually draw little people at a moment when they should say a decisive “NO”, but they cannot bring themselves to say this word. So you need to take the little man as a warning and say to yourself: “Don’t give up! Give up, otherwise you will later regret your own weakness!”

Squares, triangles and others geometric shapes.

One thing is clear: you won’t be fooled easily. You have clear goals and beliefs, and you almost never hide your opinions. You rarely experience fear of opponents and competitors. The more angular the geometric shapes, the more aggressive you are, although this is not always noticeable outwardly. This quality fetters your imagination and does not allow you to relax. Try to look at things more simply.

Honeycombs.

They talk about the desire for peace, harmony, and an orderly life. They may also mean a desire to start a family. It is possible that your problem is a reluctance to realize the existence of such a dream.

Chess fields.

Apparently you find yourself in an unpleasant or difficult situation. You dream of a clear and reliable path that will lead you out of it. If such images appear frequently, then you most likely suffer from hidden complexes.

Interweaving circles.

The thought of stable personal connections? Maybe. But more often such a drawing means a desire to participate in something. IN present moment you feel like you are outside of events. Maybe you want to help someone, but don't know how. Try to figure out why you are offside and correct the situation.

Flex

Complex drawings that cannot be deciphered due to the large number of completely unrelated symbols that “coexist” on one sheet. Such drawings were called "flex"

Spirals and springs

Spirals, springs and other similar forms are often drawn by people with an egoistic and ambitious character. They can be vindictive and angry, especially when others do not recognize them as a leader. The drawings themselves symbolize rotation around one’s own person, perceived as something very significant. Spirals are often drawn by influential people - " the mighty of the world this" - or those who consider themselves as such.

Wavy and peaked lines

Wavy and "peak" lines are most often a temporary phenomenon caused by circumstances that are currently out of control. The sharper the peak, the more difficult the problem. As the problem is resolved, the lines acquire an increasingly rounded shape and sometimes turn into springs, meaning: the circumstances that caused the crisis are left behind.

Corners and trees

Corners, trees and similar signs indicate that a person is busy with something that he does not like, but he is forced to do it due to certain circumstances. Hence sharp corners, often combined into one line-chain. This type of automatic drawing may be associated with a person’s internal lack of composure and “ruffiness,” which causes him to have difficulties communicating with people of a different type.

Stars and fireworks

Stars and fireworks are depicted by individuals striving to achieve something in life: happiness, fame, wealth. But they can also indicate daydreaming, a penchant for flights of thought, etc.

Flowers and leaves

Flowers, especially if they are drawn in a sweeping manner, speak of a romantic nature, sensuality and a penchant for fantasy and exaggeration. The more rounded the shape of the petals and leaves, the more these qualities manifest themselves in humans. Flowers with pointed petals or those shaped like claws and diamonds are usually drawn by people inclined to mysticism and the occult. They can also indicate nervousness and eccentricity.

Sun and clouds

The sun is a love of life and joy, a sign of a person looking optimistically into the future. And clouds appearing near the sun often signal some kind of obstacle that darkens life, especially if they are shaded or drawn together with rain.

Circles

Circles and generally rounded shapes, intersecting and touching each other, clearly indicate non-recognition and deprivation. A person who draws similar figures. strives to participate with everyone in some activity, but he is undeservedly (from the point of view of the author of the picture) ignored and deprived of friendship. Many circles mean melancholy, loneliness and, perhaps, unrequited love.

Lattices and meshes

A grid drawn with strong pressure means that a person feels like an animal driven into a corner. Each line is a rebuff, which, however, remains only on paper. From the point of view of character as a whole, the grille reveals a person who is not stupid, who lacks the determination to declare himself.

Chess cells

Chess squares are a sign of forgetfulness and short memory. The person drawing them constantly tries not to lose the thread of the conversation and at the same time thinks about the answer to the question asked much earlier. Each cell is an unspoken word, an unexpressed thought. Usually they draw a simple chessboard, but sometimes they make complex patterns from shaded squares, indicating inattention, perhaps inspired by boredom.

Houses and symmetrical figures.

Symmetrical figures symbolize neatness, prudence and love of order even in small things. The person who draws them is smart and knows how to defend his point of view. He clearly sees the task set for himself and will never do anything he doesn’t want to do, unless, of course, it is necessary to achieve the goal. Sometimes such a person can be very stubborn, and if you try to lead him off the intended “course,” you may regret it later.

WHAT DO THE DRAWINGS MEAN?

which we unconsciously draw

Have you ever wondered

what do the different pictures mean?

which we without hesitation draw on paper?

