Closed Ovals are naturally discreet without being secretive. They use tact and diplomacy in verbal expression.

Tied Ovals have loops on both sides which overlap. This person is very cautious and guarded with verbal revelations.

Knotted Ovals are more extreme in formation and more verbally guarded than tied ovals. The more knotted the oval, the more secretive the writer. These people are inhibited and defensive verbally. This can lead to lying.

Stabs in Ovals are a sign of a biting, sarcastic tongue. These writers manage to hurt people with their sharp words.

Explosive Ovals are made by those who have repressed their feelings to such a degree that they will suddenly explode in hostile, angry verbal tirades. These ovals are narrow and filled with ink.

Upside-Down Ovals are a reversal of the usual direction. As such, they indicate indirectness of approach and manipulative tendencies. Sometimes the intention isnt to deceive, but the insincerity results in misunderstanding.
