What Your Doodles and Drawings Mean

The doodles and drawings we make absentmindedly can indicate your state of mind, your subconscious emotions and can give clues as to what’s to come.

Where You Doodle and Draw

The CENTRE of a page – Drawing in the centre of a page indicates that you are an extrovert and enjoy being the centre of attention.

The RIGHT side of a page – Doodling on the right side of the page indicates a longing to travel and/or to escape a current relationship or situation.  If the pen or pencil strokes are strong and direct it may indicate that major changes are necessary.

Clouds – Doodling grey or dark clouds can indicate deception and/or hidden things.  If you are in a very positive frame of mind whilst doodling and drawing clouds, it is a message that good tidings and new blessings will be revealed to you shortly.  As the saying goes, ‘every cloud has a silver lining.’

Curves – Doodling curves indicates a heightened psychic ability and strong intuition.

Faces – Doodling happy faces often indicates inner feelings of joy and harmony   -  although sometimes, given circumstances, it can indicate feelings of wishing to be someone other than yourself and wanting a new or different life and/or lifestyle.