Parade of numbers

Those who like to draw numbers are only concerned with material values.

The first option is you figure out where and how you can make money.

Second, you are thinking about how to pay off your debts.

May there always be sunshine

Are the pages of the notebook decorated with the sun or garlands?

Paradoxically, your mood is by no means so rosy,

like these drawings.

You lack warmth, care and attention.

You dream of friendship and tenderness.

Want some advice?

Try to be around people more often in the near future.

Call your friends, go to the cinema or for a walk with them, sit in a cafe.

Then the sun will appear not only on paper, but also in your soul.

Oh, those figures!

Squares, diamonds, and triangles indicate clear goals and strong beliefs.

Such figures are usually drawn by people

who are accustomed to openly expressing their point of view.

They try not to give in to the enemy, have a practical mindset,

BUT THE OPINION OF GERMAN PSYCHOLOGISTS

German specialists from the Institute of Psychology in Bonn spent a year observing how people behaved

communicating on the phone or attending production meetings.

It turned out: two-thirds of conversational callers and half of meeting participants draw some kind of

figures. After testing, it turned out that this was not accidental. Drawings are not just scribbles,

and symbols reflecting state of mind people, and these symbols come from the depths of the subconscious.

People spit them out automatically when they move a pencil over paper, without thinking about the essence.

But psychologists have learned to decipher the hidden meaning of images.

For example, Pushkin loved to draw faces and figures of people in the margins. And this is a clear sign of sociability

and ease of life, increased sociability and dynamism. Such people look at life simply,

but at the same time, they are characterized by considerable wisdom in life. John Kennedy always drew

on scraps of paper there are pointed sailing boats, which, according to experts, indicates great energy,

perseverance and considerable sexual power. Boris Yeltsin, they say, while talking with his subordinates, drew

straight intersecting lines, which characterizes him as a straightforward and stubborn person,

causing irritation to others and conflicting not only with others, but also with oneself.

In general, people are not so diverse in their scribbles. There are only 8 main “plots”.

1. Spirals, circles, wavy lines

Other people's problems don't bother you too much or even bother you. If you are forced to take care of other people's affairs,

then you try to end them as quickly as possible, because all your attention is in the present moment

focused on oneself. You may be going through a mild crisis. If you notice

when you start drawing spirals, keep in mind: now you need to take special care of yourself,

so as not to flare up. Many circles mean melancholy and loneliness.

2. Flowers, sun, garlands.

You are a vulnerable person with a huge imagination. But your soul is not so happy at all,

as it may seem. Quite the contrary. Most of all, you dream of friendship and tenderness, and thoughts

that are spinning in your head, involuntarily transfer it to paper: “Pay attention to me!”

Hurry up to visit good friends, or at least try to be there soon

among people. Those little things in life that other people will pass by without paying special attention to them,

may cause you distress, worry or anxiety

3. Grids

You feel like you are in a risky or awkward situation.

Every decisive, bold line is an attack that you hesitate to take. If in the end

you circle your drawing - this means that the problem is over, at least externally.

You most often tend to swallow resentment and irritation. And this is fraught with danger:

Frustration builds up in your soul and you feel more and more unhappy.

You lack the determination to make yourself known.

4. Patterns like wallpaper

Sharp corners and smooth ovals are combined into a motif that is repeated ad infinitum. This pattern suggests

that you are bored, tired of a telephone conversation or a meeting, or maybe even your whole way of life.

You can start with a trifle: say, do something extravagant, something that you only dared to do before.

in dreams. This will destroy the monotony that has such a depressing effect on you.

5. Crosses

Women usually give them the appearance of jewelry, while men have more strict outlines. But in both cases they

express a feeling of guilt that most likely arose during a telephone conversation.

Something is weighing you down: either you reproach yourself, or your interlocutor reproached you. We definitely need to discuss the reason.

True, not necessarily right away. Otherwise, you will have to suffer for a long time.

6. Primitive people

This image is a sign of helplessness or a desire to evade some responsibility.

People usually draw little people at the moment when they should have said a decisive “no”

but they cannot bring themselves to say the word. So the little man should be taken as a warning

and tell yourself: “Don't give up! Refuse, otherwise you will later lament your own weakness!”

7. Chess fields

Apparently, you find yourself in a very unpleasant, or at least difficult, situation.

You dream of a clear and reliable path that will lead you out of it. Nothing should be done at this time

hide or suppress. If such images appear frequently, then you are most likely

you suffer from hidden complexes.

