Once again back to some basics. We covered the baseline and slant so far and now we approach the zones. What is on the baseline or line of reality. This concerns our daily life. These letters are the a, c, e, i, m, n, o. r, s, u, v, w, and x. The letters reaching above this area are reaching into the Conscious or intellectual area. These letters are the b, d, j, k, l, and the t. Conversely parts of letters that go into the area below the baseline are going into the subconscious or instinctual area. Psychologist refer to this as the Id the Ego and the Subconscious. These letters are the g, j, q, p, y, and z. If you noticed I left out the f. The reason for this is it is only letter going through all three zones. Therefore, we use this letter to indicate the balance of the personality. You don't have to look at EVERY letter every time because if you look at the writing as a picture you will see what is standing out enough to catch the eye. A few things that jump out are No capitals. Now everyone learns that capitals indicate a word that is important and usually a name, however, many young people of today do not use capitals this is an indictment of the quality of the education they received but also may indicate a self-esteem problem. A k hump, the part on the right of the stem, that goes higher than most of the letters next to it show a rebel or one who usually is in trouble fighting to defend someone else. The height of the t or d stem is an indication of several things. If it does not extend much or not at all above the mid zone they do not have plans for their future and or may have an ego problem. One that is above the mid zone and has a t crossing above the mid zone is good. However, if the t goes way above the other letters and has a t crossing near the top of the stem the writer may be vain and arrogant. While a t of any size with the t crossing above the stem indicates a dreamer with "pie in the sky" ideas. I don't want to get off the subject of zones and into letters too much yet so I will leave you at this point and hope to get responses and or questions in return.
