What does your face shape say about you? Physiognomy - determining the character of a person by facial features

If you believe Chinese medicine, which is already over 3000 years old, by the appearance of a person you can determine not only a predisposition to various diseases but also the main character traits and approach to life. Modern researchers confirm this relationship. For example, Northumbria University in the UK found that people with high level testosterone, as a rule, have more wide faces and cheekbones - at the same time they are more assertive and aggressive in their behavior, which often helps them to take a higher position in the professional hierarchy.

Stand in front of a mirror, put your hair back and take a good look at your reflection - the exact shape of your face is sometimes difficult to detect on your own. Try this trick: draw on paper the lines that make up the oval of the face, so it will be much easier for you to determine which type of person you are.

The form: The width of your face is approximately equal to its length, and the face is widest at the cheeks.

Description: The owners of this type of face are kind, peaceful and friendly people who always put other people's interests above their own and do not give up even in difficult moments of life. You can safely trust them. Alas, often they themselves expect too much from others and do not receive sufficient returns for their efforts. Quite flexible, they easily adapt to the changing environment around them. They are distinguished by initiative and energy fuse when launching new projects. People with a round face are very sociable, they have many friends, they love new acquaintances. The only drawback: they are fickle in their affections, and narcissists are often found among them.

The form: Your forehead, cheekbones, and jawline are nearly the same width.

Description: One thing is for sure - this is an incredibly thoughtful, dreamy person, with a very rich imagination, who chooses to work in the creative field. Such people often change their outlook on life. One of their features is excessive impressionability and the habit of taking everything to heart. To implement Napoleonic plans in a quarry, they often lack "production capacity" and efficiency. They are constantly in the clouds. In life they are guided by intuition, which rarely fails them. People with an oval face love independence - submit strict rules discipline can be very difficult for them. They do not like it when life or a specific person puts them before a choice.

The form: Your forehead, cheekbones and jawline are almost the same width and you have a square lower jaw.

The form: The length of the face is about twice as long as its width, and the distance between the temples and the lower cheekbones is the same in their widest part.

Description: Self-confidence of these people can only be envied. Just watch how she doesn't turn into arrogance. If you belong to this type, then you can be trusted - you always keep your word. Pretty loyal, which makes you good friend, whose location is constantly sought to achieve. Excellent thinkers, they tend to think too much about material things. But in love - they are rather closed, they rarely admit their true feelings. The habit of “keeping everything in yourself” can negatively affect health - emotions accumulate inside and give rise to strong internal tension. So let them out!

The form: Characterized by a wide forehead and a narrow chin.

Description: The life of people with a triangular face is guided by intuition. Such personalities completely lack consistency in actions and manifestations of feelings - it is quite difficult to trust them with responsible affairs. At the same time, they perceive everything that happens around them very easily and are able to quickly adapt to any situation, they are cautious, deceptive and cunning. Observant and curious, have an excellent memory. Women with this type are distinguished by a special sensuality, passion, a great force of attraction - the opposite sex simply cannot resist. Such ladies constantly fluctuate between material gain and the spiritual side of the issue, choosing alternately one or the other.

The form: Your face is wide at the cheekbones or temples, the forehead is low and narrow, the face tapers to a sharp chin.

Description: This face shape indicates that a person likes to keep everything under his own vigilant control and always acts in a certain way. He performs any work conscientiously and efficiently, paying great attention to the smallest details. People of the word, they can quickly win over anyone. These people are indeed often endowed with a subtle mind and a natural sense of tact. But! Be alert. At the same time, "rhombuses" are sharp on the tongue and can greatly prick the opponent in a conversation if he misunderstood him.

The form: Your forehead is wider than your chin, your cheekbones and forehead are the same width, and your face tapers towards the tip of a pointed chin.

Description: This face shape indicates that we have a person with incredible inner strength, strong-willed, but at the same time quite closed. Assertive and purposeful, it can be difficult for him to find like-minded people. Conservative, eschews new ideas, always follows a clear established rules. Their life resembles a well-defined military strategy. Random, unplanned events very rarely occur in their fate. However, this does not prevent them from expressing themselves in creativity, whether it be music, design or painting. "Hearts" are charged with energy and simply cannot sit still. Do not be afraid to step out of your comfort zone from time to time - this will do you good and make the world around you more colorful. Such people are prone to self-admiration.

As they say - do not drink water from your face, appearance is not the main thing, do not judge by appearance, but reality says otherwise. It is not for nothing that people in appearance choose their mate for life, because in nature itself the influence of the spiritual world of a person on his appearance is laid down. And there is a direct connection between positive qualities man and his external beauty. Flaws on a person's face indicate a crack in his character.
However, beauty is too subjective. So each person appreciates in other people a certain set of personality traits that can be seen in appearance. That is why lovers often look so much alike.

The ideals of beauty are primarily in harmony, an image that inspires confidence and tranquility. So the harmonious balance of the middle zone (from the eyebrows to the tip of the nose) testifies to the orderliness of the psyche. The correct forms of the lower zone (upper lip, jaw, mouth, chin) speak of a balanced character. Of course, not all people are perfectly harmonious, meek and virtuous, therefore it is the external image that determines our sympathy for this or that person, depending on our own inclinations and character traits.

Often people who have been together for a long time do not know much about each other and cannot understand the reasons for the strange behavior of their friends or relatives. But each person is a unique creation of nature and external signs can indicate what to watch out for or which people to avoid. So, for example, people with a triangular face are not prone to affection and devotion. It is believed among physiognomists that among spies and traitors, most of all people with a triangular face shape.

Ears are a very important feature in physiognomy. In their configuration, they resemble a human embryo, and experts see great meaning in them. If the lobe is sagging, it speaks of spiritual freedom.

To analyze the shape of the face in the second way, you will need a measuring tape, a sheet of paper, a pen. Follow these instructions:

  1. Make notes on paper: “forehead”, “face length”, “jaw”, “cheeks”.
  2. Take a measuring tape and start calculating.
  3. Measure the distance from one cheek to the other along the top of the cheekbones. Measure from outer corner one eye to the same point in the other. The resulting number is the width of the face, enter it opposite the word "cheeks".
  4. Run a measuring tape from the widest part of the jaw to the end of the chin. Multiply the resulting number by two, write the result opposite the word "jaw".
  5. Attach the measuring tape horizontally to the widest part of the forehead at the hairline, note the resulting figure for yourself and write down the number next to the word "forehead".
  6. Take a measurement from the middle of the forehead (from the hairline) to the highest point of the chin. This will be the length of the face.

After the calculations, analyze the records. Use the information below to determine your type:

Distinctive features

Oval/rectangular

  • Both options are smaller in width than in length.

triangular/rhomboid

  • Wide forehead, prominent cheekbones.
  • Measurements of the width of the jaw, forehead, cheeks are completely different.

The third method is somewhat different from the previous ones. Take measurements according to the following anatomical landmarks:

  1. horizontally in the middle of the forehead;
  2. horizontally along the lower line of the eyes;
  3. along the upper line of the lips;
  4. vertically from the top of the forehead to the bottom - the chin.

Record your results. Analyze them:

  • If measurement 2 is 45-90% of measurement 4, then the type is triangular.
  • If the indicators are equal, you have a square or round shape.
  • Almost equal results of measurements 1, 2 and 3 indicate a square or rectangular type.
  • If indicators 2 and 3 are less than or equal to measurement 1, then the shape is heart-shaped.
  • If the values ​​in points 1 and 3 are less than the number in point 2, then you have an oval or diamond type.
  • If the result of measurement 3 is much higher than the values ​​in points 1 and 2, the type is trapezoidal.