8. Squares, triangles and other geometric shapes

You won't be fooled easily. You have clear goals and beliefs. You almost never hide your opinion.

Rarely experience fear of your opponents, competitors and bosses.

The more angular the geometric shapes, the more aggressive you are, although this is not always noticeable outwardly.

But aggressiveness fetters your imagination and does not allow you to relax.

Try to look at things more simply.

Don't conflict over trifles.

Try to suppress your ambitions.

There is probably no person who, at least sometimes during a telephone conversation or at a boring meeting, does not draw strange figures in the margins of his diary. Have you noticed that these figures are often repeated? Look through your notebook, you can find a lot of interesting things there - strange curls, hearts, spirals, little people, etc. These mechanical drawings can tell a lot about their author.

Spontaneous drawings are a great way to learn something new about a person, because at the moment when they appear on paper, we are controlled by the subconscious, and it is this that hides true human fears, complexes and desires. You just have to look carefully at your own scribbles, and you will be able to understand exactly what qualities do not allow you to grow in your career and why lately It is especially difficult for you to listen to long stories about other people's problems.

Personal signatures

They are most often depicted as rather self-centered natures. They think about themselves more than anyone else. All their thoughts revolve around one person - themselves. This is especially obvious in cases where entire sheets of paper are covered with signatures. If this description suits you, think about it: are you paying too much attention to yourself? Perhaps those around you also deserve to be remembered at least occasionally?

Hands folded on your chest indicate your hostile attitude, while those hidden behind your back indicate your ability to stand your ground to the end.

Little people

The standard “stick, stick, cucumber” scheme suggests that you are not averse to building the Berlin Wall around yourself and not letting anyone get close. If the little man is also small, then most likely you feel like a helpless, small pawn. If the person looks quite realistic, pay attention to the details. Hands folded on your chest indicate your hostile attitude, while those hidden behind your back indicate your ability to stand your ground to the end. If your arms are spread out to the sides, then this signals that you have lost control over your life. Now about the face: if it is carefully drawn, then it is very important to you what others think of you. This especially applies to appearance. By the way, large ears also indicate dependence on the opinions of others, while small ears (or their complete absence) indicate a reluctance to listen to other people’s opinions.

Hearts

They are painted by people overwhelmed with feelings. They sincerely love life and the people around them, but they cannot always express this openly. Either because of the fear of being rejected, or because of the fear that they will not be understood. They simply need to broadcast their emotions outside, but they control themselves with all their might, which is why they are often unhappy.

Hearts are drawn by those who love life and the people around them, but are not always able to openly declare this.

Asterisks

Such drawings show that their author really wants to be the center of attention, he dreams of recognition, admiration and worship. However, star is different from star, and if yours has too many rays, and some seem to be distant from it, then most likely we are talking about a depressive state.

Houses

With windows, roof and porch - everything is as it should be. As a rule, they are drawn by those who love order, clearly plan their day, expenses, vacations - in general, everything that can be planned. These people have clear goals and know how to achieve them. You have to try very hard to lead them astray or convince them on any issue.

Flowers, sun

If you draw these figures during a telephone conversation, then most likely you enjoy this conversation. In addition, while chatting with a friend about nothing, you can dream about a wonderful evening that you will spend with your loved one, and also draw mini-landscapes. Such drawings come from the pencils of optimistic and kind natures.

If you draw these figures during a telephone conversation, then most likely you enjoy this conversation.

Spirals

And also circles and waves mean a certain fixation in an emotional sense. Perhaps you are going around in circles with your problems and can’t solve them. At the same time, other people’s difficulties do not bother you one bit, and you can easily lash out at someone who starts telling you about their troubles.

Geometric shapes

Squares, triangles, diamonds - all these angular figures are characteristic of persistent people with clear goals and strong convictions. They control their every step and are sometimes too suspicious of others. Sometimes this vigilance really gets in the way of enjoying life, so it’s worth at least occasionally letting go of the situation and letting events take their course.

Animals

Based on which animal appears in your notebook, you can judge your emotional mood. In fact, everything here is simple, as in children's fairy tales: a hare or a squirrel - you need care, a fox - you are weaving intrigues, a lion - you feel like the best important person in your surroundings. The image of any other animal can also be easily interpreted with the help of parables and stories for the little ones.

Numbers

It is believed that they are drawn mechanically by those who are very concerned about the material side of life. It doesn’t matter whether you care about the amount of your salary, are going to take out a mortgage on an apartment, or want to pay off debts - if you constantly think about money, then the numbers will appear on paper more and more often.
