'Mysteriously Weird' Signature
Of White House Chief of Staff



HANDWRITING ANALYSIS of JACOB “Jack” LEW

The signature of Jacob “Jack” Lew is among the most mysteriously weird (with goofy overtones) that we have seen in a quarter century of graphology.
It looks like an unraveled Slinky, and like most signatures is not necessarily indicative of the person who wrote it, but more likely the crafted image they want others to perceive.
But who wants others to see him/her as a Slinky, unless that’s what he/she actually may be, psychologically speaking? It may be enlightening to know how that spiral signature came to be crafted by Mr. Lew. Is there a symbolism in it that most people cannot fathom? Is it a private joke?
The overall loopiness generally signals hyper-secrecy. He will carry secrets to his grave. He is also secretive about who he may actually be. He keeps his profile extremely low.
Yet at the same time he draws a series of large, connected loops for his name, which looks so odd (or whimsical) that it draws immediate attention to himself. This contradiction must make for some funny moments in his personal and professional life.
His imagination is probably as relatively large as the loops, and much of his energy is expended in the realms of abstract thinking, perhaps even religion. The oversized loops warn that he might blow certain matters out of proportion.
His thinking is both objective and methodical; he must connect all the dots. He is capable of taking the initiative and he desires responsibility. The vertical slant of his writing signals a person who thinks before he acts.
