Letter “p” is related to the importance the individual grants to his material needs, his job and the way to relate to others. From the Psychoanalytical point of view, it is affirmed that letter P symbolizes the father image, it reflects how it is perceived and has assimilated the father image. The initials of the last name in the signature are also associated to the father image.
