The face of a Wood type will often, although not necessarily, show indications of chronic anger or assertiveness. These may be two vertical lines between the eyebrows, tension of the lower eyelid and a tense jaw.

The eyes are the sense organ associated with Wood. Sometimes the eyes of a Wood type can have a hesitant quality, not quite looking at you and coming and going. Often, however, the Wood type’s eyes are quite intense. They may almost be fierce, indicating some held-in anger, but they may just be very direct in the way they look.

Some Wood types have a body characteristic of compression or having been squeezed. This has probably resulted from holding in anger. If we imagine squeezing ourselves inwards or holding ourselves back it will make our body appear to be ‘packed in’ or compressed. Wood types may also look tense and have a tight musculature. Hilary told us:

When I get frustrated I often feel tense under my ribs and also in my neck and shoulders. At those times I would love a good strong massage to loosen up.

Many Wood types use gestures such as pointing their index fingers, jerky movements or using closed fists. Some less assertive Wood types, however, will have very few gestures.

These observations help us to assess whether someone is a Wood type.
